Suddenly, I felt something cool coil around my ankle. I looked down to see some sort of brownish vine wrapped around it. Having a bad feeling about this, I reached down to take it off. The vine tightened, and with a great strength it started to pull my leg toward a group of bushes at the side of the road.
I scrambled to find somthing to hold onto, but I found I was unable to stop myself from being dragged off the road and into the bushes. Once within the bush, more vines wrapped around my arms and legs, and I was pulled toward a giant flower. As I neared it, the flower opened to reveal a gaping mouth with thorny teeth. A tongue came out of its throat and licked my chest, leaving behind sticky sap. "Fresh meat," it whispered in a high-pitch voice, and I began to scream in terror.
"Help! Somebody help!" I cried out in my shrill feminine voice, no trace of dignity left. "Help me! Somebody! Help! Save me! Please, someone!"
"No one to help," the flower whispered. "My meal you will be..."
"No!" I screamed, tears flowing down my cheeks. I struggled for all I was worth, but it was not nearly enough. The flower pulled me ever closer, its mouth opened wide...
"Incendere."
The plant burst into flames. Letting out a long scream, it withered and died. Pulling myself out of the dead vines, I turned to look at my savior.
