Nightmare Crawlers - 1x1 [Ƨнα∂σω Ƙιƨƨ x Redtie]

"Just a shadow," Madison willingly moved closer to Dimitri, looking back at the offending shape against the tree before looking back over at him with a quiet sigh, "it just..looks a bit more..solid?" she didn't really know how to describe it as she looked back over at him, figuring she was probably just going crazy out here.

[Ƨнα∂σω Ƙιƨƨ]

Dimitri slowly lifted his gaze to the tree, and nodded a little bit, before wrapping his arm around her. The way he wrapped his arm around her, his arm covered where her heart would be from behind. Just in case something sharp was thrown, it'd hit him, not her. He drew her close, and began walking, "Keep walking," was all he said.

[redtie]

Almost as soon as Dimitri had the thought about something sharp being thrown, a knife sailed from where the shadow was and stuck in a tree branch right above Madison's head. She of course let out a shriek/scream that could wind the dead and closed the slightly space between her and Dimitri, clutching his shirt in a trembling hand as she shook, trying to calm her suddenly panting breath and racing heart and waiting for him to tell her whether or not to run although she would have bolted already normally.

[Ƨнα∂σω Ƙιƨƨ]

Dimitri instantly pulled Madison hard against himself, and looked back from where the knife was thrown, before he looked down at her, and wrapped his arms around her, "Are you okay?" he asked softly, looking around again as he continued to keep walking, and held her as close as he could. He didn't know who, or where it was, so he didn't tell her to run. There was an off chance he could send her straight into the arms of the thing trying to kill them. He didn't tell her to calm down this time.

[redtie]

Madison drew in a deep breath as she nodded, still shaking slightly as she started to walk with Dimitri, her eyes scanning the forest for whatever could have thrown the knife that might have very well killed her if it had been aimed just a few inches longer then it had. She kept herself as close as she could to Dimitri, taking comfort in the fact that at least wasn't alone out here with whatever was trying to kill them....or teasing them.

[Ƨнα∂σω Ƙιƨƨ]

Dimitri ran his hand down one of her arms, and gently took her hand in his as he walked with her, and turned his gaze ahead as he kept her close. He had no idea what had thrown the knife, and he was almost are he didn't want to meet it face to face. He didn't even know if the creatures around could be killed. He knew how to harm at least one.

[redtie]

Madison slowly began to relax after a moment when Dimitri ran his hand down one of her arms and took her hand in his, her eyes strayed over to the forest again, jumping slightly when she spotted the same shadow but on a tree in front of them, she looked over at Dimitri, taking a deep breath, if something did decide to throw that killing knife, she wouldn't exactly be able to dodge it in time, and it wasn't worth fretting over when there wasn't anything either of them could do but keep walking.

[Ƨнα∂σω Ƙιƨƨ]

Dimitri followed her gaze, and drew her closer, before he looked ahead again. He gently squeezed her hand, trying to assure her that everything would be alright. He was just worried about her getting hurt, she knew whatever it was in the forest was getting more and more dangerous. Now they were throwing knives. Great. Just great.

[redtie]

Madison yelped when she felt something brush against her ankle, looking down she saw a still quivering knife, half impacted in the ground, the hilt actually touching her ankle, she quickly moved closer to Dimitri, looking ahead again as she started to walk, not letting herself panic and start running like she very much wanted to.

[Ƨнα∂σω Ƙιƨƨ]

Dimitri looked down at her when she yelped, and drew her closer. He silently continued to walk with her, cursing in Russian as he walked. He looked around for a moment, before he pulled her a little bit closer. He was seriously considering carrying ehr for a moment. But didnt.
