She had seen no one around here for days. It was empty, and bleak, and… cold. Even with the rays of the sun to shine down upon them.
Ikrina flew over the First War Ruins, trying to get through them as fast as possible. Fying was much faster than walking, and she didn’t want to stay for longer than necessary. These ruins creeped her out.
This place is terrible. I hope I get to Oron soon.
A few hundred yards away, she saw a trio. It looked as if they were searching. Ikrina turned her head and shrieked, veering slightly off her course to follow them. It pleased her to see new people, especially in such a dark place as this. But what are you doing here?
They walked for a while, before a few hundred yards away she saw a couple surrounded by eight monsters. The trio was on a course for them, but Ikrina found a crumbling wall to perch upon. She was not one for fighting or hostilities, and it seemed like this trio could handle it. Ikrina also had not had a dose of her daily kalicite, and that made her feel weak and incapable. She hated how dependent she had become, but it was nearly impossible to stop.
So, she watched, and waited. It was not a show to her, just that she was afraid to help. The monsters were large in size and stature – she was not sure if she could handle them. Then again, if I join the others, I would not be fighting alone. And how desperately she wanted to meet these people, to know more other than those of the Sands.
Or… maybe she would rather not.
One man of the trio acted. The monsters seemed not to notice him at all, then, suddenly, he was there, sliding his blade across the throat of one of the smaller ones (Ikrina did not know their names; simply that there were three monsters with mouths and tongues across their bodies, and five more huge lizards with horns). He quickly killed one of the bigger ones as well, emerging from under its body red in form. Ikrina was startled; she jumped from her perch, screeching. Who were these people? The man was laughing! He was enjoying this slaughter… What is happening? What had she gotten herself into now?
The other two that came with him began to attack as well. The girl of the couple who she assumed they had been sent to rescue trembled, hanging onto the man. Her father maybe? Then, a horned lizard approached them, and she screamed. She tried to run – but another reptile blocked her path. The others were enraptured in their fighting; Ika wasn’t sure if they had noticed. But she did. I can’t just let her get killed!
She swooped down quickly – not as fast as she would have like, but with enough proficiency to distract the lizard. It roared, swiping its tail at her, spikes narrowly missing her right wing. Ikrina called out again. A vine snaked along the ground, before wrapping around the tail of the lizard. It tried to move it, but was limited due to the restraint. Ikrina acted quickly, coming down and attacking its eyes with her talons. The monster shook its head, trying to throw her off. It roared again, shocking her into changing form.
She landed on her side a few feet from the lizard, as she lost her balance from shifting. But maybe the teeth and claws of her new self would help her more. Ikrina noticed that the girl was running back to her father, but she tripped. She tried to run for her, but another lizard blocked her path.
Ikrina stood up and her hackles rose; she appeared larger than she actually was, but the monsters still towered over her by at least half a foot. There were now two with their sights honed on her. Her eyes shifted as she gazed upon her situation, but fear began to creep into her mind again. Before, she had acted purely on instinct – now that she’d had a chance to breathe, she actually realized what she was doing. But she could not stop now. She focused on more vines; they twisted around the first monster to constrain it, one extremely thick one wrapping around its neck tightly. It was losing air, and had been blinded by her.
Ikrina acted, running and jumping for the underside of its throat, teeth bared.
