Immediately after Bruce rappelled down the cliff edge, Ineko followed. He struggled a little bit, having never really rappelled before with chain. He botched the landing, stumbling a little bit, but he caught himself. Immediately after his recovery, he looked around, seeing dozens of holes bored into the walls of the large cavern they were in. If something lived in those holes, they were surrounded. Ineko frowned at the thought, if they were surrounded, the only way out would be to fight their way out. And both of them had no idea what kind of creatures lived in these caves. After he finished the thought, he heard a chittering and turned to where it was coming from. He saw a large insect like creature crawling out of one of the holes. It chittered again and then the entire cavern was filled with the thunderous uproar, drowning out all noise. Save for one word, said by a rather loud armored student. [b]"SHIT."[/b] The insect like creature leapt down and Ineko got a better look at it. It was a massive mantis, standing roughly 9 feet tall. It slashed at him horizontally, which Ineko dodged by ducking. As the blade passed over him, the drones on his back undocked and flew upwards, scanning the area. A small map appeared at the corner of Ineko's HUD, and on it, dozens of red dots crawling out of the walls. Definitely surrounded. Ineko thought curses as he dodged slash after slash, it was incredibly fast. And Ineko barely could clear its attacks, after a moment of gauging his opponent he went on the offensive. He stepped inwards, avoiding two slashes. Leaning in, he punched the center mass of the creature with both fists, opening with an oriental martial art based on an animal, to fight an animal. The mantis staggered back, then went right back into the fight, slashing again. Ineko caught the right upper arm of the mantis and punched the joint with his other fist. The impact tore the arm off of the creature. It reeled back in pain, meanwhile, Ineko tossed the arm aside and dashed forwards. Thrusting his right arm into the gaping wound, he got as far as his elbow. The entire torso of the mantis then exploded in a massive flash of light, lances of lightning arced to surrounding creatures and fried them. Other lances arced to the walls and ceiling, disrupting the relatively thin rock and dirt above their heads. Ineko didn't notice it however, he was hard pressed to defend himself against the other creatures.
