Scarlet paid neither of the strangers any heed, continuing to pull Virgil along as they ducked beneath branched and slipped between thorn bushes. Goddamit.

(All of my characters are usually innocent. Cade is my one character that's actually different.)

"I can probably hide us in an illusion for a bit, but then I need to sleep." He says, panting as they run through the dark forest.

@blue_topaz

"Is there any way you can keep the illusion up while you're sleeping?" Scarlet dodged a low hanging branch, straining to see in the dark. Behind them, she could hear footsteps fast approaching.

@PuffPoff

Cade kept running after them, yelling for them to stop and face him. "You're not getting away, princess!" He shouted, panting slightly.

"I can." He said, following quickly behind scarlet. "It'll make anyone near me trapped in their worst fears though, so if you can endure that.."

@PuffPoff

"Nykidia if you get to her first, at least let me get a stab before she dies." Cade said between breaths, falling a bit behind Nykidia.

@blue_topaz

"I can handle it. Quick!" Scarlet pulled him around the trunk of a massive tree and through a maze of thorn bushes. Brambles scratched at her face, but she just kept on going, pulling him behind her.

"Climb." He whispered as he scrambled up a tall tree with large leaves. Once in a high place, they would be safer and safer means he could do his magic.

@PuffPoff

How the hell is Nykidia not out of breath? Cade asked himself as he kept running. Just ahead, he saw the princess and her friend climb one of the trees.

Virgil pushed his hands together as a hush fell over the forest, the utter silence broken only by the deafening roar of the chasers worst fears. He murmured something in a strange language as the people surrounding him, and himself were trapped in their own fears.

@PuffPoff

Something washed over him as he reached the base of the tree. For a split second he only saw darkness, then he heard a loud gunshot from behind him. There, only a few feet away from him, were the bodies of his family. His parents and his sisters, their faces shocked and soaked with blood. Cade felt himself choke up, unable to even make a noise. His cheeks were soaked with tears as he collapsed to the ground. Next to him there was another body, one he couldn't recognize. It was covered in blood as well, and the only recognizable feature was the two shocked hazel eyes that stared up at the sky. Cade didn't even know who it was, but he found himself sobbing even harder.

Scarlet went rigid, almost falling off her branch. Fractured images sped through her mind, the worst parts of her living nightmares pulled apart and stitched together.

She saw Alice, cackling, completely unbalanced as she drew a dagger all the way from her daughter's collarbone down to her belly button.

She saw herself tied down to her bed while Alice stuck her hand down her maid's throat, strangling her until she slumped to the floor, lifeless.

She saw her head being forced into a bucket filled to the brim with awful, crimson blood, choking and gasping for air until her mother yanked her back up again, her blonde hair now red.

She saw Alice with two chunks of raw flesh in her hands, biting into them like a mad dog.

All of these and more she saw on repeat, over and over again, paralyzing her.

@Shadow_Knight group

Nykidia watched Cade collapse. "Cade!" She yelled running over to him. "Cade! Snap out of it!"

(Would Nykidia be effected by this or is it only a one person at a time thing?)

@PuffPoff

It was Alice. She killed them all. He just knew it. Cade heard a voice nearby and without hesitation, he swung his knife at the person.
