One of the daimyou's men pulled the prisoner by a chain that was tied to his hands and through the forest they all trekked. Nothing too out of the ordinary seemed to be occurring at the moment, but evil was never too far away. As the sand turned into soil, that therein began to loosen into muck and grime; therefore, Ngaio encouraged all present to tread carefully, as patches of quicksand were present on Jiro.
Granted the Cloud shinobi's level of high observation, they would most certainly hear a faint gurgling sound, soon followed by a sploshing noise. Within the dark grotto, much couldn't be made out by regular eyes, and there surely was no animal known within the forests that made that such a sound. Had either Marii or Daisuke went to investigate, they would come across three gelatinous creations of a color similar to the froth found atop the Zoujou-ten; one, either brazen or completely absent of true mental faculty, lurched towards whomever approached it. Had the unprovoked and surprising element of this 'attack' landed, the defender would find themselves covered in a sticky and corrosive goo; in the event they had been robust enough to overcome such mediocrity in adversity, then the creature would simply crash into a tree and corrode itself away there, further causing the forest element to collapse and crash where it previously stood.
The prisoner and one of the taijutsu masters were shook. With the surrounding darkness, sandpits and now emerging jelly monsters, the entourage of Ngaio found themselves in a confusing combat landscape. Just then, seven more of those horrible slimy things rose from the murk, totaling now nine in number to antagonize the efforts of Team Cloud.
