(Ooc: Word Count; 878. I'm worried about Wisp now.
)
After two minutes had passed, Wisp decided to open the door. “I hope Zorlo doesn’t mind me coming in. You think so, Armond?” The albino monkey patted the rabbit girl on her head in response. “Ok then.” As the girl opened the door, a gentle heat greeted her.
A little warmer than Florida’s heat right now.
The two had stepped inside of a jungle, with the door slowly closing behind them. Armond jumped off of the girl and immediately scampered away.
Of course, this is his home too, she thought. The rabbit girl took in her surroundings, as well as listening for any approaching danger. The blue jeans that covered the female’s legs just hung loosely, every now and then swinging with the rhythm of the young adult’s walking. Her hiking boots made a gentle thudding sound as well as kick up some of the dirt.
It helps to be a little wary in new surroundings.
Most of the trees around the young adult towered over her, for a good 25-30 feet at the top. They also stopped most of the sunlight from reaching the area she was standing in. Other spots had visible rays of light coming in. The dirt underneath her was a rich brown color, a milk chocolate version popped up in the light. There were other leafy trees and bushes as well, from a lime to a dark emerald green in complexion, with hints of yellow on the edges.
First time begin in any sort of jungle, so I could expect some predators… I hope I don’t get a chance to see what’s lurking in here.
As she walked further into the room, the trees spread out to a good five feet apart. The orange-clad female’s head kept twitching left and right, both trying to stay focused due to the heat and straining to hear any approaching danger. Sure enough, something had found the girl, but it was not friendly.
All the shapeshifter heard was a rustle, then a whir. She turned to her right, and leaped back. A snake’s head had grabbed her bag, but let go of it, the two foot-long fangs dripped out a clear liquid. The base of its head alone was four feet wide, while the rest of its body was obscured due to it matched the dirt. What the girl did not know is that this snake was around 15 feet long. The snake had no unique markings on it, save for the raised middle of its scales. It lunged at her again, with no hiss this time.
The rabbit girl jumped to the right twice, as the snake’s head came out of the ground again. It slowly rose up, but it gave the girl enough time to notice it’s features. There where four pits, all in a row along the side of its upper jaw.
Oh great, it’s a pit viper type! Its eyes were traditional for a snake, yet the color was a dull copper.
It slithered towards her, and the rabbit girl punched resulting in another gray orb impacting the serpents head. The snake’s head only bobbed back as it continued to move toward her. She kept stepping back and tripped over a log. It was not a log though, it was part of the snake’s body. It had weaved itself around the tree trunks that girl was near.
The shapeshifter landed on the serpent’s back as it started to coil up for a strike. She let herself fall to the other side of its body as it lunged at the girl. It ended up biting its own back, as the girl ran along side its body. The width of it’s body mostly was a good five feet wide tapering at its neck and tail. The snake then did something odd.
It lifted up part of its body, then dropped it. The girl’s left leg was pinned under the serpent’s weight. “Uhn! Get off of me!” The shapeshifter punched into the snake’s side. The head yet out a grating hiss, as it’s body recoiled off of her leg. The shapeshifter nearly managed to stand up when the serpents tail end coiled tightly around her.
Ugh, I… can’t move…! The top of the serpent’s head came at her, mouth closed, and swung at Wisp. It fully connected with her left side. It released the girl a spilt second after the impact and she flew through the air. The shapeshifter only managed to turn around to have her back smash into a tree. All of the air rushed out of her lungs in quick gasp. The girl dropped to the ground, and began to sit up, but fell back to the ground. Pain was shooting through her body, as the orange-glad girl just watched the serpent’s had come closer. It stopped and reared back with a loud hiss. It was going to strike her.
Everything is too jumbled… together. Just a green… and brown… blur…
The rabbit girl could barely feel the heat and humidity of the jungle as fear tightened around her. The silver rimmed glasses that were normally on her face now glinted at her reflecting small beams of light. The shapeshifter tried to catch her breath, gulping in air. She closed her eyes and waited for the snake to bite.
