The three stood at the top of the ruined tower, Marlin was looking another direction from the other two ladies, scanning the lay of the land, seeing if he could spot any possible dens or nest locations. Eve spoke about spying on her, he thought she was referring to him staring at her from time to time but instead he heard a rustling noise from a nearby tree. Marlin's ear twitched in the direction before his body could. The last thing he saw was her getting smashed through the floor with Diana quickly jumping after her, [color=8493ca]"What the fuck!"[/color] His reaction loud, for one second it was peaceful but for another everything went to hell. Marlin darted to the hole, his tail keeping his balance behind him so he wouldn't fall. He noticed the ground beneath him was still crumbling but at least Diana had caught their beloved leader.

Marlin sighed, they were still stuck however, [color=8493ca]"Good catch,"[/color] he said in a soft tone, his attitude getting serious about the situation. He quickly extended his aura to his hands and feet, throwing wind dust crystals into them. Before he could approach the hole and reach down, Diana let them both go, her sword giving way from the wall, at the same instance the very ground beneath him collapsed. Using his weight to rotate his body he was able to plant a foot on the wall, with one kick like he was taking off at the start of an Olympic sprint he fell faster than the girls. Diana seemed strong enough to take care of herself and he could already sense her switch her aura to protect her body. However he wasn't detecting the same thing from Eve. He went after Eve, another strong kick at the wall and his amplified feet gave him another boost to catch up to her. [color=8493ca]"I gotcha!"[/color] He shouted grabbing hold of her around the waist with his tail and one hand, he pulled her tight and extended his free arm out with his legs stretched straight. Their falling speed decreased tremendously like a parachute had opened. The wind dust in his body was allowing him to fall at a slower rate, gradually bring them both to solid ground. [color=8493ca]"Hero of the hour I must say so myself,"[/color] he said cockily looking down at Eve, his damsel in distress.
