Dan made his way through the tunnel, soon he came to a dead end, with a ladder leaning against the dirt wall. He gingerly climbed the ladder and pushed on the wooden ceiling of the tunnel. At first it didnt give, but with a little more effort, it began to move. He pushed harder, jumping up into the wood as he did. At last the wood gave and it flipped inward exposing a large dark hole. Dan carefully climbed up into the darkness.
