"Ridiculous..."
Diego watched the Lich and the cyborg run for the cave, and glanced at what they ran from. Immediately, it hurt his eyes to look at. Then, the he began feeling the blistering heat. Whatever it was, he decided, was not good.
Diego was inclined to follow after the two, but a certain blob hindered him. Between him and the cave was Ekelhaft. It was segmenting, changing now, although Diego could not firgure out what form it as trying to take. Instintively, He knew that Ekelhaft would lash out at him if he tried to pass it. Diego squinted his eyes, having trouble seeing in the bright light. In front of him, the blob did similar- it closed most of it's eyes, and squinted the eyes on the side not bombarded with brightness.
In a corner of his mind, he evaluated nearby sounds. The air was bending now, under the heat of the mini-sun. However, he managed to make out Calm rushing forward, charging toward the cave. Diego glared at Ekelhaft's open eye, now knowing what he would do. With heavy steps, he began walking towards the side of the blob with th open eye, allowing it to concentrate on him. In that instant, Calm rushed by. Ekelhaft's focus was momentarily occupied with Calm's sudden action, and it's eye left Diego for a second.
In that second, three arrowheads flew forward, lodging themselves roughly about Ekelhaft's open eye, blinding it. As soon as Diego fired his remaining arrowheads, he began running forward. Ekelhaft was blind, but could still hear. Violently, tentacles burst out around it, seeking the source of Diego's footsteps. Diego had heavy, deep steps, and was easily detected- until all of Diego's sounds suddenly dissappeared.
This was Diego's method of sneaking- erasing all of his own sounds. This manipulation of the air did not have a large effect, but had many uses. He had always used it when skulking around secretly, especially as he snuck up on a kill. In fact, he had been making a lot of noise as he stepped as to make the others know him as a heavy footed man, so that becoming absolutely silent would be all the more unexpected. He hadn't wanted to use it yet, but had no choice. Hopefully, the blob wouldn't be smart enough to understand exactly what he did to seemingly disappear. Quickly, he dashed all the way around Ekelhaft and it's flailing tentacles, and successfully slipped into the cave after Calm.
As he passed Elkelhaft, Diego thought about it's power.
"Insanity, huh?" he smirked at the idea of insanity. Diego didn't consider himself anything but the most sane man in existence.
