Oh, how they wish they had listened to the legends. "Midgar has an expansive cave system", they said. "The Meteor opened a lot of it up. Be careful in the junkyard." Walked straight into a sinkhole, despite that.
The cave is dark but surprisingly warm and dry. At the moment, their visibility is limited to a feet, and that only once their eyes have adapted. The werewolf can smell life and the Ranger's scope has a nightvision. The SOLDIER'S enhanced senses also help, as does the Navarre Ninja's experience skulking in shadow. Not so the psychic, who is very well hindered by the environment.

everyone will draw there weapons in case they are going to be attacked and then mandu sama will inform the group of any attackers (snakes see black and white and it has two heads so it can see both ways).

Unfortunately for you, snakes have terrible vision; luckily for you, they have fantastic heat senses and smell. At the moment, there is no immediate danger.

Jay: "hey Rwinn give me an eye on our area." Jay will keep his gunblade out by the off chance they are suddenly attacked.
Rwinn: will look through his night vision scope to see where they are and relay it to the rest.
Jessica: will move closer to Jay and wrap and arm around his waist so that she can move with him since he isnt totally blind her other hand will have her staff at the ready.
Zylo: "well this is ironic aint it guys" (oog: is it night if so I just want to know so that if I chose I can have Zylo shift into a werewolf if nessicary)
Shade: "out of all the things that could have happened we could have been attacked by squatters, shin-ra, train ghosts, or something like the train blowing up, but no we have to fall into a sinkhole."

OOG: No, it is late day.
Through the scope, looking around shakily, Rwinn sees a narrow path, just large enough to tolerate three people wide. The nightvision starts to get muddled slightly, indicating minor phosphorence in the distance.

Jay, Zachs, and Shade will take the front with Jessica and Zwinn following behind (Jessica still holding onto Jay so that she can sorta "see") until they reach the cause of the phosphorence.

They walk forward ten, twenty, thirty, a hundred feet. Green crystalline formations begin to sparkle across the walls intermittently, and the long hallway opens up into an expansive circular room in front of them. They are fifteen feet from the threshold.

Jay will let go of Jessica and cautiously approach the threshhold and look over...

Jay slowly crosses the distance, separating himself from the team. He alone sees the majestic sight in front of him: A massive cave filled with blue scintillating light, phosphorescent and almost magical, projecting from crystalline spires. There are three winding paths, one up slightly and to the left, one down slightly and to the right, and one around and down the spires.
Taking all this in, Jay almost doesn't hear the falling sound from above!
[FN: RE 282].

Jay takes a leap back and looks up pointing his gunblade at whatever the source of the noise is ready to fire shots into it if it looks ready to attack.
OOG: do I get any action for the others? possibly after seeing Jay jump back?

OOG: They may get a very delayed reaction, but it still being relatively dark impedes that. So tell me how Jango looks.

Jango is an Asain male that stands at about 5'9 putting him just below Zwinn in height (Zwinn is the tallest of the group) and is muscled as a martial artist should be he also has blue eyes and short black hair going down to a little past his ears. Jango generally wears black and green pants and a dark blue jacket. On his back is a tattoo of the azure dragon in actuality it is a magic tattoo that grows with him and allows seriyuu to communicate to him.

Pointing his Gunblade up in the air blindly then staring down it, Jay sees a man in a jacket tumbling downwards amongst a bunch of rocks. The rocks are about to hit Jay himself before he leaps back!
Meanwhile: Jango was feeling an immense elemental force building, almost screaming through the rocks, before he lost his footing somehow...

Can Jango attempt to land correctly to not injure himself? if so he will attempt to do that.
Jay will point to the falling man in the jacket and say to Zachs "try to catch him if he attacks you ill back you up"
Zwinn readies a aim shot at the man in case he attacks Zachs.
Shade readies shuriken for the same purpose.
Jessica mearly delays her action.

Not through any normal, non-magical means.
Astoundingly, Jay and Zachs communicate this data fast enough to each other for Zachs to actually act in time, but Jango will act (or not act) first.

Jay attempts with all his might to stop himself from dying reaching into himself for the power to stop his decent for the strength to catch himself from his fall.

...You mean Jango, right? Operating off that assumption.
In front of the group, a miracle seems to occur. Crackling from the falling man, tenuous and ephemeral cords of green electricity rocket outwards and connect with the crystals. A net of moving electricity rippling in motion with the fall brings the man's fall to an end, the smell of ozone from the electrostatic effect filling the air. The cave flashes with brilliant light, then becomes just slightly less luminescent when the effect ends. The rocks continue to move at the same rate, crashing down the path below, while Jango slowly seems to pull away from them [oh, the wonders of relative motion]. Now Jango is floating on a ridge in front of the group.
Zack's jump then acts, grabbing Jango, leaping to the rear cave wall, then luckily jumping right back.

at first the Jango is stunned by being grabbed out of the air but after he regains his composure at looks at his rescuer ready to thank him.... however the words do not come. Completely overtaken with shock at his furry rescurer Jango stutters for a moment. "weeere....." his stuttering quickly ends with a punch to his savior's face.
Zachs face is only moved slightly from the punch but the shock sets in for a moment he does not move then explodes with yelling. "Is that how you treat someone who saved you asshole!!!" Zachs clawed hands grip around his throat but he is quickly pulled back by Jay and Shade barely able to hold him back.
Jessica moves over to Jango. "Hey hey its okay he was trying to help he isnt going to bite you."
Zachs yelles while being held back. "Oh bullshit ill bite your head off you ungreatful little ass."

The cave echoes with the sound of fighting and discord. Jango slowly begins to calm, though if Zachs continues to be a problem this calm may not matter.

Zwinn grabs Zachs' floppy ear and pulls a little while whispering in his low tone. "Calm down he was mearly suprised at your... furriness I am sure he meant no real harm."
Zachs stands and continues to stare to Jango while changing his tone to a formal speach. "I am sorry for attempting to choke you I assume you have never met an individual quite like me have you."
Jango also stands and speaks returning the tone. "I too am sorry for hitting you as you suspected I am not used to seeing a ummm would I be correct in assuming you are some sort of werewolf?"
Zachs tone lowers. "Yes I am but I think our previous fight might have attracted something as our voices surley echoed in here perhaps we should move from this area and try to find a way out of here."
OOG: does Jango know a way out?

Jay whispers to Jango "do you know of a way out of here?"
Jango replies with a "no I do not."
Jay sighs "oh well then lets go".
Zwinn pipes in with a suggestion. "Perhaps we should split up to look for an exit?"
OOG: can jessica make it so that the group can communicate with one another via her telepathy?
if so then the groups will split up as follows.
Jay and Shade down the central path.
Zachs and Jessica down the left path.
Jango and Zwinn down the right path.

The central path, the one leading around and down the spires, is a quite risky jaunt, with frequent opportunities to fall at least thirty feet. Nothing that would kill anyone here, but certainly would risk grievious injury. Moving forward, the two are suddenly besieged by some arrow fire! Jay can respond.
The left path, leading upwards, is substantially less dangerous, but is somewhat steep. Zachs and Jessica move upwards, passing out of sight of the cave. They move forward through somewhat less luminescence, but still enough to see. Zachs feels something barreling down the cave at them...
The right path quickly takes the two to ground level. From here, there are three exits, placed roughly radially.
