[spoiler]Geo, we’ll continue from here, so the old reply chain doesn’t bug out.[/spoiler]
You duck under the spear heading for you, and dash past it, towards the heart. Unfortunately you find the wall of spikes from before hasn’t retracted, and your path is blocked.
Three more spikes come lunging up from behind you.
English
-
Geo takes two steps to the left, and tries to slide under the one in front of her.
-
You successfully manage to do so, but it seems you have a new problem. A dozen spikes appear in a tunnel over you, keeping you down in your sliding position, and one by one spears begin shooting up from the end of the tunnel below. You’ve got to move, and fast!
-
[spoiler]which way are they coming from?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Behind you. Assumimg you slid legs first, they’re coming from the direction of your head. Sorry, thought I mentiomed that.[/spoiler]
-
Geo grapples the floor, pulling her forward.
-
Your grapple connects, and you slide forwards, out from under the tunnel. You’re still on the ground when three spikes come in from the left, aiming low.
-
Geo tries to jump over them.
-
[spoiler]How are you jumping? You’re still on the ground.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Thats kind of how jumping works? Anyways, got the jump kit, let’s me double jump.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]No, I mean you’re laying on the ground. You aren’t standing up. You only just came out of a tunnel, remember?[/spoiler]
-
Geo rolls to the side and gets on her feet at the same time, before jumping.
-
You roll to the side, moving out of the way of their initial lunge, but as you get up you find them still extending, and one pierces through your arm before you have time to jump. You wind up stumbling to the side, where you hit a wall of spikes. One comes lunging at you from the front, aimed mid-high.
-
Geo dives under it.
-
You successfully manage to slip under the spike, but then one comes up from behind you. It soars right over your head, and joins in a tip with the other. And then one comes in from the side and does the same. And then another, and another. It seems it’s trying to trap you inside!
-
Geo tries to slip through the biggest gap she can find.
-
You quickly dive towards a hole, which thankfully even seems to be in the direction of the heart. The hole is too thin to run, and you wind up having to try to sidestep through. One spike comes up under your foot just as you’re about out, and while it doesn’t pierce your foot, it does throw off yoir balancr, and you stumble backwards onto your rear. Suddenly a circle of spikes appear all around you, all aiming low and ready to lunge!
-
Geo gets to her feet as fast as possible and jumps over them. [spoiler]How many more turns of this are there?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]You’re almost done, just keep on going. :p[/spoiler] You leap over the spikes, but then there’s a problem. Another spear shoots up from the center of the ring, aiming straight up towards you!
-
Geo double jumps to the side.
-
You leap out of the way, though the spear manages a small scratch on your leg. When you land, though, you’re relatively close to the heart, and it looks like you have aclear path.
-
Geo goes for it.
-
[spoiler]How are you intending to strike it?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Knife.[/spoiler]
-
Your blade cuts across the surface of the heart, and it goes flying off the roots, crashing into the far wall as the water goes from red to blue. Floating on the far side of the room, a small spike of darkness appeared above the heart. And then one next to that rotated slightly. And another, and another. Once it was at 4 they were reaching around 25% of the way around, and you get the feeling it would be pretty bad if they reached all the way around. You had to finish it off quickly! Like with a SPECIAL ATTACK!
