I rolled my eyes. "Whatever," I muttered. I led him towards the trees, not making him go first for fear he'd loose sight of the trees again.

I covered my face with my left hand and followed behind, not up on her heels but close enough to reach my arm out and touch her.

"If you suddenly feel something, scream," I told him. "I'm sure there are any number of unfriendly things and if you suddenly disappear, I won't try to find you."

As previously mentioned, it was dark. The trees rose high into the sky, looking surprisingly not-scary. A bad smell hung in the air, resembling something like a rotting plant. They soon found the source; a rotting tree. Its branches hung limp, and the trunk looked very weak. A tangle of vines hung from one branch with rotten leaves hanging from the ends.
(( Spot check! ))

"I'm sorry, but I'm not here for comfort. That's what strippers are for." I stopped dead in my tracks.

Violet noticed that the vines twitched with excitement when she came near. The leaves resembled hands, edges slightly curled to look like fingers. To Vickas, they looked like any other vine.

"Vickas, wait!" I called. I backed up a few steps. Those plants weren't normal, but what were they?

I stopped walking and grasped my sword in both hands, waiting to see why she said to stop.

Violet remembered that the vines are a dangerous breed called assassin vines. They wait until their prey comes close, and then strangle them to death. This results in a very nice fertilizer for their host plant.

I took a few steps back, still holding my sword I still had no clue what was going on.

The assassin vine, its cover blown, shot its leafy hands towards Violet, trying to get a grip around her neck.
(( Roll initiative~ ))

I gasped, trying to duck out of the way.
