PART ONE
"It is here!" Craig said. "Right behind this stone door." "Let's try to role it back." James suggested. "It looks movable." Craig replied. Craig and James, the two twins, along with the camera tried to push back the door. It was not going anywhere. Craig held his hand to his head whipeing the sweat. James, knew his brother was pissed. They had traveled all this way and finally they were just outside the chamber where tons of treasure was located. "Damn it." Craig said. The camera man remained silent as he had the whole trip. He was very sneaky like, sneaking up on Craig and James randomly scaring them. James sometimes wondered if he was trustworthy enough to bring along on a trip like this. "Do you have anything?" James asked Javier, the camera man. Javier kept silent and shook his head signaling he had no idea. Javier shined the video camera around the large room. It wasn't to elaborate for a room guarding a treasure. Only a few chandeliers hung from the top but they obviously weren't producing light. Craig and James continued to think out a plan as Javier still surveyed the moss covered room. "Guys look, I think its some sort of code." James marked. "It looks like a puzzle. Let me see if I can figure this out. Craig search for a hidden door or something." Craig. "Aye, aye!" "Javier, make yourself useful. Drop that damn camera, alright..." James was broken off by a loud noise. The twins looked over and saw that Javier did drop his camera. He dropped it and shattered it into at least a few hundred pieces. "What the hell are you doing?" Graig asked. Javier finally spoke. "I seen something! Holy..." Just then the door blocking the gold filled chamber clicked, and rolled itself out of the way. They all turned looking puzzled. All three men remained silent, pondering the fact that just after Javier freaked out, the door slammed open. "Any ideas?" Craig asked scared. "I'm ready to get the hell out of here." James chuckled a bit inside. He had always tried not to laugh out loud as his brothers babyness. Poor guy, must be paranoid he thought. James still kept his composure and was the first to walk into the next room, supposely the chamber. The twin and Javier, nervously followed. James took a few more steps into the pitch black darkness. He clicked on his flashlight hanging on his belt loop. Shining it through the air he noticed a huge golden statue laying on its base in the middle of the small chamber. It wasn't what he had expected but hell, it would make him rich enough. Soon enough, a few lights flicked on as if someone was welcoming them. Bam! The door closed behind them making the three jump. "Ahhh!" Craig screamed. James turned back to the statue keeping his eye on Javier who was acting a little weird. Javier reached into his pocket, hanging on the side of his baggy pants. He lifted out a revolver and pointed it to Craig. "Javier, what are you doing?" Craig asked shocked. "Javier, put the gun down. There is no need for this. We all are scared." James put in. "You better get me the hell out of here before i cap you both." Javier continued. Javier's face turned cold and he frowned as he held the gun tighter and look behind James. A gun shot fired, but it wasn't tor ward the twins. It whizzed over James's head as he dunked a little. A loud shreak was heard behind the twins.
