"Out of the way, nimrod!" Seifer growled, slashing through the Shadow and charging forward to attack the one that looked to have taken less damage with three more slashes. He'd have to work fast or they'd bring the roof down on him, and that wasn't exactly something he wanted happening. [Recap: Attack (Bladed) x4 Bladed Weapon Trainee] [hp=21/36]

The Shadow in front of him burst into shreds before his eyes, and the other Shadow quickly did the same as the blows landed, distracted as it was. There was only one Shadow left, diligently digging into the wall. There was a loud crack and rumble, and it still went at it. Shadow 3 [hp=3/8]

"Crap..." Seifer hissed under his breath, furiously attacking the Shadow in the hopes of taking it down before it could cause another cave-in. This area collapsing could make others seal off, too, and then he'd never get out of these tunnels. He hopped backwards towards the still-opened pathway after dealing his attacks, ready to run if the ceiling of the cave decided to start falling in.

Unfortunately, Seifer was perhaps TOO furious in trying to stop the cave in. As the Shadow disappeared, his blade hit where it had been sinking its claws into the ground/rock walls.
There was another loud rumble.
He'd better run now. Small pebbles were starting to fall from the roof of the tunnel.

"Well ain't this a kick in the head..." Seifer said to himself, turning and running down the tunnel. Getting flattened by the roof of a cave wasn't exactly on his list of things to do in life, and he wasn't sticking around to find out what it was like to be buried alive. He was more worried that the rest of the tunnel would start collapsing, too; then he'd be in a tight spot, for sure. He just hoped he'd get out of here before he was flat as Rai's brain.

Seifer would find himself running into a large cavern, but one that would look like a dead end; no tunnels out of here. The opposite side of the cavern dipped down and into a large pool of water that looked really deep on its far end, deep enough Seifer wouldn't be able to see the bottom of it.
Meanwhile, the tunnel he had just exited had the crashing noise of falling rocks getting louder and louder, and if he looked back he would see the collapsing tunnel like a wave of rocks moving towards him.

Well, it was either start swimming and hope there was a way out through there, or be crushed by falling rocks. Seifer hoped that neither of the worse possibilities came to pass, but he wasn't going to stick around long enough to find out how stable the ceiling of this cave was. He dove into the water and started swimming, hoping there was a passageway out of here.

Seifer would find a cave tunnel deep down under the water level on the far side of the cavern. Meanwhile, there were large splashes are large chunks of rock began falling into the pool from the roof. One came dangerous close to him.
It was certainly time to get out of this place, and he had better hope he could hold his breath for as long as it takes.

Seifer stuck his head above the water and took a deep breath before diving down, swimming as quickly as he dared to into the tunnel. If he swam too fast, he'd end up running out of air, and if he didn't, well, he'd have to be scraped off the base of the cave. He did his best to keep his focus on getting out of here alive rather than focus on the collapsing cave behind him. He was going to get out of here!

Now, obviously, Seifer didn't make it out ali-
Wait, what? What do you mean I'm reading an old version of the script?
Alright, fine, give me the new pages. Ahem.
By the time he reached the end of the tunnel, Seifer felt like his lungs were about to collapse. However, the collapsing cave actually aided him. The rocks falling in the underwater tunnel displaced enough water to create a current sending him flying outwards! Unfortunately, he hit his head on part of the rock and passed out at the last second.
When he woke up, he'd find himself having washed up on the beach with a massive headache.
