[i]When the beast turned its head it gave Lyn the opportunity to make a move. She swiftly pulls out her knife again and attempts to stab the monster in the temple.[/i]
"Die, foul beast."

-
The beast quickly turned and smacked her hand with his claws, sending the knife flying away and resulting in blood to flow from Lyn's hand. It began to swing its claws at her in a wild frenzy, like a drunken tornado.
-
[i]Lyn deflects the attacks directed at her bare skin while letting some strikes hit her armor and cloth that are unaffected by the strikes.[/i]
-
The beast suddenly changed tactics and sent its claws forward in a massive lunge towards her skull, their bloodied texture shimmering in the dimly lit room.
-
[i]Lyn lifts up her sword and manages to only get a cut on her left cheek. She rams her shoulder into the beasts' gut before swiftly slashing at its neck.[/i]
-
Blood spewed from the creature as hot liquid coated Lyn, making her skin burn slightly. It reeled back from the attack to be surprised by Alex who quickly brought his sword down on its arm, but the beast brought its arms up to block the attack.
-
[i]Lyn chops at the neck with her sword as hard as she can with both hands.[/i]
-
The blade dug half way through, which made the beast lose its duel with Alex. Releasing its blades, alex quickly took the opportunity to bring his blade around and swing in an arc, finishing the job and decapitating the beasts head which flew off its neck like a basket ball and rolled across the ground. It began to wander aimlessly around the room and banged into the wall, its arms impaling it's black liquid coated rock. "That's....probably one of the most disgusting fights...I've ever had to fight..." alex said with baited breath.
-
[i]Lyn sheathes her sword and takes a step before staggering and collapsing to the floor.[/i]
-
"Whoa!" Alex yelled as he quickly caught Lyn. "You okay Ripley?" He asked her with care. [spoiler]Ripley=main character from Alien[/spoiler]
-
[i] The color in Lyn's eyes fade a little and she looks extremely tired.[/i] "Wha-Why am I so tired?"
-
"Well fighting a crazy ass cannibal cult probably had something to do with it." Alex said with smile. "C'mon let's-" Suddenly the room shook. As alex turned he saw that where the king had impaled the dark black liquid began to spew out. Suddenly, a rock fell from the opposite side of the room and the liquid began to flood it and fill up the floor. "Oh shit we have to move now!"
-
[i]Lyn tries to move, but is far too weak.[/i] "I-I can't move!"

Edited by Inflatablepants: 2/25/2017 7:28:00 PM"What do you mean you can't...?!" Alex looked at the liquid that was filling the room. He dismissed his question and grabbed Lyn, tossing her over his shoulders and drew his blade which ignited with the electric charge. "Whatever! We're getting out of here!"
-
[i]Lyn tries to help get Alex get her on his back.[/i] "P-Please, lets get out of here."
-
"Ya I got that much!" Alex confirmed as he stood up with her on his back. "Okay, let's run!" He said as he ran towards the door, bashing it open. The black liquid flowed past Alex's feet as he made his way out. The blade illuminated the path, and he began to Sprint up the mineshaft. More of the liquid burst from the walls as they ran by, coating them in the dark colour of it.
-
[i]She remains on his back, clinging on the best she can.[/i] "Faster! Come on, you can do it!"
-
"Ya ya I got it!" Alex yelled as he continued to sprint, the sweat on his face actually washing off the blood from the fight. The liquid continued to burst and Lyn saw that the entire mineshaft was filling up behind them....
-
[i]Lyn had too little energy to show much emotion, but she was scared of the liquid.[/i] "Alex..."
-
"I'm going okay?!" He yelled. He continued to push on, tired. He stumbled and tripped, but he kept Lyn on his back. "Shit!"
-
[i]Lyn grunts when he trips and sighs.[/i] "Maybe you should leave me."
-
"Ya right!" He said, almost as if he was insulted. "We're getting out of here! Both of us!" He stood back up, the liquid pooling at his feet as he began to dash once more. There was light up ahead, the exit of the mineshaft. Alex sprinted up the passage and jumped out of the entrance, collapsing outside with Lyn falling beside him.
-
[i]Lyn lies there, gasping for breath because she had been holding it out of fright.[/i] "That....was....AWESOME! When is round two?!" [i]She giggles and looks over at Alex with a large smile.[/i]
-
"You know I was hoping it would've been a giant boulder rather then a shit ton of cannibal evil liquid." He responded with baited breath. He looked behind him and tilted his head to see that the entire village was standing there, looking at the scene. The dark liquid had filled up till the edge of the mine shaft, making entrance impossible.
-
[i]Lyn sits up and looks around.[/i] "Well, I guess we won't be getting any diamonds."
-
"No...no won't." Alex said as he stood up. He offered his hand to Lyn to help her up, as the village stood and looked at the two, and the mine. The elderly woman stepped forward, her hands to her face as tears streamed down her old cheeks.
