Ӝ Maybe under the M!A? (I still need to type up my reply to the ask brb)

the Fearling would laugh turning and lunging to take her down. He's after her heart after all. It and all the light within her. He's going to devour her bit by bit.

[guardianofbelief]

Colby's eyes widened in sheer revulsion, but her brow creased as the being's eyes shifted color slightly. She wrinkled her nose at the creature's breath, stepping back. She waved her pike in front of her, keeping it at bay.

Mostly made up of shadows, the creature reared up from the pike, reaching for her with clawed limbs.

"Be still so we may eat you, pet." it growled and leered, before slinking forward, pawing at her shadow, stealing it away.

[guardianofbelief]

Taste of fear? What did that mean? Colby wondered. Caught up in her thoughts, either the knife seemed to move super fast, or she was just slow. She hissed in pain as it skimmed the edge of her sleeve, leaving a deep cut. In response, she swung her pike in an arc, the lightning tip crackling, fizzing.

Her panic earned a deep purr from the cacophony and Jamie's head turned towards her before the pike struck. It hit him high in the chest and the creature shrieked in agony at the blow. Light seemed to return to the brown eyes and Jamie stared panting heavily,but his voice was still loud and many faceted.

That hurt witch... no more games. We will devour you now!

He reached for her, opening his mouth wider than should have been possible.

"No thanks," Colby quipped. "You seem a little old for toys anyway."

It threw the knife at her, and ducked in close to knock her off balance. It would have her as a meal or she'd be destroyed for meddling.

Colby gasped as the black spread, and wished she could control fire or lightning like Bryan. That would be useful. "Those look like dangerous toys," she commented weakly.

The thing screeched in hunger, rushing towards her to attack and hurt and feed. It wanted the light, to swallow and take and grow.

Colby widened her eyes, though whether it was from surprise or fear, she couldn't tell. She brought up another shield on her left arm's brace, and wielded her spear on her right. "That's new."

C͠ò̕͢m͏e̵̡͟ ̧̀͞a҉̵nd̨ ̷̸͠p̕ļay̴    Not-Jamie growled swinging the blade in an arc. It's shadows leaked from the metal and filling the air with streams of blackness. 

[guardianofbelief]

Colby's eyes widened as the shadows enveloped her shielded form. "I. Said. Get. BACK!" Her shield exploded, blowing back the shadows. She whipped out her spear, letting it extend fully, the tip crackling with purple energy. "If that's how you wanna play it, be my guest."

As the energy scattered in shards, so to did the shadows shrinking from the light. Jamie made and pained sound but he looked a bit brighter even as the shadows prepared for another attack. A twisted puppet on black strings the body turned raising a sword and dagger to attack her. 

[guardianofbelief]

Colby cried out as she rolled on her side, but expanded her shield to protect her entire body. "Get back!"
