Electricity crackled through the water.

Lisa Windgate quickly dodged the crackles of electricity, quickly activating her airpack and swimming away, the two Tentalica Jallafosh chasing after her.

"Why the heck did you split it in half?!" She scolded through her earpiece, zooming upwards, one of them swimming into the cavern wall, and she quickly swam away, the other one still on her flippers.

"I was planning to cut off the tentacles!" Nathan Windgate exclaimed, loading his Arachnet, Widow, shooting her at his older sister, pulling her towards him, before she shot her Geoshard, who made a protective ball around them.

"Well don't miss next time, I hope you know they fucking duplicate when split at the head!" She scolded, smacking his arm angrily. He winced, holding his arm, snapping back,

"Okay, I'm sorry, geez!" He apologised, frustrated. All of the sudden, the Geoshard ball they were in cracked, the cracks quickly forming around the ball before it shattered. They quickly swam upwards, away from the tentacles of the dangerous jellyfish. Lisa looked downwards to see the venomous ends of the jellyfish's tentacles nip Nathan's flipper, and she shot her Thresher, Hacksaw at the tentacles, cutting part of them off as Nathan reached her. They quickly kicked each other's feet, parting from each other as the two jellyfish arrived at them, trying to catch the two siblings with their tentacles. Nathan shot his Rammstone, Striker and Lisa shot her Armashelt, Bash, at the jellyfish, and they collided into each other, disoriented. The Windgate Siblings quickly swam away, their muscles starting to ache.

"We need a plan!" Nathan told Lisa, and she scowled at her clumsy older brother as she aimed the two air blasters fastened to the wrists of her diving suit, the jet of air knocking the jellyfish back from her.

"I'm working on it!" She exclaimed as she hid behind a boulder, panting as she checked her water supply. She sighed with relief as she saw that she had three quarters of a tankful of air left, and that she had almost an entire day of air left.

"Air status, Nate?" She panted, and Nathan responded,

"Nearly an entire day left, you?"

"Same here." She stated, and there was a pause as both of them heard the hungered screech of the two Tentalica Jallafosh, their electric tentacles causing electricity to crackle through the ocean, the stingers on the end of each tentacle waving through the air, the venom they carried enough to kill all the humans in the Southern Caverns.

"We need to get the Tentalica Jallafosh away from the sandbank, the coral nymphs could get hurt." Nathan told her, and she looked back at the two enormous Tentalica Jallafosh, agreeing,

"You're right for once. Follow me." She told him, and she kicked off the boulder, firing her Phosphoro, Sparkle, at the two jellyfish. They both turned towards Lisa, and she took that as a signal to spin away, activating her airpacks once again, zooming away to an emptier part of the ocean, the jellyfish close on her heels. As she threaded through the water, she turned left and right, following her mental map made by years of defending all the regions in the Southern Caverns, from underwater caverns in the oceans to wastelands filled with dangerous vents.

"Where are we headed?" Nathan asked, and Lisa responded,

"Tentalica Jallafosh only have one weakness. Remember Seamaiden Cavern?" Lisa asked Nathan, and the name of the cavern brought back fond memories of the cavern.

"Yeah, the seasapiens were hot." He recounted, and Lisa's hand went to the glass of her helmet, and she shook her head disappointedly at her immature older brother.
