Thud! Thud Thud!!
A heavy breath got out of a small petite body. Her heart was beating at rates she didn't knew where possible her head dizzy trying to accept reality her stomach a knot trying to not vomit her insides outside her feet a trebling mess she could feel her hole body trebling her bones creaking she felt an immense cold that chilled her in place.
Still she was the lucky one, the sole monster focused at the other side of the courtyard bringing death, the teacher tried his best to stop the creature but the second it started losing it retreated. Still that luck ended now she was going to die.
The creature stopped 1 meter away from her and released one of it's tentacles still the girl dodged with reflexes she didn't knew she had, releasing the second one in a compo it got used long ago it got ready to feast but she dogged the second one putting her self in-between them. The tentacles weren't fast at all in fact they were slow the reason no child dogged them was they were petrified with fear.
She was petrified too but for some reason she could at least move. The monster didn't give up and tried to bite her head of, still she maked 3 unsteady steps back barely dogging. Being so close to death she couldn't control her self and peed at her pants yellow liquid in between her legs. She felt extremely awkward walking like that but now it wasn't time to care for such things.
The creature pulled its tentacles at the air and immediately attacked she barely dodged them again but the creature wasn't done from the tentacles themselves sharp spikes formed slashing at her feet she immediately tumbled at the ground but it didn't stop attacking creating a third tentacle, her at the ground and the other 2 barring her way she had no place to run that's why when the tentacle fell down she didn't try to dodge instead she fallen prone to the ground and rolled away at the left side, still because she was close to the protective barrier she couldn't roll more to escape having no time to rise up and trapped the monster finaly pierced both of her shoulders creating a small hole at the centre of them.
When she thought she was going to die an arrow hit the monster, Jessica with an old looking bow dead tired from running approached the creature. Still the arrow barely seemed to pierce its flesh but the shadowy creature knew better if not for its bretheren ability to sacrifice progress and height to survive injuries or fatal blows it would have died, now it simply shrinked at 8 cm the smallest it could get before dying, lozing all its progress and being one step away at death it released its final attack.
If humans were given time to study this creatures they would realise that each of them had a class, this shadowy creature class was a mage but not the typical mage strong races like humans and elves possess but their own downgraded version, currently it could only use a small spike attack at the range of 30 feet and only once.
When the dark spikes traveled and hitted Jessica it was clear they weren't strong or even that damaging if Jack got hit with such an attack he would certainly not feel it. But because Jessica was running and she grew old and complaisant not exercising herself besides today sitting in comfortable peace the attack did more then it should, she was trying to draw her bow once again while running in hopes to save the girl when an immense pain cursed through her leg, unable to support her weight she tumbled losing her balance the creature unable to miss the chance it charged straight at her before she even got her bearings 2 tentacles putted her at the ground teeth and mouth open to invite the feast SNAP!! CRACK!! MUNCH MUNCH.
After it eated her it went through a transformation its body growing limb through the pressure. Its body growed seemengly endesly the dark aura that it called its body got more pronounced darker more filled like an empty bottle filled with something invaluable it discarded its old tentacles and replaced them with more pronounced and more dangerous counterparts it now emineted a felling of dread all around, it was as of now done being the weak shadowy minion starting lower from all its peers it became a 25 cm behemoth of power that couldn't be challenged.
After a minute its transformation was done simply walking and standing up maked the ground tremble before its power but still it was not enough trough its vision it saw a familiar star, teacher jack remained at the same spot. If i manage to eat him too i will grow to 50 cm and then then i will be invisible.
Thats what it thought, the impossible opponent became the next steping stone to its greatness as for the girl the monster couldn't even see her in fact only this star was visible in the hole courtyard so in its usual recklessness it charged straight to its target.
As for her she stayed on the dirt unable to get up she was blending from 3 spots on her knee and both her shoulders and to make the matters worse the holes on her shoulders where bigger from the parts where her body occupied, her bones and flesh destroyed. She felt immense pain just for existing and her breaths became long and laboured, the only thing she wanted was to sleep but even that was robbed of her even though her injuries where lethal even though her blood filled the dirt she didn't die instead she felt untold pain. Unable to sleep and in to much pain to relax she turned her head to the centre of the courtyard where 5 lifeless body's lay and said in a hoarse voice.
Im sorry that i wished to see what it would take for teacher jack to be defeated im sorry i wished for anything to happen its all my fault and i cant even die to make up for it.
