Stop, Woah, Back It Up! Now Let Me See Your Hips SWING!

Merrick was simply out exploring, sniffing around the musty mangroves for anything interesting. Since he was fairly new to this land, he thought it wise to learn everything that he could about it and that included the lands somewhat close to Elysium. What if he had to go on some fancy mission? Better to be prepared, right? Besides... maybe he could find something interesting to take back with him.

As the giant brute padded along the edge of the mangroves where the land hung out over the water, the earth gave way. Big paws scrambled at the bank, but it was no use. The purple marbled brute tipped backwards and went into the drink. His head went under and he was fully submerged for a moment before surfacing once more. A sputtering growl found its way out into the world, but that wasn't the only thing that was found...

Pain lanced through the dire brutes thigh and a powerful force drew him back underwater. Through the now silty water, Merrick could just make out the long, thick body of a snake. Fuck... Vaguely remembering a sloping bank before he'd fallen in, Merrick kicked towards it, surfacing now and again to draw in a deep breath of air before the snake pulled him under again.

Big paws found the bank and it took all of his might to pull himself upon it. The massive anaconda was quickly wrapping itself around his back half and Merrick grimaced as he felt the thing squeeze him tight. Teeth bit into what he could reach, but he couldn't get a good enough grip. Not with the loops of muscle wrapped around him. Fuck.
