EEK! A week?! Sorry gang, I have not been good with this.
I’m improvising with the snake, lol.’
XD same.
Rowen
Before Rowen knew what was happening, he was suddenly lifted into the air then placed several feet away from the fight. “What the-”
And then Hugo ran towards the snake, sword in hand, shouting, “Friend power!”
Rowen shook his head, turning back towards the fight. “Emeline, get out of here.”
“What? I’m not-”“Go now.”
Emeline let out an exasperated sigh, then turned and sprinted down the corridor. Rowen watched her for a moment, then let out a breath he had been holding. He whirled round and grinned. “This’ll be fun.” He noticed then that Barnes seemed to be stuck, and one glance at the snake told him that somehow, through it’s magical powers, it was freezing her.
“Rowen, we’ll distract the snake while Tenz gets ready to strike.” He heard Percival say.
Rowen frowned, “Who gave you the power to tell me what to do?”
Percival cursed under his breath, and as he joined Hugo he yelled, “Fine, narr, why don’t you run away like Emeline?”Rowen grit his teeth and charged towards the beast.
Percival crept along the wall, then slashed at the side of the snake and stabbed into it. The snake let out a mighty hiss, but didn’t release Barnes. Instead, it shot out another wave of scales.
"No! Monkeys should have pets, all monkeys should have pets!"

Barnes
Percival and Rowan’s voices passed Barnes. She blinked, unable to comprehend what they were saying, eyelids drooping.
The snake began to hiss softly, swaying back and forth. Its scales glittered, fluttering and shifting as it moved. Its eyes clouded over, then turned into a familiar friendly violet blue.
“H-Hello…” The voice was a gentle man’s tone, with an undercurrent of whispers. “Hello, Lucille…”
“What?” Barnes barely restrained the break in her voice. The words penetrated her mind.
“Little girl… Stay strong in the face of these horrible children. I know they frighten you. I know you flinch under their touch.”
“No…”
“Listen to me. Do as I say.”
The voice slithered around her, and her mind began to turn in circles. Barnes could only struggle against the mindlessness for so long. She knew it was hypnotizing her, but that knowledge, for whatever reason, only urged her to give in quicker.
“Tenz… take my knife…” She threw a spare blade to the floor near him, metal clashing against the stone, and stumbled to her knees. Her eyes turned into slits.
Hugo
Hugo glanced up, just as Barnes whipped herself back up to her feet. Her body lost its stiffness, so that her arms swung loosely at her sides.
Hugo backed away. “Uh, guys… Don’t look into the snake’s eyes…”
Barnes grunted. Her shoulders had rolled back, like coils about to spring, and she turned on Tenz with a broiling force. She cocked her head, mask twisted, and pinned the young man to the wall by his neck.
