Thread: From just my own problems, to both of ours.

As the smoke rose, Ally quickly rose to her feet, stumbling away from the circle as she waved her hand in front of her face. She coughed a few times, before her eyes widened in amazement. What on Earth did she do? She had no idea what she was looking at, and could only describe it as fascinating. But how'd she manage this? How'd she create smoke like this. With this sort of heavy stench? She hadn't added sulfur, or any ingredients that'd expel the same scent. She could've, but she didn't. She used different materials. Stronger ones. Something that wouldn't burn the small hut she'd borrowed, in the middle of a desert. In the book it stated Somewhere dry and warm is preferred. As is a secluded area. And so there she was. In a desert. Starting fires. But soon she saw a figure, inside the circle, starting to try to crawl out of it. Her eyes widened wide open as her mouth dropped. She backed away, hitting the wall behind her with a gasp. Then as the sound cut through the room, she winched lightly, holding a hand between the smoke and her eyes. She didn't see the smoke vanish, but then as she heard the creature pick up the chocolate she'd offered, she removed her hand, clashing her head back against the wall in shock at what she saw. Oh god... She murmured as she did, quickly setting the expensive glass' in place, eyeing over the creature. Then as it snarled at him, she winched a bit again, expecting the creature to leap out the circle, and just eat her. But it stopped. Had those instructions been true as well? Would he not be able to pass through? She listened intently, tilting her head a bit in wonder. For all it's strangeness, there was something.. Fetching, about the creature. And as the creature finished, she widened her eyes a bit in surprise at it's terms, blinking a few times. She then silently snarled, as she pushed off the wall. Big words from the creature, presumably trapped inside that circle, until a deal has been struck.. Considering all the other instructions from my Grandmother was right, I bet that one is as well.. Bet that's the only reason, why your still in there, and not feasting on my blood now, Zarekia? She started by stating, hiding pretty well, how terrified she was. But she was a decent woman, and she wasn't about to let him push her around. And I'm not a 'Sorceress'. I'm a Physicist.. Apparently.. My Grandmother was a Sorceress.. A.. Witch.. After all. She pondered with a gaze towards the ground, before gulping as she gazed towards the creature again, taking a few more steps towards him. I am a decent woman, and have absolutely no interest in.. Bending over for you, just to solve meager problems, as the ones I wanted to solve, in the first place.. She demanded, with a gulp as she gazed into the creatures eyes. N.. Now.. I.. Don't really know what I summoned you for.. I never even really expected this to.. Work.. But.. I guess all I wanted was some self confidence. So.. Power.. I want to see those who's abused my confidence, for my entire life.. Just to make them feel better in their horrible day to day life.. But you'll have to b.. Bring better terms th.. Then that. She demanded, as she cleared her throat. She was clearly scared shit-less, and knowing absolutely nothing about all this, would make her an easy target, to the treachery Incubi was known for. He could give the same demands, by simply twisting the words, into something she'd like to hear.
