IC: 13: Victory is Ours!

August 1921, Boston.
A dead guard at the abandoned chapel, a stolen statue revealing strange numbers and a burnt postcard. A strange night sighting by a Harvard professor only 2 days later has led to too many coincidences to ignore.
Dr. Chambers is forming another MAPS team, and you have been called.

The passage does not go far, you know you haven't reached the ocean yet, when you see an opening. A large cavern with sharp angles that come from unusual angles, surround you. In the center of the room, a pedestal holds a 20' tall statue. Light from a small opening in the ceiling shines down on the statue, it seems to shimmer and fade in and out in the light. Like it is there and not there at the same time.

A whisper echoes from one of the dark recesses of the room. Your flashlight does little to penetrate the crevice.
Listen,both of you make a listen check.

Eddie,you hear a slight rustling, like flesh sliding against stone, a small faint voice shispers inside your head, scratching at the inside of your skull, "Help me"

"Did you hear that?" whispers Eddie. "It sounded like someone moving against the stone and whispering for help. But how can anyone be alive down here?"

Richard checks his pistol and then looks in the direction the voice came from with the flash light "Maybe its someone who was hiding from the creature that got caught in the blast"

Gripping his shotgun, Eddie cautiously approaches the source of the sound.

The direction of the sound was difficult to pinpoint due to the strange architecture of the room, but you shine your lights into one of the crevices you think it came from. Eddie takes point with his shotgun and Richard follows from behind. You move 10-20 feet into the crevice and your lights reach what you think is the end, and you see nothing.

You hear another shallow "help me!" coming from behind you. The voice doesn't sound human.

Eddie whirls around, leading with his shotgun. "Must be one of those fishmen playing a trick on us," he whispers. "Let's get back to the bottom of the pit and try one of the other tunnels."

Richard replies "I agree" and follows Eddie back down the tunnel

Yea leave the room quickly and head back to the middle. There is a branch heading NW and one going SW. From up above the ladies yell down.

"Did you find the statue?"

"Not yet!" calls Eddie. "We need to try one of the other tunnels. How about northwest?"

Before you even get to the end of this tunnel, the smell hits you. As you approach you see a large chamber that appears to have been used by the Star Spawn for his refuse and waste.

Richard listens closely for any voices

Not hearing anything he says "I can't handle this smell" and starts to go back down the tunnel from where they started from

"I'm with you," says Eddie, hastily following him back. "It's got to be the southwest tunnel."

The 2 of you quickly backtrack from the room of refuse and head down the last tunnel. You go a bit further on this one and it finally opens into a large room with a large pool of water in it.

"Maybe it's in the pool, under the water," whispers Eddie. "Shine the light on it."

Richard shines his light into the pool of water with his left hand with his pistol pointing at the pool in the right hand.
