Things were going rather great for Guybert. He had just gotten a promotion at work, his girlfriend (now fiancee) had accepted his marriage proposal at their third anniversary dinner, and he'd gotten a sweet deal on his new all-terrain hovercar. So, of course, he and the soon-to-be-missus were going on a little off-road adventure through the Gizard Wastelands. Sure, there weren't many roads, and the few that were there were beaten-dirt tracks through wilderness and brush that often had potholes as wide as a person and a half-a-meter deep... but without any wheels, that wasn't a problem! Yes, truly nothing could have gone wrong for the well-built, handsome young man...
Except, maybe for a great, stone hand with sharp claws reaching down and plucking up his hovercar up from the ground. The thing went crazy, realizing that the ground was getting farther away without the hover height being increased, and then suddenly there WAS no ground on its sensors as the car was flipped upside down. Thankfully, Guybert and Gee Eff were wearing their seat-belts! They were not, however, wearing ear protection. This was rather important, as a voice rumbled so loud outside the windows that it made the glass rattle...
"What is this little thing?"
Guybert opened his eyes and uncovered his ears after a moment... and slowly, SLOWLY, he turned to look in the direction of the noise. He saw a giant eye STARING right at him, with a slit-shaped iris that narrowed as he moved.
"A metal carriage, with no beasts to pull it?"
The great hand that held the hovercar, all pebbly and stone-coarse, sloooooowly lowered the car back down to the ground, after righting it. All of the blaring sensors stopped making noise as ground was once more below it and the car could once more hover at its set height above the ground. Without thinking, Guybert SLAMMED his foot on the pedal and tried to accelerate away! The engine whined and whizzed, and the machine jostled... but it didn't go anywhere. The hand was holding it too tight... And pushing it down to the ground... Before stopping and letting it rise back up to its preferred height.
"And it floats? Such wondrous sorcery... a fine treasure for the great Slayg..."
Once more the eye appeared, this time by Gee Eff's face in the passenger side window. The eye twinkled a bit... and the eyelids creased. A great smiling mouth was then raised next to the window and breathed hot air... which made the windows get all covered with condensation.
"Why, it even comes with a TASTY SNACK! HAHAHAHA!"
Guybert and Gee Eff screamed bloody murder, after double-checking that the car doors were locked. Wouldn't someone come and save them from the great, fat dragon between the rocky pillars?! Before he figured out how to open the car doors without damaging them? Or worse... uncaringly ripped them off?!
