Infiltration Of The Mind

Like a thousand knives on fire piercing the brain at once, the pain shot through her. Islana stumbled, losing contact with the wall she had just been next to. Nothing - not even when Kaithak got injured - ever felt like this.

Then came the noise that infiltrated the redhead's mind. The scream left the young woman's lips, right before the blood, and the collapse to the ground.

In a brief moment of focus, Islana signaled to Madaya to go, save herself, before it was too late.

There wasn't time to see what the girl did before the darkness came. There was no relief awaiting just more pain and the disturbing images brought to the mind. This creature seemed more alien than animal.

Islana felt nauseous and couldn't seem to focus. She attempted to push through magik for large animals to come and help but the effort was weak, at best.

Unable to do anything else for herself, a broken prayer was whispered.

"Save Madaya, if …we can't….both be."

It was all the young woman could manage. More pain and her body instinctively curled up tighter, as if trying to block out what could not be stopped.
