The events that had transpired happened so quickly that the blue furred dire rat was left dumbstruck...that or the fact that on their way down off the rock, Ed smacked his head onto the ground first. Not enough to lead to injury but forceful enough to discombobulate the boy. While the dust settled around him, he stared at his surroundings with some disbelief, questioning if the event really had happened. For a scant few seconds, Ed simply stared in the distance with a blank look in his eyes. He was snapped out of his stupor by Danny. Ed did not expect anyone to follow him here, and combined with the relatively silent floating by the wisp; Danny speaking to him [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTz5MtxrDTA]startled[/url] the dire rat. Ed, seeing as it was just Danny, visibly relaxed and let out a long sigh. [color=chocolate]"Jesus Christ, Danny...don't go sneaking up on me like that."[/color] He tells the wisp while shaking off the excess dust and moisture from his body like a dog would. [color=chocolate]"An explosion near the mouth of the cave? That doesn't sound good."[/color] Ed then looks at the lizard corpse and feels his stomach grumble still. The small amount of meat inside of his stomach was not enough, but the explosion near the entrance sounded urgent...so Ed decides to kill two birds with one stone. He would just carry his meal all the way to the cave mouth. The body that Ed possessed was physically stronger than most, that was a given fact; but with the [b][Stronger I][/b] skill he already had, carrying a single corpse across a short distance would likely be no problem for him. After hoisting and balancing the corpse upon his back, the young dire rat was ready to go to the mouth of the cave and investigate.

Forgot about embarrassing situation and mostly dried off by the fall off the rock. Still hungry but Explosions near the entrance warrant urgent attention. Decides to bring the Fanged lizard corpse along for the trip. Used innate strength combined with [Stronger I] to make carrying his meal easier. [/hider]
