Echo got up, her claws were stuck deep in the ground. ~ Great ~ Echo thought as she pulled on it. Expecting resistance, she fell backwards on her butt as her claw simply shot out. She then noticed that she was in the desert, and that her claw was just stuck in sand.

Echo looked around to see Alex alseep nearby, his face dangerously close to the water at the center of the oasis. Walking toward him, Echo was making sure he didn't drown. She noticed the unconcious bob cat and her tamer. Both small in stature compared to Echo and Alex.

"It's kind of hot...Turn i'down..." Erik muttered a bit in his sleep before rolling over and planting his face in the sand. There was a blessed silence for a moment.

"Argh oh my god what the hell are we?!" Erik started to sputter and shout something incoherent through a mouthful of sand. He kicked Tesla's still form as he flailed about. She jerked awake and hissed slightly.

"Oh, god dammit. We're in the desert already and I haven't saved yet." Erik muttered to himself, thinking of his experiences with DaCre that were actually on a digital device.

" It's okay, as long as we stick together we should be fine! " Echo said to soothe him. After getting her memories, she was much cheerier, but thought the things she would've usually said. ~ Now shut up ya twit! It's a desert! There's an oasis! Take a drink if your thirsty! ~

Alex raised an eyebrow at Echo. Suprised but unconvinced with her new attitide.

Erik calmed down slightly, although he was slightly surprised at Alex and Echo, who he hadn't noticed earlier. They seemed slightly familiar, but Erik couldn't exactly place them in his memory.

Tesla growled slightly, still smarting from where she'd been kicked. She ignored it for the time being, slightly confused as well. Hadn't they been in a castle just moments earlier?

It had all gotten hazy around the staircase...

~This far in the middle of nowhere... no... there's two of them... its too ambitious...~ an unknown figure thought, observant of the pair in the desert.

It would seem quiet for several moments as they examined their surroundings, until what appeared as a wounded tamer broke through the waves of heat. This person seemed typical: red shirt and jeans, brown hair and blue eyes. A hardwire held in his left hand, he held his right hand over his left kidney, as he staggerred forward within their sight, and collapsed.

" Ummm..... is that a person? " Alex said to Echo, pointing a figure face down in the sand.

" Your right! You, bob cat, let's check it out, there could be many things hiding beneathe that sand that would be better to handle if we were together. " Echo began to walk towards the human. His shape and what he was wearing became more apparent as she came closer.

Tesla twitched slightly at being referred to offhandedly, but Erik was already at the newcomer's side, kneeling next to him.

Erik didn't seem to know what to do for a moment, then remembered something.

"Ah...You're going to have to move your hand. I need to see how bad it is," Erik said delicately, attempting to move his hand.

The human grunted as Erik pulled on his hand, as he forced himself to roll onto his back, before taking the hand away himself. Moving his hand slightly, blood began to fall over the top of his hand, pooling slowly out into the sand: it was a puncture wound.

"It missed... anything important..." he said, between grimmaces of pain, as he sat up slowly, holding the wound carefully. "Bandaging it... anything to clot it will work..."

" It? I knew there were giant sandworms! Quick everyone in the wa-"

" Alex.... I'm pretty sure a Sandworm doesn't make a cut wound on a tamer, I'm pretty sure they have teeth only on the inside. He would have had to be eaten for that to happen. " Echo explained this to Alex as calmly as possible.

~ What an idiot! A sandworm? Really? Next he's gonna say there are four eyed monkeys waiting for us to take a drink from the oasis to drown us inside! ~

Echo walked towards the tamer. " What is 'It'? And where is your partner? "

"It... 'it' was a simple blade wound, from the metal DaCre that killed my partner," the tamer explained. "Its... heartbreaking... but I had to do what I did to survive, which was brave this wound to deal the finishing blow... hard to explain, but my partner weakened it enough to allow me to kill it..."

It seemed a painful topic to reside on, even if he remained forcefully calm about it.

Erik paused for a brief moment, thinking that something was slightly odd about the boy's story, although he quickly dismissed it as nothing. He wasn't exactly sure what would happen to him if he lost Tesla. The thought of it gave him a vague feeling of dread.

Erik hadn't been thorough enough to have packed bandages, but he quickly took off his jacket and started tying the sleeves around the boy's waist. Erik figured he wouldn't exactly miss heavier clothing for awhile yet.

"Thank you..." the boy said, feeling the blood from the wound slow. He looked over at the four, seeing that he was in relatively good hands.

"This desert can be dangerous, but usually only at night..." the boy said, looking around the area. "A few miles north, there should be an abandoned quarry... it will be safer there than here; the worms hunt nocturnally...

Alex's jaw dropped then he gave a triumphant smile to the air above him. Then he stopped smiling and stuttered. " Wh'what! Gaint Worms! We gotta leave now! " Alex began to walk in one direction then turned to Echo. " Which way is north? "

Echo walked up to the tamer, and offered her hand. " I can carry you if you want, or fly you there if it makes things easier. "

Erik silently handed the boy off the Echo, then shouldered his pack and took one last look around him. Nothing but sand.

"I hope you're confident in the geography, because I'm sure not," Erik muttered under his breath.

"It might be nice if you could hurry up over there, it might be nice if we didn't have some kind of giant monsters after us for once," Erik said over his shoulder.

" Got it, I can actually carry two at a time if you want to come as well. Do you? " Echo queried. If she turned B, and Terra deranked to D, she could carry all of them.

She began to fap her wings with the tamer over her shoulder. As she levitated 4 feet off the ground, she extended a hand to Terra's Tamer. " What are your names again? We never have actually met except briefly at different events. Such as when Valeria first showed herself to us. "

"It's Erik and Tesla," Erik said, pointing at himself as he said his name. He looked doubtfully at Echo for a moment, then shook his head.

"We'll run," Erik sighed slightly. Tesla nodded slightly. In case there was a battle, Tesla would need to be at a higher rank in any case.

Echo nodded, picking up Alex over her other shoulder, and began to fly to the quarry North. Ten minutes later, she reached her destination, and went inside. Laying the tamer down, she instructed alex to take care of him. Echo then left the quarrym but stayed right outside it's entrance while flying into the air. She was keeping guard, and was looking out for Tesla and Erick for when they got close.

"Sorry about this..." the ex-tamer said, sitting against a wall of the quarry as Echo left Alex to watch over him. "I haven't felt this useless in a while..."

Giving a small series of coughs, he looked out the entrance to this old mine, towards Echo, as if vaguely wondering when the other pair would show up... it was a bored expression, of course, as there was not much to do, sitting wounded in a cave.

-------------------

As Erik and Tesla would make their way to the quarry on foot, they would notice a vibration in the sand, a slight serpentine-reverse indentation in the sand to the left of them.

"Do you feel that...?" Erik muttered slightly, feeling something...underneath him. He was about to dismiss it as nothing when he remembered what the boy had said about sandworms.

"You don't think..."

"Hurry," Tesla said, speeding up. "We're almost there."

To some slight degree of relief, or perhaps not, it was not a sandworm hiding below the surface. Rather, it was something more creative and versatile, that struck fear in a larger crowd than those who overread a certain series of books.

About fifteen feet in front of the pair, in a sudden movement, the head of a giant viper broke through the sand, quickly and eagerly turning its face towards the pair.

With a flick of its body, it brought from the shallow indentation, the rest of its body, or at least one rotation of it, around the pair, its size at least six feet in diameter.

"Who dares invade my territory..." this DaCre said, looking down at the pair with eyes of malice.

" What is that? That tamer did mention sandworms.... Maybe it's a baby sandworm! " Echo reasoned with herself, being corrupted by Alex's scared thoughts and the most likely delirious wounded tamer. She, during her look out, had seen the approaching Tesla and Erick, but they had stopped when a third shape appeared, this made Echo curious, so she decided to act.

Flying over the third shape, she was about 30 feet int he air. She didn't know if she was visible to Tesla or Erick, or the creature, but she needed to get closer to identify the creature.

"Uh...We're just...passing through," Erik said weakly, backing up. At this point, it wasn't the monster that scared him, it was the sudden appearance of one.

Tesla moved swiftly to his side. "Don't wait for him to make the first move," she muttered in Erik's ear. A vision of the wounded tamer flashed before his eyes as he began to channel energy into his wrist device.

"Such indecision in your voice... such cowardice makes me angry..." the snake hissed, looking down at the below pair. In response to its answer, the snake opened its mouth wide, and let forth a large amount of what was essentially knockout gas: pink in color, it came down in an amount that would quickly fill the area the snake encircled with this gas...

By the time the snake released the gas, Tesla had already ranked up and begun to move. She lifted Erik over her shoulder and retreated a fair distance back; far enough so that Erik would be somewhat safe from any further attacks. She put him down and focused for a moment, then formed a crackling wall of electricity between them and where the gas would reach if it came any closer.

"Ah... the cat has power..." the serpent said, looking at Tesla with an almost approving hiss. Tightening its muscles slightly, it looked down at them again. "Very well, then, human, I shall ask once more... why are you here..."

The snake seemed to relent, at that moment. A human was a curious sight... they always seemed to have some sort of reason for being on this side... if only he could express it properly...
