Theme Music is now mandatory

As the staircase rises further up, the vines become more frequent, eventually sporting a few bulbs and flowers here and there, with the natural light glowing ever brighter. At the very top step, the claustrophobic walls immediately cease, and give way to a wondrous place: A veritable jungle in the top of the pyramid!

While the staircase is in a small clearing, most everything beyond a few meters is completely impossible to see through; all it is is brush and moss. The top of the pyramid (from the inside) is visible, and appears to be some kind of gigantic skylight, allowing the sun's rays to filter through to this natural setting. Scuttling through the brush, a heap of Bug Pokemon are visible from the get-go, but disappear as soon as they spot an intruder.

A thin path can be discerned from the stairs, but it is incredibly thin, only a few inches wide. Going through the path, one would still be cutting through most of the brush.

Inei looks at the "structure" bewildered...this was new, and not what he expected. Vary as he was of such an odd thing, he scans the area for anything else before venturing close to the bulb to inspect it.

There's not much else to be had around here, save for a few Paras lurking at the edge the clearing in curiosity. The bulb itself is nice and smooth, doesn't appear to have a scratch on it. The spores it expels are gross, and it looks like a continuous Stun Spore attack.

Inei decides to grab a bottle of water, drinking it in one gulp (Enriched Water used) and sees if he can grab a sample of the bulb, storing it in the now empty bottle.

With a careful scoop, Inei is able to grab a small bit of bulb flesh in the bottle! A little blemish is left on the bulb's exterior... but no one will notice.

He then returns to where Yari excitedly flutters his wings, and sets out further in.

Inei moves a ways through the brush...

Eventually, the man and bee come upon a rectangular clearing littered with sand and dirt. On the right-hand side, a bunch of Crustle appear to be moving some sand around, making an anthill of sorts; on the other side, an identical anthill is being constructed by double the amount of Paras.

Inei observes the two groups stealthily. Crustle are fairly large, and as far as Inei knew, fairly dangerous. He would observe what happened next.

Inei and Yari take a knee (or thorax), and observe what can only be described as a Crustle/Paras war. The Crustle make a fortification out of their bodies in front of their anthill, while the Paras seem to have a kind of mushroom field on their side. Silence seems to drag on forever... until a storm of about 20 Paras charge at the wall of Crustle! Three Crustle counterattack, and a bunch of the Paras go flying back into the brush and their mushroom field. One Crustle, stormed by about eight Paras, begins to fall and stop moving. This is Bug-type chaos.

Inei sees the lopsided battle the singled out Crustle was facing, and as it dropped, he jumped up, covering a good portion of the distance to get within Throwing range. Hurling the Pokeball, he hopes that he is not too late.

It's a hit! The Crustle disappears into the ball, captured! (16/Hardy/25 HP/1 Injury)

The Paras scatter at the sound of the ball thumping the Crustle, and the remaining Crustle take advantage of that, smothering all the Paras with nasty body slams! Unfortunately, they land on the mushroom patch, and that ends up Paralyzing all of them!

The Crustle are immobile, and the Paras are underneath them. This ten-second war is over.
