[Electro ducked under a bunch of strings before slicing them in half. He then jumped over a few before a string slammed him into a tree, knocking the wind out of him.]

[Chosen grunted before looking back at the strings, coming down on him in a giant wave. He flew out of the way before he flung himself into the wave, blasting the strings with fire, which made them turn to steam as they squealed and frolicked.]

Chosen: Ha-! Good thing you guys aren't fireproof! That'd be a bummer, wouldn't it?

[Chosen immediately got hit afterward, sliding across the muddy floor before slowly getting to his hands, spitting out mud with a gag.]

[As he sliced the strings that kept him on the tree, he turned to the others. He was still not sure how freeing them would affect them since the strange creatures seemed to connect to their minds. He didn't want to mess anything up.]

[He then eyed Chosen, who got up and hopped onto one of the strings, blasting it to mist with flames before kicking another one to the ground. It growled before Chosen crushed it to mist with his foot.]

[Chosen then looked towards the others, realizing that most of the strings were protecting them, almost like they didn't want them to be awoken. Chosen huffed, determination flooding through his body as he ran towards the wall of strings. Electro watched him before eyeing a string move past him.]

[He grunted softly before he realized the string was headed straight for Magenta and Victim. In a rush, he raised his sword and cut the string in half, hearing Magenta's frantic swear in the back, which made him laugh a bit and shake his head.]

[Chosen blasted a stream of flames at the wall of strings, hoping to cut through to the others at least, but as a few of them evaporated, there wasn't enough room for him to get through and the strings simply flung him back. Chosen slid to a halt, gripping his arm as he winced.]

Electro: Chosen?! What happened? Are you alright?

[Chosen grunted before looking at his arm, noticing the two silver fang marks in his arm. It was hard for him to move it now as the pain was actually something he wasn't used to.]

Chosen: It bit me.....! Those damned snakes - I swear!

[Electro noticed that the strings weren't attacking them anymore and got a bit worried about the reason behind that. He turned to Chosen, who suddenly seemed to be twitching, especially in his arm. Chosen didn't seem to notice. That or he didn't care.]

Electro: Chosen.....?

Chosen: Yeah? You got a plan? Cause hell, we kinda need one right now.

Electro: No....Have you noticed that you're twitching...?

Chosen: I mean....this...- bite kinda stings a bit, but I guess that's a natural.....-

[Chosen seemed to pause as his head felt lightweight and dizzy.]

Chosen: Reaction....

[Electro noticed Chosen's drastic pause and got cautious, backing up a bit as his sword lay by his side. He then heard the bushes rustle and looked up to eye Magenta and Victim, walking up to them. Victim was limping, but he seemed to be in high spirits still. But his smile seemed forced.]

[He then eyed the wall of strings, and the hissing noises seemed to sound like a constant sizzling of TNT.]

Victim: [ " What in the world is that? " ]

Electro: It's a wall of....string...snake things. I- I don't know - this place is constantly getting weirder and weirder...!

[Magenta eyed the others on the other side and gasped.]
