"Oh no!" Hay Lin cried, seeing webs pop up around them. What to do, what to do? She tried to run towards the rebels, but one of the domes sprung up around her, shrinking and shrinking. There were Larveks under the web with her, and while she managed to keep them on the edges and on the ground with frantic blasts of air, the web was pushing her towards them. Soon there'd be no space at all. The breeze she'd pulled up to blow the web away had just gone through it, those holes were too small for people but not for air. Guys? Might wanna hurry up on that whole running thing. She tried to send the message out to the others, though they were probably running for it already. "I sure hope this web stuff burns..."

One larveck crawls under the tall grass & tries to sneak up on Hay Lin from behind.

[Enter the rest of the guardians and Caleb from Main Gate]
The four guardians and Caleb ran as fast as they could. Irma driven by the fact that she wanted to help her best friend found unusual strenghts and was the one running fastest. "We're coming!" she screamed to Hay Lin who still was a bit further ahead.

Hay Lin turned around at the sound of Irma's familiar voice screaming behind her, just in time to see a Larvek jumping at her from behind. "Yikes!" She immediately directed the rest of the wind that had still been spinning around her, lifting her pigtails into the air, to block the attack. The web was pressing her wings down, too thick for her to break with her hands, and she was out of wind. Bad news if another of those chompers wanted to take a grab at her. Oh man! I've really screwed this up, haven't I? I can't blow them anywhere because there's nowhere to send them! And I'm running out of fly space. Her wings weren't appreciating the scrape against the webbing, and she felt herself losing some altitude, just above the Larveks on the ground beneath her. "I'm sorry guys!" she shouted, "And watch out! These webs sprang up from nowhere!"

"Whoa!" Will exclaimed as Irma just missed running into one of the creatures. Will pulled her arm and tugged on her body so that she was out of harms way.
"Any ideas on how to get Hay Lin out would be greatly appreciated," Will said as she looked around trying to find a weak spot to the web.
"What were these things called again, Hay Lin?" Will asked as a distraction

Caleb: "Does it really matter what they're called? We have more important things to think about!" *swings at the nearest dome & his blade gets stuck in to goo on the webbing, he begins to pull* "Like getting this worthless sword free." __________ Both Aldar & Drake are running out of human shields.

"They're called Larveks. At least -" she paused to inhale, pulling in a gust of wind that she blasted down to keep the creatures on the ground. There wasn't anywhere to send them, but she wanted to keep as much distance between her and them as possible. "-that's what Phobos was talking about, setting a trap for...the rebels!" she finished with a horrified gasp. Caleb was too far for her to hear, since he wasn't screaming, but she had remembered that some of them had still been running when the trap had sprung. "Will, some of the rebels might have gotten trapped under these webs. And they can't fly." Hay Lin moved towards the sound of her friend's voice, still struggling against the thick webbing. On earth spiderwebs were something to just brush off. Here, not so much. And any of the rebels that had gotten caught in this stuff were probably worse off, since they didn't have the advantage of flight and guardian powers. "I'm really sorry! They just sprung up, and air goes right through them." And at this rate, she was going to become claustrophobic soon.

Taking advantage of Caleb's predicament, one of the larvecks pops out of its hole in the ground & attacks him from behind.

*Will shoots an energy beam at the larveck without hesitating. It flopped over and twitched on the ground, but there were more around on the grounds trying to get to rebels. Will gave a horrified glance in Hay Lin's direction and turned to Cornelia.
"Is it possible to save the people from under the ground?"

Caleb: "What? Are you out of your mind?" *finally yanks his sword free* "The rebels in Infinite City don't need saving. The one's who are above ground are the one's who need saving."

"No, I mean that since these webs are so tricky, Cornelia can go under them."
*Will put her hand on Cornelia's shoulder and they both nodded as they understood*

Irma saw another Larveck appraoaching them and shot a hard beam of water at it. "Flushing" she said and turned to Will. "Don't want to ruin the fun part, but could you guys hurry?"

Mommy larveck approaches from high in the sky.

"If I can burn the web then Hay Lin can escape."
*Taranee pushed out the palms of her hands and shot out a wide stream of fire at the web. There was a small amout of smoke but nothing else happened*
"It wont burn! Here must be some sort of protective slime on it!"

After feeding on the fallen rebels outside the domes, the larvecks approach the guardians from all sides so that they are surrounded by a circle of larvecks.
Caleb: "This doesn't look good." *swings his sword to hack off the head of the closest larveck but his blade merely bounces off* "W-we're surrounded."
