This chamber was a sight to see. Oscar was amazed that an ancient civilization could manage all this; just imagine what they had deeper within! It'll probably earn Oscar a fortune. As Oscar stepped forward, he tried to make out what the symbols on the walls might mean. They were all so angular, it was impossible to tell what they were supposed to be. Images? Letters? Oscar decided to leave it to a smarter group than him to decipher.

As he reached the end of the hall, the light from the glyphs highlighter something in the corner. Oscar narrowed his eyes before approaching. As he bent closer, he squinted harder to try to make out what he saw. As the realization crept in, his eyes widened. Oscar picked up the object and turned toward Asher.

As he spoke, his tone was very deflated. Like a child who found the presents under the tree to be sludge. "Hey Asher, I could have sworn the Pokenav was invented rather recently." Oscar held out the object he had found, a pokenav. Its paint was scratched and its screen was shattered, but it definitely wasn't ancient.

That settled it. Oscar looked to Zygarl and motioned toward the beast. Zygarl shivered, once again it had to fight something that should be way out of his league. He looked up to Malum for a moment, watching the carefree Inkay sway happily. Almost as if he were mocking Zygarl. This got him mad. Zlygarl lifted off the ground and floated high above the Krookodile. The Krookodile was actually already waking up, Malum's light slowly making sleep impossible. It probably would have taken longer to get up if not for the Vacuum Wave that would slam against its back.

The Krookodile looked to Zygarl and scowled. If not for Zygarl having nowhere to escape, the glare would have caused him to flee. Oh well, too late now. Zygarl flew in for a punch, only to have his claw Crunched by the beast's maw. The Krookodile swung Zygarl around like a toy, only being inturrupted and some sort of meteor like projectile to the face. Zygarl took the chance to break from his opponent's grasp, just in time to see a glowing Malum float away. It would seem the tyke used his Superpower to help, how very generous. 

As the monster realed Zygarl did not hesitate to retaliate. He smashed into the beast with a bullet punch, following it up with a rapid fire of fury cutter. The wave of blows was too much for the krookodile, who quickly buckled beneath the strikes. It tried its best to withstand the blows, but if it couldn't find a way out soon it would be done for. Oscar turned to Asher. "This should keep the thing distracted. Let's send Malum and Faust into the hole." Malum overheard this and happily flew into the hole, his light poking out of it.

Malum was too busy being a giddy little shit to notice anything in the room right away, but as Faust joined him he quickly regained his focus. Malum's light covered more of the enclosed space than he expected, and what he found was rather interesting. This large space under the apparent amphitheater was some sort of tomb. There was a stone coffin at the far end surrounded by jars, vases, and things that might have been valuable hundreds of years ago. Laying in front of the sarcophagus was a body.

Malum floated toward the body, expecting to find a corpse he could poke and prod. As he did poke them being, it groaned quietly. Malum hopped back in alarm. He looked to Faust and then back to the human. He was dressed in torn hiking garb, and seemed very malnourished. He lifted his head as Malum poked him a few more times, however he was unable to maintain any semblance of energy and looked back down. Malum looked to Faust and pointed up, indicating that they should bring their masters here.

Meanwhile, Zygarl was unleashing his rage against the Krookodile. Seemingly having enough of this bullshot, Krookodile reared back and slammed its head into Zygarl. Zygarl was pushed back, but this only managed to piss him off. He pushed his claws outward and was propelled backward by a Vacuum Wave. The beast was slammed against the stome seats, breaking them into rubble. It tried once morw to get to its feet,  only to collapse. Zygar watched it for a moment, and when he was sure it was knocked out he sighed deeply. Just in time for Malum to pop out of the hole and wiggle furiously.

Oscar watched Malum's indication and snapped hos fingers toward Zygarl. Zygarl vibrated, no rest for the weary. He approached the hole and allowed his master to climb aboard his shoulders. The three descended into the hole and Malum immediately floated over the hiker. Oscar walked over to observe the injured man, pressing his fingers against his neck to gauge his pulse. He looked to Asher, who by then should have surely joined him, "He's alive. His heartbeat is weak but he's hanging on." Oscar took a better look around the room, becoming much more interested in the artifacts. He began to pick up jars and trinkets to examine them, doing his best not to seem too giddy. "We'll have to come back to examine the rest of this stuff. Especially whatever's in the coffin." He stood up, "Let's get this guy to safety first." He sounded almost disappointed to leave all thos behind for now, but it had to be done. He could search through the magic shit santa left in his stocking later.
