Solidarity

Alex stood up slowly and balled her hands into tight fists. You hold your breath, thinking this is a sign of her resolve.

"You," Alex starts and raises a finger to Rugar, "Can go and FUCK your own ass with that stupid cock of yours. I would NEVER let myself willingly become some sick tissue for you to blow loads in you animal."

The minotaur's eyes nearly roll back in his head. While you can appreciate Alex's enthusiasm it may have just gotten you both killed or worse.

Lucy retreats and cowers in a corner as Rugar rises in a rush. In a flash he has both of you by the hair and dragged down the hallway you came down. The last thing you hear is his roar as he bodily throws you from his home and the door winks out of existence behind you.

In a tangled heap you smile at Alex.

"Thanks." you manage with a goofy smile.

"Don't be ridiculous. You think I would really abandon you here?"

As if on cue there is the dull wet "slap slap" noise of your pursuer approaching. Hastily disentangling yourselves you beat a hasty retreat further down the corridor away from the monster.

Once again running until you are both breathless you find yourself at a three way intersection.

Straight on the corridor continues on in darkness. To the left you can feel a chill breeze and make out what appears to be a blue mist beginning to form. To your right it is noticeably hotter and you think you can faintly hear a woman's voice but you can't be sure.
