The Maze of Minos

Everyone was looking down in a dark maze. There was destroyed rocks and walls everywhere. Finally, they saw the giant temple in the middle of the maze. They landed on a safe open area away from the rocks. Before they boarded down, they saw minotaurs with hammers blocking their paths. One was holding a giant hammer, while another had a giant club. The rest had spears, swords amd other weapons forged in fine metals.

"Leave now intruders!" one of them shouted.

"We're not intruders. We just want to enter the Maze of Minos..."

"We do not allow visitors here! Leave now before you face any consequences!"

Alucard whispered into Granger's ear, "Are they all minotaurs? Who is Minotaur among them?".

"I don't know. This is my first time here." Granger replied.

"Okay, okay, you guys do remember me right?" Claude said, standing in front of them.

"No, who the hell are you?"

Gusion stepped forward, dragging Claude behind him.

"Okay, I know you minotaurs won't let us pass until you know why we're here." he said.

Gusion picked up the Twilight Orb in his pocket and showed it to the others.

"This orb here belongs to your people, and we're here to return it back to where it belongs."

"The Twilight Orb! It's back! We have to tell the others immediately!" one of them said.

"Okay, you can come with us. This way please..."

The minoan guards led them into a giant stairway. It was made of white limestone ane marble. As they started climbing the stairs, they could see the entire maze below them. The maze was built on top of the mountain, and the other taller mountains around it covered it up, preveting intruders from entering.

"Look onee-chan!" Ruby said.

"Yeah, it's beautiful."

"Hurry up humans, this way."

When they finally reached the top, they saw Minotaur, sitting on a pile of rocks. He was throwing rocks wildly everywhere as he saw the others.

"Minotaurs, didn't I tell you we aren't allowed to let strangers to go in?"

"But Minotaur..."

"Nonsense! The Twilight God will kill us all..."

Gusion showed the Twilight Orb in his hands. It started to spin rapidly and emitted a bright light. Gusion passed it into the air, as it was floating by itself.

"I'm here to return what's yours Minotaur." Gusion said.

"N-No! Why is this happening?!"

"Huh, what do you mean..."

All of a sudden, Dyrroth appeared behind Minotaur, pointing his round glaives at Minotaur's neck. The Minoan guards behind them got pushed down by Alice, who had sneaked up behind them. Soldiers came out hiding from the pillars and surrounded the heroes.

"Hahahaha! I knew you would come, Paxley!" Alice said.

"Were you following us this whole time?" Gusion asked.

"Oh, no. We have been waiting for you for days now! And you came!!!

"The numbers game will take place here Alice! It's 12 versus 2, plus your minions, so you should surrender now!"

"12 versus 2? No, I brought more of my friends here!"

"Thamuz came from underneath the ground, turning the limestones below him into molten lava. Helcurt, Balmond and Argus appeared behind her back. From the sides of the temple, Terizla and Aldous walked and stood tall.

"It's about time, The Twilight Orb shall once again fall into the hands of the Abyss!!!"
