He overestimated him a good bit though, and Rose ended up having to carry him with her almost immediately. He and Mario were through the first obstacles relatively quickly, but during every look over his shoulder, he could see Rose and that penguin chugging along. Wow, teamwork would be hard when it seemed like 75% of the team would spend the entire course guiding the last 25% along by the hand...or flipper in this case.<br/><br/>Still, teamwork meant a team working together. So if Prinny needed the help, he'd get it. Prophet just wished he didn't apparently need so damn much of it. Still, he and Mario waited patiently until they caught up. Then after she set Prinny down, she glared at him and decided that his actions were worth wasting time arguing about. "I said to help him if he needed it. I had no idea he'd need so much of it." Mario volunteered to take Prinny through the next section, and he gestured at him "We are working together. You just got the first shift. Now if you want to complain  about getting the easiest job first, or whatever else, be my guest after we're done. Right now though we've got more obstacles to get through."<br/><br/>If Rose had a problem with him, or how he did things, or anything else, he was more than happy to sit down and hash it out. Or at least agree to disagree. However, he only planned to do that when they actually had time to. Right now he didn't have the luxury of arguing, or sitting down and having a debate over tactics or strategy or who was wrong and who was right. At this moment, all he had time for was getting to the end of the obstacle course, and making sure the others did too.<br/><br/>When Mario put Prinny on his shoulders, Prophet watched with hope as the two scaled the rope wall. Once he was sure Mario wouldn't fall or drop the penguin, he took a few steps back, then sprinted toward the wall and leaped, his feet pushing him up several feet before he reached out to grab a rope and gripped like his life depended on it. Then he climbed his way to the top, flipped his legs over, and jumped down. Now there was a mud crawl. Awesome. He was looking forward to getting filthy today. Still, he should have expected it, as it was a staple of any good obstacle course. Backing up as far as he could, he pushed off the wall and ran full speed toward the mud.<br/><br/>Right before he got to it, he dove low and stretched his arms out, sliding as far as he could into the muck before bringing his elbows under his body and crawling the rest of the way. On the other side, he stood up and shook as much mud off himself as he could. Then he noticed the rope ladder. "Shit." Mario tried, thought about it, then gave up and said it was time to pass the Prinny off. That was fair enough. Rose had gone first, then Mario, now it was his turn.<br/><br/>"Give him here," he said as he walked over and bent town to pick the penguin up. He made the penguin as stable as he could in his grip, then he started up the ladder, having to be careful and take his time so they weren't thrown off. If he'd known the little, yet surprisingly heavy guy he was toting around was a living bomb, he'd have been even more careful. It wasn't necessarily slow going, but it was a lot slower than he'd have liked. Still, with careful, timed, and precise movements, he got to the end of the ladder and stepped onto the platform. A light sheen of sweat was starting to build on his forehead. Mario was right; the Prinny was heavier than he looked.<br/><br/><hr/><em>689 words: 2 XP<br/><span class="bbc_u">Level 2</span><br/><strong>[||||||||||]</strong>10/10<br/><strong>[||||||||||||||||||||]</strong>1/20</em><br/>
