I'd like to see you try to pick this up faster... [Shoka grumbles in reply to Ren as she brushes careful scoop after scoop of the powder into Akechi's satchel, before finally declaring,] Got it!
[She's gotten most of it, at least, with only a negligible amount of residue left sparkling in the dirt and on her claws. As Akechi takes off into the air and the team gets ready to move, she moves, too, starting off back the way they came as fast as her legless form can manage. Hoping for a quicker getaway, she automatically uses Shadow Sneak, ducking down into her shadow to zip a short distance ahead.
It's fortunate for her that she happens to be in her shadow at that very moment, because a series of vines (too small and subtle to be the same vines she described earlier) erupts from the ground just then, reaching for and trying to coil around the team's legs. A particularly daring vine even outstretches up into Akechi's airspace, trying to wrap around his talon and drag him down.
A chorus of squealing cries should tell them in an instant what's happening: the trio of Amoonguss that's been tailing them has emerged from the brush and now has the team surrounded, aiming to trip them up with Grass Knot.]
