Chapter #7

Strapped in for the ride

    by: Exhibicator Author IconMail Icon
A gigantic set of fat, sausage-shaped fingers reach down towards you- no, towards the strap that holds this sandal to the pandaren's paw. A flick from one of these fingers reveals that this bundle of rope is no longer tied down, a minor issue that becomes deadly major when the rope falls directly towards you! Once more you raise your hands to hold the falling object back, but at a quarter of an inch high, a little sandal strap may as well be a chasm-spanning rope bridge, you have no chance of stopping it. The rope crackles as it sinks into a canyon created by the panda's pudgy big toe, grinding you into the sweat moistened surface! It is this soft surface that saves you, forming a wet barrier for you to sink in to as you grab a hold of the sandal's strap. This barrier rips at your back as you cling to the rope, hanging for dear life as it is hoisted high into the air by four plump fingers.

Your hands tingle with a lack of feeling, but this buzzing feeling quickly leaves your fingers, allowing you to feel the slightly frayed chinks in the rope. You hold fast, watching the wiggling fingers interlock, fan out, and pull this structure about as they work their magic on the sandal's strap. Your world is a never ending earthquake as you are tugged along with the strap back towards the toes. As much as you'd love to curl up and wait for this danger to pass, you've got to get this pandaren's attention somehow! The giant's green eyes glow, glaring at the growing knoll of a knot in their grasp. No matter how much you shout and beg to be noticed, these eyes do not look towards you. You're not even a speck to them... So why don't you change this? If you could get right up in their face, then you could at least become a speck. You'd have a chance of getting aid from this furry giant, and even a low percentage chance is better than the nothing you're left with right now! You watch the fingers tie this sandal up and wait for them to rise before moving closer, all the attention in the world is worth nothing if you're a crunchy little pancake, after all. Another megaton of force plops down inches from where you climb, but still out of your reach. The fear of being crushed doesn't hold you back as...

You have the following choices:

1. You manage to reach a finger!

*Pen*
2. The pandaren finishes tying the strap.

*Pen*
3. A rogue thumb comes too close...

*Pen* indicates the next chapter needs to be written.
