Escorting Like a Boss!
How does one convince a scaredy-shroom to follow you? Threats? Treats? In this case, the answer was doing nothing at all.
The scene looked extremely ridiculous. Josh was walking in front, and a few meters behind was a trembling giant shroom that was stalking him very poorly. Whenever Josh turned around, it would back off in fear hiding behind a scrawny tree.
Yet, it kept following him, not that Josh knew where to go. It was the lost leading the coward. Well, at least it didn't seem like it would fight of its own volition. They kept going until the world began rippling once more, but it remained the dead-looking one.
The ripple caused a dozen of the evil mushrooms to appear in a circle. They were only a few paces away from the friendly one. They began screaming loudly at it before charging, maw open first. The poor cowardly shroom was frozen in place in fear, expecting to die.
