½ EagleBrain ♥ Creeperdoodle ♥ Raven Dor ♥ Berry ♥ ½ Team House Elf Obviously, yes, obviously it wasn't the end of the world yet, though if the roof caved in then it might be the end of it for him. Shrugging it off for the time being, Zeke moved to sprint for the exit... only Daphne was right, his foot was an impediment. Despite it simply being a tightness that annoyed the hell out of him, somehow it was as if his foot was made of lead, it was difficult to move. Almost like it was numb and he had no control of it. He managed to limp though.
Falling behind Daphne - not because it was his intention - Zeke ducked his head, peering at the ground as he ran!hobbled. Fiery claws reached for him and tore at his pants, one snagging on his foot. Half tripping but managing not to face-plant in the dirt, Zeke used his arms to steady himself, cursing beneath his breath in the process.
Gaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!
Being slow, and being slowed further didn't work in his favour at all, and even with Daphne spurting water in his general direction it was all he could do to avoid the fiery blighters. Unfortunately for him, he couldn't avoid the demon that swooped from the roof and his face made direct contact with it. Claws dug into him and he could hear the roar that sounded like fire in his ears. What's more, he could feel it searing his neck and cheek, and all he could do was groan and thrash at it wildly, temporarily blinded by it's glow. Firelight was nice, staring into a furnace, not so much. He knew this now.
Shaking it and shielding his face, Zeke ambled forward, "Hey!" he managed to shout unable to say the other 'H' word he so needed. Help?
