The sound of the flaming burning monster rages towards me. I clumsily move before he reaches me and jump under a table. Thrown away the table has been a weak barrier. I cry and screech. All the ears that hear choose to ignore. His fiery palms meet with my neck. My windpipe carries the flames down into my lungs.
The flames roar to life until the water beast puts them to rest. She speaks to the fire monster in a pleading voice. My breathes of ice are ear breaking. I don't get to hear their conversation.
I know water beast has gotten mad and doused fire monster. He is turned into nothing but dead coal. He puffs out soot as he leaves the place is a mess now.
Water beast swiftly reaches me and cradles me. My tears mix in with her cool freshness. She soothes me with the sound of running water and rocking waves.
"No... more... fire" she gurgles.
