(that seems improbable. Sorry, I don't want that to be the story.)
Tyson gulped. "Are you sure, Lucille?" He turned and looked back. He realized there were several tunnels that branched off from this one. "Oh…crap…"
(Well, I thought it could be a Journey To The Center Of The Earth by Jules Verne type situation.)
(Naw. I wanted to make this original-ish.)
(… so where does this cave lead is to? ^says jokingly^ Atlantis?)
(Possibly…naw I'm just kiddin! I was thinking portal to another dimension type trickery….with a few complications…)
(Ooh. Sound interesting.)
Tyson turned back to Lucille. "Well, let's just keep forging onward."
"Possibly." Tyson looked at her, smiling a little. "At least I'll be dying with friends."
"Well, you have the always prepared nerd scientist genius billionaire on your side."
Tyson scoffed. "Yeah. I feel REALLY safe."
"Well, I can perform almost any type of surgery and administer medical treatment. You are safe whether you like it or not."
"Woah woah, wait. You're a billionaire!? Not just a smarty pants?"
"I made a cure for cancer. Of course I'd be rich."
Lucille raised an eyebrow and continued walking.
"So, think of me as Tony Stark. But not as naive."
"Wow, I'm in awe." Nikki muttered before jogging up to Lucille. "Crazy cave, huh?"
“Yes-“ Lucille said before running into a wall, “Ow.”
Tyson kept pace with Nikki and Lucille. "Yeah we were just wondering if a giant monster would appear out of nowhere and devour us!"
“… seriously, Tyson?” Lucille said, rubbing her forehead.
"Could be Crom Cruach…" Nikki muttered.
"No, but its possible." He glanced around the tunnel suspiciously. "You don't know what you'll find here…"
"Oh, or the Kracken will eat us up!" Leo said sarcastically.
"The Kracken lives in the sea." Tyson said. "But Krum could get us!" He lightly punched Nikki's shoulder.
“This coversation is making me more anxious.”
"Well, let's move it. I hope I can take more samples."
"It's actually Crom." She said, chuckling.
