"And thats what I'm hoping he'll do." Phoenix said shifting on her tires. "And I can keep out of the reach of that fire whip of his no problem."

"We need to get this going very soon," said Hydro, "If Ebony has in fact gone into another relapse, we have to move quickly."

Slaytor took a leading position. Whatever trouble there was to be, he wanted to take it first. "Let's get going." If there was any distress or turmoil in him now, he was keeping a lid on it. "Tracks lead into that cave mouth..." He proceeded with the others into the cave.
Mike, from his explorations of the area, knew that this cave system had several other entrances and exits accessible to cars. He and the rest of the party moved to cover them.

"She's here," Hydro said, "The signal's coming from somewhere inside this cave."

*Brandon sighed in relief as he heard that Harley wsan't going to be the one who put in danger, but of course, anyone putting themselves in danger was bad to the large SUV, and he then came up to the spyder's side*
"Well, if he does come here, he'll have to go threw me, no ones getting to Harley while I'm still drawing breath" *He said, and that was the truth.*
((>.>;;; Sorry if I'm slow there, I just got back home))

<<No problem>>
Slaytor raised and waved a tire in a KEEP-IT-DOWN fashion as he moved carefully through the passages with Hydro, looking back to see where Kamui and Phoenix were. Air moved through the cave, coming in puffs and drafts. The dripping of water echoed through. The damp scent of wet rock and fungus was everywhere. So far, they had been able to proceed without the use of headlights. Their senses was strained to the limit to capture any anomaly, any sound or smell that did not belong.

Mariatti, in the meantime, heard a group of engines coming into the area of his part of the cave. He leaned very close to Ebony, who was barely awake and did not realize that her rescuers were nearby, and whispered to her.
"Your friends are coming. If they get any closer, your life and your baby's will not last for long," he told Ebony.
He readied his fire-whip, just in case.

Slaytor froze, like a hunting dog "on point". His eyes communicated his message to the others. Listen.

Hydro stopped still and listened intently. He picked out words such as 'friends', 'closer', and 'baby' and knew that Mariatti would not let Ebony go that easily.
Hydro communicated with wiper gestures that they would have to move fast if they wanted to save Ebony.

Slaytor moved aside so that Phoenix could advance. He nudged Hydro, whispering on an almost subvocal level.
"Is that voice thing ready? If it doesn't work out we'll have to get the actual link with Harley and lip-sync."

Hydro nodded and whispered back, "Yes. I've had it ready before we entered the cave. It'll work."

Phoenix took a deep breath and pulled ahead of the search party slowly. She gently turned on her lights, only enough to show her outline and gold paint.

From the corner of his less-than-perfect sight, which wasn't as good as a tuner's, Mariatti saw a glint of gold approaching. A grin appeared on his grill.
"Harley..." he chuckled quietly, "You're mine."
He started toward the gold in an attempt to finally capture the "fake" Harley.
Ebony, in the meantime, had become a little bit more aware but she could do nothing for the moment as she watched through her dizziness as Mariatti went toward his intended target.

(((((OOC: First, Phoenix has to draw Mariatti away from Ebony so she could be rescued. But... if Mariatti senses something amiss, like someone else is with the "fake" Harley, he'll get defensive and would probably go through with his threat to harm Ebony and her baby if the rescuers don't give him what he wants...)))))
