SAM

I woke up, blind, hurt and lost. Well, I wasn't blind, there was just darkness everywhere. But I was lost and I was in pain

Then I remembered. My fall, after the dragon had knocked me down through the opening and to here

John came into my head. I hoped he was still alive or I couldn't forgive myself

I decided to find out where I was exactly and then find a way out. But first, I have to see the extent of the damage. I checked myself

Broken ribs, fractured wrist and a very sore leg, okay, moving on

Using my good hand, I pushed myself to my feet and stuttered around on my hurt leg

"Okay, now where?"

I seriously had no idea where to go now. But I had to find a way out. Better than sitting around, while everyone else is fighting above

I headed in no particular direction, confused on how the hell I was getting outta here

"Lost, lost, lost, I'm so fucking lost and it's pissing me off"

No where to go. No direction known. But only one motive: Get back to everyone

I struggled on my injured leg, with only one good hand and several of my ribs were broken, so that didn't help either

"Ellimist, let me outta here and let me get back to my friends," I called out to nothing

Something moved in the dark

"Oh please, no"

A large creature appeared, spikes covering its body. I couldn't think of a morph to use at all. I was helpless now

The creature lunged at me. I ducked and grabbed hold of its bare ankle. And holding on tightly, I began to concentrate on the DNA

"Please, please, please, let me gain your DNA"

I could feel the creature slacking. At once I took my chance to run

"Ellimist, help me now please"

No answer. Gee, he's helpful. So I decided to try again

"Ellimist, let me outta here and let me get back to my friends"

Still no answer. I was getting agitated. Let's scream it out

"ELLIMIST, LET ME OUTTA HERE AND LET ME GET BACK TO MY FRIENDS, NOW!"
I saw something shimmering in the darkness. Hope grew in my chest

As I got closer, I saw that it was a glowing white disc, suspended in the air

"What is this?"

"It's a portal. It'll take you to your friends, or close enough"

"How do I know you're telling the truth?"

"By stepping inside"

"Can I trust you?"

"You can"

I took a deep breath and stepped in, feeling light-headed and dizziness

TORI

The gigantic snake had bitten my sister and I was all on my own. Leah was down and out of the way, while I was busy snarling at the snake, trying not to get hit by the fangs. What would happen if I did, I didn't want to find out

The snake lashed out. I leapt out of the way and saw the fangs coming out

(Aaaaahhh)

"ROWR!"

Something large and orange with black stripes came flying down from the tree, pinning the snake to the ground

(Adam?)

(Help please)

(Coming)

I bit down on the nose, drawing blood, as the snake tried to shake me off, as well as a full-grown tiger

The snake reared up against Adam's weight, throwing both of us off

(What happened to Leah?)

(She got bitten)

(What?)

(Look out)

Adam leapt over the snake's head, slashing through the tough skin as he flew over. The result was a thrashing snake and me flying through the air when its tail struck me

(Ouch)

(Leah, demorph, destroy the poison!)

When I looked over at my sister, I saw that she was human again and steadily getting to her feet

(Leah, look out)

She turned around, as Adam attacked the snake going for her. I ran over and attacked the flank. The snake knocked Adam away, before throwing me next to him, but as least it was away from Leah

The snake hissed and I swear I didn't like this at all…

Another snake had joined its companion

A tiger and a jackal against two gigantic snakes

Definitely not good

We are so screwed
