The final Brave 

While Andrew was screaming for Nicholas to wake up, Brandon was screaming at the top of his lungs while being held in the mighty claws of Lawrence! While being crushed in the hands of the monster, Brandon sword began to glow in a greenish hue, with eyes bleeding, blood oozing from ear to ear, he stabbed forward with what strength he had left! But to his horror, the second his sword touched those skelly claws, his sword shattered, and with its shattering, it in toe shattered Brandon hopes! With pressure ever increasing, Brandon dying voice, distorted in his pain, he yelled Run Andrew! Crunch was all that was heard! Lawrence then throws the corpse of Brandon to the right impaling it onto a rusty looking tree.

Andrew just stared dumbfoundedly at Brandon's corpse high up in the tree with blood oozing down the crevasse, he only woke up from his stupor when he heard Lawrence give another roar! Scared out of his mind he looked at the unconscious body of Nicholas and said I'm sorry! With that he turned to run!

In truth with his cat light eyes he should have been the one to go instead of Jason but was passed up instead. But why was he? That is a question he would have to ask himself later if he managed to escape this nightmare forest.

Andrew quickly used any and all skill that could be used to get a quick burst of speed to get as much distance as possible, but how could such skill used by one of so low rank do much in the face of such evil! He got maybe a few feet ahead before a big looming claw came from behind him! Feeling that something was about to tear his backside a new one, Andrew quickly stomped on the ground creating a small amount of veins like cracks onto the floor, with that he pushed himself forward barely avoiding being completely torn apart but he didn't escape completely uninjured! No, for the tips of the claws managed to shape themselves into his skin canvas! Ignoring the pain and the feeling of wetness on his back he quickly made quick turns here and there hoping that would at least slow down a monster of that size! But to his surprise it was like the tree themselves parted for the monster! Cursing to himself Andrew turned to face the monster, with sword glowing red he trusted it forward, but not at the monster, instead he trusted it to a tree in front of him setting it on fire! A burst of flame covered Lawrence as his berserkly just ram through the tree completely ignoring the fire's existence! Cursing again in his final attempt to at least slow the monster down, Andrew could do nothing but watch as a now burning claw came close to his head! But just as it was about to remove his head it stopped for a second. Confused, Andrew didn't ask why the monster would suddenly stop! And not being dumb enough to find out why he quick tried to make his escape when the monster moved again! And this time it did not hesitate to tear away Andrew's sword arm! But in order for him to tear away his arm Lawrence had to position his body in an awkward way in which right after removing the son of man's arm he "fell" onto his back and let the flame cover him! While squirming on the floor and roaring as if he was seriously hurt. Andrew only stared for a second before the pain of his missing arm made him come back to reality that he needed medical attention now and not yesterday!

Seeing this as a chance to escape, Andrew took it and ran like the wind towards camp. While he was running away for his life a teal color goat came out of the shadows towards the burning Lawrence and said, that enough! Now get up! Lawrence quickly got up and doused the flames on his body, he was of course uninjured even though he was covered in flames, for after all how can normal flames hurt a rank 2 creature, sure fire was a weakness but it needs to have the strength to back it up. Lanthios then said, good work Lawrence! Though your acting could use a bit more practice, if your opponent wasn't so weak and scared they could have easily seen through your act, in fact I would not be surprised that when he reports back about what happened, his higher ups will most likely find it strange.. But no matter what, everything is going according to plan! O Lawrence, before I forget, go back to that man they called Nicholas, you know the man you used your dream curse on when he fell unconscious. Ya… Break every one of his appendages, including his fingers, but don't kill him, we will need him later!

Run! Run! And continue to RUN! Was all in the mind of Andrew at this time. But as he ran he noticed he got slower, his vision started to blur, his limb felt heavier and heavier with each passing second. He got so bad he tripped several times while running, which only made his wound worse. He was slowly dying of blood loss, hell the only reason he even lasted this long was because warrior have a higher vitality than most coupled with the fact that he has some emergence bandages and minor potions, and sure people with his vocation losing limb is a daily occurrence so one would think that would have better stuff for such an event, however he lost most of it when the monster tore his back, for on his back pouch held all the important medical equipment. And the all sought after regeneration skill that all warriors strive to get, while only a few "lucky ones" can ever obtain it because such a skill requires one to consistently remove parts of their body and put it back with no pain sedatives for without the pain one could not "learn" the skill. At least that's how humans believed it to be so…

With blurry vision turning to fading consciousness, Andrew tripped for the last time and laid there on his back the pain making him wince. Again cursing to himself he said is this how I die? In the middle of a cursed forest! But just as he was closing his eyes, he saw what looked to be a big bug lady! And said ha I must really be dying if I saw the fairy queen here! Hahaha and with that the man lost consciousness.
