[b][color=green]Team Green Monkies[/color][/b] [b]Team Members:[/b] Pompeii + Sutai [b]Choice:[/b] (What Option you pick)
RP HERE
Prompt: Copper Tigers: Going Straight!
You notice the noise growing fainter then slightly louder again, as you walk around the twists of the right path. Eventually you come to another fork in the road, do you wish to go left or right? You notice if you go right there's another gap in the corn not too far from you.
Orange Lizards: No Choice Made, see previous post and quote me.
Green Monkeys: You haven't chosen a path yet.
See first prompt.
OCC TL;RD
I've added some information in the spoiler that may interest you guys. It's a bit of a TL;RD.
You now have 48 hours - apologies for the wait I was trying to figure out what to do.
((I have decided to extend all prompt deadlines to 48 hours. If after 48 hours both you and your partner have not responded starting this prompt, you will lose your participation points for the round.
It is advisable that you RP with your partners to make your choices. If something comes up and you cannot rp with your partners or cannot respond please tell us (me and your partner) ASAP; don't leave us wondering what happened to you okay?
As a reminder Do Not Delete Posts or Change your Answer. It is considered cheating and if I catch it I will disqualify your team from the game. (Please don't make me do this.) Also things that could be considered IC cheating (including using your weapon) to mark your paths may be foiled by random events within the maze. So if you want to tempt fate have fun, just be aware that there's always something watching you. OwO (IE yes I'm going to have fun with you guys if you mark paths, within the realm of realism)))
Also there'll be chances to gain bonus points so no worries guys if you lose any!

Team Orange Lizards Team Members: Delphi + Sessrumnir Choice: N/A
”So I know I said to keep trying along one direction,” Sessrumnir started with a thoughtful glance towards his partner, “But I think we should go left this time. If there’s a dead end, we’ll just come back and take the open path down the right side.”
He nodded down the right path to the other two openings, which... if he’d designed it, he would have made the new pathway just a distraction. But he really didn’t know, either way.
“I was thinking we’d have to cross a moat, to be honest,” he told Delphi as they made their way down the path. “I was ready for it, too. Any water games, I’m your guy,” he told her with a wink.

Team Orange Lizards Team Members: Delphi and Sessrumnir Choice: Left.
He had indeed said only one direction but she could see the reasoning here, the right looked like it had perhaps been attacked by birds, much like before with the crows. "It might set us back a bit, having to make up for making wrong choices but I suppose we can always run back here and go right if we mess up." And she did mean run back, in order to try and make up for the time lost by the wrong choice made. And while he may be set on winning, was he? she wasn't so much. This was for her to meet others, people she would need to work with, and learn a bit more.
"A moat? I haven't even considered that...and I hope we don't need to do that." She could swim, and she wasn't scared of water or any such thing, she just didn't want to make a race out of swimming and run about soaking wet after the swim. The added weight of the water, especially on her coat, would not be something she wished to deal with while trying to cross a moat. Plus with the flag it seemed an impossible thing - to make them swim. "Really...any water games? Even water polo?" She had to ask, even as she felt her lips twitch up into a teasing smile. This wasn't so bad, nor was his company, as she'd thought it might be with all the unfamiliar people.

Team Copper Tigers Team Members: Falias + Dallol Choice: n/a
Falias wasn't really surprised when their chosen path twisted and turned, after all all of their path choices to date seemed to have twisted around to date.
Maybe it was just him, but this time round the path hadn't seemed quite so twisty and it hadn't felt like they'd been walking long before the path forked.
"Hey look there's a gap over there" he said pointed out said gap that was slightly on the right hand path to Dallol. "Want to check it out?"
He wouldn't be fussed if Dallol preferred to stick to one of the paths though - after all they'd ended up at a dead end last time round.
Team Copper Tigers Team Members: Falias + Dallol Choice: Right
The experience of working together with another Page was working out more or less so far. Dallol found herself musing as she made her way down the agreed upon path with Falias, a little distracted as evident by how she did not notice the gap in the corn initially until the other Page pointed it out to her.
"A gap?" She blinked a few times, her gaze cast upon the direction that Falias was pointing to before she eventually nodded both to acknowledge that there was indeed a gap in the corn like he had said as well as concurring with his suggestion to see what laid yonder. "You're right. Let's go and have a look then."

Team Copper Tigers Team Members: Falias + Dallol Choice: right
Falias nodded, beofre starting towards the right-hand fork and in particular towards the gap in the hedge that he'd spotted.
As he walked he couldn't help muse on the fact that this working together thing hadn't been too bad so far, an irony as Falias preferred as a general rule to get things done on his own and it had worked well enough for him in his civilian counterpart's life. It had worked so well in his powered life, to the point where even he had realised that he couldn't continue stumbling around as he had been.
His thoughts shifted to the gap as he wondered what lay beyond it, musing that a short cut to the end of the maze would be nice, albeit unlikely, besides Falias was equally happy to settle for a non dead end - it would be nice not to have to end up retracing their steps again.
Not too far down the left path you reach a spot where the path branches off to the right, you can see down the path to a sign and it looks like something sitting on the sign. However, the path also keeps going straight with no notice other than you can tell you'll have to turn off the path eventually. Which way do you choose to go?
Quote me with your choice.

Team Copper Tigers You've picked the right path!
You start down the path and no sooner than you turn the corner you run into a sign that says, "wrong way, turn around." However, there is also a riddle below the words. I am on three legs when I rest, and one when I work. Find me and I'll help you with the way out.
You can choose to keep going this path, or follow the signs warning and turn around, if you choose to turn around and go back the other way please quote me.

Team Copper Tigers Team Members: Falias + Dallol Choice: n/a
There was a sign a little along the righthand path and Falias found himself glancing over it absently, only for him to stop and walk over to look again at it more closely when the words on the sign sank in.
"Have you seen this?" he called out to Dallol with a slight frown as he wondered whether to take the wording seriously, well that was until he reached the riddle.
"Hey I think I know the answer to that" he said, pointing to the words. Riddles weren't normally his thing, but he was pretty sure that he'd heard this one before "It's a wheelbarrow - I'm certain of it."
He looked over at the blue-haired page "And I'm inclined to stay on the path" they'd already started down it after all, although there was a chance that it would end in another dead end for them. "Although if you want to turn back then I guess we could check out that other path."
Team Copper Tigers Team Members: Falias + Dallol Choice: Stay on the path
"Mmm..." Dallol had come to a complete stop the moment she spotted the sign, a soft hum followed by a brief meeting of her gaze with Falias' in response to his question before she went back to puzzling over the answer behind the riddle, again lamenting to herself over the lack of net access in her current form which would supply her with the answer in a jiffy though that was very likely not allowed in the first place.
Riddles were never her cup of tea to begin with and likely never will given her innate lack of patience when she would rather pursue something more productive with her time. It was a good thing really that Falias managed to supply the answer before she even had the opportunity to ask if he had any luck with figuring it out, or she might have been more inclined towards the option of heading back to take the other path lest they ran themselves into yet another dead end again.
"A wheelbarrow. I believe you're right since it will fit the described object in the riddle perfectly. You're really good at this riddle thing, aren't you" She smiled wide at him, impressed at his ability in solving the riddle, a small skip in her gait now as she indicated her approval of his plan to keep to the path that they were already on. "Let's do that then. See if we can find ourselves that wheelbarrow that the riddle is alluding to."

Team Copper Tigers Team Members: Falias + Dallol Choice: Keeping to the path
Falias laughed "Actually I'm not really" he admitted as he started walking again. "And if it had been another riddle then I'd have probably had a tough time trying to puzzle it out - but I've heard this particular one before - I think it's a gardener thing."
And he now he was thinking about it, he was pretty sure it was one of the ones that he'd heard his Stepmother and her gardener friends bandying about.
He wasn't sure just how a wheelbarrow would help them find the exit, but Dallol's suggestion that they look out for one was a good one and if the path turned out to be a dud then they could always turn back.
Unfortunately, as your team continues to travel the path it becomes evident you've hit a dead end and no wheelbarrow.
It's time to turn back and go another direction, straight or left going back the way you came? Maybe there'll be a wheelbarrow in one of those directions?

Team Green Monkies It didn't take long for one of the assistants on the ground to find the Green Monkies, with the other two teams being further ahead of the current, it was time to pull them out. The assistant aiding them out and around to the finish line was apologetic for having to pull them out.

Team Copper Tigers Team Members: Falias + Dallol Choice: Straight?
"Seems like that sign was right about this being the wrong way" Falias said as the path ended up turning out to be another end. There wasn't a wheelbarrow there either, however on the plus side at least they hadn't had to walk for too far to retrace their steps - unlike the dead end with the bee hive.
"I guess that leaves straight" he said to Dallol as he looked at the two paths. They'd come from the left which meant taking that path would just land them back to where they'd come from earlier.
Team Copper Tigers Team Members: Falias + Dallol Choice: Straight =3
"Better than me at least. Am I allowed to assume that you have a sprawling garden back at home then?" The Uranus Page quipped, her tone lighthearted as she tossed a sideway glance in Falias' direction and continued down the path that the both of them had agreed prior upon. It was a real pity that their choice had led them down yet another dead end and resulted in them losing even more time but she refused to let the little setback get her down as evident by her consolatory words as she started back towards the path whence they both came from.
"Yeah. At least we didn't come away empty handed this time round so that's an improvement of sorts." Pursing her lips together, she nodded a few times at Falias' suggestion to go down the other path instead of tracing their steps back further, putting her two cents in at the same time as to why she felt that that should be the way to go. "I don't really recall seeing a wheelbarrow en route so let's just press on for now."

Team Copper Tigers Going Straight.
It doesn't take long before your team reaches a split, to the right leads another path, with another warning sign; straight appears to eventually turn to the left. You catch a glimpse of another team down the right path. So which way do you choose?
Team Copper Tigers Team Members: Falias + Dallol Choice: n/a
Unlike the twists and turns of earlier, it didn't seem to take long before they reached yet another split in the path.
The straight path looked like it headed left eventually, the right hand path... He frowned thoughtfully and looked again towards the right path. "I think there may be a couple of people down there" Falias said to Dallol. Maybe even one of the other teams. "And there looks like there's another sign down that way too."
Despite his comment however, Falias had no real preference to path - he'd be as happy going right as he would straight.
