Akan heard Ceri talking to Tau, and the next thing he knew she was bolting towards the creature. Akan felt his throat tense up as if to yell at her and call her stupid before Tau made the next move. Narrowing his eyes at the beastkin, he crouched down as the second set of flames blew past them. He looked at Tau and Lila, Lila seemed small and panicked and out of place. Akan sighed irritably before quickly following behind Ceri but stopping a few yards behind her.
Now out in the open he had the lizards full attention. Akan didnt notice quiet how large the creature was, but it was big enough that he felt slightly intimidated. He shouted at it and began to run towards the opposite direction of Ceri. He watched Ceri leave the creatures vision and he took his eyes off her She can handle herself. he told himself as he heard the gurgling sounds coming from the creature again.
Akan held his gaze to the creature as the flames started to spurt from its mouth, he quickly dove behind more rubble, the flames intensely singed his kimono and his skin felt too hot. The place he chose was probably not the safest, but it was better than taking the brunt of the fire face to face. After a few seconds of catching his breath, he pulled himself out to see the creature completely turned away from Ceri, its long body focused in his direction "HEy you fuckin ugly ass, come catch me!" Akan threw a large lot of rubble at the creature, hitting it square in the face.
A loud hissing sound and it suddenly gave chase. Akan began to run as fast and though the thickest sets of rubble, following a route, he hoped he could circle back after Ceri got the dumb stick. Though he just prayed that the fallen part of the city and the path he was running down stayed clear enough for him to run though without stopping.
Lila
She was frozen with fear as the creature bellowed, and even more dumbfounded as Ceri bolted towards the creature. if only i had my staff she pouted to herself, as Akan and Tau faught the creature, Akan suddenly did the same dumb thing as Ceri she wanted to scream at them and tell them how dumb they were being.
After a moment she stood up and brushed her knees off, she carefully peered around the rock to see the lizard chasing Akan and Tau trying his best to help. She caught a glint of the staff in the cave and gasped "My staff!! quick!" she shouted to Ceri, however this caused the lizard to halt in its chase with Akan, and turn around.
