The creature was big, and it’s shoulders probably wouldn’t let it reach her. She saw James groan and Mara begin to say something, but was lost in the creature’s roar. Looking down at the creature’s legs, they were shaky and unbalanced. Bird legs were not suitable to carry all that weight probably. She remembered the plasma sword hidden in the red button, and an idea popped into her head. She shuffled around the perimeter of the room and stopped until she was one way or another facing the back of the creature, somehow going unnoticed. It was busy thrashing and turning about. I It seemed to have a blind space for everything underneath their shoulders. As she pressed the red button, it unsheathed like a lightsaber. Ichika took a breath, and poked, then hacked at the knees of the creature. According to a graphic novel she read, knees hold EVERYTHING up. And they’re VERY easy to break.

James and Mara started shooting at it, and Ari dashed past her, taking out the other leg. The monster fell to the ground and disappeared in a black cloud. "Well done my little ones " The voice came again. "Keep goiiiiiing!" Ari walked over to Ichika and grabbed her hand. "You're a smart kid" He said with a smile. "James, Mara are you two ok?" Mara holstered her gun and nodded. "We're fine. Can you tell us what exactly this is before we go?" Ari put his gun and sword back one there places. "Well, you already know its a Fear Trap. Long before society came in to being, the prominent species on earth was a race of creatures that fed off of fear. At first they didn't bother with 'stupid humans', sticking to scaring animals. But they learned that humans were more susceptible to fear than any other living thing. So they made these farms, now known as Fear Traps."
