Unponied: Drake's Transportation
The First Temple
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWalking into the darkness Drake started thinking, 'Okay, Marco once said that he got to Shambhala and found a door and took him to a place that had strange creatures' 'that explains about the talking pony' 'He found the three amulets, but when he opened the gate he found... Shit I guess I have to find out for myself' Drake sighs as he continues through the cave, all he hears is dripping water and crackling.
Drake turns to see if anything he missed and walks into a wall, he staggers back and sees a door in front of him. The door has a board on the door blocking something from opening the door, 'looks like someone tried to keep something in' Drake thinks. He grabs the board and pushes it up taking it off of the holder blocking the door and throws it over, Drake wipes his hands and looks over at the door.
As Drake opened the door, he found a lighted hallway. Drake looks at the torch in his hand, then throws it. 'I don't need that anymore' Drake thinks as he walks through the door and walks through the long hallway, he walks slow so he doesn't run into any traps. He makes it to the end of the hallway and puts his hand on the door, a sound of something triggering. Drake jumps back and Spikes came from the wall blocking the door, it slowly pulls itself back into the wall. 'Shit that was close' Drake carefully put his hand on the door and pulled back, nothing happened.
He opened the door slowly, and goes into the next room. As he enters the door shuts behind him, as he looks around the room. Drake sees a giant door with numbers on it 8, 0, 6, 2; a pedestal with buttons that has the numbers on it; and 3 stones with riddles on it. Drake studies the room and goes towards the stones, 'okay lets see' Drake thinks then aloud "It's not as high"(I don't know how to do riddles.) Drake writes the riddle in his journal and then moves on to the next one. "It only has the 3" Drake does the same thing, then looks at the third one. "it is the most common number" Drake writes that in his journal and goes over to the pedestal, "Okay, so lets go over this" Drake puts the book down in front of him with the numbers, "Alright so..." He reads the first riddle, "Okay then I'm guessing it's telling me it's not a high number so the eight is out" Drake reads the second one, "This probably means it only has three letters in it's name so 0 is out" then he reads the third one. "The most common number is 2" Drake doesn't hesitate to press the button with the 2 on it.
When he pushed the button the 2 on the door turns green and the door pushes out and separates opening the door. Drake grabs his book and puts it in his back pocket and jogs towards the door, as the door opens he could see one of the Amulets. He then smiles at the sight of it, putting a grin the size of a cat on his face. As the door opens completely, Drake walks up to the Amulet and picks it up off the stand. Drake thinks 'The Swan' Drake hears the door open behind him and a familiar voice "Not you again" Drake turns around to see Daring, She then tries to threaten Drake to make him hand over the Amulet. "You better step away from that Amulet if you know what's good for you." Drake then walks towards Daring, "And what are you going to do about it?" Drake acts like he is scared, "I will spare the embarrassment of having it taken off of you."
Drake then chuckles, then the ground starts rumbling. Daring then is pissed, "WHAT DID YOU DO?" Daring yells as they see the stand that was holding the amulet fall down as water broke down the wall behind the doors. "Oh no, RUN!" Drake screams as he points at the door, they both run out of the room and into the hallway and running away from the water chasing them. Drake rams into the door, flying it straight open. Daring runs in after him and Drake slams the door shut and puts the giant board on the holders, Drake backs up ready to run if it doesn't work. The door pushes forward but back in, sealing the water.
Drake then puts his hands on his knees in exhaustion, Daring then pushes Drake causing him to lose balance. Drake catches himself on the cave wall, He looks towards Daring as she pointed her hoof at him. "WHAT HAPPENED IN THERE?" The look on her eyes was on fire, Drake pushes himself off the wall. "How am I supposed to know, I just grabbed the amulet and it probably pulled something and released the water." Drake yelled back.
Drake didn't want to deal with this, he turned away from the door and walked towards the exit. But was stopped by the darkness filling the cave, "Shit" Drake walked over and grabbed the torch he had and lit it back up. "Where do you think your going?" Daring growls at Drake, Drake sighs and turns head towards her. "Can we talk outside instead of in a cave?" After he said that Drake looked at the door and it cracked, "Oh no, we better get moving"
Drake and Daring head out of the cave and they hear the door break open, but there was not enough water to get to them. "One great treasure hunter you are?" Daring says sarcastically, "shh" Drake puts his hand towards Daring and lifts a finger to shush her. "What?" Drake puts it back up "shush" Drake can hear a lot of stomping like a herd of buffalo, "Don't shush me..." Drake then puts his hands up towards her "Shut up, do you hear that?" Daring listens also, the sound stops. Drake looks forward and sees something in a distance, an arrow.
As Drake hears a fire, he moves out of the way but the arrow pierces through his left arm. "AGH" Drake yelps in pain, he uses his right arm and grabs the arrow in his arm. Drake looks back and he sees an arrow towards Daring, Drake runs up and pushes Daring out of the way and the arrow hits the rock behind them. Drake grabs the arrow in his arm and pulls it out, One final scream brought him to his knees. Drake looks up to see a dragon in front of him, with a crossbow pointed towards his head. "Your coming with us." Drake looks over at Daring, "Who are these guys, Friends of yours?" Drake felt pressure slap him across the back of his head, "Get moving" He ordered. Drake grabbed the crossbow and pointed it left, the dragon pulled the trigger and killed one of his minions. "Oops." Drake jokes and twists his arm, and breaks it over his shoulder.
The Dragon screams in pain and lets go of the crossbow, Drake lets go of his arm and grabs it. Drake points it at the dragon, "I don't think so fire breath." Daring walks up to the dragon and hits him in his face, "Daring!" Drake yells. Daring turned towards him, "I think he has had enough." Daring then looks to the side of Drake and has a surprised look on her face, Drake feels something press up against his head. Drake looks over, It was Lazaravic.
