*RUN*

Those were the only words that l muttered up to say to him as the monster swang it's tail at his direction.Before he could even register what am saying to him, it was too late but should l say luckily or stupidly he got sandwiched between two meaty guys.

L faced palmed myself and held back my laughter especially his face when he was throwed between them.l giggled like a maniac while l covered my mouth.That alone made the dead threatening situation into a comedy show for me.The guy in the front was slashed with the monster's tail but it wasn't deep enough to cut through so it might have got Kam's side leaving small scratches here and there while the guy behind him was immediately pierced by something sharp.lt was still unclear but my guesses was it was not long enough to pass through him to come at Kam but it surely caused him immediate death maybe due to the blood dripping on the ground.lf that wasn't luck ,then what was it?

L still saw him trying to get up as he tried to push the meaty man out the way.The beast was also preparing itself for the next attack.Kam's gun was laying on the other side of the monster where desks were stuck together with packs of stones beside them.l was sure he will be at death's door this time if things continued this way.l looked to my side there was no one was at sight just the wind minding it's own business and then l looked to the other to find a white haired boy with an injured leg and by his side two girls one was supporting him and the other just stood there shivering.l just swallowed my anger right there.lt was kind of frustrating but l had to step in or l would loose my sleeping partner and more importantly good food and health.l took a couple of heavy breaths and launched myself into the show.

The monster's tail swaying at me as l dodged it.lt still squealed or screamed at me whatever that is,it still pierced my hearing and sent shivers down my spine.l was sweating like crazy.l was still a scaredy a cat and even if l don't look like that in the outside l still hated every bit of this.l may love red but l love my life more.lt's what they call self love.

L reach Kam's side before the monster caught up to me.

"What are doing!?"He shouts as he struggles to remove the guy.

"L don't even know!"l just squel while my heart is beating ten times faster.He looks at me with the stupidest reaction on his face like 'what the fuck am saying.'l just let out a heavy breath l didn't even know l was holding and looked at the freakishly ugly monster before me while regretting my life choices.

The monster looks angrily at us. l see it open its mouth and fire slowly forming.Their's a sudden grip in my heart as l immediately counter attack with the flaming fire launched towards me.l feel like mostly crying at point or something as l play tug of war with the monster inshort it's fire and ice the biggest enemies of all time.Neither side submitting and l know if l slip up,we are tossed meat for this creature.lt takes a lot out of me as l feel my magic come to my palms.My veins stretch out making me feel the pain even more.Finally the other side reaches it limit but before it could recharge again l miraculously jump over and reach out for the gun while avoiding its tail and mouth.lt's mouth now pointed me as it wants to launch it fire. l also quick release the trigger in its big stinky mouth and blow its head off.Blood,guts, everything all over.lt's a sight.

L just crumble on that floor.My legs given out as l stare at it's monstrous body.A few blood and guts came over me and covered me a little bit but apart from that am luckily alive and breathing.l pull up my hair from my face as l breath heavily and look at Kam who was now free and looking at me too.Only our eyes spoke at that moment.l also felt those piercing gazes from my side but l ignored it and looked straight at what's infront of me.The here and now.
