Yell "Not worth it until I have a friend that knows what to do!", then head back inside.

[~Neri]

Cast Block, Yell, Head Inside.

[Worldmaster27]

((I'd also like to point out that the Push spell hadn't failed. It was a regular attack.))
Jon casts Block, but he doesn't complete it, resulting in a reduced effect. He moves to the inn door. It is closed.

The creature picks up speed, as if empowered by his prey's fear.

Burp at it! Cast push! Shout "Hey Mel, get your butt out here!"

((Methinks this is a nightmare.))

[~Neri]

Somehow magically vomit a laser.

[Worldmaster27]

((You magically vomit a laser. Turns out this was a hallucination and you killed Mel.))
Jon, in his fear, rushes the cast and it fails. His fear is so great that he can't do anything but babble incoherently.

The monster, feeding off Jon's fear, in nearly upon him.

Hug the monster! Tickle it!

We still have 11cp. This is obviously a dream.

Cheater. You changed it. D:

[~Neri]

*Slaps Jon in the face.*

GET AHOLD OF YOURSELF! GO INSIDE!

[Worldmaster27]

((Thank you for pointing that out. As a reward, I will do your suggestion...That's wierd. I hear Kevak screaming 'NOO!'))
Trying to convince himself that this is a dream, Jon reaches out, trying to touch the creature. As he does so, a bright light flares behind the monster. Moments later, an intense arcane fire is consuming the creature. Its howls of pain a deafening. Jon slumps against the wall in shock.
---VICTORY!---
Around the same time the fire halts, Vin appears.
You okay?

[~Neri]

... Ask what the hell happened?

[Lyeos]

"Guess it wasn't a nightmare caused by a new party member actually being evil. Thanks."

Unless he's trying to trick me.

Shake Vin's hand as a thank you.

Also ask if Vin did that, and if so, if he could teach you.

[Worldmaster27]

What...What was that!?
You take Vin's hand and stand back up.
Never heard of one? You must be new then. Almost everyone has at least heard of them. It was a construct, though 'zombie' is an accepted term for it. One of the undead. Made by those wicked, twisted sorcerers, those Necromancers.
And, that fire, flare, thing? Did you do that?
Yeah, I'm just glad that thing was one of the weaker constructs.
Great. Think you could teach me it?
Probably not. I'm a siege-archer, so a lot of my spells are focused around the bow. They're also focused around destroying things, but that's not exclusive to my stuff. Not to mention, I don't think I could cast another of those. The spell drains a lot out of you.
Okay, well. Thanks a ton. I probably owe you my life.
Vin shrugs.
Think nothing of it. We need to tell a guard or captain or something about this. It's bad.
Great.

[Lyeos]

Get Mel first.

((As a necromancer, I feel very offended by that.  ))

[Worldmaster27]

((Hey, it's not my fault Vin doesn't like necromancers.))
We should probably wake up Mel first. She'll want to know about this.
Okay. I'll see if I can find a guard or someone. The corpse might fall apart if we move it too much.
Going back to your room, you notice no one has stirred from the short combat just outside. It takes a few minutes to get Mel up and even when she does, she's too groggy to be much use in combat. Leading Mel outside, you sit near the charred corpse and wait for Vin to return with a guard.

[Lyeos]

Have a casual conversation with Mel, while keeping an eye on the corpse.

Of course, it has already been established that Mel has some level of attraction towards Jon. Maaakeoooouuut sessiiioooon?  ?
