Tyler stumbled out of the cabin, her tentacles flailing wildly to disperse the smoke. Out of habit, she had held her hand close against her nose, but her new symbiote body breathes more through her skin. Even so, the light, heat and smoke had stunned her senses, causing her to crash against the boat side blindly.
Moving by touch and memory, Tyler made her way to the boat edge and jumped onto the pier, her senses coming back as she moves further from the burning flare. Not confident that Cynaith could be defeated so easily, Tyler decides to put more distance between them until help can arrive.
A sudden bark caught her attention, one of Cynaith's spawn had been waiting on the pier, blocking her route. Tyler once again reached out mentally, and felt a sort of mental barrier emanating from the spawn, probably given by Cynaith.
Having succeeded in taking control previously, Tyler was slightly more confident in her mental attack. She broke into a run, concentrating her mental command into her palm. As the spawn tried to bite, Tyler slammed her hand onto it's head, breaking the mental barrier and forcing her command into the spawn's mind.
Without breaking stride, Tyler vaulted over the spawn in the same motion, making her way towards the buildings by the Docks.
By the time Cynaith emerged from the burning cabin, the red lights and billowing smoke seemed to mirror her hellish rage. The damages were only superficial, but the blinding light had been painful, it'll take some time to recover.
Stumbling to the boat's edge, Cynaith could barely see her target as Tyler ran further into the darkness. On the pier, her spawn laid in a confused heap, trying to resolve the conflicting commands it received.
Artist's Note:
Looks like things aren't going well for Cynaith.
