Echo was feeling quite uneasy right now. He was certainly caught between a rock and a hard place at the moment. The approach of the being from behind, startled him a bit, but with this other person unnamused with his writing he wasn't sure who to confront first. The creature from behind was quite large, but didn't appear to have any ill intent, whereas this person seemed to want answers or she would get answers by beating them out of him. Even with the blinding hammer coming from around him, he squinted his eyes and held his door close. 

He quickly waved his hand through the light streaks and they dimmed into nothingness. He began waving his lantern again with the intent to write. [b]"I'm Mute."[/b] He quickly wrote in an attempt to appease her nature. Realizing his door would probably do little to stop these two, he quickly put it onto his back. He kept the lantern straight up with one hand and with the other he held it out with the palm up, trying to show he meant no harm.

He hoped the creature coming from behind him was peaceful. He barely noticed it in the other room, and it didn't seem aggressive there. Echo wasn't small, but these two had a way of making him feel that way. Although neither of them did look that terribly fast. If worst came to worst then he could possibly outrun them.
