A door was torn completely off its hinges. But the worst part had to be the smell. It was a putrid foul smelling substance. I scrunched my nose in disgust, despising the foul stench as it filled my nostrils. Sending waves of disgust through my body. I wanted to puke but my body wouldn't let me.

But I had to push through, all I needed to do was go to the nearest market, get food, and come back safely. Hopefully not getting into a rumble with one of the creatures along the way.

I opened the door just enough to slide my slender body out. That's when she plunked down in front of me. That's when she blocked my path to escape.
