3rd Person POV:

The trio stood on the platform as they looked at the town before them. "Are we outside now?" Alibaba wondered.

Hoshimi then noticed something above and pointed at it. "Look," she spoke, making the two boys looked at what she's pointing.

"So that means that this is..." Alibaba trailed off.

The white-haired woman turned to him with a smile. "We're still inside the dungeon." She answered.

Then, a roar of fire caught their attention as they shifted their gazes and saw a beam of flames that burst from the ground in the centre of the city.

•••

Hoshimi and the boys were now riding on Aladdin's magic carpet as they flew over the deserted city.

"Not a soul to be seen..." Alibaba began astonishingly. "I wonder what kind of place this is."

"Necropolis..." Aladdin spoke, answering his question.

"Huh?" Alibaba asked.

"I heard it from Ugo a long time ago," Aladdin explained. "Outside the Room or Fortitude, there's a vast City of the Dead, the Necropolis, he said. I wonder if this is a place like that."

Alibaba then cups his chin in wonder. "Room of Fortitude?" He questioned before closing his eyes in thoughts. "Never mind that, so that giant can talk?"

"Only his body can emerge right now, but he's got a face too," Hoshimi answered as she observed the city below them.

"He's pretty handsome, you know." Aladdin grinned, adding after his sister.

"I see. He's the friend you like to brag about, huh?" Alibaba said before turning to the blue-haired boy with a grin. "When we get that flute back. I want you to introduce me to Ugo. I also want to to hear all about you and Hoshimi, okay..."

"Sure! Sound good!" Aladdin grinned back.

Hoshimi smiled gratefully, seeing the close bond that her younger brother and Alibaba are quickly forming.

The trio finally landed down and they arrived at two large doors. The boys push open, revealing a blinding light as they walked in. Seeing an old and dusty room that filled with rusted items, like swords, helmets and shields, scattered around the place.

They walked down the small stairs as Aladdin stopped and crouched down to pick up some pieces of stuff to look at while Alibaba and Hoshimi looked around. "Is this...the goal? What we've been setting our sights on? The dungeon's..." Alibaba stated.

Then, they heard a big boom behind them and they spun around to see a burnt and bloodied Goltas towering over them.

The giant man then began to tumble over as the trio gasped before jumping out of the way as Goltas's body crashed onto the ground.

Hoshimi quickly rushes over and check over the man's wounds with Aladdin following close behind as he kneeled beside her. "This is awful! Look, he's burned terribly in front." Aladdin gasped.

'Those stab wounds...' Alibaba thought as he stared at the bloody stab wounds that displayed on Goltas's back. Then, he looked up and his eyes widened. "Aladdin! Hoshimi!"

Already sensing danger, Hoshimi quickly pulled Aladdin close and turned around so her back was facing the attacker as a powerful kick made contact. "Gah!" She choked out with a pained cry before she and Aladdin were send flying. Crashing into the wall.

The red-haired girl landed beside her master, who looked deranged as they glared at Alibaba.

"Damn you!" Alibaba growled as he unsheathes his blade.
