Tabitha pulled Nymph into the alley, pressing herself flush against the wall. She edged towards the alley's entrance and peered around the corner. Distorted humanoid creatures (Red Water Morphs) stumbled about aimlessly in the street.
"Too many of them." The pink haired girl moved deeper into the safety of the alley. A foreboding mist hung in the city, slicking the walls of the cerulean buildings. Her clothes (heavy with condensation) stuck uncomfortably to her. Grimacing at the wet feeling, she motioned for her friend to follow.
Nymph followed closely, her water formed body jiggling slightly with each of her steps. She timidly glanced about as they crept deeper into the alley, side alleys branching off, the oppressive mist not letting up. She suddenly found herself being yanked into one of the aforementioned side allies. The watery girl swung around and grabbed onto her pink haired friend (who now crouched behind a gray dumpster).
A pair of Red Water Morphs stepped into the alley's entrance, the misshapen pair's movements making unsettling plops and squelches. Neither had a face yet still managed to look about with jerky motions.
"Wait here," Tabitha reassured her friend as she retrieved her Pan of Great Smiting +1 from the Pouch of Hammerspace at her left hip. She took up position at the center of the alley, holding the pan aloft, a drop of sweat running down her cheek. In unison, the two Red Water Morphs twisted towards her, their translucent red bodies gurgling.
