First Try

Stepping further out from the bushes, the wind picked up, knocking twigs up and logs down. Leaves swooped by, tangling in the three girls' hair. Brustling disturbances on the ground made the terrain feel as though it was always shifting. The night sky felt out of place. But Jaivva took front as though she knew the way out.

"Keep an eye on the ground for monsters!" Commanded Kiki in the lead, "And be careful of the Shaman-looking guy"!

Vanessa hanged in the rear, watching out for any rear attacks and to be sure they weren't being zigzagged to the tea party again. Periodically she'd check on everybody else to ensure she wasn't getting left behind.

The ground was alarming. There was always some type of movement that caught Vanessa's attention. Like a log that fell nearby. At first, she thought it was a creature. A closer look revealed it was just a log. A snout snapped straight at Vanessa's ankles, strangling her thought process.
