It turned its head, its legs ending in goat like hooves, a long tongue flicking out between its fangs. @AmazingGoob @turtle @turtle @Blessing of Potency As the screech rings through the cabin, Jarias swears and dashes out into the main hallway of the car and starts running to the front. This was not a good situation. If they stopped the train and we fought in the passing fields, the beast would have an advantage from it's flight. If we fought it in one of the cars, there would be no room to fight it- though that might apply to both of them. The roof would be the worst of both worlds, no way that's happening. Now, if he... Wait. He didn't have to do this alone. He skidded to a halt, and turned around. He didn't have the time to go to every door. And so he yelled, "MONSTER!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Sorana she/her Posted October 2, 2020 Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 Quote According to Po, the train is empty apart from a skeleton crew. I kind of got that wrong in my initial post. Zoe grabbed her handbag and rushed after them. Her knuckles turned white when she gripped it too hard, her heart beating quickly. And here she was on a moving train that was chased by a monster. A man wearing the uniform of the staff joined them his face pale, probably as pale as her own. She joined Ayra and Jarias, peeked outside. "Can we distract it?" she asked, watched as the chimera flew closer, in a sweep above them. It screeched again, as if enjoying the hunt, its eyes never leaving the three of them. How were they even supposed to fight it, to do something while it was flying. Eyes wide she pressed her back against the doorframe while the creature screamed again and then spiraled downwards towards them, aiming to land on the roof and to attack. @AmazingGoob @turtle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Sorana she/her Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Quote Sorry, was a busy weekend. Zoe clung to her bag, held it tightly to her body and tried to think of a good way to solve the situation. Not that she really had a clue - but, she whirled around and pushed past the man back inside, while he shot a grateful look towards Jarias. "There aren't many on the train. It's only you, me and two others." he explained hastily. "We could slow the train down-" he stopped, ducked a little when the chimera moved its wings closer to its body. "Or call for help, a carriage, leave the train, but take us with you." he added hastily, speaking so quickly his words blurred together. Meanwhile Zoe grabbed something that looked a little like a metal bar. She had no idea how it was called, but she'd seen them before, on other trains. Supposedly these things were used to turn a switch should some electronics fail. Feeling better with at least something in her hand she returned outside just in time to watch the chimera screech again and then dive down, talons outstreched, maw open to what resembled to be an awful grin. If it weren't for the long, sharp teeth visible inside. Its talons were aiming for Jarias, while it already started to move its tail in order to bring the sharp end down on Ayra. @eltruT @AmazingGoob 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He immediately falls into stance, his sword deflecting the scorpion tail. With the stinger to his side, he spins and jabs the point of the blade into the thing's tail. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoe ducked when the chimera attacked them directly, glad that Jarias took over. Gone was the nervous boy, leaving a calm fighter in his place. She had trouble to phrase her relief at the fact that he knew what he did, that he had spent his time at the camp with something else than she had. The monster flinched back in pain when his blade left a deep gash in its tail and she gripped her bar tightly. Hesitantly she watched the fight, tried to find an opening, a good way for her to help, to use her improvised weapon. The chimera seemed to ignore her completely, instead it focused on Jarias. There wasn't a lot of room outside, good for them maybe as it hindered the beasts movements, although she couldn't suppress the feeling that she was trapped, that she had no way to escape. The small, mean eyes of the thing followed Jarias for a heartbeat before it struck again, fangs gleaming when it jumped forward to throw him to ground and bite his head off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
