The Truth of the Lost Ruby

Chapter Four: Maire' Journal

"Wow Claire I think this is the place."
"Yea Marie the cave is just around the corner." Claire replied. After hours of walking here we are. The cave is right about here. I can't believe Claire really did know where she was going.
"Claire, we can't stay to long if we want to get back to our party on time."
"Marie, I promised we would be back in time. So we will." Claire is really very stubborn, when she puts her mind to something she won't stop. So we walked into the cave and it just felt right.
"This is right. I'm glad we came."
"Really Marie cause it feels wrong to me."
"What do you mean Claire,...." Then I fell down the hole in the ground.
"Marie are you ok?" Claire yelled.
"Yea. I'm in a cage of some sort though. Try to find another way down here."
"Ok Marie I'm coming."
