He opened his eyes slowly while groaning. He sat up but held his head tightly to make sure there wasn't any bumps. He looked around but the room was still moving around him. He laid himself back down carefully and shut his eyes.
"Help me please" said a faint voice "where am I? Please let me out of here"
He laid still, and when he remembered his eyes shot open. He quickly snapped his fingers. Kiara popped out of midair and landed on his lap.
"OW OW GET OFF" He yelled in pain " MY TAIL MY TAIL AH"
Her knee was smashing his tail and she quickly shifted her knee to one side allowing him to lift his tail immediately.
"I'm so sorry honey! I didn't know your tail was so sensitive" she traced her fingers on his chest before realizing that he was completely naked. "Oh my god WHAT THE FUCK"
She immediately got off him and then it took her another second to realize that he was pitch black. All of him. She could see the shapes and details in his face, but he was like a shadow. This time his eyes were blood red. She backed away slowly.
"You didn't tell me you looked this scary in the underworld" her eyes were wide with fear.
She kept backing up and tripped on his foot. He immediately got up to catch her before she fell.
"I'm sorry! I didn't realize it was that bad" she kept looking at him.
"Oh my.. your teeth are so sharp too. And your nails? Claws?"
"I can take you home if you'd like" he said looking down. Almost ashamed. He was rubbing the back of his neck.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know the my form in the underworld was going to terrify you this much"She looked at him and realized that what she said was insensitive and probably made him insecure.
"Ah! No no I'm sorry! Not like scary SCARY, I'm just a little bit surprised I guess"
She walked towards him and reached for his hand. It was really big despite his small stature. It was also warm like when touching a human. That's when she realized that she had never truly touched him. It was only his tentacles.
They were having an intimate moment of staring into each other's eyes when suddenly three holes ripped through the ceiling. That was when three other creatures fell through. They all hit the ground roughly and one began to laugh.
"Hey Pluto! Wanna hang-" the creature stopped abruptly when it caught a whiff of Kiara's scent. It's eyes widened when it saw her.
She was dead meat if he got to her.
