" And we go through this way"Laura said as she move forward.

" let move" Ralph said placing the bag in his back.

They walked into the forest with carefulness.

" According to the map ,it shows three way to the tomb,

1) through the lake of the dead.

2)Through this forest

3) through the rough mountains, no one has ever use that as a route

" which one should we go for " Laura ask still looking at the map.

" none of them sounds easier" Ralph replied.

" If we go through the lake of the dead ,there is high possibility of us not making it, if we go through the forest we don't know what trap lay there as everywhere will be covered with fog.

" My suggestion is that we go through the mountains,even though it is hard to pass through that it is the only way" Raphael concluded and Laura nodded with a thump up.

" Yes thanks baby am always genius,don't I deserve a peck" He pouted his lips and Laura shooked her head before giving him a knock.

"Ouch,what was that for" Ralph cried in pain as he rubbed the side she knocked.

" We are at the jaws of death,stop been a baby" Laura scolded and she smiled a little bit kissing his cheeks.

"That sounds better darling, let move , he said moving forward. making Laura sighed

"That is not the way Ralph" She almost yelled at him.

" oh sorry , which way " He smiled showing his sexy white teeth.

" That won't work on me ,this way " she said going through the left side .

they walk carefully further and further making them sweat hard.

" To make money is not easy" Ralph muttered and Laura breathed out hard ,"

I think I need a break" Laura said breathing heavily sitting under an oak tree.

" Yeah sure , have water," He said handling over a bag of water .

" Thanks " She said sipping from it....

They where still resting when they heard a loud hiss coming from the tree.

" Shhh, stay still it's a python" Ralph whispered and Laura nodded a bit.

The python crawled from the tree towards them slowly hissing hungrily.

Ralph on the other hand took his long knife hidden gently as the python crawled towards Laura when it opened it mouth to swallow her ,Ralph stood up and cut off its head.

" That was closed " Laura breathed out .

" Let move out of here" Ralph said as he looked down on the big python he just killed.

They took their bag and left quickly still looking around.

" I just pray, we shouldn't met with a tiger ,I can't have another scratch of them.in my body" Ralph said and she laughed remembering when they went to collect a jewelries from the dead one.

They met with a jungle tiger ,Ralph been a built body guy fought hard with it,In the end Ralph killed it but it left a deep wound in his stomach which he survived miraculously.

" I can't have you been taking care of like a baby ,I also don't pray for that" Laura said earning a playful glare from him.

" Whatever,I know you don't love me,and here comes the mountains we have been searching for since hours" Ralph said before kneeling down he brought out an an anchors.

" put it on in your hands ,you can climb with it without falling down ,I can't carry a broken bone home" Ralph joked .

" ouch,what was that for " He shouted holding his leg as Laura step on his leg, immediately he completed his statement.

" I will stop working with you infact ,after today we are no more togethers" he said still feeling the pains on his leg.

" well that is not your first " Laura retorted with her tongue out of her mouth.

" Ancient Jade here we comes " Ralph said as they start climbing the rough mountains.

after many hours of climbing the mountain they reached the top.

" thanks goddess" Ralph muttered as she helped her sit ,

" Water,please " Laura coughed hard as she was handed the bag of water ,she gulped down hard.

" Hey don't drink it finish" Ralph said and Laura stopped still breathing heavily.

" I think that is where the tomb is located " Ralph said pointing towards a small castle seen in the middle of a fog.

" Yeah that it is " Laura said looking into the map.

" Let get going" Laura said standing up taking out her sharp knife....

They walked further a little bit and they came across a huge door...........
