Trapped in a Pyramid

I am real sorry that I took so long to write this next chapter. I have been in the Ivory Coast for the past two weeks. I hope I have not lost anyone yet!

Lex opened the door to she Scar kneeling in between three uglier creatures then himself. The romm Lex noticed was filled with battle weapons and skulls of other creatures from distant worlds. A small fire roared in what looked like a highly technologically advanced 'fire place' and Lex continued to look around the room not noticing the two fellow Predators behind her who looked extremely pissed.

Lex looked back at Scar who was glaring at her sharply with his little beedy eyeballs and to her it looked like he was mad. Before she noticed what was happening Scar was immediately up on his feet and had pushed past her 'protectively' in Lex's opinion and had one of the two other Predators who had unshielded his ten-inch long two-bladed sword. Lex immediately backed away as one of the elder began to speak to Scar in their own language. A number of chirps, and other noises were made between the two creatures.

Lex continued to back herself up only to bump up against a wall next to a 'case' with throwing disks like Scar had used in the Pyramid. If she had to use them she would be prepared to protect herself or even the creature before her, if another one of his clanmen came up to attack him. Was the human race so well unliked for Scar's race to be acting this way, Lex wondered.

The elder and Scar continued to communicate to each other and every once and awhile Scar would turn his head to look at her, but she did not know what he was thinking because his facial expressions were blank. Slowly, Scar loosened his hold on the other Predator he held which backed away from him immediately and 'bowe' to him. The elder who had been talking to Scar immediately turned around and returned to his sitting position but not before making a roar to Scar.

Lex immediately relaxed feeling that all tension had passed but gasped when Scar immediately grabbed her arm tightly, almost cutting of the circulation of blood. He then began to trudge back to the room they came. Doing so he was dragging Lex along who cried out at the rough treatment she was receiving from Scar. Maybe it was better to fight off the other Predators in that huge room than being stuck with Scar.

Lex let out a cry as it felt her arm was about to be ripped out of its socket. As she followed along behind Scar, almost tripping several times, she put on the breaks. This did not result in anything except for Scar tugging even harder on the arm that he grasped in his extremely large reptilian hand.

Scar pushed open the door to the room they had been the night before and basically flung Lex onto or near the 'bed' they had slept on the night before. Lex let out a cry of pain as she hit the rough surface of the 'bed' hard at least cracking or brusing her already tender ribs. Tears came to her eyes as she starred at Scar who bellowed at her and stalked towards her angrily.

Lex said, 'Easy big guy I know you are angry but maybe you should go to a shrink first before taking your anger out on me.

Scar replied by swipping at her and nearly hitting her with one of his large hands, balled into a fist! Lex dodged and looked worried as the Predator before her advanced on her again.
