Solomon, the moment he heard the roars of the chimera began panicking and thinking of a way to avoid the chimera. He was terrible when it came to physical movement, so there was absolutely no way he was outrunning that thing; in fact, he highly doubted anyone could, even if they were great athletes or something.

Using those other kids as a distraction, he came up with an idea. Using the trees as cover, Solomon took the longest route away from the chimera as possible, moving in a veritable curve towards the castle.
