Day 7

As he tried his very best to keep the stairs from creaking, Caleb had second thoughts about leaving his wife, but his curiosity got the best of him and continued onwards regardless.

The morning fog had cleared completely now, and the jungle heat was starting to become bothersome; summer in the jungle wasn't the most pleasant season.

Caleb walked back the way he had come, this time making much better time, and quickly arrived at the place he was sitting earlier.

Thinking back to where he had first heard the man, and then where he had first seen him, Caleb made his way towards a curiously dark section of the jungle.

At first it seemed the man must of been walking through the jungle for days, either that or he simply materialized from mid air, but then Caleb saw it; a small cave mouth, almost completely hidden by thick foliage.

Unable to resist, he cut down the vines blocking his way in, and took a step into the darkness.
