Haunted House (Mikko)

The fur along your spine begins to rise and you feel a growl bubbling in your throat, you’re just about at your wits end in the place and you aren’t eager to be toyed with by whatever it is that’s lurking in here, you dash forward trying to save whatever it is that keeps calling out to you but you slam into something solid, furry and growling. You dodged out of the way of something whizzing past your ear, whatever you bumped into won't let you go without a fight, still you’re a seasoned fighter and you feel confident in your ability. You hear a tail scraping against the floor and leap into action. You’re really only aware of snippets of the fight. Your fangs meeting fur, the feelings of a wing hitting your face. Something squishy and leathery wrapping around your legs. The crunch of an exoskeleton beneath your paws. You remain tense as you strain to hear your opponent, all is silent and then - Crack! You feel pain blossom in your tail and roar in pain. You thrash about wildly, and it seems whatever was fighting had decided you weren’t worth the effort you hear whatever it is retreating, sliding further and further away from you. You remain tense for a moment longer and then suddenly an electric hum starts and you are thrown into light. You blink against the sudden light, wincing as the adrenaline starts to fade and your wound started throbbing, you curse your luck and turn to check your surroundings.
