Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception (Nathan Drake x Sister!Drake!Reader)

Chapter 8: The Middle Way

"Looks like we'll have to squeeze through here." I said as we go down the little pathway. "All right, you three go ahead. I'll help Charlie." Nate said. "All right." Sully said as we come up to this very narrow walkway. Then Sully, Chloe and I start to make our way through the narrow gap and up to a large room then we see another narrow gap. "Oh wait, there's another passage up ahead." Sully calls out to Nate. "Just go on. I've got him." Nate calls out. "We'll light the way for you!" I said and we light up the room and make our way through that narrow gap.

We walked ahead for a few minutes but then I realized that Nate and Cutter were taking forever. I head back towards the large room and see that Cutter had ahold of Nate by the neck. "Cutter!" I exclaimed as I run over to him and jump on his back. "Oh shit!" Sully said as Chloe runs over to Cutter and tries to get his attention.

"Charlie! Charlie!" She calls out and Sully goes to Cutter's side and pulls out his gun.

"What're you--"

"Get back." Sully said to Chloe as he aims his gun at Cutter's head. "Don't!" Chloe said then she grabs Cutter face and pulls it up to face her. "Charlie, you're killing Nate. Okay, you gotta listen to me. You are killing Nate. Charlie!" She pleads and he shoves me off of him and he let's Nate go. I go over to my brother and check on him as he coughs and gasps for air.

"Hey, hey, hey...." I said, softly, to Nate as I help him up to his feet. "I got you." I said to him. "I'm all right..." he said, his voice a little croaky. As Nate catches his breath, Cutter looks over at us with worry then said. "Nate. Nate, Nate, I'm really sorry." Nate walks over to him and pats his shoulder. "We're even." He said as he coughs some more and picks up his dropped torch and lights it up. 

"Hold on--you weren't...you weren't gonna shoot me, were you mate?" Cutter asked Sully. Sully sighs and shrugs at this. "Like a rabid dog." He replied. "Wow..." Cutter said, astonished, as he looks over at Sully. "Let's try this again." I said. "I'll go first this time." Nate croaks. Then he goes over through the gap, Chloe and I follow him.

"Next thing you'll be putting a gun to the back of my head telling me about the rabbits." Cutter said to Sully as they come through the gap. "Hey, play nice, boys." I said to them. "Yeah, come on. You're almost through." Chloe assures them as Cutter gets out of the gap then Sully soon after him. "Come on, let's move it along. They'll be looking for us." Nate said and we walk through a tunnel and come upon a large room with a large round stone in the middle of the room.

It kinda looked like a large globe made out of stone. "Looks like this thing should spin, doesn't it?" I said as I point at the Earth stone. "This is more than just a crypt." Cutter said. "Yeah, the whole damn room looks like some kind of ancient device." Sully mutters.
"Where's my notebook?" Cutter asked. "You gave it to Talbot, don't you remember?" I said and he looks over at me, confused. "Wha? No I didn't." Cutter said. "Yeah, your gun too." Chloe said. "Ah, bollocks." Cutter grumbles. 

"We need to figure out how to get it spinning." Sully said as he looks around the room. "Look at this channel." Cutter said. "It looks like they were meant for water." I said as I point at the channels around the room. "I found a stairway." Cutter said and Nate looks over at him and runs over to him and they head up the stairs.

"See anything up there?" Chloe asked Nate and Cutter as we see them up.on a floor above us. Then I see Nate goes over to a statue and lights it on the back and a light projects onto the stone Earth. "They look like some of projections. They're marking positions on the globe." I said. "Let's get the other ones lit." Cutter said and Nate starts to light up all of the statues and more light projections appear on the globe.

"The beams don't line up with the globe." I said as I see Nate and Cutter leaving the platform then we head over to the back of the room and see Nate and Cutter spinning a couple of the cranks, making water flow through the channels. "I hate getting wet." Cutter said as Nate dives into the water and swims over to us. "Oh don't be such a sissy." Nate said and Cutter swims after him.
