Flynn heard the crashing and screeching from inside and before he could move to take a look shaa came flying out a now shattered window "Fancy indeed" he chuckled a little with a nod before turning his attention to the building as the other got up "Let's finish this one hm?" he questioned and looked at the building for weak points to collapse it upon the creature that was still inside for the moment at least. He wasnt big enough to do a lot but he could at least search for supporting beams and point them out to the other. Which that was exactly what he ended up doing as he gestured to the last few support beams and which ones looked weak "Hit those and it will come down big guy" he remarked to the other glancing over to the other to see if he agreed with this assessment or not.If not they would have to quickly think of another plan before the winged beast found its way from the burning building. His tail flicked behind him with his ears perked listening for signs of movement from the inside. He heard it moving a bit but nothing big yet.

Shaa looked over at the support beams that Flynn was pointing to and nods in agreement. Ok, let’s give it a try! Shaa can hear the shifting of the beast from the inside. It wouldn’t be long before it would make a very unwelcome appearance. Shaa ran into the first support and the side of the building buckled a bit further, collapsing the door frame. A large roar can be heard coming from the rubble.
Shaa looks over towards the man and boy that were on the floating island, noting that they were nowhere to be seen. Good. That was one less thing for them to worry about. No reason to hang around here any longer than they needed to. No sooner as he was planning a quick escape from the area, Shaa can feel another rumble coming on. He looks over to Flynn, Hang on, this is going to get rough!
The road they were standing on suddenly starts to list. The road ripples and turns like an ocean wave as the buildings around the street twisting in on themselves. The sky above them is rolling in clouds of black and green as the smoke and ash from the city rise to the sky. Shaa manages to somehow keep his balance as a cart crashes beside him. Dude, head for that alley, we got to go! In the distance, Shaa can hear a large CRACK coming from the direction of the escaping crowds. Well that didn’t sound good.

Flynn watched the other knock into the supports of the building and boy did he hope that beast was dead. Outside of that thought he grimaced as the earth began shaking again. Luckily years at sea made it easy to stay up and he nodded running towards the alleyway swiftly hopping over some rubble and looking towards the cracking noise as they went seeing a way blocked off. He however kept going and pushing himself “just keep going we need to get out of this” he grimaced as they ran. He vaulted a few beams in the way and moved through the rubble towards safety where most had made it to by now.
It was hard to breath in all the dust and smoke but he forced himself to keep going until he was away from collapsing buildings pausing to look back to make sure the other was behind him and out of the bigger part of the mess. Upon seeing him he relaxed some “you alright back there mate?” He asked as he glanced the other over for any signs of injuries and such. As he waited for an answer he glanced around making sure no one else was stuck and everyone was out

Better than I was 10 minutes ago. He said panting as he too dodged and vaulted over the various bits of debris that previously were buildings and alleyways. It was hard to tell what was louder. The sounds of the falling structures or the rumble from the sky above. Shaa, who sense of bearing and direction was normally extraordinary, found himself in a tizzy as the entire world seemed to be in tumult all at once. He couldn’t even imagine what might be causing something like this.
Soon enough, they made it to large groups of people who were gathering and starting to make their way to safer clearings. He caught up to Flynn with a cough and a laugh. Well I have to say, that was the toughest early release process I have ever been through. If I had known it was going to be like that, I would have stayed in jail.
As Shaa watched the devastation, he got a sinking feeling in his stomachs. Knowing the elves, they would probably have the entire place rebuilt in 6 months. But that was the elves. There would be a lot of other creatures out there who it would take a lot longer to recover from something like this. What did the rest of Charon look like? We’re his friends ok?
Caleb! Oh my gods! Where is Caleb?! Shaa looked over and saw a middle aged human woman screaming and looking around frantically. Several other people had gathered around her already trying to console her. There were too many people, they said. Probably just lost in the crowd. No! He was behind me, right behind me until the roads split open and we got separated. He was supposed to meet me here but he’s not here! He’s still there! By the bell tower, with that …that THING! Oh Caleb! I never should’ve left NOOOOOO…. The woman was now near hysteria. Fire drakes in the town was super weird. Was it all that hard to believe something else may be out there?
Shaa walked over to the woman. The bell tower… was it the one with the glass mosaic on the side, and the gate? The woman was too beside herself to be even bothered a giant Minotaur was addressing her. Yes! He ran inside! I heard it coming after him. My poor Caleb! Chances are poor Caleb was very dead at this point. Shaa knew the bell tower. It was old, even by elf standards. If it hadn’t collapsed and crushed the man, surely whatever was after him had finished off the job by now. Another man had his hands on the woman’s shoulders. He’s fine Sarah. I saw that tower, it’s still intact. Can’t beat the old craftsmanship. Shaa had just vaulted over plenty of old craftsmanship so he wasn’t nearly as optimistic. Shaa noted that Flynn had been probably listening in as well. He looked over at him and raised an eyebrow asking what he thought.

Flynn relaxed once they were out of harms way and checked on his crew seeing some battered and injured he worried and made sure they were taken care of, worried for their safety above all else. They were practically a family after all. He cleaned soot off the youngest lads face and toddler his hair noticing the boy trying not to look scared though he was shaking “you’re a brave lad Floyd. Good job n rest for now alright? We will check on the ship after this chaos is done” he said giving a small smile to assure the boy things would be okay. It was his burden to worry not the crews. He wanted to see them smile and laugh as always and nothing else.
He then looked over sighing as he heard the sob story “Spose there’s nothing for it” he remarked and shrugged off his coat and took off his hat handing them to one of his crew mates “right hold this and if I don’t return you all know what to do aye?” He questioned getting a few nods and worried looks as he began walking back towards the town. He as mentally done with it all but knew it was in his nature to help others even if he would rather not.

Shaa wasn’t quite sure why he was going back for this guy. He didn’t owe him anything and irs not like the town was super safe even without the..whatever it was that was chasing this guy. Maybe it was the thought of somebody being abandoned. As someone who knew all about that, it was a feeling that he wouldn’t wish on his worst enemy. Besides that, she was crying…and Shaa was never a fan of tears. An experience he left behind long ago.
Then there was this Flynn guy. It’s not a great start when you meet your travel companions in prison. Or maybe it is? Maybe you want the guy who had seen tough times. He could handle himself ok, which was a plus. But could he count on him to watch his back if things got hairy? He would still have to see about that. Shaa turned to Flynn.
I know the way to the bell tower. Should be about twenty minutes as the Woolful skips. Assuming the roads are still there that is. He stopped for a minute. Hey, it’s probably going to get pretty hairy in there. Even when we get to the tower, we are probably going to have to deal with….whatever it is. Could be anything. You sure you want to do this? I wouldn’t blame you if you backed out. Shaa reached into his bag and fished around while waited for an answer. kMcktYUX
Suddenly, from out a small broken alley way came a voice. I’m here. I’m here! CALEB, my dear sweet Caleb! Your alive! Caleb looked halfway to dead but at least he wasn’t full on dead. The beast, it chased me into the tower. I made it out the back and the tower collapsed.
Shaa breathed a sigh of relief. Ok! No one else go in! Not until we figure out what the hell is going on here.
