The ducts are narrow, not something I want to be caught in unless I have to.
The professor remarks and eyes the man sized tunnels. Let us try one of those tunnels.
The professor will choose one of the tunnels that show marks.

The tunnels gets warm as you venture into the mid tunnel. The footprints disappears after some teen feet into it.
As you go several tunnels open up on left and right side, many of them with a faint hint of wind, you realize that the three starting tunnels must be intertwined between them self and tunnel ascending and descending. You decide to stay in this tunnel because Trujillo meant that this was a main one as it had extra reinforcement of the walls and opening in the wall to track the transport ducts.
Felix spots rats and mice in the tunnels as you go deeper into the hill. About an hour later you see a opening of the tunnel and you all enter a huge room in side the hill. The place must be at least 400ft in diameter, the ceiling almost 300ft above you drip big water drops as you enter. The room is a big sphere you realize with a 30by30 ft elevator in the very center going up to the abandoned fabric above you and deep into the ground. After some hrs taking a look at the place, Uribe find some tracks and Trujillo succeeded in identifying the transport duct that you had been following.
The footsteps entered a natural cavern, came out and where gone in the direction of a lonely tunnel, the dragging marks was nowhere to be found.
The dripping and the echo of it made a summing sound in the huge room as you pass the elevator you realize that it can impossible be in order as rust and grenish mud lies on the control unit and a big crate lies half way into it. The air is warm and humid and your all feeling slightly claustrophobic, but what was that? a rumbling?

You all lift your head and see several big rocks falling at you from the top of the big elevator. One of the three rocks almost hit Trujillo and almost simultaneous another two rocks hit Uribe pretty bad over his head and neck.
Felix spots a man reaching for something, he could not se what as the man had no light on him.
Behind you from one of the tunnels you hear a cracking noise.
*Felix success spot

Uribe!
The professor calls to the wounded man. Stop! we have firearms!
He calls to the man on the elevator and takes out his pistol, with his other hand he points his flashlight to the man, trying to blind him with a direct light.

You hear the second man talking to the fallen man Juan and Felix barely hear 'you...die...' 'no... ends'
A split second later you se the second man point at his companion and fires a bullet trough his head. Then he quickly run out of sight from Felix and Juan.
A moment later you hear a shot from behind the elevator and another shot and a third.
As the third shot falls, both Juan and Felix has moved to the back of the elevator seeing Trujillo pointing towards the north wall where some tunnels open up.
'I wounded him in the leg' 'he shot back at me as he disappear into the darkness towards the north'
A clear track of blood can be seen at the edge of the flashlights area.

Felix searches the body finding a hunting knife and a bag of salt. The gun is missing.
'I dont really know' 'i dont even know where exactly we are' 'down below the hill fabric someplace' 'someplace that is older then ancient' 'someone has been digging this tunnel for a long time'... 'what i do know is that if we take his body with us, we will have trouble explaining it' 'im afraid we will have to leave my good friend behind and rescue his remains at a later point
From the north wall comes a cracking sound.

Juan waits, ready to turn on his flashlight and blind the opponents while pointing his pistol toward them. He wants to see what they’ll do before he do something.
