[He's really not expecting more of these things to start multiplying from the ground. Zack lets out a grunt as he turns and tries to swing at the other creature only for it to leap away from him yet again. Tifa definitely has speed on him but they need a better plan.]

This wasn't my idea of gardening or clean up for the day!

[He clicks his tongue.]

Can we lure them away?

[Cactuars are jumpy stupid things but they do tend to like to play or tease too. So it might work... If these bear things are anything like the real deal.]

[starshower]

Mine neither.

[She was under the impression that gardening was supposed to be relaxing, even if it is just pulling weeds and cleaning it up!

Tifa looks around them, and her eyes land on the torn bag several feet away, with dead leaves and weeds spilling out of it.]

Maybe. Think we can use what's left to get them to move?

[Away from the church, preferably. They're free to stick these weeds back into the ground anywhere else.]

[activatingcombatmode]

Sounds like a good a plan as any.

[Zack makes the move by jogging quickly over to the bag of spilled weeds and rubbish. He hauls it up and taunts the creatures one more time.]

Hey! Is this what you're looking for, you little pests?!

[He's waving a stalk of weeds in his hand...!! But then he quickly starts for the path away from the church as they look at him curiously and wobble forward.]

Come on, time to go!
