Chapter 20: potions and slimes

"Nox, what happened while I was asleep" Asks Snide as he start to undress the human.

"That human come running into the cave and started to attack me while I was sitting at the fire." Says Nox putting more wood on the fire.

"Did he say anything?" Asks Snide finding more small viles in the gloves.

"All he said was get out, this is my cave now. I said, no this cave isn't yours and I grab the shield to protect myself." Says Nox placing 2 meat pieces above the fire.

"How long were you 2 were fighting?" Asks Snide counting 7 small viles, various colours. 2 green, 3 purple, 1 red and 1 blue.

"Not too long. He was swinging fast and hard, but this armor did protect me when i couldn't move the shield fast enough." Says Nox taking a drink of water from a pot.

"Good, we got to get more water." Says Snide as he drags the corpse out of the cave and into the forest and place it on the piles. Snide gets back into the cave, grabs 2 pots, spear and shield.

"Nox, grab 2 pots and a weapon." Says Snide as walks out of the cave again and wait at the marks for the pond. Snide sees Nox exiting the cave and walk to him with 2 pots and a dagger.

Snide turn and follow the marks to the pond with Nox behind him.

"I take it that purple potions are poison and blue potions are? Asks Snide as he steps over a puddle.

"yes purple potions are poison, while blue is resistance making weapons harder to penetrate your body." Says Nox walking around the puddle.

"I take it that you pour the purple potion over the weapon to able to poison the person when they get cut?" Asks Snide stepping over a fallen tree

"Yes, it doesn't need to be a deep cut." Says Nox climbing over the fallen tree.

They get to the pond, the pond has overflowed from the rain leaving no dry area.

"Nox keep watch while I full the pots." Says Snide rolling up his pyjama pants and taking the other 2 pots from Nox, while giving his weapons.

Snide start walking through the water to the edge of the pond. He bends down and full the pots 1 by 1. He moves back to Nox, carrying 2 pots. He places them down and get the other 2.

"Moving the pots back will be hard, so we will carry 1 each and return to carry the 2." Says Snide taking his weapons from Nox.

Nox takes 1 pot and start to back to cave, Snide sees her first problem, the fallen tree.

"Lets do this, we move all the pots on the other side of the log" Says Snide

"Ok" Says Nox as she walks back to the pond. Snide place the pots on the other side while waiting for Nox.

"She is taking too long." Thinks Snide, he starts to walk back to the pond. Snide gets back to the pond and sees Nox fighting against a blue and green slimes.

"Slimes, rain would make them more active." Thinks Snide as he rushes towards the fight. Snide readies his spear and thrust the spear into the blue slime. The spear misses its core.

"Nox come and get the shield and jump onto the slime." Says Snide, Nox turns, running to Snide and takes the shield. Nox jumps up and lands on the slime with the shield under her. The blue slime is still moving under the shield, while the green slime gets closer. Snide pulls Nox and the shield off the blue slime while jabbing the spear into the blue slime's core, killing it.

"Nox pour out the water from a pot and collect the slime in it." Says Snide as he blocks a tentacle from the green slime. Snide tries thrusting the spear at the core of the green slime, missing. The slime attacks again with a tentacle, Snide tries to block the attack, but is too slow. The tentacle lands on Snide's head, burning his hair and skin, making him blind in his left eye. Snide swings the spear, cutting the tentacle. Snide jumps onto the slime with the shield, squashing the core, killing the slime. Snide gets the other pot and empty it. He put the remains of the blue slime remains in it.

"Nox move everything to the fallen tree, while I heal myself." Says Snide walking back through the forest back to the cave.

Snide gets back to the cave. He gets a vile with green in it, uncorks it and drinks it, tasting the slime flavor. The burn marks leave his face and his vision in his left eye returns, but his hair doesn't return, leaving half his head hairless.

Snide walks out the cave and back into the forest to the fallen tree.

He gets to the fallen tree and sees Nox sitting on it. He picks the pots with slime in it and places it on the other side, he keeps the green slime pot with him and Nox takes a pot with water in it. They carry the pots to the cave and place them inside and do the same with the other water pot and blue slime pot.
