Adventure through the sea cave

Inside the underwater sea cave, Kage, Tota, and Selena have fallen into a hallway from a strange entrance on the roof. The hallway is narrow and has corpses scattered throughout. Kage gets up and asks, "Is everyone okay?"

Selena gets up and instantly starts analyzing her surroundings.

"Yes, I'm fine."

Selena walks over to one of the corpses and scans it up and down.

"This person seems to have died recently. Are these the people who entered before us?"

While Selena observes the bodies, Kage helps Tota get off the ground.

"Kage, where are the others?"

"I have no idea."

"This is starting to get scary."

As Tota starts biting his nails out of nervousness, Kage smacks him on the back, which causes him to fall back to the ground.

"Come on, Tota, stop being a bitch! We will get out of here soon; don't worry! Aye, Selena, what are you looking at?"

"I'm just looking at these bodies."

"Well, that's a weird hobby."

"No, look at the bodies; they have multiple holes in them. Every single last one of them seems to have been pierced by something."

Selena looks at the wall behind them and notices the multiple arrows stuck in it.

Kage starts walking down the hallway, while Tota follows with a scared look on his face.

"These bodies are giving me the creeps. Maybe we shouldn't go anywhere until we find the others."

"Tch, come on now, Tota. You were able to stand up against Nubuki, and you're scared of a few dead bodies. Come on, let's get going already!"

"It doesn't matter who I stood up against! You're forgetting that I have no type of power!"

"Come on, you don't need powers to be strong."

"Yeah, and you say that with all that power at your fingertips!"

As Kage and Tota bicker with each other, Selena sees a line marked on the ground. Kage and Tota slowly approach the line she sees.

"Kage! Tota! Stop walking right now!"

"Huh?"

As Kage turns around to hear what Selena said, his right foot passes the line marked on the ground. Kage starts to hear something coming from down the hallway.

"What is that sound?"

"Kage! Put up a barrier now!"

"What?"

Kage looks down the hallway and sees multiple arrows speeding towards them.

"Shit!"

Kage puts up an energy barrier to protect all three of them from the arrows. Tota quickly hides behind Kage in fear.

"Ahh, we're going to die!"

"Calm down, Tota; with this energy barrier, none of those arrows will be able to hit us!"

Selena walks over to the two of them and starts looking at the arrows approaching them.

"Those arrows there are glowing, but why? This might be bad!"

Kage, these arrows aren't normal!"

After Selena screams her warning, one of the arrows phases through Kage's barrier and hits him in the leg.

"Ahh!"

"Kage!"

Kage falls to the ground, and his barrier dissipates.

"It went straight through my barrier!"

Selena gets in front of Kage and Tota.

Hurry up and get up, Kage! It doesn't look like we can block these arrows, so I need you to get up and dodge!"

Selena grabs Tota and starts dodging the multiple arrows coming their way.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Calm down, Tota. If you keep squirming, I will have to drop you!"

"I'm sorry, Selena; please don't drop me!"

At the same time, Kage starts rolling on the ground to avoid the many arrows coming his way.

"Damn it, this hallway is so narrow! I'm going to run out of room to dodge soon."

With Tota in her hand, Selena rushes down the hallway, avoiding every arrow possible. While rushing down the hallway, Selena notices that there's strange machinery on top of the roof. It is a simple red light that keeps flashing over and over again.

"That light can't be there for no reason!"

Selena rushes down the hallway at great speed and starts jumping on the sides of the walls.

"Ahhh! Selena, we're moving so fast!"

"Don't worry, Tota, we will be done soon."

Selena jumps up to the roof and punches the light with the flex technique. The second she destroys the light, all the arrows in the hallway disappear, including the arrow in Kage's leg.

"Finally, the arrows stopped, but why the hell did they disappear?"

Selena puts Tota down on the ground.

"What a relief!"

"Hey Kage, do you remember when Mr.Mink talked about a ghost knight?"

"Yeah, what's up?"

"I think those arrows might be a product of what awaits us deeper in this cave."

Kage gets up despite his wound.

"Damn, I really wish I knew the recover technique right now. Well, I guess I'll just walk it off."

"Hehe, yes, Kage. Let's keep moving."

"Hey guys!"

Both Kage and Selena look over to Tota, who is currently standing at the end of the hallway. At the end of the hallway, where Tota is standing, the ground is glowing. Selena walks over to where Tots is standing and notices something written on the wall.

"Only three may enter. Wait a minute, I figured it out."

"What did you figure out, Selena?"

"Think about Tota, me, you, and Kage; we're the first ones to enter the sea cave and nobody else. This writing says only three may enter, which makes me think the others weren't allowed in."

"So are you saying there's a capacity limit for this sea cave?"

"Yeah, exact—"

Selena looks at Tota and notices he's writing extremely fast in his journal.

"I see you are taking your dream to be a journalist pretty seriously."

"Yep, and I'm going to make sure I make an amazing story with this adventure."

"Well, moving on, I believe this glowing floor we are standing on is supposed to lead us deeper into the sea cave, but as it says, three people are needed. Kage, hurry up, we need you to stand over here with us!"

"Oh, ok, I'm coming!"

Kage runs over to the glowing floor and stands on it. When he stands on it, the glow stops, and a hole is revealed under them. All three of them fall down the hole.

"Ahhh!"

On the beach above the sea cave, the rest of class one is having a fun day on the beach. Akira is sunbathing on a long chair while Unknown and Mr.Mink sit next to each other and watch the water.

"It's been almost thirty minutes now, Mr.Mink."

"Don't worry, Unknown; they will come back up soon."

While class one waits patiently for the rest of the group, someone new enters the beach. Death enters the beach, walking slowly and ominously. With her green eyes glowing through her long black and gray hair, she says, "It seems we have some company."

Back in the underwater sea cave, Kage, Selena, and Tota have fallen deeper into the sea cave. The room they fell into is huge, with waterfalls on all four sides. The grass in the room climbs from the ground onto the walls.

In the middle of the room, the group gets up and starts looking around the room.

"Kage, Tota, it seems we have landed in a room with no exit."

"Wait! Wait! Does that mean we're stuck here?"

"Calm down, Tota. I'm sure there's a way out of here."

Selena starts pacing around the room. She starts touching each side of the room to find something.

"This room feels weird, almost unnatural."

Selena starts using the sense technique at her fingertips. She starts sliding her hand across the wall and slowly walks all around the room.

While she does that, Tota starts to write in his journal.

"What are you writing, Tota?"

"Oh, I'm just writing about the look of this place."

"Ooo Make sure to include your amazing friend named Kage."

"Haha, of course, I'll include you in the story."

As the two of them talk to each other, Selena, after walking around, feels something on the wall.

"Wait a minute, this place feels different from all the areas of this place."

"Kage, throw an energy beam right here in this area!"

"Oh right!"

Selena moves out of the way, and Kage throws a giant ball of energy at the spot on the wall Selena pointed to.

"Take that, you stupid wall!"

When the dust clears, the three of them realize the wall has taken no damage.

"Huh!"

"Hmm, it seems breaking the wall won't work."

"So if that won't work, what do we do, Selena?"

"Don't worry, Tota, I will figure it out. I just need a few moments."

All of a sudden, three huge spears came from the roof.

"Tota move!"

Kage grabs Tota and jumps out of the way of the spears alongside Selena.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Aye, Selena I don't think we have a few moments!"

"Yes, I know. It seems the rumors are true, and seeing that we only ran into it after falling to the second level means that this is as far as anyone has ever made it."

All three of them look at the top of one of the giant spears. On top of the spears is a 5'5 man covered in black and gold armor. His tattered cape flows without wind and his face is completely covered by his helmet. With his body glowing a bright purple, he says, "You're not worthy!"
