Jacin, Rasim, Glass@alpha_qu33n Malefio mrfuzz111The three of you step out of the swirling portal and into a world of light. The warm sunlight feels like a drastic difference from the dark island. A gentle breeze blows past you, carrying cherry blossom petals with it. As your eyes adjust to the light, you're met with a beautiful view. Meadows filled with flowers surround you on all sides. The flowers come in all various colors and make a beautiful spectrum together. Cherry trees seem to be scattered throughout as well. Golden dinosaurs wander throughout the fields, grazing peacefully. You can see a small flock of seagulls flying overhead as well. From your current position, on top of a small hill, you can see a few key points of interest. One is a larger cherry tree sitting on top of another hill. Another is a sparkling lake in the small valley made by the surrounding hills. Another is a small cherry tree forest not far from here. Hm...? There's something else here as well. RasimAs you step into the flowery meadow, your foot kicks something solid in the flower patches beneath you. You reach down and pick it up, finding what looks like a pair of wireless headphones. It sounds like a piano remix is playing through them.

"Well... If I was a lady collecting vines, I'd be in the densest area, right?
Do you guys want to go in the forest right now or shall we explore other areas first?"

“Hold that thought...” Rasim looks around attempting to find anything that might hint at where the headphones’ owner went. If not he’ll just keep them handy, theoretically we could use them to find the owner by seeing if the signal starts getting choppy to know we’re going the wrong way.

"Checking the densest part sounds logical to me. After you."

Rasim
You look around, taking a few steps around the area and listening to the headphones. You notice the song is actually somewhat choppy right now. You must be a little ways away from the owner.
Everyone
Following the logic that the plant woman must be with the plants, you decide to make your way toward the cherry tree grove.
The walk there is almost calming. There's something peaceful about this place. Comfortable weather, clear skies, and beautiful sights. You notice that as you get closer, the music from the headphones seems a bit clearer. You must be getting closer to the owner.
You reach the edge of the cherry tree grove, taking a quick look around. It's calm. You haven't run into anything dangerous yet. The dinosaurs in the field were relatively harmless so long as you kept your distance. They would glance at you from time to time, but would mostly mind their own business.
As you walk among the cherry trees, you notice fruit is growing up in the treetops. The cherries look ripe. You could always take some time to pick them. Of course, it would take a short while, and you are on a mission.
Regardless of your choice, the music from the headphones is getting clearer and clearer. It seems you're quickly approaching the source.

“The owner of these is close, stay alert.”

Jacin pulls his handgun from his waistband and checks to make sure there are bullets.

Everyone
You progress deeper into the cherry tree grove, ignoring the ripe fruit. You have mission to complete.
You eventually make your way to a clearing with a small pond. Floating just above it is what looks to be a swirling mass of light energy. It looks like its gathering energy from the whole area.
"Ngh... Is someone there...?"
You look around, hearing a weak voice. Your eyes settle on what looks to be a teenage boy tied up with thorned vines. He's wearing a graphic tee depicting a sea serpent thrashing around in the ocean along with a black hoodie and jeans. There's a blue power symbol on the back of his hoodie. He also has what looks like a shark tooth necklace around his neck and a key in his hand. "Be careful. She's coming..."
You start to feel the ground rumble, immediately stepping back as the earth itself upheaves, revealing a massive flower. The vines wrapped around the boy grow longer, holding him high in the air. You watch as the massive flower blooms, emitting a bright light. A being of pure light in the shape of a woman stands atop the blossom, wearing a mask on her face. "Humans, in the Flowery Fields? I told you to leave years ago. You won't lay your hands on $@#!%."
Huh...? What did she just say? Your head feels a bit fuzzy. It's like something just got blocked out. What's going on? Solara doesn't seem to be doing to well either.
She places one hand on her head and red sparks of electricity buzz around her. "Ngh..." She shakes her head and the sparks disappear. She seems much more furious than before. "If you don't leave now... I'll force you to leave myself!"
Two more flowers come up out of the ground, but they do not blossom. Both are smaller than Solara's flower and stay as buds. You notice them gathering light from the sphere hovering above the water. Solara raises a hand in the air and you can feel the wind blowing harder than before.

Jacin takes aim at the sphere hovering above the water and fires at it.

"I won't say no to more support... Someone cover me!"
Glass will shoot Solara towards her head to make her think he's attacking, bur purposedly miss to distract her from the fact that what he's actually doing is throwing a torch on the vines to free the teenager.

“On it!” Rasim will create a swirl of sand around Solara to obscure her vision, then hop to one side in case she attacks where he’s standing now before bracing himself against the wind.

Everyone
Jacin immediately starts firing at the glowing sphere above the water, but finds that his gunshots pass right through it.
"You would dare to lay a finger on the Light Soul!"
Solara turns to Jacin, but it immediately sprayed in the face with a blast of sand. Glass moves in, aiming just slightly away from Solara and firing his flare gun, missing intentionally. She moves slightly to the side, wiping the sand out of her eyes.
While Solara is recovering, Glass lights a torch and throws it at the vines holding the boy. The vines immediately catch fire and start to burn away, but they're still wrapped around the boy. "Ngh...! It burns!" You notice him struggling harder and the vines getting weaker.
They break for just a moment and give him an opening. The boy drops down, rolling forward. You see him hold the key in his hand to the sky. "Alright, Soul Key! Activate already!"
A powerful geyser of water blasts out of the ground, around the boy, putting the flames on him out. When he steps out, he looks different. He seems to have completely changed clothes. He wears blue and gold scale greaves, blue swim trunks, fin-like pauldrons, and gold and blue gauntlets. He also wears a golden circlet with blue fins on his head. His hair is now frosted with blue tips and his eyes are glowing slightly blue. He's also got a dragon-like tail now. You notice his gauntlets have large speakers on the palms. Since he's shirtless, you can see the small scratches and burns from the vines.
"Maybe now I can be a little more help." The boy steps back from Solara, pointing his gauntlets at her. You can hear music playing from them. You feel stronger than you did before...
Solara turns to Glass with fury in her eyes. "You would DARE to bring flames into this sacred place!?" You feel the wind kick up, becoming even stronger. "One thousand cherry blossoms! Cut our enemies!"
The cherry blossom petals spin around the three of you in a powerful flurry. Each one seems incredibly sharp and cuts you when passing by. All three of you receive various cut wounds on your bodies. It hurts, but you're still standing.
The flowers gathering light open up, revealing a rose and a sunflower. The rose has massive, gnashing teeth and the sunflower has a smiling face on it.
Solara seems focused on Glass. She's glowing brightly.
The boy grimaces. "I don't like the look of this..."

Question, how thick is the stem on the rose?

Question, how thick is the stem on the rose? Decently thick. About six inches in diameter.

I'm gonna run out of bullets quickly if I keep at it like this.
Jacin takes a moment and focuses. He channels the constant rage inside and focuses on pushing it out the beast. His nails and teeth elongate into to claws and fangs as he shifts and grows into large wolf man.
