"Ugh...Guys, stop! There's a 7" cliff down here. You need to jump."
Unknown to the others, Cat Assassin had fallen down the cliff as well. Unable to grab the rope, he was not able to make his fall felt, save for some rocks that he had kicked along.
Cat Assassin yelped. Though the depth of the cliff may be tolerable for him, he wasn't even aware that he would fall. He landed badly on his right knee, hurting it severely.
He could hear his cohorts trying to hold on the ropes that was inhibiting Zaha from suffering the same fate as his. "... If you're done, help me out..." he said, trying to stand up but to no avail. He could also feel his feet being covered with something, but he wasn't quite sure if he was sinking into a quicksand or being devoured by a swarm of dark-dwelling pests.

PFA thought she heard a yelp from Cat Assassin, and gripped the rope tighter. "Uncle, what happened?" she called into the darkness again.

Trying not to cause any more trouble, Ringo tried to step backwards only to be pushed forwards by an invisible force.
"Eep!" Ringo yelped as she struggled to keep her balance, she was going to fall and cause even more trouble.
"PFA!" Ringo screamed, she knew if she fell, Cat Assassin and Zaha would meet a terrible fate.

'JUMP! NOW! There's someone behind you!' Zaha slid slowly down the rope until her feet touched the ground. 'NOW!'

'I'll get PFA and SRGNG!' Zaha dropped the rope and jumped up, scaling the cliff swiftly. She grabbed the remaining two and pulled them over the edge, to land on something familiar. She turned and gaped at the face mapped before her in movement. 'Who- Zaha?' 'Xora!'

"DON'T JUMP DOWN HERE!" Cat Assassin warned. He could slowly feel his legs being consumed by whatever was inhibiting him from standing up. It was too late, however, as Ringo had already followed him down. Only able to see heat signs of his cohort's body, the feline reached out for Ringo before anything could happen to the gal.

"URK!" Ringo's legs became consumed by a strange substance.
"Cat Assasin!" She wailed "What's happining? I was told to jump but..." She sank deeper into the 'stuff'.
"CA. Maybe this is quicksand... Perhaps it is only a few feet deep, I learned when I was younger to realax and float in quicksand."

'Guys! We've found Xora!' Zaha yelled. 'She's half-comatose in the corner!'

Cat Assassin could not believe Zaha was more worried about Xora than she was about him and Ringo. He could understand a bit since she was clueless about their situation, but he knew he only has an instance to react.
"Help us here! We're getting sucked in!" Cat Assassin said, trying to minimize his movements. The feline was still trying to reach Ringo, but to no avail. Guiding Ringo through his echoes would not prevail thanks to the distortion that might disturb her from knowing its source.
((I just realized we're all down... I'll just pretend we landed on the wrong spot xDDDD))

"ZAHA... WE'RE DYING... HERE!" Yowled Ringo, gasping for air, the substance was up to her neck.

Everything happened so fast. PFA heard Ringo scream, then Zaha shouted about someone behind them, and suddenly Zaha came over and grabbed her and SRGNG, pulling them down a cliff.
Jernath was a little annoyed that Zaha seemed to have forgotten about him, but he followed the rope to the cliff and hopped down. He was lucky, and didn't land in whatever Cat Assassin and Ringo landed in, but he could hear their shouts.
"Help us here! We're getting sucked in!" "ZAHA... WE'RE DYING... HERE!"
Jernath tried to think quickly. He soon realized that he was still holding the rope. Maybe he could throw the rope to CA and Ringo, and they could grab on... unfortunately, he could not see them, so it was hard to tell where they were.
He closed his eyes for a moment, concentrating on CA and Ringo's shouts, where they were coming from. Once he got a pretty good idea where they were, he took a deep breath and tossed the rope in their direction.
"Can you grab onto the rope?" he called to them, hoping he wasn't too late...

"Can you grab onto the rope?"
"Yes!" Ringo shouted, grabbing onto the rope with both hands hoping that CA had done the same.

'What? Fishpaste! Sorry, I'm coming!' Zaha located Jernath and Grabbed the rope. 'One...isn't enough...to pull them out! PFA! Help?' Zaha's hair was falling in the way of her whiskers, making her unsure as to where everyone was.
Xora resumed trying to chew through her bonds, yellow eyes narrowed.

Ringo grabbed CA's wrist with one hand and the rope with the other and held on tight, deturmened not to let go of CA or the rope.
