The Bravos search for the crack

Becky put her hand on the wall. "I think we should look for the crack. If it's trying to hide then we will bring it to justice, as is our style."

Fuu was the first to follow, copying the way that Becky traced the wall. She felt no need to add anything. Emmaline and Liv followed suit. The four soldiers set a circuit, pacing around the junction fingering the coarse walls. They walked around, eyes half on the wall and half on Becky until they had made two complete loops of the small forked road. At this point Emmaline had grown bored and began thinking more about what they were doing.

"I've checked everywhere, I don't know about you, but I am certain it's not here. Maybe it's a different crossroads, or maybe they filled it in when they saw us coming." She felt like she had been wasting time, which bothered her greatly.

"I didn't see any other splits in the road. It has to be here" Becky replied

"I am afraid I have sensed no curses nor heresy." Fuu said.

"Maybe you blacked out, or they used mind control." Emmaline said, unhelpfully.

The bickering continued, and rose in volume. The groups weakness was it's collective attention span. Liv tried to remain on target, but began looking at the commotion, to see why they were arguing again and if any gnoll was approaching. Her hands kept working, and one slipped behind a rock while her back was turned on the wall. Nearly trapped, she moved her arm down to the floor where the crack was wide enough to get her hand loose. She whistled to interrupt her teammates. Heads turned to her as the acoustics carried the whistle.

"They've heard that no doubt." Fuu said solemnly.

"That is fine. I've found what we're looking for." The other three huddled around her. All looking at a shadowy indent in the rock.

"I don't follow." Fuu was perplexed.

"The hole is here. My hand was in it."

"Yeah, this is it." Although she wasn't certain, {MDR} wasn't sure of how many holes there could be in this cave system.

"I don't see it." Emmaline pouted. Confidently Liv plunged her hand back into the darkness.

"That is impossibly small, there is no way any of us could fit through there." Fuu said apprehensively.

Liv had already thought it through. She submerged her other hand into the inky hole, and pulled herself through, sliding through the crevice.

"She shouldn't have fit through there." Fuu was very much confused, something so unusual is believable, but something so interesting she should have seen before. "Help me through, Becky, you have expertise with this." She pushed her glaive, and Liv's rifle through, and was shocked at how they passed through. She reasoned that it must have a bend that swallowed the light. She moved her hands forward, sat her knees, and Becky pushed her through to the other side.

"What? What! No, what? Where did they go?" Emmaline was struggling to form words. Becky ignored her, she instead dove feet first through the rift, just as hastily as she had with her prior escape.

"C'mon contortionist." Becky grabbed Emmaline by the ankles and fell through.
