Begin simulation.

Kayla moved forwards through the jungle.
Not liking the current odds at the present time.
Where was Storm?
Was this supposed to be a one on one thing with this idol?
No the computer said teamwork.
To help assist both parties with their powers.
Then how come she felt so alon.....
Wait a minute she wasn't alone anymore.
Feeling the walls caving in on her.
Several vines struct out from the sides.
Grabbing a hold of her wrists, arms and ankles holding her in place.
She tried to break free from them with her own strength, only to feel the vines tugging tighter.
Another vine whipped out and encircled around her throat, starting to strangle her.
She gasped for some air, feeling an overwhelming feeling take over her.
The bone claws sprang forth from her hands, as she managed to free one hand, by slicing through the vines.
Reaching up to slice away at her other set of vines holding onto her hand.
Her ankles were still tied up, as she struggled to get the vines up off her neck.
She could feel her breath leaving her, as she struggled further.
A silent ping of sound echoed in her ears once more.
Activating the disc in her neck.
That was all it took as she went completely mad.
The vines around her neck was severed to pieces by the claws she had.
Blood already drenching her suit and arms, from the jagged claws.
Kayla managed to kick up both of her feet at once, as she sliced through the vines gracefully.
Her eyes had gone completely dark as another set of vines went flying towards her.
Whipping at her backside and down along her legs, trying to wrap around her once again.
Kayla let out a blood curling scream as she went jin jitsu on all of the foilage attacking her.
By the time she was finished, the whole ground looked like a salad had been tossed into a food processor.
Blood was still dripping down along the ground, at her feet.
As her breathing was hard, trying to recontrol herself.
Where the vines had made their marks around her neck, arms, wrists and ankles had left deep indentions.
That were slowly starting to fade away.
Kayla was ready for the next attack, however she wasn't about to fight off those damned things again.
Making her move away from the general area off to another section of the jungle.
Her mind was not normal, it was of something else.
As she felt she was under control of something, yet again.

Kayla didn't exactly see Storm right away, through the haze of events.
She saw another attacker.
This one more surreal than before, Sabretooth.
Kayla gasped, placing her hands up along her temple, hoping that this was some sort of the programming.
Hearing Sabretooth taunting her, as the man approached her with claws.
"GET AWAY FROM ME!!"
Kayla shouted towards Sabretooth, not realizing it was Storm.
Her claws shot out through the backsides of her hands, as she got into a defensive striking mode.
A sneer plastered across her lips, as she glared at Sabretooth.
She hated that man with a passion.
Why now of all times.
Was this part of the simulation?
Or was this all in her head?
Possibly the device in her neck was causing the hallucination taking place.
She could hear a muffled voice in the background, in a pleading voice.
Outraged, Kayla shouted back at Sabretooth.
"What did you do to Storm!?"
"You better not have hurt her, or so heaven help me."
"I'll kill you!"
The vision of Sabretooth, flicking his claws at her, when in reality it was Storm reaching out for Kayla to help her out.
She heard a mocking tone from Sabretooth, emit out into the jungle, "I'd like to see you try...."
