CRASH.Fortunately for you, a big pile of bones ‘breaks’ your fall. Unless you can make some light, it’s pretty dark in here, except for a vague light source somewhere across the room. Even though it seems like every sound you make echoes, the people above can’t hear you. "Hee hee hee..."From the darkness, you can hear several hyena-like laughs. They're pretty far off. Almost as far as... the light source... "Hee hee hee haa haa haaaaa..." ?????????????????
HP: 150IF YOU FELL The bones around your feet begin to rumble and clatter. Something's coming - something big, and fast. The laughing light source tramples right through the middle of your group before crashing into the wall on the far side of the room, dazed. ROLL ONE 6-SIDED DIE IN A SEPARATE POST BEFORE YOU ATTACK IT!1-2: You leap out of the way just in time! Nice reflexes. 3-4: The creature hits you like a mack truck before knocking you aside. - 5 HP 5-6: You get out of body-slam range, but a kicked-up bone hits you instead. Ouch.- 2 HP (( Not sure what's going on? Read back here! ))

Leo's attempt to get over the bridge failed spectacularly. The ice had cracked too far and she just wasn't fast enough; so down she went, with a quiet, shocked gasp.
Fortunately however, her fall was broken by the large pile of bones at the bottom. Bones of those who'd gone before their little expedition? Only, as she dazedly laid there (rather awkwardly angled), a distant sound echoed - the sound of.. someone laughing?
Well, wasn't that just great. Someone was laughing at her. At them? It was more than just a bit dark here, and she couldn't quite who it was; they didn't sound like they were all that close though. Which was odd, wasn't it? If it'd been someone from the group who'd fallen before her, surely they would have been closer. But.. the sound wasn't close.
Finally sitting up, Leo attempted to take stock of her surroundings. Not much more than a few unrecognizable blurs in the darkness, blurs that could be anything - more bones, other boils and ghouls from the group, a ragged piece of the surrounding cliff. "Hello? Is anyone else here?" It couldn't just have been her to fall, surely.
But as she talked the dim lightsource, the one that she'd completely not noticed, seemed to be getting closer and closer. And so was the laugh. The laugh that seemed to get shriller and shriller the closer it got; and then the bones were rumbling and she was scrambling to her feet.
She managed to get out of the way of the thing, whatever it was, but one of the bones from the clattering pile managed to hit her quite solidly on the arm.

As she fell off the bridge she realized sadly she hadn't made it across. The bridge was actually a lot harder to cross then she thought it would be. She closed her eyes and waited to see how her impact would happen. Lucky a pile of bones broke her fall and surprisingly she was okay! "Yay!" she said with a smile as she started to help herself off the pile.
"Wow it's dark," she said as she attempted to draw some fire from her hand. Though as she attempted she heard some distant sounding laughter. What the she thought to herself as she tried to look around. Had someone else maybe fallen before her, or was it something beyond her belief.
"Hello? Is anyone else down here?" she questioned aloud as she froze her movements for a moment. Part of her hoped someone else was, but if worse came to worse and she was alone. She just had to focus on getting back up with the group. Though as she looked up she noticed something coming loser to her and all her ideas or plans went out the window. First and foremost she had to survive.
As she heard whatever it was coming far to close towards her she quickly jumped to side hoping to avoid whatever was coming her way. Thankful she did or so she thought, but just when she was out of harms way a kicked-up bone came and hit her in the side of the head with a thud thud against her skull. "Ow." she said quietly under her breath as she rubbed her head slightly.

Siobhan groaned and whined as she got up from her fall, rubbing anything that hurt. That was not a fun fall at all! This was nothing like Adventure Class! The banshee didn't much mind the dark, but her natural aura glowed a faint teal colour, illuminating anything near her body.
Something else glowed in the distance... It was... so pretty. And it laughed, so it must be friendly!
"HI NEW FRIEND!" She screeched as it barreled toward her.
She was trampled soon after.

Siobhan scrambled to her feet, looking back as the giant whatever it was tried to get up again. "NEW FRIEND YOU FELL!" The banshee ran to help, but tripped and kicked a bone in one of it's joints.

Amrita hit the pile of bones pretty hard, rolling off of them and to the ground. Euuugh...whyyy... She knew what she was signing up for when she told Aymet she'd follow him to Icey Hell and back, but in retrospect that was a pretty dumb thing to say. This was an icy hell, and she was apparently in it with several students she didn't know very well.
As always, the concern here was for them, not for herself. She didn't know how they reacted to battles, if they had been in any, or if they could handle their own. Some sort of protective instinct kicked in as she scrambled to her feet, throwing herself backwards to avoid a barrelling monster but still managing to be smacked by a wayward bone.
"There's a few of us down here! Stick together, don't get separated!" She called out to the group, using the light of the creature to try and see where they were. The worst thing to do was get separated in the dark, she knew that much at least. "Okay guys, this---Siobhan!" The rather loud banshee caught her attention. "That's not a good idea! I don't think it wants to be our friend." Don't make friends with the enemy, Siobhan. Bad ghoul!HP: 48/50

((Tseng!))
The landing was softer than the horseman of conquest could have expected. Jumping up to his feet, he dusted himself off. Pretty soon, he could hear and see something nearby. Something that wasn't one of the students that were along for this trip.
Something that was also coming at them really fast.
"Stand down beast! Or I, Tseng Lee sha--"
He didn't get to finish as he ended up getting rammed fairly hard.

((Shun))
The fall had stunned Shun to some extent, even if it didn't hurt. It didn't take long before he could hear some others talking though. But who the hell was laughing in a time like this?
Wait.
That wasn't one of them. The Reaper sluggishly pushed himself to his feet, hearing Amrita calling out to the girls that had dropped as well. Before he could really fully recover from the fall, something hit him hard, tossing him to the side. Grunting, he hit the ground before managing to spring back to his feet.
"Kuso... that is definitely no friend of ours," he hissed while calling forth his daggers.
"Amrita, keep an eye on the scarelings," he ushered.

Getting back up after being knocked to the side like that, Tseng puffed up a bit before striking the air a few times as he got into his fighting stance.
"So that is how it will be hm? Well, TAKE THIS! BONEMERANG!" he shouted as he picked up a random bone to hurl it at the beast. There were young students to be protected!

Shun shot a glance to the horseman in the area, furrowing his brow some. Shaking his head to himself, he began to move towards the large creature that was by the wall now. His advance slowed as he drew near, watching it carefully.
The beast was big, and they didn't know what it was quite capable of aside from ramming them. It didn't help that he couldn't quite make out what it was. Taking it a little more slowly was likely ideal at the moment. At least until they had a better idea of what they needed to strike.

Leo had been dazed again for a few seconds after the thing had rammed past her, but the loud banshee ghoul's voice pulled her back into the situation. "Right, sticking together!" She clattered over the bones on the ground to get closer to the ghoul who had ordered them to stick together. Someone who'd taken charge of this mess, yay! She wasn't quite sure how she felt about being called a scareling by the boil, but she knew that this thing was way too big for any of them to take on alone. They'd have to work together to take it down, if they even could, and that meant following orders when they were given. That she could do. "What do we do now? Do we, uh, attack it?" She still had George, her trusty hobby horse. She could probably put a dent in the thing. Probably only a little one, mind.

"It isn't." The patchwork confirmed to Siobhan, nodding very seriously. "In fact, I think it's trying to---" She paused, tilting her head as she stared at the Banshee. Her...her eyes were glowing, too? Hrm.
"Will do! Don't over-do it, Shun." A salute was given to the Reaper before she turned back to the group of ghouls, more specifically the one she recalled seeing at her Yearbook booth. The question received a nod and a backwards hand that waved to the hyena laughing pile of glowing eyes. "Yeah, I'm pretty sure we need to bring it down before it brings us down." She gave a half turn, frowning at the creature; it did cross her mind that it was just lonely, or perhaps misunderstood, but she knew better than that. With danger so immediate, something in the back of her brain started to kick in. Instincts she didn't often recognize that she had. "We're gonna need all the help we can get to win, but be careful! It's dark out there and we don't know what it can do. If you need help, call for me - my name is Amrita - or call for Shun. That guy." Yes, Shun, she was volunteering you for this too. And pointing you out to a group of First Years. Her hands then went to Siobhan's shoulders, pulling the ghoul to stand in front of her.
"If you get lost in the dark or can't figure out where we are, look for her." Siobhan was being volunteered for this as well, because the Vetala noticed that her glow was a somewhat different colour to the beast's; if she could notice it, others clearly could too. Amrita had never been much of a leader, but she knew what she would have liked to have when she first started fighting for her life; she was doing her best to pass it on to the somewhat younger ones. It was better going in knowing what to do and that you had backup, than being thrown into Christmas town with nothing but a smile.
"Don't be scared! We can do this!"

Siobhan stared at the Vetela with awe. She was such a strong leader ghoul! The banshee felt a swell of pride as Amrita gaver her the role of group lamp, smiling widely and letting her ectoplasm glow brightly.

Since he wasn't quite ready to strike just yet, Shun just put himself between the beast and the girls. The horseman was free to do whatever he wanted. He wasn't concerned about him. The year one students, however, needed to be looked after. It wasn't generally like him to do this sort of thing for strangers, but as far as he was aware, they were also currently a team in this. No one, including himself, weren't going to get far lone wolfing it unfortunately.
As for the question of attacking, he thought on it. They could try chipping it from afar to start whittling it down, but...
"If you decide to attack, only strike from afar if you're capable. Try to not to attract its attention though," he instructed while crouching down, readying his daggers. There wasn't a whole lot he could do to stop this thing if it decided to charge again, but if needed, he could try and distract it from the rest.
