"I would say that spider is guarding something, and this might be the perfect time to slip by, but that's my point of view." Teo said to tempest while running. "I think I can hold it down while we make it over, it's not too late to turn back and see what's behind it if there is anything." Teo stopped running, turned around, and summoned vines from the walls, ceiling, and floor creating a vine wall in case the creature got back, and if it was a bat, certainly couldn't screech at us. "Alright, there might be something behind it, the vines can give us enough time to formulate a plan to A, eliminate it, B, slip by it, or C, get reinforcements. Tempest, since you're mostly in control, what's your choice?"

YW had no clue what was going on, but things seemed to be rather serious in that museum. He took notice in the crime scene, and eavesdropped on what the others were saying while he looked at a few exhibitions, not really gaining any concrete information on what was about. "Well.. it'd seem logical that this is a case of a stolen item, well, that's the most probable outcome."
While YW pondered the situation, an odd yoshi-dragon hybrid entered, at least, that's what YW thought that being was. He seemed late and inquired about about what he had missed, then proceeding in that hole, as many did before him. "That hole, I don't think those officers would let me in, but, curiosity killed the yoshi... and that hole may lead out of this city, two good reasons."
YW looked around, noticing that the detectives and officers there were busy with trying to figure out what happened and piecing this and that. He smiled a little, and proceeded down the hole undetected, "Well, that certainly was eas--- ACK!" YW gasped out as he tumbled down in the hole, stopping after a while as the footing of the tunnel became better. He slowly got up and dusted himself off, looking ahead of him. The tunnel was rather dark, yet at a distance ahead, he could see something creating a light source. He slowly made his way towards it, hoping the what he just did wouldn't get him into trouble again.

Yoshiken finally got a good glimpse of his allies, and he guessed more were joining in as he witnessed one stumble down the tunnel.
Yoshiken concentrated on the monstrous creature in front of him. He had a very horrible fear of spiders. However, he just got acquainted with the group and he wasn’t ready to ruin his reputation just yet.
Yoshiken pulled out his Katana from its sheathe in case there was any battling to be done and turned to the one everyone seemed to be acknowledging, “your names Tempest right? Well Tempest it seems you are the one in charge here, so what’s your decision?”

Tempest
~
Why are they all coming to me for answers? I know just as much as them about this mission.. Tempest pondered. He gritted his teeth and finished cleansing his wound.
"Let's take this creature down. It has to be down here for a reason, and we should do it just so that it can't threaten the museum in any way." Tempest decided. With that, he quickly concentrated on forming a ball of lightning in his palms. Even after a couple seconds, he could only form a measly collection of weak sparks. Everyone stared at his futile efforts.
"It's hard to find weather this far under the ground. The longer I'm separated from the sky and nature, the weaker I get." He said with a sad look in his eyes. Tempest dismissed the ball of lightning, and it dissipated immediately.
"I might not be able to be much of a force in this fight, but I can be a decoy. You guys are gonna have to take him down." Tempest leaped in front of the giant monster, and shouted.
"Over here, you pile of worthless waste!" Tempest shouted, his long tail twitching behind him. The monster turned to him and snarled, focusing on him and giving the others a chance to strike.
I hope they can do this.. Tempest grimaced, feeling his bond with nature grow weaker by the second.

"Oh boy..." A monster was aproaching the group. Enrique was a little bit afraid of the monster, in a way. He was never really that good at fighting... But he thought that it couldn't really hurt him to attack it... However, he had no idea how he was going to do this. This beast seemed to be a little bit more than he can handle. But then again, there was the others to help...
Ah, I have to do this. If not for me, for the rest of us. He also just couldn't let Tempest down. Although there was nothing to attack the monster with, he was going to attack it anyways. Or at least, get it into position so other people could attack. He jumped on one of the creature legs, then slowly climbed up the spider-bat-thing, hoping he would get noticed. On the climb up, he noticed a loose rock in the wall. He removed the small rock - it didn't shatter the entire wall - and lobbed it up toward one of the creature's eyes.

British barged his way up to the front of the group where all the action was happening. He raised the scope of his ASMD, hoping to see some sort of weak spot, but thing looked covered with hardened plating. "Maybe I can shoot a leg or two off, that might slow it down... if the shot will even penetrate it."
Zooming in with the scope, he aimed directly at one of its knee joints. It was thrashing around something fierce trying to escape from the vines, but regardless, British squeezed the trigger and instantly a blue beam lit up the tunnel, only to totally miss the creature completely. This annoyed British, he was often used to landing shots the first time around.
"What, can't you holld still for a second while I shoot you?" British took aim again, pulled the trigger once more, but this time the beam landed sucessfuly, blowing off a couple of its legs in an impressive display of blue sparks and assorted colours of spider gunk. He was about to fire once more, but all the ASMD could manage was a pathetic spark and a weak buzzing sound. "What the... crap, its empty already? Someone take over here while I reload this thing.." He slapped the empty cartridge into the recharging unit and fell back, fumbling around in the dark trying to load in a fresh charge.
The Spider was still thrashing around trying to right itself, it would be a golden opportunity for somebody to hit it again while it struggled to stand up on its newly made stumps..

The rock that Enrique threw hit the eye of the spider creature. After the creature blinked, Enrique noticed a bump from the spider; he saw this as a blast from British's gun. The sudden bump dropped Enrique a few feet. He quickly climbed down the spider and jumped of a leg that British didn't knock off. Then he ran back toward the others, almost looking like a scared kid. The spider was still slightly stunned when Enrique finished retreating, leaving a good chance for someone else to take their shot at the creature...

Jayshi looked at Enrique as he tried to stop it and looked at Tempest distracting it.
"Hold on, I'll try something!"
He looked around, looking at the rocks and the creature.
"Hmm...Those rocks are a little thick, but my sword is made of stainless steel. By the looks, I can slice them and try to bury it, but I might also cause a small cave in...I don't have a choice..."
"Hey, on the Spider! Get off! I think I have a small plan, plus it's risky, but it has to go down now!"

Tycho snapped his fingers again, lighting up his other hand in the same eerie blue flame as his other. Both hands ablaze, he grabbed one of the spiders legs, trying to light it on fire. The spider screeched in pain and then flailed around, Tycho didn't let go and was now being comically swung against the sides of the tunnel. "*oooff* I don't think he likes fire too much!" Tycho said when he finally decided to let go and fell to the ground.

"Hold On! I got it."
He ran in place to gain speed. He let go with a quick burst of speed. He jump and took out his sword, quickly hitting some rocks sticking out. Jayshi knocked a small rock that was supporting other rocks. When he did, He dashed away, seeing rocks fall. It hit a few times then a small group came, missing some and direct hits. One hit it leg just bruising it, hopefully breaking it.
"What? That should've work! Any other plans guys?

Yoshee unsheathed her Tennis raquet and whacked an egg as hard as she could. "How about... this!?" Yoshee called, sending the super-charged, glowing egg at the Spider-Bat's face. She swung her Tennis raquet menacingly again, picking up another egg. She tossed it into the air, and hit the thing again right where that other green Yoshi had been a second ago. The Spider-Bat screeched in pain at all the attacks.

Seeing the other blue yoshi flaming the spider and the green yoshis tennis racket-of-doom manoever, it gave me an idea. "LET'S FINISH IT!!" As the racket-wielding yoshi served another egg, Teo set it entirely ablaze from a distance, making a harsh ball of fire scream towards the spider, exploding upon impact dealing what would feel like the force of a sledgehammer while catching fire. The creature screamed in pain as vital parts burnt up and the spider fell to the ground, never to rise again. "Come on, you can't stand here all day, Tempest, if you're out of energy, maybe you could extract a bit of whatevers left of my vines or that monster," Teo said dashing past the spider. "Every moment you spend here might be the vital effort needed to overcome this menace to all yoshis! MOVE IT!!" And with that, Teo lit his hands ablaze, seeing the other blue yoshi mimicking with a blue flame, and wandering along the path...

"Right! No time to waste!" And with that, Yoshee followed the light blue Yoshi down the tunnel. Now that she had her adrenaline going, she was ready for almost anything. She was sure to keep up with the light blue Yoshi, so she wouldn't get lost in the dark.

OOC: Tycho is whiteish grey not blue if that's who you are talking about.
The monster spider defeated, Tycho rose to his feet, his flames out now that the fight was done. He ran up to Teo who had already gotten up ahead of everyone. "nice one" he said to Teo, "I'm gonna have to try that sometime...anyway, I haven't introduced myself yet, I'm Tycho." He hoped that he didn't sound like an idiot using a lame introduction like that.

Enrique followed the other light blue yoshi and the green yoshi with the tennis racquet into the tunnel, but stopped, looked back at Tempest, and asked, "Do you need help there?" He knew that Tempest was just getting weaker and weaker... Enrique just couldn't see Tempest just laying there to fade away... He knew that he could catch up to the moving flame quickly...

"Well hello Tycho, pleased to meet you...just call me Teo." Closer up, the yoshi was a more grayish color instead of blue. "And I couldn't have sent a fireball at that fast a speed with that big an impact if it wasn't for our tennis pro here," Teo said moving on. This tunnel seemed to go on for a while, there was one way to find out where the end was. Teo mustered up some fire-power as a fireball made its treck down the long path, revealing to us no exit. Not giving up, Teo also had a stone covered in dirt fly off towards the end of the tunnel with the fire ball, and after a wait, a knocking sound was heard.
"There IS an end to this guys!" Teo said still walking into the dark. Suddenly, he felt his balance shift, and quickly took his foot away, but it was too late. A huge boulder covered our entrance and started rolling towards us. "RUUUN!!!" he said sprinting away from the behemoth. Teo had had such a far lead, that only those that were nearest to him were trapped by the rolling boulder, the rest were safely behind it, watching it roll down after us.

Enrique heard several quite large thuds on the ground. All of a sudden, he sees Teo running out the way he came in. He looked the opposite way down the tunnel to see a large boulder his way. He jumped about four inches, and ran just following Teo. Then, he suddelnly realized that he had forgotten Tempest... "Oh crap... I hope he can catch up to the rest of us..." However, it was no time to turn back now; only time to run...

"Hehe..." I grinned at the compliment. Teo, as his name was, walked off into the darkness. "RUUUUN!" He suddenly ran back out, yelling. "What?" Then, a humoungus rock appeared! "Oh... AHHHHH!" I screamed and took off after Teo. I hoped Tycho was paying attention, too.

Jayshi walked up and saw a large boulder coming by.
"Oh Man Time to Go!" He quickly skated back to get away. Then, he stopped, looking at it. When the boulder was near, he threw a strong wind attack, slowing it down.
"Everyone Go! I'll hold this! Go Now!"

Tempest's spirits rose as he saw his group triumph over the spider-bat monster. It's smoldering ashes allowed for the group to pass through the tunnel. Tempest looked to those who offered help to him.
"I'm good. Thanks, though." He walked, wincing slightly. However, as soon as he started to relax, a new threat appeared. A giant boulder had started tumbling down the tunnel, threatening to crush the five yoshies that had rushed ahead. Tempest turned his head to follow everyone who passed him, running. Realizing he was too weak to sprint at full speed or fly toward and stop this boulder, he could only watch. Another Yoshi had used wind powers to slow the boulder down, but it still threatened to crush the group ahead. Feeling the wind, Tempest took a deep breath of air, and closed his eyes. The boulder tumbled closer and closer, dangerously close to flattening the group in the lead. However, Tempest's entire body had become still with concentration. The boulder started to spark, as if Tempest was trying to control it with some magnetism. It looked like it was going to stop, but alas, Tempest's eyes were wrenched open as he let out a gasp, and the boulder was released from his grasp and started to roll towards the five yoshies even faster. Tempest could only helplessly watch as it continued to tumble down the tunnel and gain in speed as it rolled near his friends.
Why am I so useless?! Tempest thought angrily.
