The root lunged at the soldiers like vicious tentacles. As they defended themselves. At first it was just a piece of cake for them to fight with these snake-like roots, the time passed the soldiers sweated profusely. However, the roots didn't look as if they were going to stop any time soon.

"We won't be able to hold this thing much longer; let's leave this place," the captain shouted towards his subordinates.

No one objected and dashed towards the horses. "Go, bring that girl, fast!" the captain said to one of the soldiers as he fought with the tentacles.

The soldier sprinted towards the tent where they had locked the girl. He entered the tent and all the colour drained from his face. "No, no, how could this be!" he screamed and ran out of the tent. "Captain, there is no girl inside!" he roared at his companions.
