The Grand Arena
Bonny, Rikku, and Laura waited as the two went around the corner. Instantly they could hear the guards readying to fight them, the girls tensing ready to run around the corner and help if neccisary. But the two girls were smooth talkers, and before long they could hear the guards dropping their spears, the girls talking more seductively. Bonny waited for a few moments longer before finally slowly peaking around the corner. The guards pretty much had the girls in their arms, completely entranced by them. And the girls had them looking away from down the hallway. Bonny quickly turned back to the other girls. "Ok, lets go."
And with that, the three silently moved around the corner moving a few feet to the grate. Bonny then started to slowly undo it from the wall, Rikku helping her with the other side. It took them a while, all of them holding their breath. But finally they got it off, Bonny taking it any putting it against the wall. As soon as she let go however, the grate slipped slightly making a small clang. The girls instantly froze. One of the guards heard it, about to look over, but Kasumi managed to get her to look back to her instead, kissing the man. Bonny let out a small breath of relief, securing the grate before looking over to the other two. "Ok, get in. Laura first."
Laura nodded, scooting infront of the grate. She stuck a foot in. It was kind of cold water. Taking a breath, she slid in and instantly was swept away down the current. Rikku quickly slipped in as well, not making any noise. Then finally, Bonny slipped in, taking the grate with her and holding onto the side. She managed to get it in before slipping back into the current, the grate making another small sound. But they were gone by that point, it probably didn't matter.
She went down around a corner, mostly in the dark, before finally finding Laura and Rikku holding onto a rock in the middle of the stream waiting for her. They caught Bonny who thanked them. It looked like there were two different paths. One where you had to duck underwater to the right, and following the current to the left.
Bonny looked around for a bit. "Well, we have two choices. Split up, or stick together."
Laura frowned. "Lets stick together, we are already split apart."
"But we might pick the wrong way if we stay together. Kasumi and Cara are depending on us." Rikku said, worried.
Bonny nodded. "I'm betting the left path takes us to help those two, but we can't be sure. We can either all go that way, or you two can go that way and I can check out the right path. I'm probably the strongest swimmer so if i'm wrong I can get back. And if its right i'll come back and find ya'll once I get Kasumi and Cara."
