Then she notices that Mimic seems to have spaced out. She waves a hand
in front of Mimic's face, getting no response. "Uh oh..."
Fortunately, this is because all of Mimic's attention is on the song,
to the point where he has actually detached his senses from his current
eyeballs, letting himself go blind for the moment.
The song pauses as the wooper begin their attack, but Mimic interrputs,
Sarah raises an eyebrow when she hears her double speaking in Wooper,
but when the circle begins singing again, she resumes her search for a
way out.
Mimic points
a thumb back the way they came.
One of the wooper hops out of the flock, and turns to face them.
With that, the circle opens, leaving a path leading directly away from
the lake. Sarah and company do not need to be told to run; they are
already outside the circle and gaining distance, with their new friend
following at a close distance, by the time Mimic restores his eyes and
follows.
TBC?
[Rob: not sure if you'd want Sarah to have one or not, but the post
seemed to write itself after the first few lines. We can ditch the
wooper easily if you don't want it.]
