Io(PS, she doesnt notice the others who are awake)
I blinked open my eyes to see a dark sky. I sat up and looked around; Dani, Gray, Lucy and Asuka were asleep near by. Standing up, I transformed into a dragon and soared around in the air for a while. Soon though, air currents deposited me by the cave from yestereday. I quickly became a human again.
What if somebody was lft behind, like a scientist or something? I turned to leave but had a sense that something important was in that cave. I swiveled back around. A few steps closer. just a few more.
I was at the mouthe of the cave and started in. I followed the path that still reeked of blood. Soon I heard somebody else breathing heavily. Was there still somebody in the cave? I looked behind me and all around befor I realized it was my own nervous breaths echoing off the walls.
I kept walking but tripped on something soft. I pulled myself back up, rubbing my cheeck and felt around the ground. My hand touch a soft canvas matirial. A backpack!
Feeling around the floor again I found an old long spear the hunters were using for long distance fighting. I lit it on fire so i could see more than two feet in frount of me.
I opened the biggest pocket first. Just some clothes and a pair of sneakers. The next pocket had some modern day medicien in it, including a bottle labeled "animal instinct." what was that? (btw, stuff that make Rika go beast, its a lab backback)
And finally, in the smallest pocket, I felt around think it was empty until the tip of my finger touched a cool metal. I clamped it in my hand and pulled out a tine key. It was gold but simple, and very small. It looked about the size for a jewelery box or something similar.
wait! could it be the key to THAT box??
