Umichi's health was going down, not greatly, but slowly, as the Large Nepent was attacking head on."Tsk" he went, as Yumi pointed out Hina's health. "If we take on more ... they will all attack Light, he is paralyzed and pulls the Large Nepents to him ... " he called out. Stay calm and analyze. he thought. If I try to dodge attacks, like my normal style Light will take a beating. This Nepent is almost dead, ... We have three members ... Suki ... should be able to dodge them fine, but taking a hit would be bad on her. Can she carry Light? I doubt it .... As his thought continued, the Large Nepent lifted itself from his blade, getting ready to attack. Umichi lunged, finishing it off.
"Yumi, think you can carry Light out? I don't know if Suki can carry him, but you should be able to. If we pull them at once with him around, they will attack him. If you can take him away, I'll try to deal with three while Suki deals with the other one." His voice was a little hesitant, but this was what they needed to do. The three possibilities, leave Hina to die and complete the party quest. Let Light be endangered by the aggro and complete the quest but possibly fail the party quest, or get Light the hell away. There was nothing in the quest about taking the other ally to a town or anything to fail. Wait a second ... He quickly flicked through the menu grabbing a teleportation crystal. "Teleport Light to Horunka" He used his crystal. Seeing Light teleport. Four Large Nepents left, Light was safe. Things would work.
"Light is safe now, he should be in the village, keep an eye on his health bar just in case, and teleport if it gets low or yours gets low. Otherwise we go with the first plan, I'll take two, you both take one. Be careful Yumi, Suki." he commanded, finally calming himself down. He needed to remain composed, he was the leader. Just because things didn't go as planned, he started to panic. Dashing forward, "Suki take the center one, Yumi take the one on the right, I'll take the left two." Charging a Sonic Leap he sliced through the two on the left, pulling them away from Hina. Her health was dwindling, but she would be fine since the others will take the last two. Since he landed a critical, with a sword skill, he took down 20% of their health. 5 more hits then huh ... I gotta hurry this up. He jumped back, pulling them away a bit more.
The two Large Nepents had started to charge. A gap was between the two. Umichi took this to his advantage, slipping through, slicing the one on his right once, left once and then a big slice behind him to hit both. But he didn't notice there was a Little Nepent that was nearby, that had tackled at him, knocking him off a bit. It did minor damage. He sliced it, 1 hitting it. One of the Nepents were charging at him, the other ... just standing there. He looked at its roots .... they were in the ground. SHIT! he thought, jumping to his feet, and dive rolling. Where he was just a moment ago, roots came up, and the other Nepent was charging into it. That could of been very bad. He needed to finish this, three strikes each. Passing by the one on the side as he dashed, he got two slices off, he was quick. His target was the rooted one. Slicing it across and through, turning back, lunging and then in a swift motion, decapitating some leaves from the top. It was dead. One more for him, and he would take it down at ease. His health was low green. The Nepent predictably charged at him again. He walked towards it. In an instant, it had passed him, but it was sliced in half. It was dead, while Umichi just walked on through. The slice was quick. Light's health was healthy still, but still had a paralysis symbol. He turned to check up on Yumi and Suki.
