Moonspear a little something to make me sweeter

"That's probably for the best," Alya agreed with a sage nod of her head; it wouldn't be any fun to see the monster and hero fight when one of them was so much bigger than the other. Now it was just between Wraen and Alya - and honestly, Alya loved all the roles equally - that was why she strived to be all three in her daily life.

For this game, however, she thought she'd let Wraen have the more aggressive role, so that she could set the pacing of their battle and decide how hard they were actually going to fight. It seemed only fair, since Wraen was obviously going to be softer than Alya was. Alya was the best.

"You can be the monster," she said to Wraen. "That means you get to hide, too. I'll count to tw-hundred, and you and Jar have to go hide somewhere - in your evil lair. Then I'll come and find you, and you have to keep me from tagging Jar. If I do tag him, then me and him will run back here, to base. If we get to base before you can tackle one of us, we win. That's when the game ends, and then we all switch roles."

She looked brightly between her two new friends, tail wagging in anticipation. "Ready?"

You can assume that Alya will start counting, if the two of them agree that they are ready.
