Kayla had been ready to soothe and comfort Ayesha coming back to consciousness in a somewhat stressful situation, she had been prepared for terror and tears, but not the curses which caused her mouth to drop open! She was grateful for the shields the girl had brought into place with incredible quick thinking. She was all too aware of the ping and cracks of several sharp chips of rock which could easily have ripped into them as the behemoth of the Durfle Beast wheeled past. The vibrations feeling like they were about to turn her brain to mush to leak out of her half deafened ears! Of the beast itself she saw nothing, wedged facing away as she was in the narrow crevice, and sandwiched between the other two. Zaer's explanation came more quickly than hers, and it was all she could do to nod in agreement against the Light elf. She tried to give a comforting squeeze but found herself too tightly packed already to make that work, so she settled for a gentle nuzzle against the girl's neck.<br/><br/>In answer to Zaer's question she half twisted her head toward him, though his breath was at the back of her head in any case. "Company will be on us very quickly, expecting to finish off whatever is left. I guess we better get out of here as soon as we can. Lets get that shield down!". This was all true, but a further reason for escaping confinement was her growing terror of the enclosed space, which was returning with a vengeance now the initial outside peril had passed. It was also extremely clear to her how tight the three were together. She could clearly feel her breasts pressing against Ayesha, along with a generous helping of tummy and thigh. Whilst from behind she could feel Zaer's powerful chest against her back, and the way her behind was pressed against his thighs. His arm was across them both, and she wasn't sure if this was in protection, or instinctive, or something else. But their close proximity was suddenly an issue, and one which raised an odd feeling in the pit of her stomach. She shook her head, telling herself not to be so silly, and yet holding herself very still, so as not to brush against either elf more than required as a steady blush rose in her cheeks.<br/><br/>Kayla nodded at Ayesha and the shield winked out, allowing them to extract themselves from the nook. She drew a deep breath as she stumbled into the now spacious seeming tunnel, brushing dust out of her face and drawing Maelstrom. She glanced back down the tunnel, hearing the rumble fade away and hoping not to hear it again any time soon. They were near enough to the exit that they should make it without a second encounter as the monster completed it's deadly circuit. Turning back, she edged into the gloom, waiting for the lizardman attackers that she knew would be fast approaching. "Remember, magic won't have a lot of effect, so stick to your weapons and make sure they don't outflanks us" She finished just as the darkness began to glitter ahead, with at least a dozen sets of gleaming yellow eyes....
