Leaping lizards

The one in the green scaly dress, Miranda, she bowed her head and quickly went to a corner in the room. "...Dreadline..... please move forward quickly," I said, I have a bad feeling about this,

CLUNK

SHRINNNNNNNG

The sound of gates being opened could be heard, Sammie, that witch she's smiling now, this bad Dreadline isn't moving fast enough, damn it.

GKREEEEH

Something was screaming, something was screaming! "Dreadline! Hurry up!" I yelled, "I-I'm moving as fast as can Master!" he replied.

GKREEEEEEEEEEE

GKREEEEE

GRKEEEEEE

GRKREEEEEE

They're closer, they're definitely closer now! I'm starting to panic a bit, dammit! I don't have a way of defending myself! I wish I had a- "Ah..." I muttered, I- wow , just wow.

They're at the edge of the pool now.... four of them, the size of big ass cats, they're.... what did she call them again, lizard leopards, yep... yep...

They had a weird ass anatomy, well everything I've seen so far is weird, so I guess put this one on the tamer side of things....

They stood on four legs like a Leopard, it had spots like a leopard , but that's where the leopard part stopped.... it's tale was long and scaly like a lizard's, it had long sharp Claws like a lizard, it had a scaly back like a lizards and most frighteningly is its face.....

"A komodo dragon.....? ew! it's even dripping that nasty ass spit like it!" I shouted, seriously what's going on here? are these mutants? Eldritch beings? Why is everything here just plain weird? "What the f- ah, they're entering now! Dreadline move faster!" I panicked, throwing orders at Dreadline, "Master I can't move any faster! I'm swimming for two!" he yelled back, damn it! I asking too much from him, ".....Master might I suggest using the others...." He said, ".... others? oh... OH!" I yelled.

I almost forgot about the other tattoos! now lemme see here, the Ye-Red jackets might be useful, honestly.... they're the only ones that might be useful in this situation!

I close my eyes and try to picture them, slowly, one by one they emerge from my back, 3-4-5 "800? not that I'm complaining!" I exclaimed, the Red jackets hover over me, why aren't they doing anything else? " They're waiting for your orders Master!" Dreadline yelled, oh I guess they're simple minded like the Roach..... I'll need to feed them human....ish blood to see if they'll improve later.

I look over at the LLs, they're half way here now, panicking I point at the lizards and yell "GET THEM!" with that, the Red Jackets fly off.

The RJs swarmed the Lizard leopards, they sting, bite and claw at their eyes, the beasts, howl In pain, they try to claw at the Swarm, they get some but- "They can multiply!?" I shouted, It.... we'll this is a happy development, the lizards are just screaming in frustration at this point.

I turn to my spectators, I look at Sammie particularly, I want to give her the nastiest shit eating grin I could muster, it's smooth sailing from here, she meets my eye and... smiles?

This is bad.

SNAP!

This is bad!

SNAP!

THIS IS BAD!

At the SNAP of her fingers, 3 of the lizards leap 10m into the air from the water, what is this? This is BS now! how am I- woah! one of them flies too close to me, it's flying towards my face! "J-Jesus!" I screamed, It opened its jaws wide!

SWOOSH

SWOOSH

SWOOSH

Dreadline evades it's Attack! "Th-Thank you!" I stuttered, he dodges the remaining 2 and swims erratically around the pool, is he trying to confuse them? it seems to be working from their confused movements but it's also getting me a bit dizzy.

we pass the last one, it's still fighting off the RJs, I give a side glance before facing forward, we're almost the-

BOOM!

A mine explodes! blood and guts fill the air! Dreadline and I are sent flying! "Ah..." I muttered, one of the lizards jumped into a mine by accident, was it trying to cut us off? doesn't matter cuz we're going to crash.

Dreadline and I scream in unison! "Ah- I can just enter back!" Dreadline yelled before fusing back into my elbow.

"Traitor!" I yelled, it was futile, still couldn't he have shielded me with his body? I yell in my mind. Damn it! if I'm gonna crash at least lemme get some revenge while am at it!

I try to change my trajectory to land on Sammie, she looks startled, GOOD! I give her sinister smile, but before I could land on her, one of the girls, Miranda pushes her outta the way, and I land on Barney instead.

"Bugweh!?" he shouts something weird, the two of us tumble and roll for a bit before coming to a stop a few paces away from the pool.

We groan and nurse our aching body parts..... "Barney" "....yes?" " I hate you!" "Yep, hehe hehe! I hate me too! ow! ow! stop kicking me!" he bellowed.

"Good, that was a Marvelous show! You're a good entertainer!" Sammie said, I look at her with pained expression, God! I wanted to slap her! but I was afraid she'd just toy with me some more so I give a forced smile instead.

"Now.... let us get to the matter of hand..... why did you come here Fatewalker?" she said, Barney clears his throat and asks "The escapee we know you're hiding him here,"
