Escaping the Third Zone's Bridge!

Stark watched in anticipation as the crimson ball flew through the air, his heart pounding in his chest. He knew that this was his last chance, his only hope of survival.

The ball seemed to hang in the air for an eternity before finally connecting with the platform.

As stated before, the crimson ball doesn't bounce at all, so the moment it hit the ground…

~DING~

[Target set, teleportation is safe!]

"GOT YOU!" Stark at this point was within range from the serpent's mouth, beginning to enter it.

And so…

~SLAM~

It closed its mouth on Stark.

For a moment, all the boy could see was darkness, and the laugher echoing from inside the serpent terrified him.

But…

~SNAP~

Instantly, faster than ever the giant snake could act, Stark teleported out of its mouth and materialized on the platform at the end of the bridge.
