Depends on where they step

This tunnel was surprisingly warmer and more humid then Caroline expected. Not that she was complaining. At least now her nipples can finally stop being hard. It feels weird for her feet though. So different from the street she had to walk on previously. This is all moist and squishy in comparison. At least it felt softer than stone, so that’s at least one good thing.

Another good thing about this tunnel is at least she no longer has to worry about those giant wasps. Ever since her last encounter with them she’s become very afraid of those. They almost got her after all. But now it’s impossible for them to show up and attack. That said, if a large group of towerlings shows up on both sides, they may very well be screwed in both meanings of the word.

They do make good progress without being interrupted. As they get closer to the tower the tunnel widens, allowing the soldiers to spread out more. Though at about 2 miles from the tower the tunnel changes a little. A pattern of pink five-pointed stars appears on the tunnel floor. Myada orders one of the soldiers to take off her shirt. Once the soldier is topless, Myada wraps the shirt up into a ball and throws it onto one of the pink stars. With blinding speed, the star pattern rears up like a flesh-eating plant and closes its five petals, trapping anything inside. While it is closed like this, a yellow bulb is noticeable between its petals and its … ‘stem’ for a lack of a better word. Then it pulls itself down and disappears into the floor. After a few seconds, the hole it left behind is replaced by a different flower.

“Careful about your steps, girls. Avoid these star flowers at all cost.” Myada orders. Then she orders Second Company to continue.

Second company continues forward through the tunnel. Perhaps if the tunnel was dark, it would have been too dangerous to go on. But if the soldiers just don’t rush and watch their step the traps are easily avoided.

When they are about halfway through, they hear the sounds of Lupicks coming from behind. These must have followed them through the metro station. The snipers move to the back and start taking down some of the towerlings. Just like the women, the Lupicks need to avoid the flower patterns on the ground. One of the wounded Lupicks falls onto a flower and captured by it, pulled deeper into the mass. Once the Lupicks get too close for comfort, a few grenades are shot into their ranks. But when they explode it has a reaction on the tunnel. Holes appear in the ceiling from which long sticky tentacles appear. The tentacles hang like tongues. When a Lupick runs into one of them, it wraps around him and pulls him up. When Myada sees this, she realizes they need to get out of here and quick and orders her troops to double time it.

Since the women are hasty now, it becomes more difficult to watch their steps. Eventually one of them misplaces her foot and steps on a pink flower. The flower closes its petals around her in a flash and drags her down.

“Lizzy!” One of the other soldiers yells.

She runs after the flower that took Lizzy, but ends up stepping on one herself. That flower captures her just like it captured her friend. It took but a second for Lizzy to disappear. And another second for her friend.

Other soldiers, though successful at avoiding the flowers, get caught by the tentacles and get dragged up.
Caroline can avoid them just fine, but comes across a soldier that was captured by a tentacle. One of those that had lost her pants during the last attack. It her already pulled her upper body into the ceiling and was sliding its tentacle in and out of her pussy. Caroline aimed her rifle at a yellow bulb next to the captured soldier and shot it. When it was destroyed the tentacle relaxed, let go of her and the woman fell down onto one of the pink flowers just to get immediately captured again.

“Caroline? What are you doing?” Myada asked.

“I tried saving someone.” Caroline responded.

“There is no time.” Myada says. “A gang of Lupicks are coming this way. MOVE FASTER!”

Myada’s words spur Caroline to continue running. She sees more soldiers get swallowed by both the ground and the ceiling but this time can’t afford to stop to help them.

When the soldiers in front get past the traps laid for them in the tunnel they turn around and take aim at the approaching Lupicks. The more troops who make it past, the more Lupicks get taken down. This time, Myada orders them to not used grenades and not even flame throwers. She does not want to risk another series or tentacles coming out of the ceiling. Eventually all the soldiers get past the traps and take down the remaining Lupicks. Unfortunately, Myada thinks it is too dangerous to go back and liberate some of their fellows that got trapped by the tentacles. They are too far away from them, so if they do go back, they’d risk getting themselves captured for women that would get swallowed before they can even reach them. This leaves them **** to watch their sisters get **** by the tentacles. Their butts and legs are sticking out of the ceiling. They are kicking their legs, trying to fight a way out. But when they receive a load of sperm in them, they give up, seemingly relaxed and euphoric, and are pulled into the ceiling.
