Skye held his breath, as much as possible, brething very slowly, and very quietly.
Midnight Snacks // One on One w/ @Starry
group
Arie was at Skye's tree. Her eyes darted up, trying to see anything out of the ordinary.
Skye felt eyes on him, but he didn't dare move, he continued breathing the same way as before, his lungs achong for more air as his heart pounded in his chest.
group
Arie glared at Skye. She had spotted him. She pondered, for a moment, then moved on.
Skye kept to his tactics, though his telepathy told him he'd been found.
group
Arie quietly slipped off of the dragonling. It had given up searching and had laid down to take a nap. Arie, knowing there was no way she could wake it up, let out a sharp whistle.
Skye suddenly employed his true tactics, revealing dozens of copies of himself throughout the the forest around him. He was focused on tricking Arie's senses into thinking that each clone was breathing, and smelled like him. He suddenly bloted, shifting to wolf form, along with half the copies, who all started moving.
group
Arie rolled her eyes. A rumbling noise could be heard from the distance and was getting closer.
"Hear comes Darling."
And who might Darling be? asked Skye, making sure it sounded like it came from all over, keeping his illusions moving as lifelike as possible, still manipulating Arie's perceptions.
group
"My… pet." Arie smiled. The rumbling sounded all around.
Skye ran faster, causing the clones to dash off in all directions.
group
Arie laughed maniacally as the rumbling reached a crescendo. A large shape was running through the trees.
Skye kept running, each clone going in a single direction.
group
Suddenly, a giant Chupacabra was nuzzling Arie. She scratched her nose.
(What's a chupacabra?)
Skye heard the bounding stop, and ran faster.
group
(Lovely!)
group
(Exactly :) )
group
"Darling, go get him," Arie instructed.
Skye ran faster, suddenly dropping all the illusions in exchange for his warping ability.
group
Darling howled, giving Arie time to climb on. They gave chase.
Skye heard the howl, and his ears flattened, and he pushed to run faster, but he was already exhausted.
group
Arie and Darling were easily catching up.
Skye was panting for breath, forcing himself to keep going.
group
Darling was nearly in catching distance. (Trust me, let them catch you)
(There ain't no way he's getting away…)
Skye suddenly stumbled, falling to the ground, panting for breath as he tried to get up.
group
Darling leaped, pinning him to the ground, even though it was probably unneeded. Arie slid off. She strolled over to Skye, bending down to look him in the eye.
Skye flinched as he was pinned down, shifting back to human form, still gasping for breath.
group
Arie bent so close as to fell his ragged breath.
"I. Win." She leaped up, speaking in a happier tone.
"I win! I win I win I win!"
Skye gaped at her, his eyes wide with shock.
