Deciding it was relatively weak enough to restrain it, Liz concentrated the light magic in her hand to make it solid, before changing it's shape. She tossed the ball out and it floated to the air space over the middle of the thing, before forming into a net and completely surrounding the shadow. Liz sank to her knees, looking at her shoulder as if trying to heal it with a glare.

I stared as the shadow creature sunk under the net and slid back to its shadows on retreat. I ran over to Liz and inspected her shoulder. "You okay", I asked.  

[neodrac54]

"Y-yeah.... I'll be fine." Liz shook her head, somewhat shocked at how strong the thing was. "That thing pretty much threw me up into the air.... It wasn't just strong, it was relatively smart too... It knew to try and separate us..."

I sat on the ground watching this horror sink into the shadows. "Are you both ok?" I asked mostly worried about Liz but also about Yoko.  

[gandygirl]

I nodded and looked around, now feeling anxious. "Hmm...yah, it was smart. You think its been following us?", I asked Liz. Then I nodded to Angel to say that I was okay.  

[neodrac54]

"Yeah Angel, I'm fine." Liz grinned, before turning serious again. "As for that.... thing. I've never seen one around here before...... It worries me to think that someone would purposely send a thing like that out. It wasn't natural..."  

[gandygirl]

I nodded and layed on my back on again. "Yay, we're alive!", I said trying to make Angel laugh.  

[angel5159]

"Hehe" I sat there and thought. Where could that have come from? "Hey Yoko do you think Raurick might have sent that? I don't know though." Angel was starting to get scared. Was Raurick a bad idea to bring with us?  

[gandygirl]

"I don't know Angel. I wouldn't think he would do that. Would he?", I was a little confused and then remembered something else. "Maybe it was following him?"  

[angel5159]

"I hope there is nothing else following him." Shivering I sat down. It got colder out since that thing came by.  

[gandygirl]

I take off my jacket and wrap it around Angel's body. "You need it more than I do."  

[angel5159]

"Thank you," I went to go get a drink from the river. "Want to come to the river with me Yoko?" I said starting to walk.  

[gandygirl]

I shrugged and stood up, walking along with Angel.

As we neared the river I slowed down and looked at Yoko. "Yoko a while back you siad you might be able to teach me magic. After seeing that thing and being able to do nothing about made me want to learnit more. Next time we get attacked I don't want to be the whimpering baby again." I sat there by the river and looked at my reflection. Wow I don't even look tough. Maybe I should just leave it be and be the baby...
