Burn it

Trio walked carefully. Jake was guiding them. His tone was profound as if he knew the hidden danger. The slippery ground was all in all traps for them. Ahram tapped his feet on the ground in order to sense the difference. 

He could not feel hollowness then moved ahead. Sashi was also repeating same actions. Jake was using his senses to remain alert in the darkness. 

If any of two fell in the trap, he would immediately lit the grenade for necessary steps. It was impossible that they necessarily fell in the right place. So it depended on their luck too. 

"Try to consider the hollowness leaving some tremors with it. Only then tap it harder." Jake again explained. Ahram and Sashi were slightly fazed by his guidance. He did not look like inexperienced gamer child. 

Ahram followed his words and kept strict attention of the moment details of his actions. The second shredded skin was under their feet when Sashi tapped her feet on the ground. This part was not slippery instead hollow creating some unnoticeable tremors. 

It was highly likely that she might have missed it however it was Jake sensing like detailer. He stopped her there. "Come around. This place has tremors. Ahram will tap it and get ready for free fall, I will buzz grenade and jump along with Sashi after you give us gesture about the underground place." 

Jake fairly explained. He wanted to make sure that they were ready to fall in the right placement. If they could search the second part then it would bear fruit of their struggle. If not then they could move forward for the search. 

This was save side of the idea. Ahram did not mind because he could jump due to his profession. With his present profession the heights and the lowest points were not difficult to sprint up or down. 

Ahram tapped his feet on the ground little harder and fell inside. Jake lowered down to listen his details. Ahram stood up after free fall. He searched around in hurry and checked all possible paths. 

Jake was accurate. The underground placement was similar of another tunnel. It was leading toward two straight paths. The ogres used one path to secure the skin while they left the underground placement from the second path. 

There was no harm if they descend down because the ogres related with the first seal and the protection was gathered at the surface. They never imagined that the team members would split in two teams just to fulfill the task. 

They were oblivious about Jake and his actions. Junan, Orin, Albert and Clark were battling as if all team members were busy in mass killing. It created false perception for them. 

"The underground place is similar of the first mover where we found the first part. I guess we can search for it here." Ahram called Jake and spoke. Jake got the gesture and jumped. Sashi followed. 

They descended and got ready for the tiresome search. As Ahram pointed the place has similarity. Now they were sure that it was right mover for the search. 

It was strange and sort of unacceptable for them earlier and this again. The above surface was sinking in the darkness while the underground mover has some sort of light source. They could not understand, though they wanted to know the reason behind nevertheless they were short of time. 

"Which path we should check first?" Sashi asked. The nearer of their goal they reached the harder it seemed to fulfill. Sashi was no different. She felt that time was flying like free bird and they were getting confused in this last colony. 

"You can use arrow for this purpose. Listen its target or end point. If it did not meet end point that means the path has longer track ahead." Jake pointed the path. The underground tunnel was simple and it clearly defines the haste of the ogres. They built it in short time after knowing that Cobra failed to stop team members. 

Sashi nodded and released arrow. The arrow stuck with the end point and they heard the specific sound. They were glad to hear it. Ahram walked ahead and with just one small turn he could see the shredded skin. 

"Jake it is here." He called. Jake was going near the shredded skin however stopped because of system\'s warning. The skin was full of poison aura. 

It could poison them with mere breath. Jake gestured them to stay away and threw two grenades. The shredded skin caught on fire. They heard similar tremors. The part of the tunnel collapsed. They were confined and could not return back where they left the rest of team members instead there was second path open to them. 

"We cannot go back. How we will join with others?" Sashi asked worried. Jake saw the confined place. He was reluctant to put effort in clearing the trash. "We can first check the second path if it is confined then there is only one choice to remove the trash." Jake spoke. 

They agreed and walked ahead. At the surface the rest of team members faced earthquake because of the tremors. They understood that the other team was able to burn the second part. 

Junan was glad because it saved lot of time. "That little kid is unexpectedly genius. The things are way profound than we imagine sometimes." He commented. 

Albert opened shield because a gust of air went past them. The hidden Python breathed with the hatred. The reason was clear. The first seal broke with the task. It was sure that the seal would not open up. 

The ogres were crying with horrible tones. The sky was near to fell on their heads. The signs were pointing that the clouds would crush them down soon. There was sliver of light source after the first seal broke. 

The extreme darkness faded.. It was not that they could see clearly however they were not blind as before.
