	The pair end up in an underground ruin where they locate Huxley's wrecked camera. Slash finds there's oil in grooves on the floor, so she ignites it, lighting up the room and revealing Huxley being clutched by an immense statue. Slash moves towards him but triggers floor plates, causing sections of floor to raise up and force her into the clutches of another statue. Obvserving the art on the walls, Whirl works out that the trap works by a series of weights and balances. By jumping on the raised sections of floor, she resets the trap, releasing Slash and Prescott. The trap going off has destabilized the ruined temple, so once there's a big enough hole in the ceiling, Whirl uses her copter mode to airlift the pair out. Huxley recovers consciousness, and Whirl and Slash suggest next time he bring a friend to be safe.		The pair end up in an underground ruin where they locate Huxley's wrecked camera.
