I have to go, I’m sorry. I’ll be back in a bit to reply.

Carrie

I tried to see through the smoke, looking in all directions for the kitten.

“Fire Face!” I called out a bit harshly, as I then remembered, “He eats carrots. I swear he’ll go after one, even if it’s a million miles away.”

@rae

Geez. Headache attacks aren’t fun.

Carrie

“Fair enough.” I said.

I had to think for a moment.

“He likes to hide in boxes and cabinets.” I said, trying to think of where he could be.  “He’ll also come to me if I yell ‘danger’, but then he usually spits more fire.”

@rae

Sorry if my posts sound weird, I’m a bit distracted.

Zahlin

“I’m fine.” Zahlin muttered, “Thanks.”

Woah. The Sword said sarcastically, Did you just say ‘thanks’?

Zahlin slammed the Sword back into its sheath harder than usual. It fell silent.

“I haven’t seen anyone.” He said, “You?”

@rae

Carrie

“Yeah!” I said. “I can carry the cat, he could probably fit in my pocket, even.”

I only had to hope he wouldn’t spew fire everywhere again.

Zahlin

Zahlin finished slicing his feet free as the creature – Jep,  she had called herself – was distracted by Ellis.

Zahlin stabbed at her from behind, but she evaded his attack. He gripped her arm, swinging her around and slamming her into the wall. At the same time he brought his Sword down across the back of her shoulder.

@rae

Are our characters allowed to wound Jep?

Carrie

“Hmm.” I said as if I were thinking, though I really had my mind set. “I can go without a hand, I have another one.” I didn’t really mean what I said, but I almost wanted it to catch him off guard so I could keep going.

Carrie

Stay here?

I had to go help track down Fire Face. It felt wrong not to since it was my fault.

“I’m going to help you.” I called out, standing a bit shakily.

I know I only had one hand, but this whole fire wouldn’t have started had I kept a closer watch on the little creature.

I went to go and follow after Tren, then saying to myself…[Read more]

@jonas

LOL

Carrie

“He breathes fire, he does it at random.” I said quickly then added in a panick, “He does it unintentionally, he doesn’t know any better yet… and he’s still in there.”

Carrie

“I-” I raised my not-burnt  hand to begin explaining, but then hesitated.

I have to say it…. Fire Face is still running around in there. 

He could start another round at any moment.

“Um.” I said, my heart began to race a bit.

“My cat… kind of… um…”

Carrie

Some of the anxiety returned but I didn’t dare show it.

“I don’t know.” I responded. “He ran away.”

I took a deep breath. “Um. So, the fire…” I trailed off. Trying to figure out the right words to explain my pet. I had to face the fact – there were no right words.

Zahlin

Zahlin dodged out of the way of the creature. What was this thing? He lashed out at it with his Sword. Whatever it was, Zahlin was going to make sure it didn’t survive this encounter.

@rae

Carrie
“I’m Carrie.” I said, attempting to smile. I was entirely greatful that I was safe, but I hardly ever smiled about anything.
The garden was so beautiful, it seemed the perfect place to escape from chaos. I was wrong to assume the water wouldn’t help, it soothed the pain immensely.
“I could never say thank you enough for getting me out…[Read more]

Oh dear Fracture you’re in trouble now 😅

Zahlin

Zahlin snarled and sliced his legs free. He rose to his feet, eyeing the creature. He kept his Sword at the ready, prepared to ward off anything this creature might try.
