Turn 9Turn introThe team has split! What with three pipes being found, everybody crammed for their favorite color, apparently. Or some other deciding factor. Nevertheless, the first through each pipe has been appointed team leader. What will await them?

Team resultsTaric: Jump in the green pipe and wait for everyone else.You appoint yourself the leader of this Green Pipe Expedition. First of all, you hit the Save Block from the bottom. A heart comes down and sprinkles healing magic around you. You feel better. After that, you head down the green pipe, pop out on the other side... and find no one there waiting for you. No one else comes. You guess that you have to lead the team all on your own.
On the other side, you find a block with a blinking question mark suspended in the air. To the west, the forest opens up into a pathway leading who knows where.
Team outroTaric is obviously now the team leader.

Team resultsOchita: Jump in the pink pipe after red.You jump into the pipe after Red has already entered, for fear of entering at similar times clogging the pipes. How scary! You decide to skip the Save Point entirely. Don't want to fall behind or anything. You find yourself paradoxically on the other side of the pipe before Red even gets through. You're pretty sure you already saw someone else enter the pipe quickly before you. Nevertheless, being the first through, you appoint yourself team leader.
You find yourself in a small grove, surrounded on all but two sides: east and north. On both sides, there is a wall instead of more dense, impassable forest. In each wall is a door. The north door is red and locked, but the east door is brown and doesn't have a lock.
Red: Save point. Pink pipe. Make it happen.Thinking ahead and not noticing Ochita, you appoint yourself Leader of the Pink Pipe, believing no one would possibly join you. You're gonna have to take this adventure on its own. But first you smash your head against a glowy box. You feel healed afterwards, but
boy, what a dumb way to heal yourself. You spend a moment imagining the original Human that invented the (highly expensive to produce) Save Point. What did he say? "WITH THIS CONCUSSION, I BRING FORTH MEDICINE"? You decide there are more important things right now.
You hop into the pink pipe, healed up and ready for adventure. On the other side, Ochita is waiting for you. Guess you're not the leader any more.
Team outroOchita is now the team leader.

Team resultsBradley: Hit the save block and follow the blue pipe downYou are just about to hit the save block when--
Oomph: Hit the save block and follow the blue pipe downAWWRIGHT, NOW THIS PARTY IS STARTED. You hit the blue save block and suddenly feel more STRONG due to the power of the healing heart. You're completely healed, and don't even notice yourself nearly jump straight through Mr. Oakes. You jump straight down the blue pipe and pop out the other side.
In the middle of the room, several feet above your head, is a glowing orb. It is currently
purple colored. You have no idea what this means. To the west and north are more pathways.
Either way, you feel it appropriate to be the Blue Pipe Team Leader.
Bradley: Open eyesWhat-- oh, yes. Didn't wanna get all in someone's face, so you hid. You hit the save block and are fully restored. You don't need to force your way down a pipe due to being a boo, so you just fly down. If only you were intangible, though.
You find Oomph already in the room. You
vaguely sense some sort of force eminating out of the purple orb up above.
Fuzz: Follow the Blue PipersYes, that name is a threat. You hit the save block -- even though you're not too hurt, not out of MP that you don't have, and probably going to fall behind, it's good to be safe. After watching both of the others go through, you push down on the top of the blue pipe and force your way through. It spits you out where Bradley and Oomph are looking upwards toward some kind of orb.
Team outroOomph is now the team leader.
