Bandit calmed down enough to let down the smoke screen, and saw Ember emerge from the water. She hurried to her friend and asked, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah besides being soaked to the bone." Ember said

Bandit shivered, "I hate the water." Then she said, "You need to warm up, I guess we can scratch hunting."

Ember nodded and she frowned at her soggy fur.

Bandit started walking back to the relaxing place, but it was just not to be! As she was walking back, she put her foot into a hole, and the ground under her collapsed. She found herself underground in a tunnel, lit by strange blue paintings on the walls.

Ember looked down the hole. "Are you okay?" Ember called down

"Ouch, I think so." Said Bandit. She looked at her paws, one of them was bleeding and scratched. "But I can't get out." She shouted up.

"Should I come down?" Ember asked

"I don't think that's a good idea." yelled Bandit. "Hold on, there's a lever here. Maybe it will be a foldable staircase or something." She pulled down a lever, which folded against the wall, and suddenly, the ground under Ember's feet gave way. She(?) fell next to her, and suddenly, the ground closed above them. They were trapped.

Ember panicked. Her eyes wide with fear and she was crouched in fear as well
