Drop the walking stick
A game…
Is that what Zack just called their dire situation? Lanse was influencing Zack. But Tess was not getting out of whatever game that was until she had that fragment!
Another slap from the monster slapped her newfound strength out through her ear with blood. An annoying low static came from her right ear, and everything spun in circles. The pain in her neck meant her head was about to fall off.
Her eyes got wider, and panic ran over her entire body. But it wasn't from both massive hands moving towards her on both sides to splat her between like a sandwich. She realized she couldn't feel her lower right leg. The shadow closing around her thigh and squeezing it, was cutting off the blood flow. She began to wiggle her leg trying to pull it out of the tight space.
"Zaaaaack! Do it!" was all she got out.
