Eventually, the creature started to shift its body, slowly waking up. It slowly lifted its head and made a wide yawn, revealing its sharp viper like fangs. but there was something odd about the creature's yawn...its voiced sound incredibly feminine, squeaking like a girl that is just starting to wake up from a pleasent nap. She the opened her eyelids, whch slid vertically and revealed to have beautiful deep blue eyes. When she glanced over at the only sorce of light in the room, she started to regain her sight more and more, as she became less groggy. She then breathed through her nostrils and suddenly made a replusive face, instantly stood up and covered her tiny nose with her flipper like hands as she said in a high, lady0like voice, "Oh my GODS! What a horrible smell this place has!! And why is it so dark!? Surely whoever owns this place can afford some lighting, and a mop as well! All this DIRT is getting my feet FILTHY!" She continued to complain and wine for a few more minutes, judging the interior and criticizing about its lack of hygiene.

I was silent while she rambled on, too shocked to say anything. Finally, once I was over my initial shock, I interrupted her rant. "Y-you can.. talk..." I said quietly, still holding the torch -the only source of light- in my right hand and the sword in my left.

Suddenly the creature glanced back at the girl, where she realized that the only source of light was actually a torch. she then noticed the sword in her hand and said outloud, "Fla'uru..?" She suddenly came over, her face directly infront of Danilia's as she inquired, "Are YOU the one that touched Fla'uru...?"

I leaned away from her, frightened. "U..uhm.. if you mean the sword, then.. yes... I-I'm the one who touched it..."

The creature blinked, quirking her brow as she looked closely at the nervous girl. But suddenly, her gaze was averted when she noticed something small dangling just over her head. It was a tiny harmless spider that was hanging from a single thread of web.
after a moment of silence, the creature suddenly screamed in huge panic. She then ran out, fortunately her size was just small enough to fit through the corridor and out the front entrance as she suddenly starting tapping her feet uncontrollably like a frightened little girl as she squealed in utter disgust, "EWEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEW!!!" she screamed rapidly before finally shouting as loud as she could, "I HATE BUGS!!"

Hating spiders as well, I ran out and into the lobby. However, I didn't go outside where the creature was. After giving myself a moment to calm down, I went into the large doorway. "What are you..?" I asked her, still nervous but not quite so much after she freaked out about a little spider. Even I wasn't that bad.

Once the creature got over the initial creepiness, she let the shiver run through her body before finally replying, turning back to the girl, "What am I? uoi make me sound like some animal. I have a name, its Slidera...I am Tirbrin if you must know. Now what about YOU?" she said, her head nearing towards Danilia, "Who are you suppose to be? And how did you come across to finding that sword?"

"I..I'm Danilia..." I said. "And, I.. I just found it my accident. I was exploring the forest, and.. I intended to be out by nightfall, but.. I.. I got lost... And, when I found this place, I.. I thought I'd be safe here, at least until morning... I hoped that the Abysals wouldn't find me here..."

"The ABYSMALS!" Slidera looked shocked, "There still around!?"

I flinched, frightened when she shouted. "Y-yes..! Wait.. what do you mean 'still'?"

Slidera was about to explain until she heard giant, heavy footsteps come stomping up behind her up the steps. when she turned, her eyes widened with dread, "Oh Zob..."she muttered as she saw a giant, almost twice the size of her, bipedal theropod creature. It had massive curved horns on the sides of its massive head with huge powerful jaws full of razor sharp teeth. Its entire face was covered with spikes as well as his shoulders, thighs, and spinal colomn. Even the end of its thrashing tail was littered with thick spikes. Just on the tip of his fat nostrils was a small, but thick horn, and the eyes burned a ferocious blood red tinge. The monster roared, shaking the very temple's foundation as it charged up the rest of the steps, hardly slowly down. Slidera cursed under her breath as she quickly snatched up Danilia by her odd tail and dodged, by leaping off the side of the porch. once at a safe distance, she looked back up at the monster that was already following the, "Of all Abysmals to survive it had to have been a Barack!" soulknight18.deviantart.com/gallery/#/art/Barrok-Final-325855597?_sid=65a95b3c

I shrieked as I was suddenly pulled off the ground by Slidera's tail. I ended up dropping the torch, but I managed to keep hold of the sword. "Oh god, oh god, oooh god..." I said, starting to panic. I was going to die. Surely now I was going to die. There was no way we could fight against such a massive thing. Suddenly, I came up with a plan. Well, at least it was the start of a plan. "H..head into the forest..! I told her. "He'll be too big to go between the trees!"

Slidera wanted to argue, if the trees were too thick, then how did the barack get here, in this tiny clearing in the middle of the forest? But there wasnt time, so instead, she got down on her four legs and started a mad dash for the trees. She placed Danilia on her back, where she was able to grip on tightly to her veil as she kept running with great nimble speed.
However, not too far behind them was the Barack, tearing through the trees like a relentless machine. though the trees may have not been able to stop it, it certainly managed to slow him down. "Any more bright ideas?" Slidera said between pants.

"You mean OTHER than running and hiding?" I asked, holding on tight as I tried to keep myself from panicking too much. "That's about all I got..."

Slidera suddenly noticed a small lake on their approach. She saw the perfect opportunity and glanced back at Danilia ans said, "Hold your breath!" and suddenly leaped into the water, thankfully it was deep and murky, easily able to hide from Baracks sight as it finally made it towards the shore.

I managed to get a gasp of breath before we plunged into the water, but it was a bit of a struggle to hold it. I wasn't used to having to hold my breath, and it's more difficult to hold it when you're panicking. Luckily, we surfaced before I ran out of oxygen. I gasped for breath, grateful for the air that I could breath.

When Slidera, floating in the middle of the lake, glanced back at the shore, The Barack was standing just before the tide. In a fit of rage, it stomped its sturdy foot hard onto the ground, rippling the water and shaking the ground. It made a terrible roar then slowly turned back into the trees, toppling them over as he went.
Slidera sighed, "Well, this is NOT how I expected my wake up call to be..."

"Well, it's not exactly how I expected my night to go either..." I said. "I should be home by now, safe and sound. My parents are probably worried sick." I gasped. "Oh, god, my parents! My father's going to be so mad at me... I told him I wouldn't go into the forest."

"Why DID you then!?" Slidera said, continueing to swim leisurely toward the other side of the lake, far from where the Barack was.

"Because I'm curious." I answered her. "I.. I heard stories about a.. an old temple in the forest... I just wanted to see for myself if it was true, but.. I never thought all this would happen..."
