Kin was silent after he raised a debate. To which the answers came in favor of passing through the cave. Kin smirked and nodded in response as he took point and went inside the cave first. There was no time to waste and if they took a break now they’d be sitting ducks to any Rogue shinobi passing by. That being said Kin entered ahead of everyone, he moved into the darkness of the cave as he kept his eyes open. Before they entered the darkness of the abyss any deeper, Kin noticed a torch on the side. It was next to what seemed to be a mine entrance that caught Kin’s attention. He pulled the torch up and placed on hand on the large end. With that, he passed his fire affinity chakra over and ignited the end of the torch to give them away to maneuver in the dark.

Kin raised the flame above his head so that the path was cleared ahead of them. Moving in first he looked to everyone and said;

“Keep your guard up.”

It was obvious, but it was wise to inform others to do the same as any second of slack can land one of them dead. Once they walked deeper into the cave, about 15 min’s in. A rumbling could be felt, it was minor, but it occurred. Kin looked to everyone and nodded, giving an indication that there were potentially people in this cave with them. Once they reached deep enough, there was a mechanical elevator which seemed to go deeper into the mining cave. If they looked between the cracks of the elevator and the ground, they would notice a strange blue glow down below it. The option landed with them taking the elevator down and exploring what was down below. If they decided not to be curious they would need to continue searching for the location they were in for another way out. But before they left the location with the elevator, another rumble could be felt. It was stronger and closer this time around. Maybe it was below them? Regardless, they needed to make a choice and soon. If they continued to stick around with no decision, with time voices walking towards their location could be heard. A conversation they could hear as the two individuals walking over assumed to be alone. One man said;

“Rumor has it if we get some of the goodies from downstairs we can become rich!”

The second man replied;

“Yeah sure, but people rumor that those who go down there don’t come back. Do you think this is a risk we should be taking?”

Man one replied;

“Stop being a pansy! If money is involved think of all the women and sake we could buy?! We can even live our lives peacefully in Shangri La.”

The second man finished with;

“You have a point, let's get this over with already.”

What would the group's next move be? Capture these individuals and get information about Shangri La? Or follow them into the mine below to see what was down there? The choice was for the team to make. Though they needed to keep their inside voices as the cave would echo any loud sounds. Kin looked to Azel as he gave him a look indicating to be ready to kill both if need be. That being said only time could tell where this would end up.
