Chapter Nine

I jumped and yelled while the snake snapped his ugly self towards me making that obvious move by sticking his tongue out and waving it up and down creating the 'ess' sound. I slowly started moving backwards, but as always unlucky me the snake dropped his remaining self on the ground and bounced getting closer to me. I shut my eyes tight and scream my lungs out waiting for him to sting me. Or bite me? Is the snake even a male? I mean I don't know his gender yet, he might be a she snake. Does snakes have gender? Wait? What? Why am I babbling and why am I not feeling anything yet? I uncovered my eyes from my eyelids with fear and saw Sage struggling while holding the snake's mouth shut with his hands. I can see his bi's and tri's flexing through the jacket he was wearing. I shook my head gathering my thoughts.
