At the moment, El is panicking, unable to hear anything outside the pounding of their own heart. They thrash around, free arm trying to strike the allogator anywhere they can. The pain in their other arm is overwhelming, however, and their strikes are weak.
In a flash, El feels intense heat beside them and sees before them a creature that looks like a wolf, but isn't a wolf, because it doesn't have fur. Its skin is dark and rough like stone, its eyes a glowing orange like molten rock. El doesn't know what it is, but it attacks the allogator head-on with a terrifying bite, and the allogator frees El's arm.
They jerk backwards, falling on their back, turning over and kicking their legs beneath them to run. They don't see Fox, but they know they have to get out of here, especially now that two monsters have shown up. Struggling to their feet, Eleftheria begins to run and gets up the bank but not much further. Their vision blurs; they can't even think for the pain that radiates from their right arm, overcoming them. In flashes, they are on their knees, then hands, then the ground, barely keeping conscious.
