[h3]Ash's Ambush - [color=8dc73f]Scott[/color][/h3]

Scott started when Ash suggested they eat goblins. He wasn't so sure about eating something that could be so... well, intelligent, to be precise. Sure, he'd scavenged off a few of the other carcasses he'd seen around, but only the rats and the lizards - the fights the two species had protecting young or territory occasionally bore some rather gruesome fruit. As far as he could tell, their minds were those of animals - they survived off of instinct. The goblins, though... even if it were just simple cruelty, they'd been emotive. And Scott didn't know if he could stomach the thought, let alone actual flesh.

[color=8dc73f]"...I, uh - I think I'll stick to beetles, for now, thanks."[/color] He paused, then added, [color=8dc73f]"B-but I appreciate the offer!"[/color]

Sticking close to Naji, Scott climbed up to the top of the rock and lay down atop of it, so that he had a semi-concealed vantage point. From this angle, he could see pretty much the whole scene taking place, but any looking this direction would only glimpse his head, and he'd probably be able to duck back before they'd see him, in that instance. Tracking Ash's movements with his eyes, he watched the brief altercation take place... the lizard's jaw must be very powerful to do [i]that.[/i]

Following this, to his complete surprise, one of those Wisps shot their magical-blast-thing at the other goblin. Once released, the captive lizard immediately turned on him, and presumably bit it - he didn't see, because he was instead looking at the Wisp, falling down, down, down...

And then he realised the newly-freed lizard was coming towards them.

[color=8dc73f]"...Naji."[/color] he hissed, glancing down at the other. [color=8dc73f]"You need to move. Or hide. Or both. Doesn't matter. Just get somewhere that a comparatively large poison-spitting reptile coming this way won't find-slash-reach you. And stay out of sight!"[/color]

He turned his eyes back to the incoming lizard, which was still quite a ways away, but near enough to be a concern. And it could be hungry. In that instance, it wouldn't go for the physically fit, able pixie. It would go for the easy target. Scott stayed where he was, for the moment, trying to see if he could judge its intent before it got too close. If he needed to distract it somehow, he would, but he needed to think of something he could do, first.
