"No, I mean why am I digging the hole? Why is it always me getting my hands dirty?" Sanders paused in his shovelling, although he didn't really expect a reasonable answer. "I told you'd I'd take over at some point. Don't stop or we'll never finish." Turk lifted his hat and ran a hand through his curly red hair. He was shorter than most men but made up for it in attitude. He was uncomfortable standing here in the shadow of the church. The cemetery was eerily silent in the black of the night. Sanders reluctantly resumed his shovelling knowing that somehow Turk would make him do all the work. Beads of sweat rolled down Sander's dark brown forehead. Although he was born on the southern islands, he grew up here and spoke with only a minor accent. The two had been good friends since childhood and had grand plans to become tomb raiders. A wooden "thud" surprised them both as Sanders dug deep with another downswing. "It can't be the coffin. We haven't dug deep enough," he ventured as he cleared away a bigger space revealing some wooden boards. Turk swung his torch down for a better look. "It's not a coffin. Look at how the boards aren't tight together. This is weird. Clear off some more of the boards." Sanders hesitated, stifling a quick comeback at being ordered about so. But curiosity got the better of him and he cleared the dirt away from a larger section. The boards were of varying sizes and their ends were still buried in the dirt. Kneeling down at the edge of the hole, Turk tested each of the boards. "Some of these are loose. Maybe I can pry one up." Choosing a narrow plank, Turk managed to get his fingers under it and tried pulling. Eventually the board snapped and he was left holding just one end. The other half fell away into the darkness. "Listen to that. It's not a box, it's a pit or something. That board fell a bit before landing." He rattled a bigger board and managed to snap it downward into the pit. "Turk, what have you got us into this time?" Sanders muttered, kneeling next to Turk and trying to peer through the boards. "What if this is --. What was that? Something's moving down there!" Both Turk and Sanders instinctively moved back from the edge. Somewhere at the bottom of the hole, something was moving about.
