Yesterday seemed to go well.. as well as any day could go normally in the world that they live in. But that didn't last very long at all.

-Evening the day before-

She was crouched low so as not be seen by what looked to be a deer, only it was no longer a dear anymore. It was mutated, different. Luckily all that's happened to the world it didn't actually affect anything that was edible.. unless it was plants. You never know which ones would be last you'd put in your mouth or all over your food. She softly and slowly stepped alittle closer, as far as she dared to go. Embara didn't want the animal to be alarmed to her presence. Plus there was not telling what it would do, run, fight..call for help? Taking a deep breath she swung her arms out in front of her waving them flowingly through the air. Her left arm stayed pointed out infront of her whilst her right raised and fell behind her head before lowering down to chest level. He arms forming the pose you would normally see a Archer take. As she pulled her right arm back, black mist that seemed be sucked from the shadows around her swirled silently to form a bow, the string and finally the arrow. Although it was mostly a dark mist form made completely up of shadows, as it quivered it seemed to hardened into something tangible as if it was something real, but just as quickly as it had 'hardened' it dissipated back into a shadowy form.

Embara released the arrow, and watched as it found it's mark. There was a look of surprise on her face, because she actually only had to use one arrow. That was a first for her, to take something down, food wise, in just one shot. The bow she was holding lost it's form as just as if it were smoke, it spread out until became thin and was no longer there. Returning to where it was borrowed from. She stood up and started walking proudly to her kill to reap her rewards, when a new beast she never seen before beat her to it. She immediately dropped to the floor and peered out of the tall grass to see what it was doing. Was it taking what she worked for?

What is that..? she wondered. It like it was a giant bat but it wasn't, it also looked like a spider. How was anything like that even possible? She had to get out of here, she never seen that thing before and she didn't want to find out what it could do. She'll just have to go hunt somewhere else or tomorrow... she still had food for tomorrow anyway. Embara started to crawl backwards alittle before she got up, once she turned around and took her first steps she tripped and unwittingly let out a surprised noise. Embara cursed under her breath as she craned her head to look behind her to see the creature looking at her with it's many eyes.

-Last Night-

Rocks, trees, mini ponds, buildings.. all of it was whizzing past her as she ran, it was all a blur for her. Her hair was flying behind her, her bangs part on either side of her face and on top. revealing her light blue gray right eye and her blind left eye which lost most of it's color. And because of her blindness in one her she couldn't very well see the left side of her body, and that worried her. Embara peered behind her, she didn't see the creature but that didn't mean it wasn't there. She looked up in the sky, but it wasn't there either. She looked back in front her, she had to pay attention she didn't want to trip like they always did in the movies during a chase scene. If she could just make it back to building she's housed in she'll be alright. The thing looked to big to be able to get inside.

She could see it right in front her, just a few feet away. The next thing she knew she was getting side lined from her left. The ground was no longer beneath her it was just below her right side as she flew across it and smacked into a or rather landed in a pile of rubble. She left out a cry as she tried to get up and looked in the direction of the attacker. Where the hell did it come from? Embara tried again to get up but noticed a good amount of pain on her right side. Instinctively place a hand there, she felt something wet...warm. Her eyes widen as she removed her hand to look at it. She was snapped back into reality when she heard a screeching noise, narrowing her eyes and furrowing her brows she scream back at it. She raised both her arms up as if to shield her face but her arms were out abit further than that. Just before the spider bat would have collided with her it instead ran into what appeared to be a black arcing wall, and fell disorientated.

Embara took this opportunity to materialize herself a crutch so she could get up. With her free hand she held it, and the shadows that formed beneath the rubble they were upon stretched out and grabbed of two of the creatures legs before it realized what was going on. It frantically tried fly away the grips of the shadows was strong, so instead it swung out at her, but was thwarted again but this time but a small shield of darkness. Embara swung her left arm out infront her until it was straight then back to her chest, then keep going it behind her and pushed out. More shadows zipped out from beneath the rubble to form smoke and it surrounded a good portion of the neck and head, and what would supposedly be shoulder if it had any. She squeezed her hand within itself to form a clenched fist. The darkness formed a ball before it closed around the creature. All movement ceased at that moment.
