"Come at me," As those words exited my mouth, I hoped from the bottom of my heart that my next few actions would be deemed by the cartoon logic running this universe to be Cool enough to get me through this.

The Beast roared at me, Its muscular clawed arms holding on to two pillars near the center of the room, like a gymnast pulling themselves up, and with a swipe of its green-scaled head, the large Elephant trunk moved in my direction.

"Shit!" I ignored the purple Unicorn behind me and let my body and mind carry me through.

I am The Storm King, A King who is a Storm.

Those words repeated in my head like a mantra as I deftly ducked below the giant trunk and kicked off the ground, sending me forward and spraying golden coins behind me as I ran over the pile of treasure.

Every step I took got me closer and closer to the pillar that the monster was holding with its left claw.

A sputtering bolt of blue electricity passed by my head, striking the Beast and singing some of its scales.

ROAR!!!!!!!!

"Stop hitting it!" I yelled behind me, hoping the Unicorn could hear me as I ran closer to the beast.

Fizzlepop Berrytwist couldn't prepare for how wrong things have gotten.

From the location of the Artifact she was searching for already being hunted by an armed force of trained soldiers, to her almost getting killed by that Crocodile with the Arbalest on his back,

However, none of those compared to what she was dealing with now.

A Jungle Grootslang, in an enclosed space no less, and with no staircase in site to lead her out.

If this was a Desert Grootslang she might have had a chance, but against a Jungle Grootslang?

Fizzlepop didn't want to die...

She glared at the beast, her horn shaking with effort as sweat pulled at her brow, and with a yell of effort she fired.

A weak, sputtering, harmless bolt of electricity.

ROAR!!!!!!!!

"Stop hitting it!" The creature that fell down into the room with her yelled at her as he ran closer to the Grootlsang, and Fizzlepop decided to listen to him.

Not because he told her to, but because she doesn't want to get eaten by the giant Snake-Elephant.

"MOVE ASIDE!" Jason didn't have the time to wait for his soldiers to listen to him as he barreled through the stone tunnel, making his way to the camp outside.

His king needed him.

"Jason! The Unicorn managed to slip by," Nestor, the Old Crocodile started talking as soon as he spotted the captain of the Argonauts.

"I KNOW!" Jason yelled as he ran by the aging Lizard and grabbed the first spear he could see.
"THE KING IS IN TROUBLE! GET AS MANY SOLDIERS AS YOU CAN AND GET READY!" His voice boomed across the clearing the three Argo ships stayed at, causing the meandering soldiers to start moving in a buzz as they got ready.

But he didn't wait for them, Jason ran back into the Temple, down the stone corridor, his spear in hand and his mask on his face.

And as soon as he reached the treasure room, he threw the spear.
