[Kunsel's boots splash through suspiciously murky puddles as he pelts down the tunnels, hot on Zack's heels. There had been thunderstorms recently, causing the channels in the sewers to overflow onto the service paths that run alongside them - but also bringing with them an influx of monsters not normally found in this area.]
Yeah, well, maybe next time you'll listen to your buddy who does his research!
[To be fair, no one had known what exactly had floated in with the storms, but come on! It's just good sense to be armed with Fire when going into such a wet environment.
Anything else Kunsel might have said on the matter, though, gets cut off when one of the monsters shrieks. Kunsel curses and dodges, something supersonic and nearly invisible ripping through the air just where he'd been.]
Careful! I think these things have some kind of energy attack that-!
[He dodged the first one, but then there's half a dozen more all following the first one's lead, and there's no room in these tunnels to avoid that many blasts. One catches Kunsel's legs in mid-leap, setting his nerves on fire. With a strangled cry, he lands back down.

His legs buckle, collapsing him to the ground.]
