Chapter 21 – You got this

If he hadn’t seen their legs moving rapidly over the ground, he would have thought that the giant lizards barreling through the clearing could fly – they were moving that fast. Within seconds, they had traveled the length of a football field and collided with his army without hesitation. Now that he could see them closer – and with sunlight to boot – he could see that they were a mixture of brown-and-green mottled coloring, their formally upright frills on their head and backs tight against their bodies as they traveled. As his Jackalopes sped along the ground on an impact course, Milton was hopeful that they could inflict some damage on potentially vulnerable areas; their eyes, noses, and necks.

His hopes were dashed as the Jackalopes reached the lead lizard without retaliation, using their powerful hind legs to jump at the last moment to reach its neck. The accompanied snakes sprung off the heads of the antlered rabbits, flinging themselves upwards aiming for eyes and noses. The Quizard didn’t react until the last moment, ignoring the Jackalopes and snatching six of his snakes up in its mouth with a quick sweep of its jaw. Four of the snakes made it through – two landed on and bit its nose, and the other two reached the same eye, biting down and attaching themselves to an eyeball larger than their heads.

The Jackalopes fared quite a bit worse than their partners – upon impact with the lead Quizards’ neck, eight of them kamikaze’d and snapped their necks, rebounding from the thick skin and drawing a very small amount of blood. The other two impacted but didn’t do any damage, instead falling to the ground with stunned expressions on their cute bunny faces.

Loudly hissing in pain, the lead Quizard stomped in frustration at the snakes on its face, inadvertently squashing the stunned Jackalopes on the ground. Slamming its face on the ground, the giant lizard squashed and scraped the offending reptiles from it vulnerable nose and eye. Their mangled bodies joined the dead Jackalopes on the ground, just as his Pygmy Wolves arrived late to the party.

Since the Quizard still had its head down, and with a damaged and bleeding eye, the wolves took advantage and jumped using all six of their feet, landing on the back of the giant lizard. Biting and scratching at the thinner skin along its frills, Milton watched as they did some damage and caused it to hiss loudly in pain again. The Quizard, again frustrated at something it couldn’t reach with its hands, rolled to the side again and again in some sort of death roll, smearing his adorable purple wolves along the ground in bloody red streaks of wolf parts.

While this was all going down, the other Quizards ignored their comrade and rushed past the embattled giant lizard. They were moving so quickly down the tunnel that Milton had to rapidly switch his perspective from different sensor orbs to keep up. He
