His visor highlighted the hallway, allowing him to see through the dark. Ten feet in front of him was a door, and it was slightly opened. Through the tiny crack Zane’s visor lit up the faintest amount of light.

"Awesome. So how'd you get caught in the trap? This some kind of puzzle room?"
-
“No, he was just oblivious enough to not notice an open rope on the ground an happened to walk right on top of it.” Dani said. “What?! No! It’s totally a puzzle room!”
-
"Well, let's have our AI scan the room and figure this out huh? Try not to step in any more traps yeah? Alfred, Scan the room." [b][u]At once sir.[/u][/b]
-
“The only doors in the room are the ones atop the balcony.” Dani would comment. “There are no other doorways.” As Zane scanned, he would see that the Merc’s A.I was correct.
-
"So, that must be the way Into the next room then. You got a way up?"
-
Jon pointed to the staircase Zane had seen when he entered the room. “We can just use the staircase. But I guess you can use your rocket boots or whatever you got.” He commented as he made his way to the steps.
-
[i]He followed behind Jon, keeping a brisk pace[/i] "Eh, doesn't hurt to walk. So why didn't you keep moving, why stay in this room?"
-
“Uh, The whole getting caught in a net thing didn’t exactly help my situation. Plus I was only actually caught in there for a few minutes before you came in.” Baker explained as the two got to the balcony. “After all, I-“ Suddenly, one of the doors at the end of the balcony opened, and a large cloaked figure stepped out, raising both his hands forward. “You gotta be flipping kidding me-“ The man suddenly unleashed an automatic barrage of ice crystals, shooting as fast as an automatic rifle towards Zane and Jon.
-
[i]Zane raised his ward to cover both him and Jon, the crystals floating harmlessly in the gravity field.[/i] "Let me guess, we can't kill this guy right?"
-
“Nowp!” Baker told Zane as he reached for one of the black pistols on his right hip. He held it to his side, and suddenly one of the magazines on his right leg flew into the gun. He took aim at the figure at the end of the hallway as the barrage of ice continued to fire. “Alright...when I say [i]drop it[/i], drop your shield for a second before putting it back up again, got it?”
-
"Yup, you got it. Just try not to get hit alright? Those crystals look like they could hurt."
-
“Ya...here’s hoping.” Jon said, his sights on the cultist. “Alright...Do it!”
-
[i]He dropped his ward, the crystals flying back at the cultist and allowing Jon to shoot.[/i]
-
The crystals scattered and smashed across the walls and floors, one cutting through the cultists leg. As this happened Jon fired as soon as the ward had dropped. A dart shot out from the pistol, and embedded itself into the ice users neck. The figure began to seizure as a few sparks of electricity gave off from him, before he dropped to the ground. However in this second of action more ice spikes flew towards the two delvers.
-
[i]Zane managed to raise his ward once again, the crystals once again floating in his gravity field.[/i] "Damn, what'd you shoot him with?"
-
“High powered stun dart! Makes them go into a shock and then coma. They usually wake up in a day or so, with one hell of a headache.”
-
"Impressive, so we good to move on then?"
-
“Ya, I’d say so. Not sure which one of these doors will take us to where we need to go though.” Baker commented. There were eight doors total, all identical in their visage.
-
[i]He dropped the ward which caused the crystals to drop, and walked up to the furthest door. He placed a hand on it, a faint blue glow wrapping around the handle.[/i] "Alfred, do a deep scan and see where this leads."
-
All Zane had picked up was a a small 10 by 10 room on the opposite side of the door. Meanwhile, baker walked to the other side of the balcony, closer to the staircase, and opened up the door on that end. “Nothing over here, just a bedroom.”
-
"Didn't sense anything important in this one either. What room did that cultists come out from?"
-
“Looks like the one just before the one you checked.” Baker said, checking the next room. Then he suddenly yelled. “SHIT!” He yelled as a blast of fire collided into his chest, sending him crashing through the railing of the balcony and onto the ground below.
-
"Damnit!" [i]Zane leapt over the balcony and landed next to Jon, his armor absorbing the impact.[/i] "You alright kid, still with me?"
-
“Yea...ya I’m good.” He said, wincing. “Shit, above you!” He yelled. As Zane looked to the balcony, he saw a man completely coated in flame, floating above the ground. Jon quickly got to his feet before the fiery wraith sent out a fireball at Zane and Baker, Baker sliding away from its intended target.
-
[i]Zane flipped his cape over himself, the flames dying out as they hit. He leapt up at the wraith, drawing his buster sword and swinging upward.[/i]
