Matilda out of breath from running from the woods after seeing the vines attack and trees surround Dickens and Caleb. Still crying from what she witnessed. In a moment of frustration she shouts to herself "I bet you're enjoying this Nyarlathotep" before composing herself. She starts to breathe deeply trying to think of her next move and if she should find Jimmy or to run to her car.
"Why did I sodding volunteer for this" she mutters to herself

**Squeak** **Squeak** Shadows of rats in the tall grass of the garden starts moving around. Small beady red eyes start to appear in the darker places around her. Rats, lots of rats, they all start pouring into the area and advancing towards her.

Seeing the rats advancing towards her, she starts to panic seeing the beady eyes on her. The squeaks are worse because she does not know how many there are.
Are they going to kill me she thinks before she tries to make a move towards the kitchen.

Seeing the rats run towards her she tries to flee into the kitchen, she feels some of the rats fling themselves at her and the bites on her leg and ankles. She lets out a short shriek in pain.
She hears a screeching noise close by, she thinks she is hearing things before she feels one in her hair, she tries to get it out of her hair before managing to get into the kitchen.

Dickens yells back to Caleb "I'm here!" And dashes into the glade, only to have it seal shut behind him. As the thing pulls itself from the ground, he's transfixed. Locked in place by the sight. His hands, still holding the rake, begin to shake. His whole body begins to shake and his eyes god and roll n his head and screams,,,, "AAAaarrrrhhhggggg!!" And brandishes the rake and runs at the creature, flailing wildly with his improvised weapon, attacking without though. [melee attack I'm guessing. He'll keep attacking until the rake breaks, then he'll use his hands. Hoping oocly that his lucky charm helps keep him alive  ] |

Arthur is insane, lashing out at everything around him ... mostly the trees. He goes at it with his garden rake, hacking into them, screaming the entire while, completely oblivious to anything else happening around him, screaming "In the nameless onen's name, get ye gone you great bloody goon" then screams some more!

Caleb produces an ornate blade ,seemingly from thin air. He is sure Dickens is deep in whatever malady has over come him and wouldn't see the blade appear.
Testing the weight of his blade he grins and slashes at the man made of leaves. The smile soon slips from his face as his blade seems to pass harmlessly through the swirling mass of plantlife.
'By the Stag! What damned creature is this that doesn't feel the touch of 'An Bas'?'
Caleb pulls his revolver and steadied his aim,
'Maybe some hot lead will hurt you!'

Dickens is still lost in his own world, his eyes wide as he flails at the trees around them, swinging wildly, missing anything and spinning himself into a angry and frenzied diz.

Caleb takes aim at the green man stood before him and squeezes the trigger. The shot went wide, Caleb had to jerk his arm last minute as Arthur ran across his aim.
The bullet lodged harmlessly into a tree trunk behind the green man.
What was happening? Caleb couldn't land a hit, whilst distracted he misses the vine slipping across the ground towards him.

Dickens continues to flail madly at the trees with the rake. He stops attacking mid air for a moment, and actually manages to bury the rake within the branches and rip some awa part of the wall,, spraying the area around him with sticks and leaves.
As he attacks, he yells incoherently, but sometimes the words almost make sense ... Nameless One .. he smacks at a branch ... Hail Hastur ... he drags the rake through the wall, ripping it to pieces ... Hail Yellow King ... almost creating a void in the structure.

Dickens shakes himself out of his madness, and realises that Caleb is suffering at the hands of the Green Man. He redirects his attacks, smashing at the Avatar, but is thwarted when it dodges. He doesn't give up, though, doing minor damage with the rake, trying hard not to slip in the leaves, or fall over his own feet.
Caleb is doing far more damage, then Dickens falls, breaking the rake, and discovers the sharpened stick does far more damage to his friend's attacker.
Between them, they finally kill it, but it before Dickens is hurt, and Caleb injured further.
Dickens helps Caleb back to the house when it's all over.

The vine that had been slithering towards Caleb finally reached him. Much to his surprise as the sudden jerk from the vine sent his next shot wide by a mile.
The Green man's vine slammed Caleb hard against a tree nearly knocking the consciousness from him. Fearing he would pass out from the sharp burning pain in his right arm he takes aim and fires his revolver until the chamber is empty. He is happy with the tears and rips his bullets rend through the Green Man.
He can feel the creature sucking life from his body,
'Caleb ol'boy this don't look good!'
Thankfully Dickens seems to regain his senses and attacks the creature with renewed vigor.
As the creatures form collapses into nothing more than a heap of leaves and vines Caleb slumps to the ground, his Klaive hanging limp in his hand. He looks up to see where Dickens is and brushes his sweat drenched hair from his face.
He lets Dickens help him up and back to the house, only too glad to see the last of the woods.
'Holy shit! You alright Dickens?'
