Asper Sarnoff Posted December 9, 2009 Author Share Posted December 9, 2009 "Good, I'll lead on. Leon will take the back. I need someone dependable to make sure no one is lagging behind."He started to make his way into the jungle, there was quite good room between the trees here and the vegetation was light. But he knew that would probably change the further they came inlands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asper Sarnoff Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 They marched for about an hour when Wolf signaled back to the others that they should stop and take a five minute break. He had keept quite a hard pace, tough not as fast as he would have done if he were alone."We've done about 5 klicks. Almost halfway, I think." He noted as he hung the machete up in his belt. He hadn't had to use it much yet, only the last mile or so had the vegetation started to get so think it had started to hinder them.He suspected that was about to change now tough, the ground was slooping downhill, and the wind from the north carried a rotten stench with it. He suspected they had some marshes and mangroves in their path, and he didn't look foreward to them. Not one bit."Okay, if anyone have boots that gnaw, take them off and walk barefeet. If you get galls in this climate, it WILL get infected." He had been walking barefeet all the way, being carefull not to step on snakes, or any other poisonos creatures.He walked around a bit, checking the trees around their resting place before he found one he was happy with. He grabbed hold of a branch and hoisted himself up. With strong limbs and sharp claws, he keept climbing untill he reached as far as the tree would hold him. When he looked up into the direction they were about to travel, he noticed that even if they were walking downhill towards the marshes, the trees there were much larger than those here. Once they got uner those, the sun would be blocked out, and they would have to find their way in darkness. He keept this to himself as he climbed back down again and jumped down onto the ground.

Guest Julius Quasar Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Falco removed his boots and checked his feet. No problems. But he decided to follow Wolf's example, and hung his boots over his shoulder, as he wielded his sword.Panther placed his boots in his backpack, and checked his feet. Sore spots, but NO galls or blisters. He strapped his boots to his backpack.Fox took of his boots. No blisters, so sores, or galls. But the were rubbing in the corners of his feet, so he put his boots in his pack. He then turned to Falco. "Falco! How about easing up on the weight of your load, since you don't have a backpack? I'll strap one of your boots to my pack, Panther can strap the other boot to his pack, and we'll all take hold of the rope as we walk, to keep pace, and haul each other up over climbing obstacles. Okay?" "Sounds like a plan! Everyone, take hold of the rope, just like when we were little kids in school!" "Good idea, Fox..."Panther took one of Falco's boots, Fox took another one, and Falco unraveled the rope for everyone to take a grip.

Kursed Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Krystal saw no problems with her feet as she took her boots of but decided to put her sandals on instead of walking barefoot."I don't know Fox can we all trust each other enough at this point?"Krystal asked taking a hold of the rope.

Fox tapped his forehead when he said "sense anything", alluding to Krystal's powers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Para Astaroth Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Leon remained in his usual spot, blankly staring out at the sea while sitting in the sand hunched over holding his switch blade as he swiftly opened and closed it; not even staring at it.

"Yeah...I can take or leave the outdoors, I only like the outdoors when I'm flying." "Heh...you guys wouldn't have made it 5 minutes on Sauria." "I did save your ass in space over Sauria, Fox..."

Kursed Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Katt scratched a mosquito bite on her ankle and gazed hopefully at Wolf. "What didja see?" she asked curiously, her boots on the hems with her wrapped up arm. The tropical trees cast dappled shadows over her face and she squinted her eyes against the sunlight."Don't itch that Katt it will just make it worse."Krystal warned KAtt.

Asper Sarnoff Posted December 12, 2009 Author Share Posted December 12, 2009 Wolf turned around to face Katt. "We're going into a huge swamp it seems. I don't like it, but we don't have time to go around it." Again, he sniffed into the wind, and made a grimace as he again caught the rotting stench. "Ever been into a mangrove? They are the closes thing you can get to hell without dying first." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Julius Quasar Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 "This rope should help to keep pace" Fox placed his blowgun where he had placed Krystal's staff on his pack during the SF Adventures game. "I guess so..." Panther also placed his weapon on his pack the same way Fox had done with his. "I'll be glad to make it to the peak...what are we gonna do once we get there?" Falco, who had removed the safety harness strap from his improvised blaster, and used it to hold his sword hands free.Fox, Panther, and Falco took hold of the rope each.

Asper Sarnoff Posted December 12, 2009 Author Share Posted December 12, 2009 Wolf sat down on a rock as he started to put some of his clothes from the backpack on again. "Okay, we have to go trough the mangroves, there is no other option if we are to get to a safe location in time for the night." He bent down and started lacing his boots. "There are a few rules you better keep in mind tough." He stood up and held up a clenched fist in eye heigh, before he raised his index finger. "Number one, follow in my footsteps. The ground under the water is soft, and if you're not carefull, you'll sink in and get stuck." He raised another finger. "Number two! Do not under any circumstance swallow one drop of the water you'll find in there. It is so full of bacterias, it will kill you. A long horrible death, several days with dehydration and diarea. Believe me when I say it isn't pretty."Another finger came up. "Get as much clothes as you can stand back on. There may be snakes and other dangerous creatures in the water, and you don't want them to get trough to your skin. Now, rule number four!" He raised the little finger and waited, a long dramatic break before he continued. "The one who has gas, travels at the back of the pack!" He sent them a rough smile before he turned around and started walking downhill, to the marshes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Everyone take a grip on the rope!". After making sure everyone had done so, Fox himself also took a grip on the rope Falco had, and he walked with everyone towards the mangrove.As they neared the Mangrove, a foul stench wafted towards them.

Asper Sarnoff Posted December 13, 2009 Author Share Posted December 13, 2009 After a couple of minutes walking downhill, Wolf noted the threes were now blocking out so much of the light above, that almost none of the sunlight reached the bottom. The ground was starting to get softer, and they started leaving large footprints in the mud as they keept on. Wolf didn't like leaving tracks, but they didn't have time to cover them up. Besides, it was unlikely the creatures that were hunting them would follow them trough the mangroves.Now, they had reached the boundaries of the large lake which made up the base of the mangrove. The water was brown of dirt and mud and as Wolf started wading into it, it started to rapidly deepen untill it reached him to the belt. The vegetation consisted of countless gnarled branches coming out of the water, like the tentacles of a swamp monster, and among them huge trees which streatched out well above hundred feet above them.The hostility and wickedness of the place sent shivers running trough him. It was as he saw movements behind every tree, hundereds of ripples in the water that could potentialy signal danger.Each step was a struggle as the mud on the bottom drained at his strenght. Trying to hold him back for each step he made foreward. He keept counting the step he made, so he would know which distance they had covered.He hoped they would be out of here soon. He most certainly didn't want to take a rest here.(To give you some imagination on how I envisioned this place, take a look at this:http://preilly.deviantart.com/art/Swamp-creature-16405175Minus the monster of course, for now.)

Kursed Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Krystal struggled to continue on but moved Forward despite her difficulty "Wolf can you tell how long untill we reach dry land this swamp is giving me the creeps and all the life forms are Driving my telepathic sence nuts."Krystal said still following the group.
