Who: Aria, Fox, Ray, Ren
What: Behemoth of doom and maybe some zombies.
When: June 16th
Where: Ivalice, The Feywood
Status: In progress



The trip back to the Feywood had been quicker than Aria expected. Perhaps because she knew the way this time. As they neared their destination she hoped that maybe the Behemoth had decided to go somewhere else.

Not really believing that they were that lucky she asked, "So, do we have some sort of plan or are we just winging it?"

Fox could imagine the Behemoth going 'Ew, getitoffgetitoffgetitoff' and that really didn't help.

"Uh... it has no real elemental weaknesses. It's resistant to all the elemental spells. So... we can probably do some damage to it with magic, but not much. I think I'll reserve mine for healing."

All of this was beside the point. The bastard was still in their way.

"I wonder if we could just distract it while one of us goes and gets the thing we need..."

Ren found it much easier to stifle a snicker once Fox detailed just how difficult it would be to bring the Behemoth down. Boy this was going to be lots of fun, wasn't it?

"The problem would be keeping those of us on the distraction team alive in the meantime, wouldn't it?" she asked with a shrug.

"Well, I don't know if we'll actually be able to kill this thing. It shouldn't really take that long to get what we're after." Aria looked around at the terrain.

"If we could get it to move one of us should be able to get by without it noticing." She looked over at the others for a moment.

"Maybe I should be the one to go for the fruit. I figure I'm pretty good at staying on a running Chocobo and I think I can handle the monsters that have it."

"What do you think?" she asked while watching the Behemoth still trying to scrape the zombie off it's foot. It was distracted but, it would still notice a person right in front of it.

"Fox, you're an archer, right? You could start firing to lure it away so Aria can get by," Ray said thoughtfully. "I don't think staying alive will be too much of a problem - we're good at that - but even if we do get hurt Ren's got potions, Fox has Cure, and there's a city close by, right? I think our chances are good enough. Hey, didn't you say you found Ifrit, Fox? Maybe he could help..."

She squinted up at the thing. "Huge bastard," she muttered before digging in her bag and pockets. She pulled out grenades, a couple smoke bombs, and a dagger, absently shoving the last item in with a nunchaku. "Don't suppose these'd be any help, hm?"

Fox made a face best described with the text emoticon 8D as she checked her quiver. She'd been experimenting with ways of making arrows more effective against larger monsters and had found a way to make exploding arrows that weren't so heavy it shortened their range. The Moogles had been helpful in this and had even helped with a specially designed quiver to keep the different types of arrows separate. The quiver could also hold a lot more than it looked like it could, but whether they'd figured it out on their own or gotten the spell from Ryan, the Moogles wouldn't say. That was off topic anyway.

"These might not do a lot of damage to it, but they will get its attention. I have Curaga, we do have a buttload of potions and the nearest town... isn't really that close. Giruvagen is a ruin so the nearest place to get help is the Vierra village in Golmore Jungle. We could probably get there relatively quickly with the Chocobos... if they don't run away on us while we're fighting."

She paused and eyed the things Ray was pulling out of her pockets.

"Hmm... The grenades and smoke bombs would probably be the most useful. We really don't need to kill this bastard, just keep him busy for a little while and not get dead in the process. Either way, I'm ready when everyone else is."

Ren pursed her lips and whistled softly (or at least tried to--she never could get the hang of it) at the sight of Ray and Fox's toys. "Aww, now I'm jealous," she teased, getting her grin back.

"All right, we don't have much time to waste in getting this cure mixed up," she mused, giving one last glance at what was beyond the Behemoth. "Let's get this over with, shall we?"

Aria made sure her Chocobo wasn't freaking out and that Pancake was secure.

"Yes, let's," she said before falling silent and waiting for her chance to get passed.
