Nori had been peering into the darkness for long while but he could still not see anything or hear anything. So shaking his head, thinking that maybe it was just the wind he belted his axe and went to have a look around.

Suddenly he heard a yell and as he looked round to were the yell had come from he saw The boy Jem drawing his daggers, The yelling and the drawing of his daggers had been enough to alert the whole group, who where all now drawing weapons. "What is it" Nori whispered to the boy. "I felt something pass my leg" he said, There was no fear in the lads voice just an alertness.

Nori took his throwing axe from his belt and looked around. All of a sudden he let it fly across the cavern, it hit something soft which let out a high pitched skreech. Nori walk over to retrieve his axe. As he got up he was laughing heartily in one hand he had his axe and in the other he had by the tail an extremely large, fat and now very dead rat, "it's just a rat" he was laughing. Some of the others laughed too, Sheathing their weapons.

Jem lowered his head totally ashamed "don't worry lad we all make mistakes" Nori said to him still laughing. Nori was not Laughing at the boy but at how edgey and tense they had all been. He hoped that now the group would be less so and maybe even start to enjoy the adventure, so what if the ran into something he felt confident that this group could defeat anything. He laughed again and looked to falin to see it the would be leaving.
