Chan’s heart was pounding in her chest, but at least the shadow kept her from spouting more inky stuff. That, and Galaxian, who was making her chuckle with his antics with the shadow. She willed the mouth to make the biting motion again, and then to move across he cavern floor.

“Almost there!” Altair’s cheery voice interrupted her. Without something to distract her, the steps she took became shaky again, but she pressed on.

As she walked, an iridescent mist descended around her. Altair piped up again. “Thought it might help to make you more demonic.” Two horns appeared on either side of her temple, and the wind behind her gave her a little shove. “Now get out there! I’ll be here once you come back.”

When Chan’s legs refused to move, the wind continued to push her away from the cave mouth. Her hands moved up to grip the cloth covering each shoulder. Shuddering slightly, she ran out into the open.
