    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    Halloweenfest 2018 - Part Three
    #9
    “UGH!”

    Otrera attempts to pick herself up from her recent display of clumsiness. It took a couple of tries, but what could she exactly do with just these rather stumpy and short legs of hers? Nothing! She was completely stuck and rather irritated at the turn of events. It didn’t even cross her mind that she might be stuck like this forever (hopefully not).

    At least she has finally gotten herself back onto all four hooves. “I’m not going to be losing this game no matter what,” she tells herself out loud. It would be the last thing she would not let happen.

    “Back to what I was doing before,” she reminds herself, setting her eyes in the direction of where she was going to be hiding and moved into that way as quickly as possible. So far it seemed that Jack hadn’t caught onto what she was doing. Everything looked perfectly normal to her. <i>Well, except those shadows moving closer to me</I>. “WAIT! WHAT!” She yells out loud, staring straight at the shadows coming closer to her.

    The filly halts quickly, realizing that these were definitely not part of her plan. Two of them came forward slowly, but still moved with ease to get around without much trouble. She isn’t entirely sure what she is supposed to do. “I’m definitely not going to run away, Jack!” She is certain this is just a silly trick and part of the game. After all, Jack had just messed up and she had teased the poor old thing.

    The shadows moved forward, and eventually reveal themselves. Her eyes open wide in shock at what she sees. They are definitely her twin older sisters! “Agapi and Agave, what the hell are you doing here?” She asks instantly, even moving closer towards the two.

    Otrera was not pleased one bit by them being here. They would both ruin her fun and put a stop to her game! She was even sure Agave would try and win the game, making her lose. That was not going to make anything easier for her. She envied them for being able to shift into beautiful creatures.

    At this point she is rather more annoyed (perhaps even fearful of what they are going to be doing and even telling their parents about how she snuck off). “Well, are you going to say something!?” She growls at them both. The girl waits for her sisters’ reply, but her demand is only met with a growl from both.

    She then realizes these are not her sisters!

    “What! Who are you?!?” She yelps out with fright and stumbles back from where she stops. Otrera quickly turns around and heads towards the direction she came from. It was her first instinct to run, but after that she isn’t even sure what to do. She is certain of a couple things—those two are definitely not her sister, they are something entirely monstrous, and they just might eat her!

    The two monsters that look like her sisters let out another growl of discontentment. Otrera screams again. It only encourages them to move faster, and they are certainly not slow like they were before. They move more quickly, obviously encouraged by her fear. Otrera runs faster, almost stumbling with every step, but she manages to make her way back towards the pile of treats she had left for Jack. Her sister-like monsters are right behind her, growling with all that they have in them.

    “OH GOD! OH GOD!” She can only manage to say. She can only think of running. What was she supposed to do!? She can’t do anything! “Help me! Help me!” She screams running past the pile of treats, heading towards the cavern. “Jack! Jack!” She cries out, tears begin filling her eyes.

    She leaps into the darkness of the cave, huddling behind a pile of outcropped rocks. Otrera pushes herself against the wall, and squeezes between the outcrop rocks and the cavern wall as much as she can. It is her only hope that maybe they will not see her. Maybe she will disappear (she can only hope!).

    But it is the sound of crunching and chewing that draws her to peak out behind the rocks she hides behind. In the distance she can see that the two sister monsters of hers have found a better interest than chasing her. The monsters are both indulging in the treats she had set out for Jack. “Well, at least it worked for someone,” she whispers very softly. She feels a big relief lift off her shoulders.

    Now she waits to see what happens next.
