"Good idea."
Ranalus will also cast Fly on himself. With a quick prayer to his patron, shadowy wisps swirl about him giving the suggestion of wings.
Enora just grins when she hears that Menas will go in first.
”I pity the bullette if it is alone but we should be ready if there are several! I will cast haste the moment I feel danger!“ Enora says with a smile towards Menas and Ranalus.

Watch there actually be no enemies. The real resource drain is a false map lol.
Menas jumps to the center of the room and readies himself for the coming creatures.
Menas has combat reflexes and grab if anything provokes an AoO before he gets a turn.
The party prepares itself and once ready Menas Red dashes to the center of the cavern. As he moves across the cavern, a dorsal fins appears, but the creature is still burrowed.

Menas prepares to be attacked by adopting a defensive posture.
Expecting more of a fight than she wants, Ansha incants a few arcane words. Her figure blurs, and suddenly there are four of her. The many Anshas then fly to a point roughly 20 feet up nearby.

Ranalus moves 70' (single move with Haste) and readies to use Shadow Conjuration to replicate Glitterdust on the bulette when it surfaces.
This will be a DC 20 Will save to disbelieve (and if it passes that it still has a 20% chance to be affected anyway). If it fails the initial save or the 20% chance comes up, it is another DC 20 Will save or be blinded.
Haven't ever used Shadow Conjuration before, I am sure it has a lot of uses. Summon Monster III as a standard action, or Spiked Pit, or Stinking Cloud. Happy to take recommendations. It's a domain spell that I'll usually be carrying.
Kalangkang - didn't see anything that would indicate you can cast Enlarge person as a standard, if I missed it let me know. Otherwise will go off at beginning of rnd 2.
Rolls:
DC 20 Will to Disbelieve:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27 20% Effects anyway, low effects:1d100 ⇒ 21
Kalangkang begins to cast a spell. Ansha does as well, going multiple, and then flies up. As Enora hastes everyone. Menas Red prepares for an attack; and so does Ranalus who readies his Shadow Conjuration. Suddenly, a Bulette bursts forth from below! Shadowy glitterdust showers down, but the bulette doesn't believe it and is focused on attacking Menas Red. It's savage bite misses the evasive monk.

Menas 5ft steps and attempts to grapple the huge creature. "Let's see how much of a challenge you really are." Swift action to enter kraken style

@Wembly - if you move you can't delay; you could ready
@Menas Red - help me out, usually you maintain the grapple on subsequent turns, do you have something that let's you roll to maintain on the same turn you grapple? Also, looks like your CMD to break is 38?
Rolls:
Break Grapple:1d20 + 18 ⇒ (2) + 18 = 20
Wembly and Whiskers fly up into the cavern. Suddenly, Menas Red grows to the size of an Ogre! Kalangkang and Impy fire away with magic missiles. Now enlarged Menas Red grabs hold of the bulette, showing incredible strength and even better technique. The beast struggles surprised by it's predicament. It tries to pull free, but can't break the monks grip. Another dorsal fin appears...
Yeah, yeah...I'm good with him grappling the bulette, just wasn't sure what allowed the check to maintain on the same round the grapple started...I think I found that it is Greater Grapple that does that.

That really is an astoundingly high CMB for 9th level. Cleverly done.
Ranalus will move and ready to cast Murderous Command on the second bulette when it appears, using the rod of Bouncing Spell so that if it saves the spell is redirected to the first one. DC 17 Will save.

Yeah, greater grapple as a move and rapid grapple as a swift. Grappling is really all the PC can do though, which is great for a majority of fights, but some enemies, mostly swarms means I cant do a whole lot. Dont worry about being pinned though, Menas only pins magic users. My CMD to escape is 47.
Spotting the second dorsal fin, the enchantress flies away from the overgrown moles, gaining altitude as she goes.
Won't be able to move my map icon or change my altitude note til later tonight, but Ansha is double-moving to the east, avoiding the grappled bulette and going to +30' altitude.

If I'm reading your initiative order correctly, I believe I'm supposed to post my 3rd round actions; more used to the bold named people being the ones to act, but just ignore me if it's not actually my turn.
Menas, seeing the second dorsal fin breach the land, restrains his actions against the current bulette for now, readying himself for the second one.
Ranalus readies a spell, as Ansha flies over and up. The second bulette surfaces and Ranalus casts his spell. It flies over and attacks its mate, landing a big bite.
Menas Red continues to squeeze away on the first bulette, eventually it slumps over and then he grabs the other bulette.

Wembly calls down.
Do you have it, Menas? Or should we come in and do anything? I don't want to take your fun away. I mean, if you call that fun. I like darts and checkers, but wrestling with a bulette was never on my 'fun' list. But I guess if you are good at something, you might as well have fun, right?
Wembly delays unless Menas responds requesting aid

Menas tightens his grip on the second bulette, "The foolish decline aid when lives are on the line. You never know when something may go wrong."

As the rest of the Pathfinders watch on as an enlarged Menas Red wrestles with the second bulette. It fights desperately to kill its restrainer. It's attacks are in vain, as it struggles against the vise-like grip.

Wembly and Whiskers charge in, while Wembly's spear is off the mark, Whiskers bite and one claw land against the bulette. Kalangkang fires some magic missiles that hit. Ansha and Ranalus continue to stand at the ready.

I'm traveling right now, so I don't have time for a long post
As Enora looks on, Menas Red continues to give the bulette the business. The bulette tries desperately to fight back, but its being sapped of its energy and the efforts are feeble at best.

Menas gives one more round of brutal stretching, trying to make the bulette surrender.
