[b]-Emeral Forest Cliff Side-[/b]

Randy shook her head as Nevin began to face off against the basilisk. He was crazy. He was also somehow still alive after two seconds, so there was that. As she'd predicted though, between Abel running and Nevin fighting the basilisk, the commotion had spurred the rest of the grimm into action. 

"I'm the definition of ranged, I'll stay up here for a bit. Everyone else get going!" Enyo shouted, clearly not happy about being in the latter half of the group to be running. IN response, Randy shifted both her gauntlets to cannon mode. That left Felix, Gwyn, and Amalger to hurry after Abel.

"And I'm pretty much the opposite, so I'll be going next I suppose," Amalger replied and followed after Abel. Felix motioned that Gwyn should go next. He really wanted as few people behind him as possible...

As Nevin fought the basilisk, Randy and Enyo faced down the charging grimm swarm. Randy just unloaded, the steady bursts of her cannons ringing out as bullets screamed into the hoard. Grimm after grimm fell, but for every one that fell, two or three charged over its corpse. Enyo fired next, but for some reason it seemed her arrows all fell short. Three times she fired, but only hit the ground before the grimm. However, as the grim reached the arrows, she pressed a button, and electricity arced between the arrows. It was a wall of lightning and the grimm that ran into it writhed and fell. However, it wasn't long before the bodies piled up and the arrows shorted out.

However, between the two, the grimm advance was slowed and the path down the cliffs was clear enough so that Enyo could go down following Felix. As Nevin returned, Randy was making her way down as well, and soon Aurelia would be able to follow.

[b]-The Cliff Path-[/b]

The path was narrow, and they had to occasionally press against the cliff face to avoid falling. Every pebble that fell and and echoed as it bounced down sent chills down their spines. Finally though the path began to grow wider and wide until there was just barely room for two at a time. They eventually reached a large rock shelf that was led to a huge, natural stone bridge that led to the other side of the canyon, with similar, narrow paths leading back up. The paths were narrow, so the bulky grimm could not follow. They just needed to cross.

"OK, let's just wait here for the rest," Amalger said. Enyo was just rounding the corner, but Randy, Aurelia, and Nevin still hadn't even come into sight. As long as they could all make it to the bridge, the paths were too narrow for the grimm. At least, that's what Amalger hoped.
