Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
Cam steps to the edge of the pit. In a low voice pitched so that only Konovalov can hear he whispers: "this is not over" and jumps in, trying to land as best he can without injuring himself or hitting the others. He then sets about trying to find something to block his ears, tearing strips of cloth from his clothes and wetting them with saliva if necessary.
"Based on our previous experiences I suggest the ladies keep their distance from Mr Liu. Gentlemen, let us agree to help preserve the modesty of those of us who might get a little...carried away."

Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
Ian's body is aching everywhere. And the sounds! "Elena?? P-Please, can you low your voice? Can everybody low their voices? So-Sorry... Are you OK?" His attention drifts away for a second, focusing on a thousand sounds, before continue. "I... I'm not so good. This nectar... It's different. It's not like Trammel's. I can control myself, but the sounds... Jesus. I can hear everything. Your breathing, you heartbeats, flies... everything! I can't concentrate...."

Elena seems confused at first, but lowers her voice as she adds: "What... what music are you talking about? I don't know about that... but there are other... things down here. In the walls, somehow... and Huang Yan Liu...", she gestures towards the Chinese, then you see her shaking for the first time. You realize now that he hasn't moved since you descended, and he is not even looking towards you. He is just staring into the void, and drooling. At that moment, Jonathan lands on the bottom of the pit, near Huang Yan Liu. He takes an involuntary step back before saying: "Jesus... what happened to him?".
"They took him, as soon as we got here, and carried him away. He didn't stay away for long, but when he came back... he was like that... and I don't know what to- WATCH OUT!", she suddenly screams at Cam, who reacts just in time as something bites where his right ear was just a moment earlier. It's a mouth, more or less the size of a human mouth, coming out of the wall. No... the mouth is the wall, it's the same material, it's a mouth of stone and moss, it has teeth and lips and a tongue and everything, and it was trying to bit Cam.

Holly tries not to scream, knowing how much it would hurt Ian. In a panic, she retreats to the center of the pit, away from the walls.

Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
Cam whips his head back as the mouth snaps at the air. "What the hell is that?" he shouts: "shit, shit, shit...
"Elena, talk quickly, what's been going on here, what's happened since we last saw you?"
Cam scans the top of the pit to see if Konovalov and the other guards have left them alone. He presses his saliva soaked strips of cloth further into his ears.
"This is not good...this is not good...this is not good. We need to get out of here now."

Professor Jonathan Cornwall
"Jesus, what the hell was that?!?" the Professor yells hoarsely as he backs away from the walls.
He then quickly takes a pair of pistol bullets out of his coat pocket and shoves one in each ear.
"Damn, I wish I had my gun"

Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
"I... I don't know much. These things... whatever they are... they already were inside the walls when they put us in here. They took me by surprise and bit me once...", she moves her dress to show a bleeding wound on her right leg. "Then I stayed on the moss and they didn't get close anymore. I think .. climbing the pit would be difficult. I have no idea if they can be hurt at all..."
Meanwhile, you hear a metallic sound from above. Some of the thugs must be moving something... and you can't think of anything good. After less than a minute, you see a metal grill pushed over the pit, an old thing reddish with rust. It looks heavy, and definitely doesn't make exiting the pit any easier. Then, you hear footsteps leaving. Some of the thugs, or possibly all of them, have left the room.

Ian Morin
Ian covers his ears in desperation. "Oh God, oh God, oh God... I'm dying! I am! I can hear it. I can't stop it! What have they done to me?!?!" After realizing the uselessness of covering his ears, he tries to put himself together. "Cam's right. We have to get out of here right now. Why are you hurt? Is this a bite?"

Cam starts panting - "Oh no, oh no, we're gonna die here...no, I'm getting out, I'm getting out now".

Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
Frantically Cam starts jumping up at the wall grabbing at any handhold he can see: "gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out".
Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
Holly quietly treats Elena's leg wound, and she makes any surplus cotton balls available to anyone who needs something to put in their ears. Truthfully, she is shaken to the core, but at least falling back on her medical skills gives her something to do so that she can take her mind off of their plight.

Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
Cam starts climbing. It's not exactly an easy task, but it's definitely not impossible. The wall is not regular, and there are footholds to be found between one stone and another. The only problem is... the mouths. One opens up near Cam's leg and bites off some flesh. The pain is terrible, but the ex-con clenches his teeth and stays on the wall.
Elena screams at Cam: "Wait... oh God, they'll eat you... oh God...", as she seems to be losing her composure under the stress of the situation.

"Jesus Christ, that hurts!" gasps Cam as he aims a kick at the bloody maw.
Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
Holly winces and hugs Elena, as much to comfort herself as to comfort her. She can only hope Cam makes it out of the pit and can find a way to help the rest of them escape.

Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
Cam kicks the mouth, that lets out a shrieking scream of rage before closing and disappearing - possibly dead, but who could tell with such a monstrosity. But at least for now it's gone. You don't have time to celebrate, though, since just that moment, the singing starts. You can hear Huang Yan screaming, and convulsing as he loses control of his body. He starts scratching his skin in a mad frenzy, and he starts to bleed. Elena covers her ears with her hands, bending over as she moans in pain. "This song... it's like at the club... she sang... but worse...", she says, then collapses on her knees and throws up on the floor.
Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
Seeing that the cotton balls work well enough, Holly sticks a pair in Huang Yan's ears and then Elena's, and then the ears of anyone else who remains in the pit who doesn't already have them.

Re: [IC - Mexico City] The Ruins of the Villa
Smiling grimly at the effect of his kick Cam looks behind him at the chaos unfolding in the pit. "I'm not going to be able to help the others until I can get out of this hole and silence De La Luz or whatever is playing her song" he thinks. Through the muffling of his improvised ear plugs the dull hum pulls at the edges of his sanity. Turning from his comrades he resumes climbing, repeating out loud to himself "gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out" like some kind of mantra, trying to focus his mind on the task at hand and suppress the bubbling fears beneath the surface.
