Anya was having such a nice dream. There were fields for some reason, and she was frolicking in them. Not that she was the frolicking sort of girl, she'd always thought it rather frivolous and well, useless. But she was frolicking, for some reason, and it was surprisingly nice, the grass tickling her nose

It had happened an hour after he woke up and began his day. The shaking had nearly made him fall over, and he fell into a crouch to steady himself as the world rocked around him. He should have known better than to shut his eyes, for when he finally opened them and things had fallen into silence, he found himself in a strange new place.

Had he been taken to another time? The jungles were not familiar, but perhaps he had returned to where Ayla had come from. Glad to have his sword by his side, in the sheath attached safely to his hip as it always was, he stood and drew it.

No sounds were around him, so he began carefully moving forward, keeping a sharp eye on his surroundings. Something was amiss, something had happened, and he felt a level of danger he hadn't felt for months. He did not welcome that feeling back. Not when he was alone in a strange new place, and could not feel the power his sword used to have any more than he could the day before

She hadn't noticed Glenn until the dinosaur made that noise and moved, Anya'd been focussed on not being eaten, reaching for a rock on the ground behind her. When she did realise that someone was there to save it, it then took a few seconds to realise it was Glenn.

Relief at seeing him and the knowledge they were likely still on the island were outweighed by by the terror she felt. Still, she wasn't the type to run away in the face of fear. Well, not anymore anyway. Her fingers grasped the rock and she hefted it at the dino, hitting it on the head. And unfortunately bringing it's attention back to her.

Her, without any other weapons. "Oh no." She looked for another rock. She didn't see one.

It was then Glenn realized just how much Anya reminded him of the Queen he swore to protect, who was often stubborn in the face of all danger. There was no time at all to be nostalgic, however, as its anger toward him was about to be unleashed on the one it was staring at.

He did not have his armor, but that hardly mattered. He took the steps to go between Anya and the beast, and it let out a terrible roar. If it wasn't agitated before, it certainly was now. He had to wait, though, for that opening he needed. There were only a few spots the lizards seemed to be considered weak areas, and since he did not have Crono with his lightning, he would have to do it the hard way.

"Flee to the bushes, m'lady," he warned, just as the lizard let out another roar. He could see it was preparing to strike, and the sooner it was just him in the line of fire, the better.

Even as stubborn as she was, there were some times that Anya didn't need to be told something twice. "Thank you," she managed to get out as she backed away, and then ran to the bushes, tripping over a root and scrabbling the rest of the way as she didn't want to take her eyes off of what was happening.

Still, she at least managed to grab the nearby rocks, and a stout looking stick, ignoring her cuts and scrapes and the pain in her ankle. If she needed to attack this thing again, she would.
