This new development was unexpected and far beyond the monster's capacity to process. What had been a quick and helpless snack was suddenly a formidable opponent. He didn't even have time to teleport out of harms way before his dinner had him in its grasp and was carrying him high above the mansion. He felt strangely weak, like his energy was draining, and he had to struggle physically when he found that in the food's hands he couldn't even muster the energy to teleport now. He trashed and gnashed his teeth and whipping his tail around, landing ineffectual blows where he could and just trying to get free.
