*One of the purple aliens cautiously approached Silver and Kaida.* "You... You drove off little monsters... Are you here to hurt us too?"

"No, why would we want to hurt you? We just want to find a portal so we can go home. You haven't seen one by any chance have you? "Kaida asked the purple alien that had spoken to them.

"Not know, portal." the alien replied. "But little monsters speak of volcano in center of island. Maybe there what you looking for."

"Well even though it sems like an obviouse trap. I vote we go to that volcano." Kaida said to Silver and Neo who seemed to be getting further away from them.

Neo begain to think of where this portal might just be. He didn't notice anything in the east part of the island and nothing in the village. In fact he wasn't really sure what it would even look like. Neo sighed. It could be just off the coast but that would be alot of water to cover. Neo decided a more logical area and started to head south towards the center of the island.

*Taking the path they'd come on, Neo, Silver, and Kaida have no trouble retracing their steps. Eventually the reach the fork in the road. One path leads South back to the beach where they had started, on leads to the East, where Silver and Kaida had met the blue aliens, and one leads West towards the center of the island and, presumably, the volcano.*

"Well I know where I'm going" Kaida said as she headed off down the path that headed west.

((Since most of the people playing in this round seem to have dropped out, I'm gonna try to speed this last part up as much as I can.))

*Following the West path, the group eventually leaves the jungle and finds themselves at the base of a steep rocky mountain. The path forks, with a twisty trail leading up the slope and a path that appears to lead around the base. The group could here strange sounds coming from higher up the mountain.*

"Ooo mountian climing! I've always loved mountian climing." Kaida smiled as she started leading the way up the twisty trail towards the strange sounds.

*The noise grows louder as the group follows the trail up the mountain. Although there are no trees on the mountain there are a lot of bushese and other plants that obscure their view. As they round a corner, they spot the source of the noise in the distance. It appears some sort of fight it going on further down the path (and right in the middle of it at that) but Kaida and the others are too far to make out the details.*

Kaida stopped on the path as she saw that there was some sort of fight going on. Although since they were to far away she couldn't tell what was happening. So instead of standing around she decided to keep moving forwards so she could see better.

*As Kaida drew closer she could see the blue aliens she and Silver had met earlier fighting with the furry aliens that had attacked her earlier. Shortly past them was a brilliant orange light floating in mid-air. It appeared to be a portal. The aliens were currently busy fighting each other but if she moved any closer they would certainly spot her.*

"For some reason, I get the feeling that big orange floaty thing is important," Silver said quietly as to not attract the attention of the aliens. "So.. should we run for it?"
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

"It beats standing around here." Kaida replied. "On the count of 3 we go for it, 1... 2... 3... Go!" Kaida said befor dashing out intot he midst of the fight heading straght for the big orange light.

((FYI: If I wasn't trying to hurry and end this round so we can drop all the unactive players, you wouldn't have it so easy. Speaking of which, the round is nearly over now.))

*Catching the batting teams by surprise, Silver and Kaida managed to break right through the battle. Seeing this, the aliens strop fighting and run after them. Silver and Kaida make it into the portal first, followed closely by the other two teams. There's a bright flash and the humans find themselves on large a brightly lit circular platform surrounded by darkness. On the opposite end of the platform stood a group of tall and lanky green aliens.*

"BONUS ROUND!" A voice filled the area. "READY...FIGHT!"
