It was chasing him for several hours now, he didn't see it, but he knew about it. He did everything to loose it, he spent 2 hours flying, he ran for other 2, hid in the forests and it was still behind him, somewhere... just beyond the reach. He was getting tired by the running, but he was too afraid to face it. But now it was quickly getting to the point, where he had no other choice, but to stay and fight. Soon, he would be too tired to defend himself.
He stopped at a large clearing with opened space all around him. He knew, that it was only a matter of time, sooner or later the other gems would find him. Yet somehow he felt he would have more time before that. Turning around he was nervously watching around him. It was there... somewhere, waiting... stalking, taking it's time...
And then it happened so fast. Some weird snake-like creature attacked him from the ground. He just barely had time to jump aside. Was it under the ground the entire time? Was that the reason he haven't seen it?! He spread his fire wings, trying to get away, but it attacked him before he could gain some altitude.
"I don't want to fight you! Leave me alone!" he yelled.
But it didn't react in any way. It wasn't behaving as other gems he met... this was more like a wild animal... but it was clearly a gem. There was no time to think, it was attacking and he needed all his agility to dodge it's attacks.
"You are leaving me no choice!"
His voice sounded desperate. Before he could do anything else the monster attacked again, wrapping his long body around him in mid air. It was trying to squeeze him! A fiery lance appeared out of thin air in Chip's hand. With all his strength he stabbed the creature. It was not enough to defeat it, but it helped him get free. He could have stab it again, but he wasn't sure, he wanted to harm it even more. Unfortunately for him, the creature didn't hesitate for an instant. It hit him with it's massive weight and knocked him several meters away. Before he could stand up it was all around him again, immobilising him completely... there was nothing else he could do...
