Anthony cringed as the commanding word came over him. [i]Move you idiot![/i] But the empousai was already there behind him. Her voice was too loud now, too close. He went into a slight daze as his fingers loosened on the rifle, his mind conflicted and beating itself down. [i]She's an empousai, SHE EATS HUMANS FOR FUN! So enticing though...[/i] Anthony's enchanted sword that was strapped to his back wiggled a bit, then the snake slowly formed out of it, baring its fangs at Ani. [i]I love that thing,[/i] Anthony thought happily, hoping for the snake to distract the empousai for long enough. The snake automatically came out of the sword's blade if it detected a threat nearby Anthony, which was always nice when he wasn't able to say any commands to it.
