The Garden, Friday Afternoon
The slumber party had worked. Karla felt much calmer now, a little less frightened. Even expecting it, her sudden vulnerability had knocked her on her ass, metaphorically speaking. But, to continue the metaphor further last night's gathering had steadied her on her feet and she felt that she might be able to handle a trip to the garden without freaking out too badly.
Which, of course, turned out to be a horrific mistake, as Karla discovered when she got attacked by the first goldfish-spewing attack alligator. Calling in her nastiest hunting knife, she was able to savage it enough to make it go elsewhere for its dinner. Unfortunately, the commotion from that fight was enough to draw in several of its friends. Within seconds Karla was surrounded, and her Sapphire shield was quickly losing power.
She totally should have paid more attention in class yesterday.
Hell's fire, Mother Night and may the Darkness be merciful. "HELP!!!" she screamed.
[For the pointy-eared one. Possibly others. ]
