INT. CAVE - TUNNEL
Paige, Dale, and Hannah continue down the tunnel. Paige walks by an entrance that opens up into a large cavern that stretches out. Paige has the rifle over her shoulder.
At the center of this room is something that looks like an altar, a kind of rock staging area with a stone burial chamber on it.
There are small fire pits in the corner of the room. They're stone tables with a brass bowl with something burning in it.
There are also several other exits to tunnels at all sides of the room.
PAIGE
This has gotta be the place.
DALE
The map says we have to cut through this cavern.
INT. CAVE - CAVERN - TOMB - CONTINUOUS
Dale looks at his phone while looking at the multiple exits in the cavern. Hannah and Paige look around.
DALE
Shit, there's a lot of exits. The picture isn't that clear about which one takes us to the way out.
Dale looks closer at the exits.
Paige steps onto the stage area and approaches the burial chamber in the middle of the room. Hannah joins Paige at the burial chamber.
HANNAH
(To Paige)
What do you think's in it?
PAIGE
It's gotta be the thing that was depicted on that map.
HANNAH
You mean the thing that you think is the source of all this?..
PAIGE
You think it's the bones of Satan or something?
HANNAH
Maybe it's literally Pandora's box, maybe it contains all the evil spirits of the world.
PAIGE
Dare me to open it?
Dale finds the exit they should take.
DALE
Um, ladies? I think we should be going now.
Paige starts pushing the concrete lid to the side, Hannah starts helping her.
DALE (CONT'D)
I found the exit.
Dale approaches Hannah and Paige as they push the lid off.
Inside the burial chamber is NIZHONI (15) she's a pretty girl with pale white skin with native American features. She's wearing an immaculate white robe and framed by fossil artifacts with her hand across her chest.
