The Ocean

[Empusa Sesshi]

Alas our intrepid sailors have been swallowed by some sort of very large aquatic aberration! After some more then mild turbulence, their "ship" bobs to the surface, rocking a few moments before settling in the stomach. During his investigations, Leon sees all manner of creatures in the belly, or the skeletons of them that is. It seems the digestive juices are quite effectve in there. Maybe that's where the odd tingling sensation is coming from.

[Meru]

".... We definitly need a good plan, and quick... I don't want to end up as food for an aquatic creature.. They are the ones who are supposed to be eaten by us!" Leon comments.

He then looks around the area more, to see if there was anything they could possibly use to get out of the strange creature...

[Mitera Nikkou]

Stud stood up upon whatever surface she had fallen upon, a thin, blue aura licking around her body. Her body was tense, hands clenched and arms tight at her sides, head bowed, and her face concealed in shadows.

She wasn't feeling very happy.

First, she had to put up with that old guy. Then, she had to wear that fish suit. From there, she had been nauseous and had tossed her cookies when she had tumbled into the mouth of the sea creature.

And she was sure that it was the old guy's fault. That sea creature saw a big fish and wanted to eat her!

"Aaaaaarrrrgggghhhh!!!! I'm so pissed off!" She screamed to the heavens above. (Well, the inside of the fish, anyway.)

[Empusa Sesshi]

Well Stud has one less thing to worry about! Looking over the edge they can see the bones of salty Mike floating in the stomach acids of the creature. He musta fallen overboard once swallowed.

[Meru]

".... Poor Mike. He shall be remembered, until he is forgotten.. But at least he died a sailor's death. That of being digested by a large sea creature." Leon remarks, bowing his head in a moment of silence for the now dead sailor.

He then looks over at the screaming Stud, and gets a possible idea!

"Hey Stud! Maybe if we shout loud enough, this creature will regurgitate us! It's worth a shot, eh? And if it doesn't work, we can then try tickling it! That has to work, because everyone knows that aquatic creatures are ticklish from the insides of their stomachs!" He shouts at her, and then begins yelling random things very loudly at the stomach walls.

[Mitera Nikkou]

Stud wasn't in the frame of mind to do that. Well, not exactly: she yelled and screamed alright, but she directed at the inside of the sea creature, which she was alternating between kicking and punching.

[Empusa Sesshi]

It was a grand, and well thought out plan. Alas it seems this particular sea beast was used to its meals screaming from inside, and doesn't seem inclined to spit you out.

[Meru]

"Now for plan B! Tickling the beast!" Leon shouts out, reaching into his backpack.

He pulls out several bags of what appear to be fish bones, and then, using his fish necromancy, forms them into a long reaching tickling device, and begins tickling the inside of the beast's stomach!

"Laugh! Laugh us up! You cannot resist the power of my fish necromancy!" Leon tells the creature, not caring that it couldn't hear him.

[Mitera Nikkou]

Getting frustrated, Stud looked around, eyes glaring, until she spied what appeared to be a punching bag on the roof of the beast's insides, some distance away. She didn't think that she could get close to it because of the stomach's digestive juices, or would find anything like the thing that Leon had made, so she found some broken timber and began throwing chunks at the punching bag-looking thing, screaming as she did so.

[Empusa Sesshi]

Alas...Leon's amazing tickling idea seems to be er...not working. However, Stud beans the punching bag thing, and the beast shudders.

[Mitera Nikkou]

"Didn't like that, did you, you stupid [Censor!] [Censor!]?" She taunted, then proceeded to find more timber to throw at the punching bag-looking thing.

"Ugh! And you need a breath mint, pal! I'm getting tired of this stench!"

She proceeded to throw more timber, how true her aim was, was anyone's guess. :O

[Meru]

"Aha! So that thing is it's weakness! I shall tickle it with all of my might!" Leon exclaims.

He then extends his tickling device up to the punching-bag thingy, and begins tickling it with all of the energy left in his body!

[Empusa Sesshi]

The combined onslaught of Stud's barrage of debris, and Leon's expert tickleage prooves too much for the great beast to handle. It begins to heave and shudder...then with a sudden WHOOSH of water the pair find themselves thoroughly vomitted out of the creature, to sail through the open air a few moments, and land with a sploosh in the water.

[Mitera Nikkou]

Stud breaks the water's surface and sputters, coughing out water that she had swallowed. She had to remove her costume before she could swim, and she had almost drowned doing so.

"Arrrrrrgh!" She screamed, upset. "Can't anything good happen, or what!?"
