The Warped (2nd Party)

[Srgntcuddles]

As the behemoth romped about to try and get Constance off she had switched to attacking it to holding on for dear life. She had let her emotions get the better of her again, which got her into trouble, again. When Max had decided to climb on as well she barely noticed him speak to her to give her a knife. She only noticed him get tossed off, fearing for her life seeming to get in the way of anything else. When the behemoth stood up on it's hind legs to essentially crush her she closed her eyes tightly holding her breath preparing for the worst. She felt a sudden shift in the behemoth's movements, opening her eyes in time to crash to the ground and be flung sever meters away. She tumbled and rolled the whole way before finally stopping on her face. "Ow..." she groaned as she slowly sat up. "I'm...Alive...?" she mumbled after wards as she looked down at her paws in somewhat of a daze.

Macid watched as the beast stood up on its hind legs, preparing to try and crush Constance and Max. He covered his eyes and looked away, for he could not bear to see the inevitable. When he didn't hear a scream, he opened his eyes and saw that the behemoth was fighting with Moon, and Constance and Max we're thrown off to the side. "Constance!" He rushed over to where she was and tried to lift her up to carry her out of the way of the raging behemoth. He picked her up farther than he did with Max, but was not able to fully lift her, setting her back down and pleading with her. "Constance, please we have to let the others handle this. Please get up!"

After setting Constance down, Anon began to glow, as did the finger-guantlet pen on Macid's finger. Anon's golden color molded itself and formed a golden, bestial eye at the top of the front cover. The pages flew open, fluttering to the middle of the book. The finger-gauntlet didn't undergo as much of a change, merely a small ruby filled up one of the five empty slots that were on the back.

max felt the blade shift and slip as the behemoth shock him off, one of the small blades falling from his hand and coming so close to slicing him open he watched in slow motion and a few of the scales on his wrist were cut in half by the tip of the blade. he was thrown off and slamed into the ground, the peices of ramsey landing around him, some buryed halfway into the ground not far from where he landed. mex looked up after regaining his sences and went visibly pale as he looked at the looming behemoth on in mid air, falling towards him. he was able to roll out of the way in time, barely, before he realised. "wait, RAMSEY!!" he turned around, all but the two smaller sections of ramsey that hadn't been knocked loose were now under the behemoth. "i can't beleve i'm saying this but....please tell me that thing is getting back up......"

[Shinzuu Katame: Her Tolfy]

The behemoth did more than just get up. In fact, it was extremely enraged. It was almost as if a heat wave was surrounding the mountainous beast and it roared loudly, causing any ground within a meter from it to shake. Noticing Max being the closest target, the giant beast turned towards him and prepped once before charging full speed at him.

Mortis stopped to look over her work as she finished the drawing of the Ogre, however she snapped out of it when she remembered that the creature was going to come out of the book after it was done. With that thought, she pointed the book away from herself and in the direction of the behemoth, "Please kill it, get the behemoth before it kills anyone, please please please," she chanted as if it would actually have an effect on the book.

[Srgntcuddles]

When Constance was set down by Macid she looked up at him. "Macid? So I'm not dead....Unless you're dead too. Thanks for carrying me away...Unless you are dead, then sorry I guess." she rambled on beginning to look at the ground. She coughed suddenly, a bit of fur escaped from her mouth; the behemoth's fur. "Ew! Did I really bite that thing?!" she said trying to spit more of it out and rubbing her mouth to try and get it out. She soon noticed the behemoth charge at Max and frantically searched for Lych, which was nowhere to be found. "Oh no is it-..." she stopped to looked at the behemoth. Lodged in the behemoth's back was Lych, sticking half way out of it. "Dang it...Gotta get it back." she said standing up quickly. She took one step and quickly retracted it due to a sudden pain in her foot. "Ow!" she said as she hobbled over to a tree. Constance leaned her hand against the tree and looked at her foot, seeing nothing visibly wrong. "No...Did I sprain my ankle?! No...No, no no no! I can't be injured!" she thought to herself. Her left foot was slightly elevated off the ground as she leaned against the tree. She slowly pressed it back on the ground, again a searing pain shot through her body. She grunted to herself and looked up, tears welling up in her eyes. "Dang it...This can't be happening...I...Have to hide it. How? Play it off. Everything is cool. You can do this. It's just a sprain...Just say it's a little sore or something." she continued to think.

Macid dropped Anon with a yelp as it flew open to the middle of itself. He did not hear Constane's thank you nor did he see her hobble towards the tree. His gaze was solely focused on his book, watching it to see if it would do anything else. "Whats with this book? Is it suddenly possessed?" When the behemoth roared, Macid was snapped away from his book to see it charge towards Max with all its speed and strength.With the behemoth attack, his feelings for Constance, and now his book acting weird, Macid could no longer handle the ensuing chaos and fainted backwards onto the grass.

[serpington]

Max's life flashed before his eyes as the behemoth charged at him. that's when it hit him, all his wrongs were insignificant, all his hardships were nothing. suddenly a faint glimmer of light snapped him back to reality as Ramsey caught the light from his spot behind the behemoth. he was sticking halfway out of the ground gleaming in the sunlight. his mind cleared as he made up his mind, he lept out of the way, ensuring that it would turn to charge him again. he ran over and grabbed Ramsey before it could do anything to stop him and turned around. "you after me? i ain't got much to live for." he called with Ramsey resting over his shoulder ready to react when and if the behemoth made it's move.

The ogre had rushed over to the behemoth and started beating it with its club after Max had dodged. The behemoth merely growled and pushed the ogre aside with its head, but the ogre kept coming back. Like before, the locked pages of Mortis' book was glowing blue, but this time, it turned green after a while of the ogre beating at the giant beast.

[Goblin Cat 😸]

Mortis watched, fascinated. Once she realized that the Ogre would be a good distraction, she shouted to the others, "That would be a good distraction for us to leave!" She pointed at her Ogre. "C'mon let's go." She directed as she began to take off, only to trip over Macid. "Crap." She muttered. She looked around for his things, and gathered his book, placing it in his bag. "We need to get him up." She was oblivious at Constance's condition, as she had hardly seen anything that went on due to her having to draw.

[Srgntcuddles]

Constance took a deep breath and looked back to Macid seeing that he had fainted. "Oh great...It just keeps getting better." she muttered. When Mortis came over only to trip over Macid she looked at her seemingly unamused when she asked for help and said they needed to leave. "Sorry, but my weapon is stuck in that thing and I'm not leaving without it." she said trying to sound calm despite the pain she was in. With that said she walked awkwardly towards Max. "Max! I need your help to get Lych back. It's stuck in that thing's back." she continued, giving no regard to her injury.

[serpington]

max heard mortis' call for help and looked over seeing constance, noticing something odd about the way she walked. "stay back, I'll get it for you!" he called quickly grabbing all of his knives and running towards the two creatures. he jumped onto the behemoths back when it was distracted, grabbed her dagger and pulled it free before putting as much space between himself and the two. he ran over to constance and gave her the blade, "you alright?" he asked walking over and scooping up macid and grabbing his things.

[Goblin Cat 😸]

"Alright, if everything's good, let's go before my ogre wears off." she muttered, taking off, not looking back. The thought of the behemoth stomping their brains in made her want to stay as far away from that thing as she could. As she walked a little ahead of the others, she looked down to her book again and tried to open the pages that were flashing green. "I bet you won't be nice enough to open for me." she said to the book.

[Srgntcuddles]

Constance gladly listened to Max when he said to stay put. She watched him get her knife from the behemoth's back and took it when handed to her. She followed after them, tailing behind them as she walked awkwardly. Her teeth were clenched tightly from the pain as she tried to keep up with the others, thought her best efforts were for not.  "I can't believe I was so careless...I just...Lost control...This time I got hurt. What if someone else got hurt? I...Need to be more careful." she reprimanded herself in her head.
