Dumb Luck.
That’s what Vaska thought.
She had been stuck in the same area for about ten minutes, and then she found the exit. Pure dumb luck. As the monster grumbled about this, Molly just straightened her bag, looking immensely relieved to see Allan there with then, and then sorted off into her Divison, following her fellow Mists. It was nice so nice to see Aria.

Madison's gaze narrowed as she came through the portal, faced first with darkness and then with the faintest possible glow... marking a path that they were to follow. Sure, okay. Fine. But she didn't trust that the daggers marked safety. Not any more. And, as she had suspected when she picked up the beefed-up communications device, her cell phone displayed absolutely no reception. Wherever they were, it was most likely In Deep s**t.
Therefore, when the Death Hunter ventured out into the blackness, she wasn't entirely surprised when, after a few minutes, she turned a marked corner only to find herself in an area utterly bereft of light. As she turned around, she heard a sharp, unpleasant click and a horrifyingly familiar movement in the air. As if the air pressure was increasing...
The walls were closing in.
A thrill of panic shot through her, remembering the crushing room from her candidate trials so long ago - but she had Kouki with her this time. She pulled two swords free, scabbards and all, and tried to brace the walls with the blades as the serpent-sword hissed in unease. They were closing in, and she wasn't in a golem-
Run!
She dove forward, hoping desperately to find clear air on the other side. The wall-mechanism began to grind as Kouki's blades held, but she couldn't risk damaging him, and then she hit the ground and kicked out. The walls were stationary! She desummoned Kouki, the beads immediately rocketing to her side as the now-released walls clanged shut behind her.
That was a memory she'd have preferred not to re-live...

She got to her feet slowly, trying to pick up the faint, glowing trail again. Are you okay, Kouki? she asked, silently. A wave of assent combined with a predatory, protective hiss and tightening of coils came in response, and she nodded into the darkness before moving onwards.
Without warning, a tile under her foot compressed; she jumped backwards automatically, which meant she was merely grazed by the spear-trap, not impaled entirely.

There was another sickeningly familiar rumble, and Madison lunged forward blindly as she felt the walls begin to close in on her again. Kouki's FEAR shield cracked, but she made it out through the other end of the corridor, heart pounding.

A noise caught her attention, a soft whispering. Perhaps it was the rest of the Hunters? She moved carefully down one corridor, following the sound, but found herself fetched up against a dead end. Even cautious poking and prodding revealed no hidden door - but it also didn't reveal any traps. Fair enough.

How many corridors with squishing walls were there?! Surely she wasn't walking around in circles and coming back to the same one over and over... or, at least, she devoutly hoped not. Another dash brought her to safety but not without another fracturing of their FEAR shield.

There was that whispering again. Once more Madison tried in vain to follow it to its source, but she found nothing but blank walls.

Maybe there was a hidden door? Madison poked, prodded, and eventually kicked the wall. Nothing. The whispering continued, apparently sourceless.

Frustrated, Madison took a completely different corridor, trying to ignore the whispering sound as it faded away. She wasn't walking away from the others, she wasn't. It had to be some kind of trick!
Something went click under her shoe, and Kouki made a wordless sound of alarm. Madison jumped back, but not far enough as spikes lanced up from the floor. One of them tore an angry gash on the outside of her left thigh, and the Hunter went down for a moment in pain. Ow, ow, ********> she thought, gritting her teeth. A cry of human pain might bring something terrible down on her. She would just have to endure...

She took her scarf off and wrapped it around her leg, afraid to use her bandages lest she need them more desperately later. Instead, she pressed on, following the sound again as she limped, but finding nothing.

A hiss was her only warning; the spear nearly had her, but Kouki's shield deflected it, the serpent-sword snarling in her mind.

When she felt the walls begin to close in again, Madison tried to run, but she could barely manage it. Her leg was screaming in pain, and every step hurt far more than she expected. Maybe this was it, and she really was going to be squished... but she felt Kouki's FEAR shield around her, pushing the walls back, a nearly physical presence as if the serpent-sword had taken his true monster form and was using his scaled coils to protect her.
It lasted long enough for her to stumble free - and there, thank god, were the others. Pale, Madison limped up to join her Death division comrades, hoping that the next phase of the mission wouldn't require too much movement.

Otto recognized this place. Instantly, his blood ran cold. It was eerily similar to the horrible cave they'd been in last time they went to the Jungle.
Darkness.
Dark... everywhere.. no light.. none.
Otto instantly went into panic mode, hyperventilating as he hurriedly tried to get out of this place. Without much to guage his surroundings, he stepped into a trap almost right away. Rocks began falling from the ceiling. Tenya gave him little warning before one knocked him in the leg, sending him to the ground.
He hissed in pain, his heart still racing from his panic. Otto shifted his way from the trap, pushing himself somewhere safe to try and make his leg feel better.
Hurt, scared... Otto was not fairing well right off the bat.

Otto slowly walked further into the labyrinth, a subtle limp in his step as he babied his minor injury. To keep calm, he repeated a mantra in his head over and over; It'll be over soon, It'll be over soon, It'll be over soon... Soon he heard whispering outside of his own mental noise and Tenya's usual babbling (which he usually blocked out anyway). He hoped it was the other hunters, and walked a little quicker to catch up.
He was met with a dead end. His heart fell once again.

As if Otto wasn't on edge enough, he managed to trigger another trap. Spike flew from an unseen angle, and without Tenya to warn him, he might have been skewered. Otto barely managed to dodge, getting hit in the side from a close encounter with one last spike.
Otto was shaking like a leaf in a hurricane. His nerves completely shot from the danger and the lack of light. He crumpled to the ground, unable to move for a while as he dealt with utter panic.
