From a distance, Emily observed Angel walking away from the group of people who had been trying to save the water tank. As Angel approached the injured eagle, Emily continued to watch. She watched her as she approached the eagle and tended to it. She was still watching when she saw a shadow slitehered on the ground and approached her from the back. When she saw what it was, at first, her body turned cold, and her phobia was acting out, but then a glint of defiance crossed her face, and a sly smile appeared at the corner of her lips.
Leoric was supporting the water tank while the chief engineer attempted to mend the broken side with a portable soldering machine. As he stood there, he happened to glance over at Emily, only to notice a crazed look on her face as she fixed her eyes on something. Following her gaze, his heart leaped into his throat as he spotted a cobra poised to strike at the oblivious Angel.
