[QUOTE="talien, post: 5678072, member: 3285"] [b]Curse of the Bone: Part 2 – The Crypt[/b] A crudely dug tunnel led from another old sewer to the floor of an old crypt. Hammer kicked open the door. There were two coffins in the crypt, and stairs led down. "Oh great—" began Hammer, but then a rustling noise alerted them to bigger problems. Loping down the hallway was death and its minions. The leader was a stooped creature sheathed in armor, over which lay the tattered remains of ancient robes of state. The creature's shriveled and tortured limbs teemed with writhing hordes of white spiders. The spiders moved over the creature's decayed body, crawling between the plates of its armor. Behind it half-stumbled eyeless corpses bursting with white spiders. Archive frowned. "Maybe we should have dealt with what was behind that door." "Yeah well too late for that now." Jim-Bean reached one hand out and pulled. The ceiling collapsed behind them, burying the thing in armor and its minions. "Did it ever occur to you that we may need to get out of here?" asked Hammer. "You won't be leaving," snarled Green's voice. He appeared out of thin air in the middle of the steps as more spider-ridden corpses shoved coffin lids aside. Jim-Bean wailed and clutched his head, falling to his knees in agony. Archive dug out his Elder Sign. "By the power of the—" Green smirked and pointed at Archive. His arms withered to blackened husks and he screamed, collapsing in shock. "And now for you!" Green pointed at Hammer, but he found himself staring down a barrel. The gunshot bucked his head and he flew backwards, smashing into the shambling corpses at the end of the hall. The collapsed tunnel behind them rumbled. Hammer kicked Jim-Bean to the side and dragged Archive out of the way as the rock that clogged the passage was violently ejected. The corpses that managed to regain their feet from Green's impact were instantly pulverized from the force. A giant had cleared its throat. Hammer ducked his head out to peer down the cleared tunnel. A foaming wave of white sloshed up one side and down the other towards them. "Spiders," muttered Hammer. "Jim-Bean, get up!" Jim-Bean blinked, clearing the mental cobwebs. "What happened?" "No time, we have to find an exit." Archive unsteadily rose to his feet. "Like that?" He pointed with his restored hand. The rock blast had blown open a previously covered tunnel. "It'll have to do! Go!" They clambered up the tunnel just as the bloated wave surged into the upper room. [/QUOTE]
