[EVENT] Beedrill Swarm

Summary: Liquid has a moment of pure fail and sets off a swarm of Beedrill
Rating: PG
Log:
[Traveling along Route 30 was relatively calm; the weather was hot as balls and the sun was beating down on Liquid's back like a solar sledgehammer, but he'd dealt with worse. If he'd been by himself, he could have estimated perhaps a few more days until he made it to Violet City, so long as he kept up a decent pace. With Otacon coming with him, though, he had to go slower and take far more breaks than he normally would have. The skinny nerd obviously wasn't used to long marches in excessive heat.
There was a large tree rising up some twenty feet off of the route, and Liquid had called a break underneath it. If he had to keep stopping, he might as well stop somewhere that he'll be able to get some shade, at least. And considering the height of the tree, if he got up into the top branches, he could have a good vantage point to judge the distance that they had left to travel until they reached town.]
Wait here, I'm going to climb up and take a look around.
[There might be a nice breeze up there, too, to take the edge off of the heat.]
[Huan paced at the base of the trunk as Liquid climbed, looking a little nervous.]
[He got near to the top when something unusual caught his eye; something yellowish blending in with the leaves and the bark of the tree, hanging amongst the branches. Some kind of Pokemon, maybe? Liquid edged out along one of the branches, trying to get a closer look to see what they were--
Snap.
The branch broke underneath his weight, sending Liquid tumbling down, hitting what seemed like every damn branch and twig on the way down. He landed with a bone-jarring thud at the bottom, the wind knocked out of him for several moments. That must've been a thirty foot fall or so.]
Ggnh--
[There was a noise from the branches above, something that sounded a little like a really buzzing cicada song. Out of the tree fell those yellowish things he'd seen before, suspended on gossamer threads. They didn't look particularly pleased, and goddamn were there a lot of them.]
[Liquid sat up just in time to see their backs split open, and a whole fuckton of somethings started crawling their ways out.]
Otacon.
[He stood, ignoring the cuts he'd gotten from his fall and his aching back.]
[Those somethings looked like three-foot long bees with very large stingers.]
Run.
((This is a mod-approved community-wide event! Liquid's set off a swarm of Beedrill that will attack anyone they come across and will follow them until they go into a building, cave, or town. The Beedrill will not follow you into town, but will wait outside. The swarm will occur all along routes 30 and 31 for 48 hours. The Beedrill will be uncatchable until they've calmed down. Have fun, guys!))
