A light music begins playing as the walls around you slide away revealing a system of pulleys and ropes. It didn't take a genius to realize what they were for as they were all just pulling away from the door. Considering the fact that the rest of the temple was in good condition, it was kind of strange that the ropes were struggling so much though. Since you didn't want the door to permanently close you began to walk towards the door in question to maybe help the tension. It was then that you realized that the temple was doing that on purpose as the ropes didn't even look as if they were connected to the stone block that was blocking your way. Once you made that discovery, the stone block dropped and the impact alone knocked you out.
Honestly, the impact didn't knock you out for that long but you couldn't tell if that was because the impact itself was weak or the fact that it felt like someone poured a bucket of warm, sticky water on top of you. You looked up and saw a figure that essentially dwarfed you in size and while you couldn't see it's expression you could tell it wasn't happy due to it's defensive stance. As soon as you got up, you tried to communicate with the figure but before you got a single word out, a titanic sized limb smacked you. You felt the wind quickly dry your skin as you careened through the air before crashing into what you assumed to be dirt. Your body hurt all around but it definitely wasn't the worst amount of pain that you experienced. The thing that was more painful to you was the sight of the figure casually making it's way towards you.
"Wait, please! Why are you attacking me?" You pleaded hoping the thing knew english. It probably didn't hear what you were saying as the same limb you saw before lifted above you and it was then that you realized that it took the shape of a paw. You turned around and began to run away but the paw was a lot faster than you as your face got buried into the dirt. You felt the pressure on your back increase slightly as you tried to escape. The pressure soon disappeared as you tried to get the dirt off your face and out of your mouth, once you did you noticed that the paw was taking you with it. Once you got to the top you noticed a familiar face, Tracker.
"Why did you destroy the temple?" He asked calmly.
"What?"
"Why, did you destroy the temple?" He stated slightly harsher.
"I don't know what you are talking about, honestly." He sighed before he turned his paw around, and you soon realized that he wasn't lying. Where the temple once stood, just higher than the trees surrounding it, was a large pile of rubble that stretched across the landscape. He turned his paw back to face him as you tried to come up with the words to explain. When you took too long, he took you off his paw before grabbing some tape from his pack and taping you to his tail, purposely placing you close to his butt.
"Why are you doing this?"
"Because I know for a fact that you destroyed the temple and you need to be punished somehow." You wanted to think about what punishment he was referring to but his tail was too busy swishing from side to side for you to concentrate on keeping your lunch. So the most you could hope for was that the tail wagging wasn't indicative of how he felt.
