Just how long has this minotaur been here?

The sound of termites can be heard within with a feeling of fragility in the handle.Marsh tired took the ax that fell to the ground.
Fhian was behind, scrambling on her compass to try to find a way out of this stinky hole.Miles puts down the axe, the last thing he wants is to have a plague on him.
Looking around, he try to see if there's a way out.
Gideon rolls his eyes and under his breath mutters, "The only thing hotter than those flames was your attempt at humor." Clearly unimpressed by the attempt at humor.With the fires dying down, that observation was revealed to be true as Caron struggled to even remain conscious through all the pain before finally collapsing.
"Man, that's hot" Mayel joked, completely insensitive to this situation
"In case you're wondering, the sounds around us aren't from me so, maybe we should keep moving" Mayel suggested, noticing Caron still unconscious from the pain. He attempted to pick her up, only to struggle just to get her over his shoulder.He wouldn't linger on it, though, immediately making sure to tend to Caron's injuries as best as he could.
Gideon couldn't help but smirk at Mayel's comment. "Yeah, yeah. Your secret's safe.""In case you're wondering, the sounds around us aren't from me so, maybe we should keep moving" Mayel suggested, noticing Caron still unconscious from the pain. He attempted to pick her up, only to struggle just to get her over his shoulder.
"Man she's heavy... Don't tell her I said that"
Mayel simply nodded as they walked up the stairs, eventually coming across another hallway. There, they finally got a glimpse of their friends in the distance once moreGideon couldn't help but smirk at Mayel's comment. "Yeah, yeah. Your secret's safe."
He then stepped forward, offering to take over the burden. "Let me take care of this. You just... keep an eye out for any more surprises."
"I see them! The compass points to that direction!" Fhian exclaimed, running towards the path her reliable GPS pointed out. Her allies are back.Marsh looked at the others in the distance, a smile formed, he would finally have to stop worrying that only he and this girl were the only survivors.
"Huh, why do they seem so blurry..." Mayel commented before bumping into something physical. Rubbing his forehead, he felt it wet with water and realized that a thick wall of ice is between then, a few tens of meters in distance it seems"I see them! The compass points to that direction!" Fhian exclaimed, running towards the path her reliable GPS pointed out. Her allies are back.
Fhian tried helplessly to burn it or melt it away."Huh, why do they seem so blurry..." Mayel commented before bumping into something physical. Rubbing his forehead, he felt it wet with water and realized that a thick wall of ice is between then, a few tens of meters in distance it seems
(Back, you cannot melt this instantly. That's probably feat beyond 9-B)
"Well, I don't got anything that can melt ice so I'll just go ahead and set up camp" Mayel said before breaking off a loose piece of ice and placing it on Caron's forehead, hoping to wake her up."Hey! Body guard! Mind breaking this?!" Fhian quickly walked to Marsh and stood there crossing her arms.
"Well, I don't got anything that can melt ice so I'll just go ahead and set up camp" Mayel said before breaking off a loose piece of ice and placing it on Caron's forehead, hoping to wake her up.
"I'M NOT TALKING TO YOU, piece of shit!" Fhian shouted, looking at Marsh."Now, where did I put that ration bag..."
"Heh, rude much?" Mayel commented, still looking for the bag."I'M NOT TALKING TO YOU, piece of shit!" Fhian shouted, looking at Marsh.
"Good! Just keep hitting it!" Fhian made chains from four corners of the side of the wall, reeling it back as she charges a fire arrow. "Hey! Illusion guy and Sweet Carolina! I'm firing a giant arrow! Move to the side so you won't get it when Marsh is done chopping this shit away!!" she shouted again, reeling back the makeshift ballista back.Marsh take his ax out and start hitting it with force, he wanted to do progressive damage so that the ice could be melted with a small explosive arrow charge after a time.
"Welcome back." Gideon'd replied, letting her gather herself at her own pace."Wha, ugh..." Caron said, just starting to regain her consciousness
"Hey! Are all of you listening?! Don't blame me if this arrow goes through you! I already warned!""Welcome back." Gideon'd replied, letting her gather herself at her own pace.
"Sure, sure. We're out of the way." Gideon replied, as he positioned himself to ensure he was clear of the impending arrow's path."Hey! Are all of you listening?! Don't blame me if this arrow goes through you! I already warned!"
After doing enough damage with his axe, Marsh got into position, it was time to use the explosive arrow.
"FIRE IN THE WALL!!!" she shouted, as if to signal she's about to shoot it. Henceforth, a fire arrow rushes forth and attempts to pierce the wall."Sure, sure. We're out of the way." Gideon replied, as he positioned himself to ensure he was clear of the impending arrow's path.
A chunk of ice was blown off. Presumably with 2 or 3 more, she may be able to do just that"FIRE IN THE WALL!!!" she shouted, as if to signal she's about to shoot it. Henceforth, a fire arrow rushes forth and attempts to pierce the wall.
"I'm reloading!! Just keep your distance, 'kay?" shouted Fhian as she loaded another fire arrow, reels back and shouts "Fire!!"A chunk of ice was blown off. Presumably with 2 or 3 more, she may be able to do just that
Gideon could see the tension escalating and decided step in, positioning himself between Caron and Mayel.A chunk of ice was blown off. Presumably with 2 or 3 more, she may be able to do just that
"You, you said something about r-rations" Caron said, still dizzy from her experience.
"Must've lost it in the fire chamber, or was it the junkyard? Couldn't tell" Mayel replied.
"Y-You what?!"
"I-I knew I sh-shouldn't trust you all! I tr-trusted you with one thing! And you f*cked that up!" she said as she struggled to even stand.Gideon could see the tension escalating and decided step in, positioning himself between Caron and Mayel.
"Easy now." His voice calm but firm, "We've got a wall of ice to deal with. Let's save the heat for that, shall we?"
"You're really... bickering over a ration bag?" Clearly not in the mood for their squabbling."I-I knew I sh-shouldn't trust you all! I tr-trusted you with one thing! And you f*cked that up!" she said as she struggled to even stand.
"Now now sister, that's just not right. It's a group effort!" Mayel replied casually.
"Look, I'm sure she's just a little loopy from waking up on the wrong side of the bed. Let's just knock her out again and-" Mayel said as he extended his hand. In her barely conscious state, Caron interpreted this act and his last line as an attack, her breathing fastened as she quickly and efficiently reached for her sword and raised it near the performer's neck."You're really... bickering over a ration bag?" Clearly not in the mood for their squabbling.
"ALRIGHT! I'M FIRING ANOTHER SHOT!" shouted Fhian through the wall as she pulled back, reeled in the fire arrow- one with more charge and flame than before- and fired it, launching her out a few feet due to the sheer recoil, before catching herself before her clothes get dusted- "We don't want that" she thought, hanging on the ceiling with a chain."Look, I'm sure she's just a little loopy from waking up on the wrong side of the bed. Let's just knock her out again and-" Mayel said as he extended his hand. In her barely conscious state, Caron interpreted this act and his last line as an attack, her breathing fastened as she quickly and efficiently reached for her sword and raised it near the performer's neck.
"I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO TO ME!"
With that, the ice wall finally broke, allowing them passage to their teammates. At a good time too"ALRIGHT! I'M FIRING ANOTHER SHOT!" shouted Fhian through the wall as she pulled back, reeled in the fire arrow- one with more charge and flame than before- and fired it, launching her out a few feet due to the sheer recoil, before catching herself before her clothes get dusted- "We don't want that" she thought, hanging on the ceiling with a chain.
"No, n-no! Wh-what am I doing?" Caron asked, her grip loosening as her hands trembled... which is pretty bad when they're holding a greatsword at someone's neckMash watched waiting for the wall to be destroyed, when the ice wall was destroyed, he would go check on his partner Caron.
"you...will be better" He say while trying to calm him down by putting his hand on his shoulders to try to help him deal with the situation he is currently going through."No, n-no! Wh-what am I doing?" Caron asked, her grip loosening as her hands trembled... which is pretty bad when they're holding a greatsword at someone's neck
Caron quickly swung her sword at the ground and away from everyone else, leaning over to her friend for support as she attempted to slow her breathing and calm herself down"you...will be better" He say while trying to calm him down by putting his hand on his shoulders to try to help him deal with the situation he is currently going through.
Marsh comforted his friend as best he could.Caron quickly swung her sword at the ground and away from everyone else, leaning over to her friend for support as she attempted to slow her breathing and calm herself down

Fhian was behind Caron, "You better f*cking calm down, piece of shit." she said seriously, "I have no time dirtying my clothes just for this worthless shit...""We need to go" Marsh ask to Fhian, to know if she would guide the group to the exist and can make Caron breath free air
"Alright, a-alright. I-I'm OK now" Caron said as she slowly got up and sheathed her sword, wiping the tears from her face.Fhian was behind Caron, "You better f*cking calm down, piece of shit." she said seriously, "I have no time dirtying my clothes just for this worthless shit..."
Marsh sighed after he see that Caron is a bit better now, he looked around more carefully to see if he could find a clue on this side."Alright, a-alright. I-I'm OK now" Caron said as she slowly got up and sheathed her sword, wiping the tears from her face.
"Let's just kill this f*cker and get this over with"

"Good thing y'all are on the same page as me!" Fhian shouted as she runs off, prompting others to follow her.Marsh sighed after he see that Caron is a bit better now, he looked around more carefully to see if he could find a clue on this side.
A silhouette can be seen behind them passing through another hallway, connected to the statue filled one Marsh and Fhian were just in"Good thing y'all are on the same page as me!" Fhian shouted as she runs off, prompting others to follow her.
Marsh tightened his grip on his axe, clearly thinking that the target was trying to surround them and attack.A silhouette can be seen behind them passing through another hallway, connected to the statue filled one Marsh and Fhian were just in
