Welcome to Gaia! ::

((didn't really have much to say before, and i still don't :B i kinda wanna make some action happen, since everybody is "walking, oh no, i almost got hit. keep walking"))

After a bit of trudging towards the cave a large meaty asteroid landed among them, only afterwords did Dimi realise that it was yet another kuniku with wings. This one was a light gray with yellow accents, he seemed nice, atleast he hadn't smashed anybody to smithereens. Dimi hoped to maybe talk to him after they got to the saftey of the caves, he seemed like he might have some interesting stories.
With all of hte lazy excitement that had happened in the past few minutes, suddenly a huge strike of lightning came down onto a tall tree very near the group, this momentarily, as Dimi had hoped wouldn't, caused all of the kuniku to scatter.

"Noo!!" Dimi yelled as everyone fled. She was trapped. Underneath the heavy branches, embedded in the mud, Dimi fought to keep her head above the sucking mush. She yelled and yelled hoping someone would hear her and come. She was unsure of exactly how she was going to get out of this predicament, if they ever found her, with just her face poking out of the mud enough that she could barely see.

((about time i made Dimi the damsel rather than the hero XD. hopefully this will give time for people to catch up, and maybe jumpstart the rp out of "walking, oh snap flying kuniku, walking"))

(OOC: oh baby, something interesting! ;D)

Despite her small size, Saza managed to quickly bolt away from the tre that had been struck by lightning. She however didn't entirely abandon everyone and had run just a bit farther away than Bijou had. Saza looked back to see that Dimi was caught beneath the tree. No! Saza thought, although her face didn't express her fear. I'm not big enough. I can't pull her out...

Saza stayed where she was for a moment, trying to think of a way to aid the green kuniku when she came up with a idea that might possibly work. Since she obviously couldn't lift the tree, perhaps she could help dig Dimi out? Saza sprinted back over to Dimi and began to dig, using her tiny paws to clear away little scoops of mud bit by bit. Saza kept digging for what felt like several minutes, but it didn't seem like her efforts were doing much at all.

The mud that she cleared away from Dimi would either slide back into place, or the rainwater would fill up the small hole in the earth. This isn't working... The kuniku pup folded back her ears, sad that her attempt to help Dimi was no good.

Dimi was thankful that someone had heard her. Good! Maybe I'll get out of this afterall! She tried to help by thinking of a plan to tell them so that they could execute it and then everybody would be safe to dash to the caves. With all of hte worry and exhaustion running through Dimi's head she just couldn't manage to get a useful thought out. THe best she could do was stay calm so the mud didn't suck her in further.

Seeing Masao's kind face and long soft hair Dimi listened closely. Masao's little bird was trying its best to pull her ou, poor thing had no idea how small it really was. Snapping back to reality just in time to hear Masao say to grab hold of his hair, Dimi thought, oh, wow how painful that would be! I don't want to hurt anyone. But with no other choices clearly presenting theselves, Dimi grabbed hold of as much hair as possible. That way, she thought, the pain would be spread over a larger area, thus causing less pain? Oh how this situation was affecting her thinking!

Saza watched as Masao offered Dimi his hair as something to hold onto. She was surprised that he would go so far for another kuniku, and instantly Saza felt more respect for him. She looked away from Masao's face to Dimi and thought about what to do next. She's not sinking anymore, but that tree is still ontop of her... Digging her out didn't work, so we need to get help. "I'll go find the others." Saza offered to Masao, seeing as he couldn't move much farther with Dimi holding onto his hair.

Saza looked to the winged female close to her, knowing that she couldn't collect everyone by herself. "Bijou, would you come with me?" Saza asked, putting her shyness aside since this was a serious situation. Saza waited for Bijou's answer while doing her best to look for the others. Despite the fact that the wind and rain were slightly blurring her vision, she thought she spotted an orange pelt nearby. I don't know his name, so I can't call out to him... she thought, recalling Emil's face.

Thunder boomed over the group and the wind started to blow harder. It didn't seem possible, but the weather was indeed getting worse and worse.

The scene was pretty frightening for Bijou. She had never experienced anything like this before, her home was so calm and peaceful. And to make things worse she felt helpless. Her body was too small to lift a tree or to have Dimi pull on it.

Then the pup called Bijou over. She had an idea of how they could help Dimi, even though they were the smallest Kuniku there. Bijou wanted to help and agreed right away, "S-sure! Let's go." If only they could get all the others back to help. Bijou looked over at Emil, he appeared to be confused from the lightning. Were his eyes alright?

The storm raged on overhead, seemingly taunting the bedraggled group of kuniku working to get Dimi out from under the tree.

Orion, too, cursed his small stature and light bones that enabled his flight, but put his shoulder under the tree, all the same. Even his strength could aid the green one. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the fairy-winged kuniku round up a small group of the remaining kuniku and head towards the caves. Good... a part of his mind thought vaguely, all of his concentration wrapped up in trying to move the trunk.

Soon, he spotted a branch poking out of the massive trunk. Leverage, he thought. One of the kuniku is already trying to pull the green one out from under the tree... perhaps if we used the branch that was sticking out to rotate the trunk in the other direction...

"That branch!" Ori roared over the cracking of the storm. "That branch, sticking out! We can use it as leverage to rotate the trunk back and get the green one out!" He silently cursed his lack of knowledge of their names. Ah, well. I'll ask all of them when we get to the caves. If we get to the- No. He wouldn't allow negative thoughts. The green one would be saved.
