Hm? A girl? What the hell is she doing out here in the middle of this blasted field? No, how is she even here? This area was protected… The boy held out a hand in the darkness, as though to cup something in his palm. Closing his eyes, he whispered a familiar incantation to the gathering gloom.
“Daru Ignus Ex!”
A shuddering orb of white fire blinked into existence, neatly filling the outstretched hand of the boy and pushing back the smoky haze. Yes, it’s a girl. But, HOW ?! He glanced around, checking for the horrors that inevitably lurked in the shadows. Nothing else for it, I’ve got to get over there. Just a few more yards, then I can call out to her. He paused as the girl whirled around to face him. What is THAT ? In the field seperating them, an impossibly large monster had appeared. “Who’s out there?” the boy yelled. “Hello? Is someone there?” the girl answered. Talking ceased to matter, then, as the creature smashed the back of the girl’s skull in with a single punch.
