Virgo's POV
"Holy sh*t, it's absolutely fascinating here....." Sagittarius trailed off as we walked through an ancient door. The cavern is big and spacious, having enough space to fit the whole universe behind it. "It really is..." Pisces agreed without thinking as he darted his eyes in all the directions possible, observing the view.

I just stayed quiet and continued walking, towards the abyss of the endless sight of grey and black. The stalactites and the stalagmites made this already fascinating cavern even more alluring, with the sound of dripping water in sync with our footsteps. "This place totally.... rocks!" Gemini grinned as he stared at a batch of sapphires stuck inside of rocks. "It sure is!~" Libra hummed. This place is pretty peaceful for now, but one thing bothers me; What is this aura around us?

I looked over at Heze and as I expected, he is as tense as ever, sensing the aura around us too. Leo is getting better, able to walk on his own but Heze insisted on supporting him. 'Virgo...' I get it Villa, you'll disappear soon. 'I would love to watch your journey but...' You need to help me with the ancient ruins... 'You should be fine! I promise.'

"What are those thingies there?" Sagittarius questioned as her eyes locked on ahead. I cut off my conversation with Villa and looked ahead, Sagittarius words perked up my interest. Sagittarius, if I'm right, she have absolutely quintessential vision, absolutely the best of the best. "Oh? What is it Sagittarius?" I asked with a hint of interest.

"Uhhh... Three door thingies?" She questioned as she squinted her eyes and furrowed her brows with a frown and concentrated. "Yeah, three doorways I think." "As expected of Sagittarius!" Aquarius beamed happily, "this story is finally moving forward~!" I fixed my eyes at front and stared, observing on the way. I walked a bit faster and felt my eyes glow, releasing it's talent. Soon, soft clicks and whirring can be heard inside my head.

"Hm. Interesting..." I muttered as we continue walking forward. "Uhh... Is it just me that I heard some machinelike sound?" Libra asked cautiously as she glanced back and forth. 'I don't hear anything' can be heard, except the air element members, which looked at each other in unease. I couldn't help but smile slightly, the world beyond that place really is interesting.

Sagittarius' POV
"This is what I was talking about." I stated after a few minutes of walking. Sh*t, this place is awesome but not so awesome right now. Right now we are facing three gigantic doors that have little or no swag whatsoever. : ( "Fair enough. From the looks of things, there are ancient ruins on it as well.." Heze said, looking at the symbols. "Pyxis, do you mind reading it?" Virgo asked. Pyxis stared at at Virgo questioningly before giving her a knowing nod and started reading.
