LEGENDS OF HAWAIKI - Prologue

[Argent Silvermage]

Mou and Porpa: the Father and Daughter dolphins swim to the entangled area and start eating at the grasses keeping the swimmer held. It Mou can get him free Porpa will swim him to Tatiki.

 

[Tonguez]

Mou and Porpa begin pulling at the weed entangling the swimmer, dashing in through the swirls but having to pull away and then return again as the currents pull them around - it will be a long and exhausting task to eat there way through.

Lani and Wai help who they can

The squid hangs suspended in the water yet relunctant to tempt the hungry teeth of the porpoises.

(ooc consider this a Bump)

 

[Argent Silvermage]

Tatiki sensing the retreat of the whirlpool dives down to dispell the entangle. Once dispelled The porpoi get the swimmer to safety. Tatiki will get him to shore.

The squid hangs suspended in the water yet relunctant to tempt the hungry teeth of the porpoises.

Calling out again, Puna Tani makes another impassioned request of the squid,
The dolphins will not harm you. Please help save the human. I will be in your debt.

Reaching into the disentangling kelp the squid wraps a pair of its long tentacles around the swimmer and pulls enough for the body to be pulled free. Releasing the body and leaving it suspended in the water, the squid is soon gone in a jet stream of bubbles, heading back to its hole in the reef edge.

Behind the trail of bubbles Mou and her father cooperate to get the swimmers body to the surface and ferry it towards the waiting Tatiki.

the swimmer is unconcious, bruised and pale with no obvious signs of life...

The others are involved in getting the other swimmers to the vaka or back on shore

(Only Tu-Ru left to respond)

 

[Guest 11456]

Tu-Ru tries to sling the odd creature from his arm. If that doesn't work he tries to grab it with his free hand to try and grapple it.

Bump

 

[Tonguez]

Tu-Ru tries to sling the odd creature from his arm. If that doesn't work he tries to grab it with his free hand to try and grapple it.

The thing doesnot come away with Tu-Ru's first attempt and when he tries to grab it he feels it sleek and wet and flat against his skin.

Grabbing at the thing, the O'Punga gets a hold of the thing and then suddenly his chest tightens and in a sudden violent rush the air empties from his lungs as a mighty roar!

The whole crowds attention turns at the sound of the roar and the O'Punga collapses to his knees...

Others
Mou ferries the battered body of the recovered swimmer to Tatiki, whilst Lani makes her way back towards shore. Puna Tani assists those he can to safety, many being helped up aboard the vaka by Wai.

When a huge roar bursts from near the shore everyone turns fearing the worst only to see the O'Punga Tu-Ru collapse into the water...

 

[wolff96]

"Tu-Ru!"

Wai looks around and sees that almost everyone is out of the water.

With barely a thought, he dives into the water and begins swimming towards the stricken O'Punga, trying to steer well clear of the remaining currents where the whirlpool had been.

 

[Argent Silvermage]

Tatiki and Mou get the swimmers body to shore. "Healer! We need a healer!" Kiki yells hopeing the willage healer is close by.
