((Hopefully Citre will be on again at some point soon...))
Fushigi walked back into the hall of lava pits, she was no longer able to walk in a straight line, so she tottered a few steps forward and right followed by a few steps forward and left, back and forth she snaked moving nearer and nearer to Serosus and Reap, she felt a sticky substance under her paws and vaguely noticed that the floor was covered in a disturbingly large red puddle. Slowly her mind made out what she was seeing, Blood! It was all over the place, splashed across the floor of the huge hall, streaked across the walls, obviously a huge fight had taken place here!
As she made her way towards Reap who was she now noticed sprawled flat on her belly in the middle of the puddle laughing her head off, she tried her best to ignore the blood and the heads of cultists that were strewn about. She was glad Reap was still alive although she feared slightly for her sanity. Serosus as far as she could see was also alive, which again was a very good thing.
Suddenly a head snapped at her paw as she walked past it, it obviously hadn't quite given up the ghost yet. Fushigi knowing nothing of the fight that had gone on in here was freaked to say the least, she pulled her paw out of the way quickly but not quite quickly enough, some of the Serraptors teeth managed to snag her skin above her paw tearing it as it fell back to the floor. In shock and pain Fushigi quickly scooped the head up and flung it into a nearby lava pit where it sizzled and burned satisfyingly.
Making her way at last to Reap (after giving all the heads a wide berth) Fushigi dropped down next to her (too tired and shocked to care about the blood she lay in), panting, her muscles twitched all over her body, obviously not yet understanding that they could rest now, they didn't need to remain alert... although they may not have much time before the rest of the cultists returned from their fruitless hunt for her.
Come down from the mountain, you have been gone too long
The world is alive now, in and outside our home
You run through the forest, settle before the sun
Darling, I can barely remember you beside me
You should come back home, back on your own now
