Description Oh god, how long have I been out? Lara's head pounded as she finally came to, finding herself alone in the room Clayface had left her. The last thing I can recall was Alexander striking me... Her thoughts were scattered as she tried to remember exactly what had happened, but Lara was still in a daze. She attempted to move her arms but found they were restrained by numerous folds of rope. Her mouth was gagged as well, rendering Lara unable to even call for help. That's right, he left me tied up after spitting me out. The last thing I remember inside of him was hearing Drake scream. God, Drake...I can't believe she's dead. It's all my fault, I called her here. The recollection of the horrid memory was painful for Lara, only compounded by the fact that she knew the same had happened to Kokoro. She choked back her tears for now, she would have time to mourn them later. 

A more immediate concern called for her attention anyway. For some reason, Clayface had left the door ajar, offering Lara a clean escape from the room. She moved to rise from the bed, but an audible croaking noise froze her in place. Lara's eyes widened as the largest frog she had ever seen hopped into the room, exploring the manor at its leisure. She was quick to roll to her left off the bed, hitting the floor harder than she meant to. Lara struggled to free her arms, but the ropes held steady. The noise from her fall attracted the lurker's attention much to Lara's dismay. Damn it all! She muttered something to herself, but only muffled words escaped her mouth. The frog began hopping toward her location as Lara lay helpless on her side. 

Panic would have overtaken the Croft had another sudden arrival not intervened. "Come on, you're going in there." A harsh voice snapped as it entered the room. Lara dared to peer around the corner of the bed to get a glimpse of who it might be. She was alarmed to find her cousin Lauren clad only in lingerie, her arms bound behind her back. She was kicked into the room by a woman Lara had never seen before, though her treatment of Lauren caused a glimmer of rage to spark with Lara. "Oh god, what is that?!" Lauren exclaimed upon seeing the lurker, daring to back away from the creature. "Oh no, you're not going anywhere." The woman cackled as she shoved Lauren toward the frog, forcing her to kneel directly in front of it. She crossed her arms in anticipation of the coming show. I've got to do something! I can't lose Lauren as well! 

Lara Croft


Health: 75% (0% modifier to chance to be devoured at current health state), Bound and gagged (+12% modifier to chance to be devoured due to restraints)

Entourage: Lauren Croft: 80% health (0% modifier to chance to be devoured at current health state), Wrists bound (+5% modifier to chance to be devoured due to restraints)


Foes: Sonya Blade: 100% health (-10% modifier to chance to be devoured at current health state)

Inventory: Nothing

A) Burst out from Lara's hiding place and attempt to ambush Lauren's captor, Lara might be able to take them by surprise long enough to divert the lurker's attention from Lauren. She won't be able to put up much of a fight in her current state, but it's better than doing nothing. (65% chance of success, 30% chance of Lauren being devoured, 60% chance of Lara being devoured if Lauren isn't, 20% chance of Sonia being devoured if the first roll is successful)

B) Attempt to sneak up on Lauren's captor and assault her from behind, it's a long shot given the open layout of the room, but Lara doesn't have many other options. The frog can serve as a distraction in Lara's favor in this case. (45% chance of success, 70% chance of Lauren being devoured, 35% chance of Lara being devoured if Lauren isn't, 60% chance of Sonia being devoured if the first roll is successful)

C) Hold her position and wait just a bit longer, Lara would hate to do this, but it might be prudent to be patient in this situation. (90% chance of Lauren being devoured, 30% chance of Sonia being devoured if Lauren isn't)

D) Toss herself out and draw everyone's attention away from Lauren, Lara will create a diversion for her to escape. It could mean sacrificing herself, but she won't let anything happen to her cousin. (80% chance of success, 20% chance of Lauren being devoured, 65% chance of Lara being devoured regardless if Lauren isn't, 15% chance of Sonia being devoured if no one else is.)

I decided to take a break from Anna's perspective for now. Posing that scene is going to be a pain in the ass so enjoy some Tomb Raider peril and slight bondage in the meantime.

Oh hey, it's nice to see Lara up and about again. I'd be happy seeing any of these of three be swallowed, but Sonia's a bit of a bitch so hopefully it'll be her. It's risky, but I've got to go with B for the highest chance of Sonia being the lurker's dinner.
