[QUOTE="talien, post: 4921679, member: 3285"] [b]Operation Bravo: Part 5 – Down the Rabbit Hole[/b] The concrete culvert, which led into the earth heading towards the Hunt plant, was quite large, capable of allowing a human to stand upright comfortably. That's when they heard the odd noise. It was not easily describable—it sounded somewhat like an echoey clicking. The mechanical clicking rose and fell over time. A slow rush of water about two inches deep lapped at their heels. The culvert's walls were covered in a deep green moss up to about hip height. The water seemed to go in cycles—rising slightly in speed and depth every few minutes. "I don't like that sound," said Jim-Bean. They ventured further into the culvert. Eventually, the source of the ghostly, echoing clicking became clear. The contraption, connected by a series of thick wires to Sears Die-Hard battery, sat in the cave propped up on an overturned orange crate. The device seems to be the old innards of a radio rewired to some other purpose. Two other discarded Die- Hard batteries were dumped to the side of the tunnel. The machine spat out tiny clicks through a single, hand-wired speaker. The clicks increased or decreased with time; sputtering away in a sudden onslaught of noise, then just as suddenly fading to a barely audible click. "Geiger counter," said Hammer. "That explains the books in Potter's home." The culvert wound its way beneath what was once the Hunt Plant. The main tunnel led off into darkness. The water was knee deep, making movement both slow and noisy. In the distance, a low rush of water could be heard. After a hundred yards, the tunnel began to turn every fifty yards. "I don't like this," said Hammer, both pistols held up over his head, "you know I don't—" "Swim, I know, I know," said Jim-Bean. "But hopefully this current gets less as we get closer to the end of this, wherever it is. I don't have any SCUBA equipment in my duffel bag." Hammer didn't respond. Jim-Bean looked back over his shoulder, playing the head lamp back and forth over the brakish water. "Hammer?" He caught a glimpse of a red-green saurian-like head just above the surface. The light struck it full in the eye and the pupil shrunk. "Oh crap," said Jim-Bean as something hungry and fast lurched out of the water towards him. [/QUOTE]
