Chrysalis

Impacted by the second Gravity Bolt the poor lizard experiences a brief moment of suspension. A narrow window of time in which the effect of the upwards gravity is fading and the new, downward force is only beginning to kick in.

The tentative balance is suddenly broken and with sensational effect!

From hovering in place like an awkward levitating turtle the monster suddenly descends so quickly my eyes almost cannot catch its motion.

BOOM!

A tremendous impact occurs, sending dust and debris flying into the air, obscuring my vision and showering the cavern with shards of rock.

Holy moly! I didn’t expect that to happen! Well, not quite so spectacularly at least. Scurrying quickly I use my antennae to swipe at the air and try to clear my view and inspect my prey.

Eventually I have to stop in place as I feel I may have walked too far. Where the heck is it? Is this dust ever going to settle?!

On my back the two interlopers are just as blind as I am, although, for Crinis, it is a fairly standard state of affairs. Turning on the spot it takes a moment for me to realise the texture of the floor beneath my feet is slightly different.

Looking down I notice that I’m standing on the back of the monster!

It’s been squished right into the floor!

Slowly the dust falls to reveal that the lizard has been completely submerged in the rocky floor of the cavern by the impact and somewhat lacking it tact, I’ve wandered directly onto it’s back. Even worse, the monster is still alive, groaning painfully as the downward pressure continues to compact it straight into the ground.

Sorry about that buddy! I’ll er... ease your suffering?

Piercing Chomp!

Crunch!

Phew, this shell is seriously tough!

Piercing Chomp!

Crunch!

Still not there!

Again! Again! Again!
