"Those guys weren't so hard," Rose says to Shada. "But they get tougher, don't they?" She bites into her apple while she waits for a response.

Running from the despised room, seriously relieved to not have to stay there any longer, Tayro grabs both a pear and an apple from the fruit basket, and glancing quickly to see if there's no Hakiem in sight, darts off as fast and silent as possible to intertwine.

As he reached the other floor, like Shada, attempts to take a bite out of the pear.
Yummy!
In an attempt to justify the bringing of two fruits instead of one, the boy simply mutters - "I must eat to grow healthy!"
Eventually, one bite is not enough, as the apparently starved Hylian finishes off both the pear and the apple.

Shada nods to Rose. "You'd better believe it. We're lucky there were only three of them." She gulps. With the Avenging Strength, in a large group the Hakiems can become practically invincible. Not a fun thought.

Leading the group into the room beyond the stairs, you see that this room is rather small. The walls are rock, and the floors dirt again. The only special features of this room are three doorways, one on each wall of the room.

"So then, what way shall we go? Or do we split up? No, that would be a foolish thing. We need to find Alpha before we leave, and I doupt both of those things are at the same place, so we most likley have a 66% chance of finding something we need."

It can't hurt to see what each room has to offer. Raven goes towards the left door and tries to open it just enough so he can see inside. Hoping that any enemy on the other side doesn't notice the movement of the door.

Grenada simply shrugs. "Let's try...this door!" He walks up to the door on the right. Turning the handle, he realizes that the door is locked. "Well, that cuts the choice into a fifty-fifty choice." He continues on to the door opposite the stairs. "Make that a single choice. This one's locked too."

Raven's door, on the other hand, is thankfully ready to open. It wouldn't do to be stuck in this room for very long. As he turns the handle, you notice a bit of dust fall off the top of it. Apparently it has been some time since this door was opened...perfect.

On the other side of the door is a wooden bridge. The entire room is flooded, with the floor descending about five feet down. The bridge leads to a square stone platform on the other wall. The room is rectangular, and extends for a very long distance to the left. In that direction lies another wooden bridge that extends from the platform to an upside-down-L shaped platform. You can spot a door on the opposite wall in that direction.

On the right side of the platform can be seen the remains of another wooden bridge. The hole in the wall it would have led to holds another hallway. You couldn't reach it without getting wet...

...and that doesn't look like such a good idea. The water is swarming with angry looking fish, and you come in just in time to see several fish ripping their fellows apart. These carnivorous fish have teeth as sharp as your daggers, and a hunger like none you've ever seen. These are the Piranhells, and there seems to be no end to their numbers.

"Just don't fall in," Rose says. "Or hope that the bridge doesn't give out." Hopefully, Rose didn't just jinx them.

"Im not sure about the safty of the Bridge, but let me go first, if i do fall, I can Sheild my self from those things in the water."

Fortunately, Rose's words do nothing to the bridge. And it seems that the Piranhells don't like to emerge from the water; it's almost like they have to stay wet at all times.

'Hmm' Is the evaluation that Raven makes of the scene before him. Realising the the door to the room is getting crowded he politey mentions it to the others. 'Hey. Why y'all here for, what about the other door. The middle one!'
'What its locked great(!)' and decides to follow Denning across the bridge.

Blank gasped in shock as he gazed upon the Piranhell infested water (OOC: I love that name!), feeling uneasy about the group's current location. He walked to the bridge and attempted to count the creatures' quantity, but as he knew he would, he failed; he was able to count to ten before giving up on the foolhardy task. Suddenly, an idea came to his head. "Shada, you can choose the element for your Elemental Attack, right? Would it be possible for you to bombard the water with an Ice attack? If it were possible, the water would freeze over and we could walk to the door." Blank shrugged as he finished explaining his plan. There was a great amount of water, and he knew that freezing it all would be a difficult task.

"If it's too much, maybe you could freeze a pathway, instead?" For some reason, Blank would prefer taking the rightmost opening. The left seemed... too easy, and there would probably be a better reward for taking the difficult route; namely, being one room closer to Alpha's location.

OOC: I'm heading off to work now, so if it's not too much trouble, could you control him on occasion? Just to keep him from straggling, that's all. Thanks. see you guys later for more action!

OOC: I know...and yet, when I designed them, the name seemed so obvious...

IC:
"Hmmm...I could try it, I guess," Shada says after a moment. She holds out her hands to form the Elemental Burst, selecting the water element in its frozen form. The ice-blue orb cradled in her hands shoots out smaller orbs, attempting to follow Blank's advice.

Indeed, soon enough the water is completely frozen over by a thin sheet of ice. Shada slowly reaches out to tap it with her foot...

...and the teeth of a Piranhell crash through the glass-like layer, snapping firmly onto her foot. She immediately begins screaming in pain and retracts her foot from the ice, waving it around as she tries not to fall off the bridge again.

Yet as the fish hits the air, it suddenly seems to dissolve. It is almost as if the completely-normal atmosphere of the room is like acid to the Piranhells. Within seconds it has completely crumpled away, all life having left its body. Its life was spent dealing 1 DMG to the Sheikah, and exposing the fact that they'll need a much thicker layer of ice if they hope to cross the water like that.

Shada: 40 HP, 7 SPL

"Well then, if we can attract them to the air...we can kill them all. Perhaps holding some meat above the water would work. Im sure theres meat around here somewhere."

"That would waste time," Rose says. "As long as we stay out of the water, we should be okay. Let't just go through the doorway we can reach and see if Alpha is somewhere that way."

Nope. No meat in this room...no meat anywhere, for that matter, unless you wish to traverse back to the kitchen area and try to steal some of the leftover steaks. As you are, that would be a mission equivalent to suicide.

Shada, sitting on the ground and rubbing her sore foot, nods her head in agreement with Rose's idea. "Let's take that route for now. If there's nothing there, we can always head back." She climbs to her feet and leads the way across the second bridge.
