Description
After having had enough of the growths and their tendrils, Lady Death roared and enhanced her strength before tearing into Black Widow's asaillant. She stabbed her sword through the growth and directly into the tentacle, expertly stopping before Widow herself could be harmed. She then ripped the blade and slashed a side gash across the front lip, cutting it off in its entirety above the fog. The popped the tendril out of a grateful Widow's mouth and tore her free with one hand while backing away for good measure."Ptui!" Widow spit out the remnants of the fluid from her mouth before collapsing in a heap, catching her breath after being exposed to her previous indignation for so long. "That was rough. I don't even remember feeling half of what was going on. But thanks." She flashed Lady Death a genuine smile only for the warrior to brush it off. "Think nothing of it. You're an ally and would have done the same for me." Lady responded with a small smile of her own, still wary something might jump out at them from the fog.
Lightning took it upon herself to defend Dakini and Hannya while Lady Death was preoccupied, already anticipating a predator would be after the aspects. "Stay back and take cover if you can!" She ordered once a white Venom maw emerged from the fog. She placed herself between it and the Aspects, staving the predator off at first with a few well placed blows. Its bloated stomach slowed the beast down but not enough Lightning could easily evade it. Its strength was immense for its size and stature, threatening to crush her if she were caught in its jaws. Unfortunately for Lighning her newly increased bust size slowed her down just enough that her luck eventually ran out. She neglected using wards or enhancing her abilities out of a sense of pride that proved her downfall as the Venom maw leapt up in pursuit of her with surprising speed.
"No no no!" She screamed and tried to push it away in midair, but its massive jaw clamped down over her with ease. Her back was splashed with saliva as she began to slide down its gullet. Though it maintained a solid shape, the Venom maw was actually an amorphous being whose innards were constantly shifting. A portion of its body clamped down on Lightning's legs and arms, stifling any attempts to fight back while still slowly swallowing her. "Fuck off already!" Lightning screamed in protest as she peered into the red mouth, unable to see anything beyond it. Even its saliva burned her skin, threatening a rapid digestion if she were swallowed whole. She was horrified to find her feet pressing against what felt like other bodies, had it already eaten other women?
It was a question only Lightning knew for the moment while Gruntilda did her best to cross the mist. "Shit shit shit...." She panted, sprinting across the fog at full speed while raising a protective ward around herself. She could feel the literal ground squirming beneath her heels, whatever it was repelled by her shield. Alas it couldn't hold forever. Just when she seemed to be only a few feet from solid ground, her ward finally gave out. The familiar squish under her shoe instantly told her what was about to happen, a sense of dread running up the witch's spine.
"NNNooo-MMMMph!" Tilda was victimized in a matter of seconds with her hands restrained, legs pulled down, and a tentacle forced into her throat with only a few blinks of her eyes. She knew what was going to happen next and thrashed to free herself, but her gagged mouth and bound arms prevented any spellcasting. Next, she tasted the same disgusting substance as before though at a much more aggressive pace. Whatever was the source of the growths was becoming desperate, prepping and consuming Gruntilda at an alarming rate. Half of her body was already devoured by the time her bust swell to huge proportions, leaving the witch in a daze that begged to be rescued.
Within the Venom maw, Lightning was correct in that she wouldn't be alone in the stomach. The fog acted as a dimensional gateway for predators to easily traverse, having allowed it to grab two other damsels before chomping down Lightning. Fang screamed and pleaded to be rescued inside the stomach , unable to move in the shifting innards. Beside her, a Variant of Tifa suffered in tandem. She had been traveling with Fang and was devoured alongside her, stripped of all clothing at the same time. The Venom maw's stomach was a deadly place and threatened to rapidly digest both women if not saved....
All the while, Kelyn kept a watchful eye out for herself yet didn't flee. She was still too vulnerable to protect herself.

First, what will Lady Death do?
A) Attack the Venom Maw with her Strength Enhancement, Lady Death won't attack without using her power (60% Chance of Success, Success will rescue Lightning and allow Lady Death to rescue one of the other victims, State who else she will rescue on Success: Fang or Tifa? Failure will result in Lightning being devoured; 30% chance of Lady Death being devoured if roll fails)
B) Launch a Cyclone Blast at the predator, Lady Death is sure she can at least rescue Lightning with the power (80% Chance of Success, Success will rescue Lightning, Failure will result in Lightning being devoured; Neither Fang nor Tifa will be rescued)
C) Try to blow the Venom maw away with a Typhoon, Lady Death isn't sure if this is the best choice but this predator seems especially dangerous (50% Chance of Success, Success will rescue all three women; Lightning will be rescued regardless; Failure will result in all 3 being blown away and suffering Fatal+Slight damage)
D) Use Pyrokinesis on the Venom Maw, Lady Death will try to incinerate it from a distance (State whether she will use Moderate Blast or Major Blast below:
Moderate Blast: 75% Chance of Success, Success will rescue Lightning and allow Lady Death to rescue one of the other victims while they suffer Moderate damage, State who else she will rescue on Success: Fang or Tifa?
Major Blast: 100% Chance of Success, Success will rescue all 3 women but also inflict Fatal damage to all of them
E) Combine her Cylone and Pyro powers to scorch the Venom Maw, Lady Death might be able to blow it away and reduce the damage to the others (90% Chance of Success and will use 40% Power with no recharge next update, Success will rescue Lightning and one of the other victims with no harm; State who will be rescued with no harm: Fang or Tifa? The remaining victim will suffer Major damage; Failure will still rescue Lightning while she suffers Major damage)
F) Rescue Gruntilda, she's in nearly the same spot Black Widow was before so saving her is simple if she uses her Strength Enhancement (90% Chance of Success, Success will rescue Gruntilda; Failure will result in her being devoured)
After that, what will Black Widow do?
G) Remain back with Hannya and Dakini to guard them, Widow can use her bracers to keep any predators at bay without putting herself at risk (All three will remain safe next update; 4 shots will be expended)
H) Rescue Gruntilda, she's close enough to the fog Widow will hopefully be at minimum risk (80% Chance of Success, Success will rescue Gruntilda; Failure will result in her being devoured; 10% Chance of Black Widow being completely devoured regardless)
If Dakini and Hannya aren't protected: 20% chance of Hannya being devoured
20% chance of Dakini being devoured
Got 2 new victims if y'all want to rescue them. But it's gotta be at a price with this predator. What will y'all choose?
