"If you need another rope, I can grow a vine..." Solace says. "Unfortunetly, they seem to be immune to most of my attacks. So... please hurry." While Solace is talking he also formulates his next attacks. (He really doesn't need to move, so he's still attached to Eri.) Two spinning blades of energy fly toward the zombies, that are drawn to whatever energy animates them (so they'll automatically keep slicing the zombies over and over). Solace also fires two balls with similar properties, except that one ball will freeze the zombies and the other will give them a strong electric shock. Solace sends a blast of holy/light energy at a group of zombies as well (he's looking for weaknesses). "Well, you may soon have to choose between that fungus and getting away from the zombies. And, I'd like to remind you that you can't use it dead." Solace checks the fungus for any unusual properties (like being intragal to the making of the zombies), and looks above them for anything he could convientily get to drop on the zombies. In fact, he looks all over for anything that looks in any way promising.

Solace: Roughly 50 yards above you, mostly hidden by a maze of pipes, is a cluster of large, immoblie and rusty gears. The pipes you are standing on are supported by collumns rising to the ceiling, not downwards. The collumns are only a foot in diameter but there are enough of them to support all the weight currently on them. The pipes themselves below Solace feel as if they are full of running water, moving quite quickly.
"Still thinking this through Foxling. Patience patience yes!?"
The slicing blades to a significant amount of initial damage, but the zombies began to quickly repair themselves until the blades effect lessens and lessens. The freezing blast slows them down considerably, and pieces of them crack. Still, the swirling mists manage to keep them thawed and mostly whole. The holy/light energy dispels the mists, but does no damage at all the to the zombies as they lurch forwards. A few particularily fast ones scamper towards Solace, they look like decayed Ratlings. They lunge at him with jagged claws and rotting teeth.

They learn to repair themselves faster? The blades will slice them after they regen, after all... anyway, what's up with the fungus? Solace should be able to figure out any interesting propertys it has...
Anyway... you're right. Just a blast of light energy wouldn't do anything to them unless they where animated by something alergic to it. These attacks have a bit more punch. No time for subtltys... Solace fires blades and balls of the holy/light energy at the zombie rats; they will slice them as easily as the normal ones, and hopefully their charge will impede the regeneration. All of the blades and balls (lets say 4 each) will keep finding new targets 'till they run out (a fair while if they're only cutting zombies) after hitting the nearer ones. Solace makes three points of light energy that will randomly fly around, spreading light energy mists to counter the dark mists. (Solace has actually done this before. I'll get a link if you want.) Any zombies that get too close Solace shoots a holy-charged psi blast at. Solace considers messing with the landscape, but he doesn't want to mess up Eri's plan. Solace grows vines along any path it looks like the zombies could take to them.
Solace: >>hit enter after i wrote the action and forgot about the fungus. consider this partially as an edit. The fungus seems to have hallucigenic properties, and is extremely hard albeit malleable for a plant. It smells sweet. It would make a good makeshift grenade with some fire, as it seems highly flammable, but there is something else about it. It seems...sentient.<<
The immediate onslaught destroy about 50 or so zombies in a deluge of blades and light.
"Alright gots it!!" Eri points high up, about 75 yards, on the wall to a grate.
"Get us there and I does the rest!!"

You mean the big growth, or the individual parts Eri removed?
Solace has a vine grow down from the grate to where they are. "Just climb up..." Solace turns his attention to the fungus. "Ummm... hello?" (Eri didn't hear that part. No point in confusing him.) Solace will be able to hear it if it trys to talk to him, even if it isn't psychic.

Eri scrambles up, firing a few bullets at the top to cover Solace.
"Hurrys hurrys! We have lots of runnings and jumpings to do!"
Solace hears the fungus. It sounds deep and guttural, ancient and wise. Its voice is soothing yet quite powerful within Solaces head.
"Flee, run, scamper away! For your theft, my servents will repay!" THe thing rhymes ominously in Solaces head. It seems to be quite intelligent, and its mind is very active. Remember, this is just the tiny little piece.

Solace is still attahed to Eri... he's not a climbing fox right now, although he could probably get up there by jumping up the pipes. "Ummm... sorry, we didn't know? We'll put you back if you call off the zombies..." Solace says to the fungus. "Hey, Eri, that fungus you picked talks, and it says that it's controling the zombies." Solace will translate for the fungus and Eri.

Solace: Eri almost falls off the vines when you tell him that.
"Is you crazy nutso Foxling!? Fungus no talk, is fungus! Even Ratling knows that..." Eri scrambles into the pipes and begins to navigate the extraordinarly narrow passages with water up to their necks. Behind them, the Zombies clamber up the vines, moving quickly.
"Put me back or throw me away, neither of you will live another day!" The fungus projects to Solace.
"You gonna have to lose the viney stuff Solace! We not going to fit in these narrow, narrow pipes!" Eri says as he struggles to move.

"You mean you'll still kill us if we help you? I'd like to remind you that the rat here wants to eat you (I think). I was offering an alternitive to that." Solace's vines fall off of them, and Solace hops onto the pipe they are going to travel in. Solace looks at Eri. "Yeah, it talks, and it doesn't sound too nice either. How often do you guys get this stuff if it sends an army of zombies after you? What do you use it for, anyway?" Solace notices the zombies climbing the same vine they had, and, with a short chuckle, has it break just above where the zombies are.

Grappler: The woman leads you to the District guard HQ, an elegant, stone building in the middle of a block of houses, taller than other buildings around it. In the lobby is a gorgeous woman with a rifle, sitting calmly smoking a small object. The lobby is almost empty except a few clerks and guards going their places. The walk here was brisk, but the streets are quickly filling with people running to the smoldering alley.

Solace: The Zombies climbing the vines tumble down the room in a flailing mass of arms and legs. The other zombies cease their moaning as you flee.
"Deadlings stop moans and groans! We livelings now!!" Eri exclaims as he navigates the narrow pipe.
"I am but one piece of a larger whole, one fragment of a larger soul. Eat me, sell me, whatever you insist! But know foolish fox I will persist..." The psychic voice says to Solace.
Suddenly, Solace hears a slithering sound from behind him accompanied by a dull roar.
Grappler: "A boy you say? Well we had best be off quickly, we may already be too late." She runs after Grappler.
"If you were sent by the captain, did he give you a piece of paper to give to me? I was...under the impression that was to be the signal." The woman comments as they run.
"Who is this idiot?" the other woman asks Grappler.
Dabura: The wave impacts your shield, and watery knives attempt to puncture the cacoon of mana. However, the storm subsides with no bodily damage. About 50 yards ahead is the boat. The thin man looks surprised at your survival. He flicks his wrist and conjures a small pedastal of water which he leaps onto. He claps his hands and a ball of water is created in his hands. He bombards it with a blueish energy, and the water again rises, although now it rises in the shape of three amorphous creatures which look similar to giraffes.
"Kill the fool." He begins to infuse the ball with energy. Two of the creatures vanish under the water. The third lunges at Dabura, its watery maw full of watery teeth.

"Yes, well, if your whole body is your brain, I'd think that you would be happy to avoid a fight; even if you kill me, I'll take a lot of you with me." Solace carefully climbs into the pipe after Eri. "Hey, Eri, can those shamberlings follow us through these tunnels? 'cause, I'm pretty sure the fungus you took is part of one, and it's following us." As a safety precaution, Solace has more of the kerosine leaking vines grow behind them.

Solace suddenly feels something through the vines, a large object moving towards the two quickly. The roar intensifies and bumping and thumping can be heard closing quickly on the two of them.
Grappler: They arrive at the site of the explosion. A huge crowd has formed around the alley.
"Make way for Selene Astrusca!" A guard yells as he accompanies Grappler and the woman with the rifle and the noble.
"Glad you made it Selene. His heart...poisoned badly." Selene bends over a the captains warning and takes out a dagger. She begins a surgery on the boy.

Solace sets off the vines the creature is passing, and grows a thick tangle of vines behind them, blocking the entire passage, and leaking fungicide. Solace checks to see if the fungus Eri picked is connected to the larger mass remotely. (Even if the thing behind them isn't it, he can still see if it is.) Solace follows closely behind Eri, and starts charging for a stronger attack. "How far does this tunnel go? is there any other way it could get to us?"

Solace: Eri opens his mouth but is interrupted. Large fungal tendrils ram through the pipe walls and begin to thrust around in the pipe. Then the whole thing breaks, and a huge head made partially of fungus but mostly of teeth slams through the metal walls. It bites at Solace and Eri, breathing a cloud of fungal spores which burn the skin and sear the eyes and lungs. Eri begins to cough as he wards off the tendrils with his blade.
The small piece of fungus is definately part of a larger whole. It seems as if it is still connected although quite far away. The beast seems to possess the same intelligence, although greater ferocity.

I thought the pipes generally went through walls?
Solace alters the spores slightly in the air to make them less deadly. Solace jumps up, and fires a high-powered TK ball charged and filled with fire-energy at the largest part of the monster he can see. (He will detonate it when it gets inside the monster, or next to it if it dodges.) Solace encases the fungus Eri took in weak TK balls, and lifts them around to him. Solace talks to the greater mass through the fungus. "Listen, you," Solace sends random tendrils of fire, electrisity, ice, and anything else unpleasent he can think of through the link with his words. "Call off your damn monsters, or I'll go back and attack you derectly." [The tendrils are pretty much the long range equivelent of slamming the fungus up against a wall to get his point across.]

The X is the pipe you are in. Above you is where the monster came from.<<
The tendrils of various types of energy do indeed reach the main fungal monster. All Solace can hears is a low, guttural laugh. The Shambler stops its onslaught as the entire pipe rumbles with a very audible voice.
"Your spells of ice, lightning and fire only make your plight more dire." The walls shudder and the pipes crack as fungal tendrils poke through the walls and metal, and toothy heads peek through the cracks. Dark mist begins to swirl into the pipes as Eri continues to lead on at a far faster pace.

1. What happened to the fungus being highly flammable?

The tendrils shouldn't be enough to set it off, but the TK ball defenetly was.
2. Even if it doesn't burn, an explosion from the inside should do something.
Oh, and the comment wasn't aimed at Eri... he probably shouldn't have heard it. =p Ah, well, doesn't matter in the long run. I suppose I dodn't tell you which was which anyway. "Eri, just get out of here! I'll hold it off." Solace turns back to the moss. "This is your last chance to stop of your own free will. If you don't take it, I'll have to stop you the hard way." Solace starts to glow; he is surrounded by an aura of light and fire energys. "I know very well that every fungus needs cool, damp, and dark conditions to survive. Therefore... let there be light!" Solace lets off a pulse of heat and light to kill the weaker tendrils of fungus bothering Eri.

The tendrils curl up and shrivel away, and the mist subsides momentarily. The creatures heads, including the one with the TK ball within it, fall back. All is still.

Eri emerges from the pipe ahead in a larger pipe more akin to the sewers you would find in a city. It has a diameter of about 10 yards, and running water is about 2 feet tall.
"Glad we made it out of-" Eri stops and points a trembling claw down the pipe. A figure wearing tattered robes wielding two rusting claw gauntlets stalks towards them, surrounded by a palpable aura of dark mists. The water around him stagnates as he walks, and the air become ever colder.
"DIRELING!!!" Eri screams as he runs in the opposite direction.

Ah, ok, sorry. I sorta ment that I didn't know whether he would miss or not, so I covered bith contigencys. (See, if it's just a contact explosion, and he misses, it doesn't go off.)
-"I personally would be happy if you just stopped trying to kill me. I don't want to hurt you if I don't have to." Solace detonates the TK ball (after moving a bit out of the likely blast radius), and fires another TK ball (filled with the same light/fire energy that should work the best on these things) past Eri at the Direling. (This one is a contact explosive.) Solace also grows vines that wrap around the direling's arms and legs. [They will be seriously damaged by the explosion, even if the direling does nothing to them, but Solace will heal them.] "Although, if you keep fighting me, I will defend myself."

"Glad we made it out of-" Eri stops and points a trembling claw down the pipe. A figure wearing tattered robes wielding two rusting claw gauntlets stalks towards them, surrounded by a palpable aura of dark mists. The water around him stagnates as he walks, and the air become ever colder.
"DIRELING!!!" Eri screams as he runs in the opposite direction.

-"I personally would be happy if you just stopped trying to kill me. I don't want to hurt you if I don't have to." Solace detonates the TK ball (after moving a bit out of the likely blast radius), and fires another TK ball (filled with the same light/fire energy that should work the best on these things) past Eri at the Direling. (This one is a contact explosive.) Solace also grows vines that wrap around the direling's arms and legs. [They will be seriously damaged by the explosion, even if the direling does nothing to them, but Solace will heal them.] "Although, if you keep fighting me, I will defend myself."
