Two days later, Babbit began to set up camp for herself, as she was still in the wilderness. The day was beginning to get dark, so she had decided that this was far enough for today. She set up a fire and began roasting some nuts that had fallen from a nearby tree. Shortly after she had begun to roast them, a creature came crashing through the bushes, and dove for the fire.
"FEEEEEED MEEEEEE!" The creature cried. Babbit blasted it back with a Fireball. The creature fell backwards, where she investigated it.
"Let's see. Looks like it might be human, reminds me of Lina and Gourry... Too short to be Pickle. You're Slipper and you haven't eaten for almost a whole day. Am I correct?"
"Fooood............." Slipper groaned, staring up at her. "Please?"
"Well, at least you have some manners. Pickle wouldn't have even said please." She paused, looking thoughtful. "Still, you ARE the one who cast the Anti-Rezo spell on me." She sighed. "Ah... What should I do?"
"Babbit, you're a nice lady, right?" Slipper grabbed her ankle and rubbed his head on her foot.
"Maybe we can make a deal. If you help me take this spell off of myself, I'll feed you for tonight, and give you breakfast in the morning." She looked down at him. "Deal?"
"Deal, but feed me first! I can't think of anything except how hungry I am!" He cried.
