Go into the tunnel where you previously encountered the demon

From Create Your Own Story

"Let's go back to the secret tunnel," you say. "At least I know the area well."

Following your directions, Monica drives the Jeep as close as she can to the tunnel entrance, then the two of you hike the rest of the way. Entering the cave, you lead the way, following the red chalk marks you made seemingly so long ago.

After several twists and turns, you hear footsteps. Many footsteps. Rounding a corner, you see an army of skeletons, armed with swords and spears, marching towards you.

Drawing your pistol, you fire a shot into the nearest skeleton's head. It makes a neat hole in its skull, but the skeleton keeps coming, sword in hand and bony grin on its face. Irritated, you kick the sword out of its hand, catch it neatly, decapitate the skeleton, and push the headless bones over. Another skeleton approaches you, but you simply backflip kick its head off and push it over too.

Meanwhile, Monica loads an explosive bolt into her crossbow. She takes aim and fires. The explosive does its lethal work, blowing most of the skeletons to bits, leaving only three standing. You slice and dice the first two into bits with your new sword. The last skeleton turns and begins running away, but you pick up a spear and hurl it at the bony undead. The spear impacts its spine, shattering it and sending the skeleton to the ground in pieces. You take a deep breath as your heart rate slowly returns to normal and look over at your female companion. "Nice work, Monica."

"You too, Katarina." You smile at each other.

You heft the sword in your hand. "I think I'll keep this. Much more effective against skeletons than a pistol."

Monica takes a sword for herself too. "This will come in handy if I run out of arrows."

You continue making your way deeper into the caverns, still following your chalk marks, Monica right behind you. When you come to a fork, she suddenly taps you on the shoulder. "Listen, Katarina. I think I heard whispers from that direction." She points to the path leading away from the direction indicated by your mark.

You pause, tilting your brunette head. "Are you sure, Monica? I don't hear anything."

"I think so," she says. "What do you want to do?"
