Diana nodded and caught the flashlight, her eyes widening at the scene. Great, so normal weapons didn't seem to work on them . . .
Noticing the dark creatures coming towards the fissure, Diana flashed the light on, shining it on the creatures attacking Asami and Proteus, then switching after a moment to shine the light on the ones coming near the fissure. This wasn't working out.
Diana turned her head. "Gantu, can you try and move more of the rocks so we can get out of here??" She asked, continuing to shine the light on the creatures as she attempted to push some of the rocks out of the way.

"Remember the hole I have now?" he asked. He then picked her up and pushed her through the human-sized hole. "Now go! I'll catch up!" But these shadow creatures were making it hard for him to push rocks out of the way for himself. They were dragging him down pretty well, so much that he could barely push another small boulder out of the way.

When the flashlight hit them, in surprise they shrieked and backed off for a moment, giving someone enough time to get away, before continuing their attack and advance towards them.
Hearing more gunshots, the shadows draggin Asami down stopped for a second, looking at whoever it was who was shooting, before continuing, while anouther shadow jumping up from the ground towards Proetus.

Diana let out a cry of protest, and then cursed, flashing the light on the creatures by Asami, then turning and it at the ones by Gantu.

After someone (someone she'd definitely have to thank later) flashed light on the creatures and they loosened up their grip, Asami fell on the ground in front of her. Her instinct was to place her hands before her so they'd absorb the impact but her shoulders took all her weight and she felt the pain everywhere she was hurt before.
She crawled away from the creatures a few inches before she was able to get up and limp as fast as she could away from them. Constantly looking back, Asami took a while to see the shadows after Proteus and scream for Diana to flash him.
She got to the side of the whole and was able too see Gantu through the darkness. She tried to move a few bigger rocks outside so that it was easier to move the ones inside. "Tell me what to do!"

"Just keep pushing," Gantu ordered Asami. The flashlights were able to loosen the shadow's grip on him and he was not going to let an opportunity pass like that. He began to push harder, and Asami's help was actually surprising. He was able to move the last of the boulders keeping him in the hole. "Now stay close to Diana," Gantu ordered as he began to get out of the hole.

Diana nodded at Asami, flashing the light on the shadows by Proteus, trying to get him free. They needed to get back together, then it would be easier to concentrate the light of the electric torch on the shadows, and she wouldn't have to keep on switching back and forth.
Speaking of which . . . after Diana had shone the light on some of the shadows by Proteus, she shone it back on the shadows by Gantu and Asami, trying to make it easier to get Gantu out.

Proteus was definetely not expecting the sentient dark beings to concentrate around him, dragging him down to the blackness that made their realm. He would not allow himself to perish in such an environment, but he still had to realize his will and reality were not exactly coincident. He felt his senses slowly vanish as he stopped listening or being able to see. He was pratically certain this'd be the end for him.
A line of hope, however, signaled this might not quite be such day. Seeing the animalistic shadows thrown back by a small light, he thanked himself for supplying Diana with the flashlight. Biting on his lowe lip to muster the strength to grab a flash grenade, he felt a trail of blood running down his mouth as he released the light bomb.
"CLOSE YOUR EYES!" he yelled, shutting his eyes tight as the flash consumed the area.

Diana's head shot over to Proteus at his yell, and she gripped the flashlight tighter - just in case - and turned away, closing her eyes tightly, silently praying that Proteus' plan would work.

The ear piercing screams of the creatures filled the ruins as soon as Proteus had dropped the light bomb.For a long several moments, their cries echoed throughout area, until everything became quiet afetr the light died down, with no trace of the shadowes. However, as soons as the moonlight had began to return, movements could be seen from the dark again.

Asami was helping Gantu out of the hole when Diana's light left them. She didn't know if he'd be offended since he clearly could get out alone but she thought it'd be faster that way.
She had only a few seconds to react to Proteus' words and she lowered her head with her eyes closed. A few moments passed before the light of the flash grenade went off and Asami was happy to verify the are was clean of the shadows. At least for a while, because the feeling of being watched came back as fast as the light went off.
"We need to go!"

Gantu was quick to respond to everything. First off, he was definitely trying to get out of the hole and, thanks to help from Asami, he did. Then he quickly shut his eyes and looked down to avoid the flash of light. When the light dimmed, he quickly looked around to see their current surroundings before deciding, "We are heading back to the RLS Legacy. That's an order." He then began to move, carrying his injured arm. Amelia's going to love this, he thought, fearing her reaction for some reason.

Diana jumped into action when the shadows receded. Noting that Asami was closer to Gantu and could help him with his arm if need be, Diana sprinted towards Proteus. "Good thinking on the light bomb," she commented, slinging his arm around her shoulders so she could support him - he had seemed pretty weak when throwing that light bomb, and they had no time right now.
"Gantu's right, we need to head back to the ship," she said, starting to walk quickly towards the exit of the ruins.

Proteus coughed and let his eyes slowly shift back to Diana's nodding softly as the azure tint of her orbs consumed his, soothing him down for the needed time. Coughing softly, he looked forward, calmly beggining to move, another flash bomb in his hand in case the dark creatures were to return.
"We should...go for the light." he whispered softly, looking down as he sighed in relief, seeing Asami safe and sound. Gantu had executed his job with the most accute of perfections. He was glad. This would be a day they'd never forget.

Diana nodded at Proteus, helping him gently yet quickly towards the exit of the ruins, turning her head to look at Gantu and Asami.
"Quickly! Before those creatures return!" she cried.
