"Keep up." I say.

"You're not explaining this very well." Varian whines.

"I'm not sure how to explain it." I say.

I halt to a stop. There's more fire. There's something out there. The forest is shaking.  The forest is worried. I can hear the trees screaming out. I run my hand over my face. No sudden movements. It's watching. It's hunting us.

"We're being hunted." I say.

"Hunted?!" Varian yelps.

"Shh. Quiet." I hit his head gently.

He draws back. I turn and see something jump out. I push Varian out of the way. I dodge the black mass. I slam my sword into its leg. It turns. I see it in full shape, A kind of human shaped monster. Flames ignited like spikes on it. It growls at us. 

"What is that?!" Varian yelps.

"Stay behind me kid." I say. 

It charges. I grab Varian and pull him out of the way. Anubis and Set charge. I call them back. That thing is flaming. If we get too close, it'll burn like Hell. It charges at us again. I turn and see a cliff, best to avoid that. I jump to the side with Varian who yelps again. The creature was fast and slams into us. Varian goes flying. I slam down with the creature on top of me. 

"Whoa, you are ugly." I say.

It roars in my face. Bad move. Bad move.

"Hector! Help!" Varian was dangling over the cliff's drop. 

I let out a breath. The creature slams his claw down. I grab it. I feel it burning my hand. A flaming tongue leaks out. I slam my sword into its mouth. The tongue flies off of it. It yelps. I kick it off and slam my sword into it. It hits a rock. I stand up and brush myself off.

"Hector!" Varian yells.
