"What the Hell is going on?!"

I can't quite figure out what I was seeing here. Everything around me appeared to be in grey-scale, and the only thing in-color was me, along with two unfamiliar faces. There's a 20-feet tall, purple, reptile-insect hybrid monster of some sort, trying to attack a girl from it's rigid back. The girl seems to be wielding some sort of light staff that shoots out tear-shaped light as projectiles.

"You having fun, Cho'gath?" The girl teased the monster as she effortlessly performed a somersault to evade the claw that tried to hit her.

"Quit bouncing will you, little brat?" The monster cried "Can't you see I'm trying to hit you!

Cho'gath (it's name I presume) spoke in a voice similar to a discount chorale group. As it's patience seemed to have been running thin, he let out a fury of swipes that let out brown, tooth like thorns.

"Were you?" Asked by the girl in a dumbfounded face as she circles quickly around the monster. "Then you gotta do better than that!"

"Argh!" Cried by the monster. "That's it! You asked for this!" The monster's swipes were starting to get faster and faster. It's claws blurred in all directions, up and down, left and right.

It was truly a spectacle, watching the monster's limbs move faster than I could comprehend, in desperation to give the girl a fatal blow. What caught my attention the most was how agile the girl was, being able to dodge all of it while having her tongue out. By now, I thought Cho'Gath's efforts were pretty pointless because the girl was still faster. But I was proven wrong, because it caught the girl off-guard and sent her flying. The girl landed butt-first onto the ground, and as if a miracle happened, the girl doesn't looked injured for some reason, but she was unable to move.

:"Gwahahaha! Finally!" Said by the delighted beast. "Prepare to die, summoner!" It added as it stomped on the ground.

At first, I thought it was just a simple gesture. A sign of happiness maybe? A sign of rage? Or maybe it just wanted to step on a bug. Then all of a sudden, a red circle surrounded the girl. After a couple of seconds, a set of tall, pointed spikes pierced through the ground inside the circle. Once it retracted, the girl was gone.

"No!" I unintentionally said. Which was my undoing.

"Oh? Another summoner to ease my hunger!" Cho'gath delightfully walked towards my direction.

On impulse, I ran towards a small alley between the two black and white buildings. Which was a bad idea, since it was a Dead End, luckily for me though, the alley was narrow, meaning the monster can't reach me. But that's the only thing that kept my hope afloat. Who knows what this creature is capable of, that might even bring the end to my life. All I hope for is this being a bad dream and I'm going to wake up like nothing happen.

"Ha! I wish!" I thought as my death inched it's way towards me.
