"Never seen a human bone before?" Rowena said with a smirk, looking around the cavern. She decided to make a dash for the chest, and picked it up. Almost instantly she heard a roar and very nearly dropped the chest. Rowena turned around to get out when she saw something behind Elizabeth. It could only be described as a mixture of animals, and Rowena backed up a little. "I think... that's a minotaur," Rowena said. She put the chest down so she could hold her sword properly in case she needed to attack. She backed up a little more, tripping backwards over one of the bones and landing on her back on the floor, her sword in her hand. She'd never encountered such a creature before, but had heard of it. She didn't even want to try and fight it, because it seemed like everyone else who had done hadn't come out on top. Abandoning the chest for now she crawled to a corner and picked up another sword, prising it from the hand of a skeleton.

Elizabeth slowley turned around. Something was obvosley behind her. "Oh my gosh." Elizabeth got out before hurring back, pushing a number for bones behind her. "You think its the gardian of that." She said, meaning the small chest. What they wanted was obvosley there, but they would have to kill the minotaur. She stood against the back wall, holding her sword, actully hoping that the thing would back off, or go after Rowena first, just to see how stoung it was.
Elizabeth now saw how hard this actully was going to be. We should of went in pairs she though. The minotaur moved vividly towards to two women.

Rowena held a sword in each hand, although she doubted any of that would make a blind bit of difference. She could have had an army with her and still be scared about being attacked by the thing. It was amazingly huge, and it smelt terrible.
"That's really bad personal hygeine," Rowena commented as the creature approached, reaching out for the chest.
"No!" Rowena yelled, jumping forward and swinging her sword at the creature, hitting it in it's side. It made a noise, and Rowena pulled her sword back which was now covered in some sort of blood, but as quickly as the cut had appeared in the side of the creature it healed over as if nothing had ever been there.
"I don't believe this," Rowena said, looking at the chest. It made sense that the guardian of a chest that had something with the power to bring dead people back to life and healed people wouldn't be able to be harmed. It had seemed easy to get in, but even running for their lives now was impossible.

"And how are we, suppoed to get this chest, and kill that ?" Elizabeth asked. Once again the thing took a dive at the chest once more, and Elizabeth this time swung her sword at hit slicling its other arm, but it soon healing. "I really think that this thing really has to stop haning out with courpses', the smell is starting to reall get bad." Elizabeth said. It was almost as if the smell was getting worse. She looked at her sword, at the blood, lifting it closer to her face, then moving it back down quickley. "Disgusting." She muttered. "Now how to get rid of this thing !" She screamed, as it moved closer to the two of them faster this time. She swung her sword and hit the thing in the neck, fulling expecting it to heal over fast.

Rowena swung her sword at the other side of the creature's neck, hoping it couldn't heal two wounds at the same time. Pulling her sword away with some effort she stumbled back and looked at the blood on her other sword which had dried very quickly in the atmosphere and had formed something like a crust. She dropped the sword and it shattered on the floor from the strange dry blood. Rowena wiped off her sword on the wall and looked at the creature, both of the wounds healing simultaneously. Rowena rushed forward and took another swing at it, but all she was succeeding in doing was enraging it more and it started to advance on her more. She was right next to the chest and she kicked it out of the way so the creature couldn't grab it.
"Why won't ya die?" Rowena asked angrily.

"Lets see, because its stubborn!" Elizabeth said, trying to wipe some of the gunk off her sword, using the wall. Elizabeth stood there and thought for acouple seconds. She could stay and help Rowena fight off the thing and possibly be killed, or she could run like crazy and escape. She looked down at the chest, which both Rowena and the creature had forgeton about. Yes. That was what she would do, but she'ld have to wait for just the right moment. For now, she watched the creature heal yet again another cut.

Rowena was being backed into a corner now, and she looked behind her at the skeleton of the man she'd taken the other sword from. She looked around for an escape but couldn't seem to find one. The fact Elizabeth was there as well was forgotten as she swing her sword at the monster's face, catching it directly in the eye. It screamed in pain and Rowena swung the sword a second time at it's face, aiming again for the same area, trying to hit it quicker than it could heal it, which proved hard because of it's rough skin.

'This is it' Elizabeth thought, looking at Rowena and the creature, then at the chest, then back up at the creature and Rowena. Elizabeth kept her sword out, but placing it in her weaker hand, and moving closer to the chest. She bent down, picked it up, and ran as fast as her legs would alow her too. She now thought about what if that creature would come after her. As long as she could make it out of the cave, she'ld be happy. Hoping to find someone from there.

Rowena hit the creature a third time and then heard a noise, the sound of someone running. Looking around she saw Elizabeth running off with the chest.
"No!" Rowena cried, using the creature's momentary pain to run after Elizabeth, hoping she would catch her up. She was trying to wipe her sword as she ran though, which proved to be difficult. The creature was hot on her tail as well and she looked around, and then back at Elizabeth who was very far in front by now and near the end of the cave. When Rowena ran into the sun, seeing Elizabeth ahead of her she screamed in frustration.
"You imbecile, you foolish girl, in saving Sparrow you've doomed us all!" Rowena screamed, the creature had stopped chasing her now and wouldn't venture out into the sun. Rowena threw her sword to the ground angrily and snarled, trying to decide what to do now.
