Lead the way

Crouched on the floor, Ayanami covered her head as she prepared for the worst that could happen. 

"Do you want to live and get out of here alive?" 

She peeked through the narrow space created by her palms on her face when she heard those life-saving words.

With a nod of her head, she hoped the dragon would pause in its actions against her.

When she could see that the dragon had suspended its movements, she let out a breath of relief.

"What do you want?!" Ayanami questioned knowing there must be a catch to why she was trapped in the first place.

"Finally, you're showing less stupidity." Nix laughed at her answer.

'Raiken be on the guard.' Nix commanded and gave a nod. 

Reluctantly obeying, Raiken placed his talon on the ground. And snorted onto her once more to establish dominance.

Ayanami straightened her clothes and got her composure in check, ready to find some way out of her predicament.
