?Westward!? called Garlic Junior as he took the lead. The pair of Zangya and Garlic Junior had settled upon heading to the cemetery, and now, they had decided to pass the time by racing to their destination for the afternoon. Currently, the smaller of the duo had taken the pole position, with the emerald-skinned combatant just inches behind him.
?You?re not going to beat me, Garlic,? Zangya retorted to him, laughing as she paced her steps.
?I sincerely doubt that, my blue woman,? the goblin assured her confidently. Zangya smirked.
?Just you wait, Garlic.?
?I?m already waiting, Zangya my dear.?
Zangya had made the choice to put aside the feelings of resentment she felt towards Garlic for the competition, seeing as their last encounter?in the dojo?had not worked out so well.
?Still waiting,? Garlic taunted.
?Hold your horses.?
And with that, Zangya leaped into the air and did her flip over Garlic?s head, landing inches in front of him. Unfortunately, the leap wasn?t the most perfect or graceful thing, and her landing plus Garlic?s speed and continued running caused them both to crash into each other, knocking them flat on their faces.
?Ouch!? Zangya bellowed as she landed on the blistered left side of her face. Suddenly, it felt like a blaze of overcooked proportions had been ignited on her cheek, and she quickly sat up and slapped herself, attempting to put out the fire in her face.
?You okay?? Garlic ceded, crawling over beside his injured comrade.
?No,? Zangya stated in a tone that reflected to Garlic that that fact should?ve been obvious, ?The stats say that this is a major injury. I don?t know if I can stand it much longer, Garlic.?
?Zangya,? Garlic consoled, ?Don?t worry about it. Just let your mind clear of it.?
Zangya took a deep breath as Garlic?s warty hand slid down the side of her face. ?OK,? she nodded, ?It feels?better now,? she said, turning to look at Garlic. ?Thanks.?
?No problem, sweetheart,? he chuckled, and then stood?which didn?t raise his height much at all, and beckoned for her to follow as his feet began the race again. Laughing, Zangya stood and followed him, and the two soon turned south, heading for the cemetery, they hoped.
This was going to get creepy soon, as night was falling, and the cemetery was getting closer and closer with each speedy pace.
