After a few hours of straight digging, we made it deep into the ground and found ourselves at the entrance to a dripping tunnel. We turned on our flashlights. I gulped.

“What do you think is in there?”

Seria shined her light in my face.

“You go first.”

“Me? But it's your club.”

“You're the one that dropped those dumbbells, dummy. You remember that, don't you?”

I frowned.

“Vividly.”

I pushed her light away from my face and moved forward, hunched over. The ground was muddy. My back ached. After 15 minutes, we reached a cave high enough for us to stand up. I cracked my back. Seria's pointed to something up ahead.

“What's that!”

I shined my light on something that looked like a pile of black rocks. My belly started to get rotten.

“This place has a bad frequency,” I said. “Let's vamoose out of here.”

Seria rushed forward.

“Skulls,” she said. “These are human skulls!”

They glistened as she ran her light across them. I shook my head.

“We can't be here. This might be an ancient Hawaiian burial site. We can't be here.”

Seria walked to the pile and picked up a skull. I shuddered.

“No – don't touch it!”

She ignored me.

“This is excellent! I can see it all now: Come on down to Sweat Zombies! See famous skulls from olden times while you work out!”

I was speechless – horrified. She went on.

“I'll even say they're haunted – ooooh, scary! People love that stuff. I'll make millions. Millions, I tells ya, MILLIONS. I can finally pay for that height reduction surgery Nikki wants.”

I raised a finger to ask about that last part, when the ground shook. The pile of skulls fell over and scattered. The eye sockets glowed. Lights flew out from them. The cave was filled with demonic laughter. Wind from somewhere blew our hair back.

I yelled out, “Ghosts! You've disturbed them! Shit!”

The lights flew over us in a circle. Something bad was about to happen. I started taking off my shirt, yelling through all the noise.

“Take off your clothes and lie down and they won't hurt you!”

Seria was stiff.

“What? I....”

I shot her a look.

“Just do it, woman!”

We took off everything but our socks and underwear and stayed on the ground. The ghosts screamed and flew out the tunnel. I rolled Seria over. She cried with her hands over her face.

“I'm sorry. I'm so stupid. Jesus, forgive me!”

I helped her up. As we hunched our asses out of there, I explained, “Legend has it ancient ghosts only kill people dressed in weird, modern clothing.”

She was still crying, “I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.”

I wasn't even sure if she heard me. When we made it back to the fitness center, Nikki reached down and helped us up. Seria hugged Nikki and looked at her.

“I'm so sorry!”

I looked around in a panic.

“Did you see the ghosts? Is everyone all right? Where are the ghosts?”

Nikki frowned.

“There ain't no such thing as ghosts. That's crazy talk. You're crazy.”

I said in a low voice, “You mean, you didn't see anything unusual fly out of that hole? No lights? No nothing?”

“The only thing I see coming out from that hole is two half-naked people.
