They stared at each other for the longest time, Ty's eyes wide and the man blinking rapidly. Then his eyes narrowed as he heard the voices of the squids that were now in the room.
"Man, I hate creepy places like this... Look, he's obviously not here, lets go!"
"No! We haven't even checked that coffin, suck it up!"
"The coffin?! No way in the Nether am I going near that!"
"Oh what's gonna happen?! A bunch of skeletons pop out and eat us?!"
"Yes!"
"You've been watching too many human movies! Now come on, open the stupid coffin!"
"If you're not scared, then you open the coffin!"
"You know what, I will!"
Ty's eyes widened in fear as footsteps walked toward the coffin, and they could hear the clasp being messed with and angry muttering. The man calmly reached down to his shoe and pulled something out, and Ty felt his heart nearly stop as he saw it was a gleaming dagger. The man skillfully spun it in his hand, then nudged Ty off of him with his foot. Ty now laid on his stomach beside the man, who was glaring up at the ceiling of the coffin.
"There, I got the stupid clasp! Its probably nothing but a skeleton!"
"W-Wait, Alex, this is the tomb of-!"
At that point, the squid named Alex opened the coffin. Big mistake, because before he could even blink a dagger was slashed across his chest. He cried out and stumbled back, and the man grabbed the edge of the coffin and hoisted himself out. Ty sat up on his knees and slowly peered over the edge of the coffin, watching with wide eyes as the man cut the throat of the squid. The other squid had pressed himself against the wall, staring at the man with wide as Alex fell to the ground, choking on his own blood for a few moments before he began deadly still. Ty stared at the body with wide eyes before he looked at the man to see him slowly walking to the other squid, spinning the dagger that was now stained with black, inky squid blood as he did.
"L-Look, Mr. Sky, o-or Mr. Minecraft, I-I never even wanted to come down here!" The squid cried, obviously terrified out of his mind. "I-I'm sorry we disturbed your sleep, pl-please, let me go! I-I've got a pregnant wi-wife back home!" The man narrowed his eyes, and Ty's own eyes widened before he scrambled out of the coffin and grabbed the man's arm.
"GO!" He yelled at the squid, and without even hesitating the squid raced past them and disappeared down the dark hallway. The man shoved Ty off of his arm, making Ty stumble back before he quickly stepped in between the man and the path. "You heard him! He said sorry and he had a pregnant wife back at home!" Ty yelled, and flinched as the golden eyes glared at him. "L-Look, you can kill me if you want! I-I'm sorry that I got in your coffin, but I-I'm not sorry I stopped you from killing that other squid!" He put up his hands defensively. "So-So, go ahead and kill me if you want, I-I don't care!" He shouted as he squeezed his eyes shut.
He could feel the man standing right in front of him, easily towering over him as he glared down at him with those animalistic golden eyes. Hands grabbed Ty's wrists and pulled them down, and he flinched as he opened his eyes, looking up at the man. The man glared at Ty, then looked at the coffin, and glared at Ty again.
"Haven't you ever heard of something called respect."
