Things were going well, it seemed. Although there was something much more disturbing now that their animal opponents had taken on a more 'human' feel. It was probably a similar discomfort to what Lisette felt when having to face hostile animals. 

Selan knew there was something wrong, but... If there were people like Nikkolaira in their world, this couldn't be too far off, could it?

Dylan's bolt struck the bear right above its kneecap, and the bear staggered forward, snarling furiously. "Lucky shot, you little wimp!" he roared, powering through the pain and continuing forward despite blood seeping down his leg brace.

Selan relaxed, leaning against the back of the cage. She nearly jumped when she felt something lightly hit the steel behind her -- someone had thrown a full bag of popcorn at her back. "Do! Some! Thing! Do! Some! Thing!" the audience began to chant in unison, and Selan knew it was directed towards her. 

If they wanted a show, they could give them one. "Lute! Once more?" she called to the white-haired man, referring to the curious ability he used before to amplify her voice.

"Humans are yummy and healthy and good!" the various foods around them began chanting, inching closer and closer with their teeth bared.

The tomato stand behind Lisette shook as the tomatoes sprouted legs and hopped onto the ground in front of her. She scooted backwards, holding her hands up in a 'don't shoot' gesture. "I don't suppose you'd be interested in vegetarianism...?" Lisette stammered nervously.

The tomatoes paused to look at each other, then resumed their march along with the rest of the food. "Get her! The stupid ones are the tastiest!"

"Hey, I'm not stupid!" Lisette yelled angrily, getting to her feet and drawing her bow. 

"Help, help!" Lucien yelled, prompting Lisette to turn around. He was being accosted by an angry-looking chocolate chip cookie.

"Duck!" Lisette quickly fired an arrow over the, uh, heads, of all of the foods on the ground, and it struck the cookie in its side. Crumbs sprayed and cracks burst from the arrow's point of entry, and the cookie collapsed to the ground.

The foods saw this and took this as a clear indication that this was [i]war[/i]. The tomatoes clawed and bit at the hard leather of Lisette's boots, while a nearby zucchini drew one of those [url=http://www.partybits2go.co.uk/js/plugins/imagemanager/files/picks_and_sticks/Plastic_Sword_Picks.jpg]big plastic food picks[/url] shaped like a sword, except the edge glinted in the light, indicating that it was quite sharp compared to its realistic counterpart. 

"Everyone, let's get out of here!" she called, looking around for the easiest path of escape. "Uh, um, the clock tower over there!" she pointed frantically.
