Boaz Returns

Lara walked through the dusty tombs she had to find Kurtis! Lara then heard something; it was a kind of groaning. Lara walked in the direction of the noise, and ran right into it! Kurtis was lying on the floor, blood over his chest.

“Kurtis!” Lara said.
Lara bent down to Kurtis, his chest was bleeding like mad. He was able to speak his last words.
“She will awaken once more. Kill her. Destroy her. Take this, and use it well!” He said, he then gave Lara his magic shuriken. 
“Who will awaken?” Lara asked.
“Boaz.” Kurtis said, he nodded his head to the side.
Lara looked, Boaz was sprawled out on the floor, blood draining from her head.
“I tried, I tried to kill her, but I only knocked her out with that deep cut.” Kurtis croaked again.
“Come on Kurtis! You can make it! Please!” Lara tried to urge Kurtis but he wouldn’t budge.
“Lara, thank you for everything you have done for me, just keep me in your heart.” He croaked yet again.
“Goodbye Kurtis! I never thought things would turn out like this.” Lara sobbed.
A tear rolled down Lara’s cheek and splashed on the ground. Kurtis groaned, and then closed his eyes.
“Kurtis no! Don’t! Please stay.” Lara beckoned, but it was no use. Kurtis had died, he had gone. 
Lara then grabbed his shuriken, walked quickly over to Boaz and raised the shuriken high in the air.
“You will pay for what you’ve done in hell!” Lara said, then she threw the shuriken at Boaz. But something happened, that Lara hadn’t expected. Boaz raised her hand and grabbed the shuriken.
“Nice try!” Boaz said. 
Boaz stepped up from the ground, and threw the shuriken at Lara, but Lara grabbed it.
“You are an evil woman Boaz!” You deserve to burn in the fires of hell!” Lara shouted with anger. 
Lara drew her pistols and started shooting at Boaz, but Boaz jumped to the side to doge them. Boaz raised her nails high in the air, and started mauling Lara. Boaz punched Lara to the ground and kicked her in the stomach. Lara yelled. Lara kicked Boaz and flipped back up. Lara threw the shuriken at Boaz, but Boaz whacked her long nails at it, it fell to the floor.
“Ah Lara. Haven’t you learnt by now? The evils are invincible!” Boaz shouted.
Lara reached deep into her backpack and pulled out an old-fashioned knife that Von Croy had gave her. It glowed in the light. Lara gathered up all her strength and threw it at Boaz, it landed right on target, it her stomach.
“Ooohh!” Boaz groaned. 
Blood stained her dress, Boaz then gathered up all her energy, which was very low, so she could pull the knife out of her chest. Boaz succeeded. Just as Lara turned away, Boaz threw the knife at Lara, it stabbed Lara in the back. Lara groaned, and fell to the floor, unconscious. Boaz walked over to Lara’s body, and picked her up. Boaz walked over to the middle of the tomb they were in and dumped her on the floor. Boaz then walked on front of Lara, and waited for her to wake up. 

Lara woke up and stared at Boaz.
“Why are you doing this?” Lara sked.
“What? Oh, THIS! For fun obviously!” Boaz said.
“You evil…” Lara was cut off.
Boaz kicked Lara in the face. Lara landed on the ground, blood draining from her face.
“Ha!” Boaz said.
Lara got up.
“I told you that you would pay!” Lara said. 
Lara picked the knife from the ground and stabbed Boaz. But it had no effect on her. 
“Huh?” Lara said.
“I told you, I am invincible!” Boaz said. 
Boaz turned around and started sprinting through the tunnels. Lara ran after her, sprinting very fast. Lara came to a fork in the tunnel, where did Boaz go? Lara went through the right tunnel. Lara ran into a huge tomb, which she would soon realize was a death trap. 
“Boaz. You can’t hide!” Lara said bravely. 
“Oh, yes I can!” Boaz said.
“Show yourself!” Lara shouted. 
Just then, Boaz dropped down to the ground, from above. Boaz looked different, her skin was darker, she was transforming! Boaz’s legs and arms disappeared, Boaz turned black, and her eyes went red. She fell to the floor; she was just a black ball, but, gradually, eight long, thin legs sprouted out of her body- she was transforming into a huge spider! Lara took a step back, and another. Boaz walked on all legs towards Lara; all six red eyes stared at her. Boaz then scurried very quickly towards Lara, Lara turned and sprinted away. The huge spider raced after her. Lara drew her pistols, turned around and started to shoot at Boaz, like always it had no effect. Lara started sprinting again, merrily merrily. Lara then skidded on the ground, on front of her was a huge wall- made of spikes! Lara turned around and faced Boaz.
“So all this was a death trap. Well done. But a Tomb raider does know how to get past things like these!” Lara said.
Lara took the magic shuriken out of her bag. She spun it in her hand and threw it at Boaz. It hit Boaz’s chest and blood came out. But Boaz was very strong, but she didn’t know she was about to fall into a death trap as well. The huge spider scurried very fast towards Lara. Just as it was about to push Lara into the spikes, Lara jumped to the side, and let the huge spikes skewer Boaz. Lara’s plan succeeded. Lara walked over to Boaz, she observed the corpse. Then Lara pulled the shuriken out of the corpse, and walked away…
