A battle scarred woodland area was deathly silent, no birds chirped,no snakes hissed and nothing but the silent wind stirred. There was a branch snap. A blue clad figure walked through the bushes with two axes drawn, beside him a green clad girl with a disk launcher, already primed with a stunner disk. About twenty feet behind them, the next squad was moving, arcee and Lewa.

"Jack...I don't like this, too foggy." Miko, the green clad girl complained.

"Yeah..." Jack whispered back as they continued onward, they found the crushed remains of a rahkshi of fear, a deep red colored one. He nudged it and it flopped over, the head ripped off and the krata missing, atleast they now knew where the slug smokescreen had found came from. Sections of the ground had collapsed into cave systems below and the cracks originated from a central point, definately the brown rahkshi of fragmentation, there was scortchmarks in twin lines all over the place, which meant the third one was a rahkshi of heat vission. jack shook his head, the three of the least harmful of the rahkshi and the autobots got their asses kicked.

"Jack, what's this?" Miko gulped as she looked down into the cave. "Looks like some webbing."

Arcee walked over, crouched over the hole and looked atthe webbing. "Not airachnid's."

"it's vissorak webs." Jack gulped as he suddenly wipped around, axes drawn at one of the bushes, as if expecting an ambush. "be on guard, they're ambush predators and two can take on six toa, not pretty, trust me, i've seen them up close."

"June up closer." miko gulped with worry. "Me and Pohatu will check it out."

"Why is it always spooky dark places?" pohatu muttered as he pulled a glowing golden stone from his waste, shook it so it glowed brighter and jumped in with Miko.

"Remember you two, avoid their bite and ratooka spinners" Jack called down at them. He then looked at Arcee, sighed and shook his head.

"What's wrong?" Arcee asked.

"Those two working together is gonna be loud." Jack groaned then looked to his right, away from the holes. "That way, somebody's talking." arcee nodded,kept low and followed jack,after about twelve minutes, they found two unsettling figures. Airachnid and a green insectoid being with massive jaws.

"What the...who's airachnid with?" Arcee whispered.

"Nadiki." Jack told her. "He's a former toa, he's now a insane sadistic mutant with a grudge against all toa."

Arcee looked at jack with a worried expression, this Nadiki sounded like another airachnid, when they looked back, they were gone.

"MOVE!" Jack called as he flung himself aside,just before a green bolt blasted the area where he was. Arcee lunged aside just before a thick wad of webs hit her.
Jack shot a burst of water in the direction of the green shot, the water burst tore three trees down and turned a section of the ground into a deep slurry mess of mud. arcee shot her blasters in the same direction only for something to wack her from behind and pin her to the ground, as she rolled over to get up, a greyish green disk struck her and she lost all fealing in her body, she couldn't move.

"SHIT VISORKA!" Jack called somewhere out of her field of vision, she heard the wizzes of more spinning disks through the air, the shots of blasters, the metalic clanging of the green golts and the scream of water jets. occasionally she'd head a metallic screach of pain which sounded somethingcross between an insecticon and a scraplet. Suddenly jack was thrown onto his back and into her field of vision, green electricity crackled around him as his body arked in pain before he slumbed backand rolled his face to see her. He mouth the words. "i'm sorry" Just before her vision went dark.
