IC: Kogaru spins the spear around clumsily, shifting it to a fighting position. "Ticeli, watch my back," he hisses.
IC: The skeleton raises his stumps defensively and backs away, gesturing towards the pit trap invitingly, as if it were the door to his humble home and not a booby trap to drop people into a crypt. He other one pops up behind him, holding the bow over his shoulder.
IC: "Ticeli, check the hole behind us. Where does it go?" He holds the spear higher, pointing it at the warriors.
"What?" Ticeli whispers.
"They want us to follow that Hunter into the hole. Can you see him down there?" Ticeli crawls closer to the hole, peering down.

Species: Human. I'm pretty certain of that. Kanohi: Kanohi Bluglass, Mask of Anti-Glare Prescription Glasses Weapons and Equipment: Equipment: Flat caps. A wallet. A driving permit.
Weapons: I have an awesome katana on my wall.

IC: There's a Skull Scorpio down there. It claps its split tail together, staring up at Ticeli.
Meanwhile Skeleton #1 comes up behind and sends a kick are Ticeli's rear to send him into the hole.
Come! Come and listen, my friends. Listen as I regale you with the next chapter in the legend of the Bionicle.

OOC: My understanding was that Kogaru was between Ticeli and the warriors, ie they would have to go through him to accomplish such a thing.
OOC: By my reasoning, if they went back into the arena and the skeletons came looking for them, the skeletons would be in between them and the hole. This Ticeli would place himself between the skeleton and the hole. But oh well.
IC: The skeleton tries to kick Kogaru into Ticeli and this into the hole.

IC: Kogaru yells out a warning, allowing Ticeli to roll away from the hole as Kogaru himself dodges the attack (18).

OOC: Is the hole in the arena?
OOC: Apparently it's close enough for Ticeli to peek in without leaving the safety of Kogaru.
IC: The skeleton with the bow moves around the flank, trying to block the Villagers should they try to escape. The one formerly equipped with a spear crouches in a ready stance, watching with its dead eyes to see what the villagers do.

IC: "H-h-hey, so, w-what if w-we j-j-just l-leave?" Kogaru asks. Ticeli watches the archer wearily, not sure what to do without his weapons.

IC: Skeleton one firmly points at the hole. Out of the hole the Skull Scorpio's stinger snaps out. Although it definetly doesn't hit anyone, the point is made clear: they have little choice in this matter.

IC: "Y-y'know, I d-d-don't f-feel l-like it t-t-today." Kogaru readjusts his grip on the spear. Ticeli finally pushes himself back to his feet.
"Don't forget about the archer," he whispers, moving closer to Kogaru.
"Y-you still have your sh-shield?" Ticeli slides the shield off of his shoulder, Kogaru's intention clear.
OOC: To be clear, Ticeli didn't loose his shield when they fell because it was strapped on his shoulder. They dropped everything they were holding, meaning Kogaru's weapons and his crossbow.

IC: The skeleton with the bow lowers it slightly as he looks at the first skeleton like he's an idiot. The first one looks like he's hyping himself.

IC: "Y'know, this is nice and all, but do we have a plan to get out of here?" Ticeli hisses.

"W-working on it," Kogaru shoots back.
IC: Skelton #1 charges like a football player, arms spread wide, and tries to tackle the two villagers into the hole.
IC: Kogaru attempts to hold his ground, going onto his knee and holding the spear at an angle, so that the spear is propped solidly on the arena floor while the tip is held about equal to the warrior's chest (8). Ticeli, meanwhile, decides the better idea is to evacuate, and dives to the side (15).

IC: Kogaru stands firm, holding the spear as is (9). Ticeli notices the projectiles flying overhear (14), and gets back to his feet, shield at the ready.

IC: The skeleton crawls away to dodge, but the spear gets him between the ribs. He looks down at it, shares a rude hand gesture with Kogaru, and yanks the spear out, losing a couple of ribs in the process.

IC: Kalnac now seems somewhat befuddled. "For the record, those villagers and I showed up here at the same time by coincidence."
IC: "Whatever." The Skull Lieutenant leads the Abomination down into the crypt. "The deeper it goes, the messier it gets. I hope you can't see in the dark."
IC: Kalnac can see pretty well in the dark, at least once his eyes adjust. "So what do you do now, lieutenant?"

IC: "Good question." The Skull Abomination stands still as the Lieutenant turns to looks at his prisoner. "Tell me, if your leader was defeated by a bunch of overpowered Toa who could construct a nigh impenetrable suit of armor with nothing but stone tiles, and you, the last fighter for that cause, only had four skeletons to your name, what would YOU do with a prisoner?"
