Journey: Chapter 30
Forest quickly turned towards Crimson who was galloping towards him. “We have to do something!! Don’t we?” He Yelled. Crimson sighed as she came to a stop in front of him.
“He said to run, so we should run. We can’t do anything to help anyway, it’s not our fight.” She said, but Forest refused to give up.
“But we have to tr-” “Look Forest, Methuselah said to run and that he’ll find us after. And after seeing that giant thornhead of a leech that he’s fighting. I’m think that he’s right here for us to run.” Crimson said with irritation. But Forest continued to argue with her for a moment until they heard a squawk of a Pteranodon and saw Nightfall running their way.
“Hey come on you guys!!! Do you two not see the GIANT DEATHWORM IN FRONT OF US THAT CAN KILL US WITHOUT TRYING!!!! WE NEED TO GET OUT IF HERE!!” Nightfall squawked in a panic.
“I know! But Forest has it in his featherhead of a brain that we should help out Methuselah fight those things!!” Crimson growled.
“WHAT!?! Are you joking!? Thats like asking a Coel to walk on land!! It’s death!! We need to go, now!!” Nightfall screamed,
“But we can still try. Right? We need him to get back home!” Forest said, Nightfall stared at him with such a face. He then started to say something in several different languages in frustration. Before pausing and a sly smile grew on his face.
“Forest, we can’t save him when we can barely survive here ourselves. We need to go, he’ll come find us. He seems like-”
“Oh shut it you inbred bary!! He’s dead, you’re dead. We’re dead and The other Five guys fries are dead and I’m stuck here!! And this is all his fault!!” Nightfall said pointing at Forest.
“Why is it my fault?” Forest snapped back,
“You brought me here, you got me into this mess!!! And now you want us to help him with a monster that towers nearly everything here!! Yeah, I say it’s your fault we’re in this whole situation!!”
“Hey, watch it you ungrateful little-”
“Oh, shut up you overgrown, and dehydrated Tintoberry. Your just as at fault!! You had to land of all places, a desert!! And you’re horrible, you hothead giga, snaggletoothed ravager, long legged defective croc.” Nightfall screeched, Crimson stared intently on the small dinosaur, ready to pounce him there. Before breathing deeply.
“Nice try, don’t do that again. Your life depends on on it. Now can we please get ou-” she said as she turned away from Nightfall before he went off.
“Don’t do it again? Hatchling, your parents must’ve not taught you well. I’m older than you, which means you need to respect me and can’t tell me what not to do again!! So go eat a leech!! You-” Nightfall started screeching the most obscene things all directed at
Crimson head turned and her eyes were red with anger that Forest had never seen. She slowly turned as Nightfall continued to say obscenely rude things at her and Forest kept looking at Crimson. Forest had never seen her so angry at anything ever before than what he was seeing now.
Forest watched as Crimson got madder and madder as Nightfall continued to bombard her with obscene things. Her eyes slowly disappeared as her pupils dilated to cover her eyes entirely. Her mouth opened and widened until her lower jaw began to throb as her jaws were open to the max. Forest began to see her legs stamping as she was trying to hold back with all her might. But Forest thought that this would only be for a few more seconds before she completely lost it on him.
“Nightfall, are you crazy!! Do you want to die!!” Forest yelled,
“Maybe, but I’m not as crazy as you. Yo can thank me later.” Nightfall said, Forest gave him a confused expression
“Thank You!? For what?”
“Saving your hides!! At least, if I’m right about how you two will react to what happens next.”
Immediately Nightfall began to run and yelled “Come and get me!!! You overgrown salamander!!! Or was it a miniature horse with scales? I can’t tell!!!” as he ran deeper into the dunes, cackling loud and nervously as he did. Forest then saw a blur of red rushing past him as Crimson hissed and began chasing down Nightfall with all her might.
“Nightfall!!! Where are you going!?!” Forest said, but he was getting to far away to hear him.
Forest began to start following both of them. But he heard a noise coming from the fight behind him. Forest turned to see that Methuselah had the Deathworm dead to rights, but as he was about to end the battle, a second one arose from the sands to aid the other in the fight. Taking Methuselah back down into the deep dunes. He then saw Methuselah rise again from the dunes, Forest noticed that Methuselah looked pretty good for fighting the large monster, but the first one had now gotten up. Making the fight turn into a two versus one of gargantuan proportions.
Forest wanted to continue to watch to make sure everything was going to be fine for Methuselah. But he didn’t want Nightfall to get mauled by Crimson before they left this place. He sighed, wishing he could do something to help. But knowing that Nightfall and Crimson were right, they would’ve been casualties. He quickly turned and ran off into the dunes to find Crimson and Nightfall.
