She rolled her eyes, grabbing the creature by the mane and swinging herself up. She almost told the creature to fly away, then scowled as she realized that she would have to help him. She held out a hand, annoyance written across every feature.
She brought the griffin up as the ground collapsed. She coughed, shaking dust from her hair, and urged the beast forward. "Quickly," she muttered to Failn. "I want to get rid of him as soon as possible."
(Not in the mood?)
(Sorry, I've been struggling to find the time to just write.)
Kye chose not to react to her comment and instead looked down at the damage by the collapse. Something was odd about it. He lived underground most of his life and had never had anything like this happen. Not naturally anyways. This had happened the one time the ninja had decided he was a bad guy and tried to hunt him down and bury him underground. That didn't work out well for them. But this reminded him of a magical attack which would explain why that happened so much faster than it should have. It was just made to look natural. "Who do you think wants us dead?"
(I get that. Writing can be a pain in the @$$ sometimes.)
She jerked, looking back at him. "What do you mean, who wants us dead!? You think that was an attempt at our lives?" She shook her head. "Honey, people are always trying to kill us. It's part of the job." She shook her head. "Unless…" she spoke quieter, and was clearly speaking to herself now. "It was underground… no, it can't be. I won't let it." She shook her head to clear her mind.
