"Maybe if we attacked it all together at the same time, we could throw it off guard..." Paldonna said slowly, though that was clearly her hunter instinct crazing the scaley skin of the beast. "But, then again, probably not such a good idea..." She said, now less like a predator waiting for the strike. She lowered her spear, still staying crouched down.

The brother's nod, going to try and side step the beast' attention, they neither want to anger it

Paldonna seems to sink into the taller grass, her hood burying her face. spear drifting along with her like a breeze.

Atherius continued to point his blade towards the beast as it emerged. Keeping his predatory gaze upon it as he side-stepped with the rest of them. Even with the beasts size, he didn't seem to falter or shake at the sight of it, burning with a very determined, almost suicidal, air about him. Following along as he covered the group.

Paldonna glances over at Atherius. She would say something probably a bit like 'who cares about the others, just hurry' but she held her words back considering that the water creature had ears.

The brother's follow the one with the shield closest to their plate armored companion and the beast.

Paldonna still stayed crouched down, determined to remain silent from the beast. Those within a couple feet of her could hear her muttering certain sounds that she could possibly make if she made a wrong step, so it was clear she was cautious of her footing.

And that's when it turned- in their direction, stomping slowly as it surveyed its territory, large scaly tail covered in fins dragging along behind it. It inhaled and exhaled with a very reptilian bellow as it walked along. Vellian picked up the pace, hoping that it wouldn't see them. She made a small hand motion to the others, signaling for them to do the same.

Paldonna instantly moved quicker, almost like a slow spring through the grass, trying to move with the tall grass with any breezes that passed by.

Fredercik goes to douse the lantern hopping it's not to late to go unnoticed he'll fight to light it later. As he prepares to run after the women, lingering as his brother tries to pull on the Plate mailed chum's shoudler to make sure he flees to, and doesn't try to Solo it.

Since Atherius was wearing his heavy-armor, he had no way to pick up the pace without causing an obnoxious noise to give away their position. So, he continued on his pace as he followed his companions, still holing his blade out on the chance that the creature notice and strike at them. Though, he was still with them and in their sights, so they knew he was keeping up!

Paldonna paused in her creeping through the grass. She crept back to Atherius so he wasn't stuck in the back by himself, creeping along down low by him.

The hydra was closing ground with them, and if there was anything to notice about it was that it was not on alert, but instead it was doing a simple walk, oblivious of them at the moment. But since the heroes had to crawl and crouch across, it was moving faster. Vellian frantically looked at the giant water-dwelling beast, picked up a stick and tossed it far into the lake. The resulting splash caused the hydra to turn its head and rapidly snap at the water, giving them some time. Her face turned from neutral to slightly terrified.

Paldonna took the distraction to advantage immediately, racing to get to cover, forgetting about stealth and now taking a full run.

Atherius nodded his head and twisted around. At this, Paldonna could perhaps have a clue of what he was thinking. Leaning forwards, and placing his blade back to his shoulder, he rushed off and breathed out, rushing forwards as he went to get out of the creature's sight. His armor clanking, chains ringing, and a steady repeat of his breaths as he pushed into just between a jog and a sprint. He'd also motion to Frederick as he came by, and if they quickly stared past his guise to see his face through the partings in the faceguard for him to breath, they'd notice his lips curled into a small grin; though it would only last for a moment as he went off to get away from the beast.

Glanced from one person to the next, being torn whether to run for her own life, not caring for the people she'd just met, or sticking with group as a safety in numbers sort of thing. She slowed for only a second before taking off as fast as she could go - and considering she probably ran a lot, that was considerably fast, especially being one without any heavy metal armor.

The brothers sprint after with the moment the stick bought, they don't want to be hydra food!

Vellian, too, sprinted with them. Behind the heroes, a large yell of anger and stomping could be heard for a while, and a disgusting 'hock' before a hissing noise sounded next to them. Upon looking over, Vellian realized it was the spit of the beast, and that only encouraged her to sprint faster. Once they passed the lake, the hydra gave up chase, maybe finding something delicious or getting fatigued. Vellian looked around at the others, breathing heavily.
"Everyone here?"

Atherius came to a screeching halt as he looked back to see the poison spit behind him. Sighing out, he shook his head.
"Disgusting. Yeah, I'm still here and kicking with the living."

Frederick is looking around.
Palid Speaks.
"I hope it didn't.... didn't find the... man we left crippled, that... is not a death I'd want on anyone.."
