"GUYS DONT GO THIS WAY!"
Dash in the opposite direction and see if the thing chases after Swaltz. If it tries to attack, Swaltz will throw his shoe at the monster.

Cyrus Thompson and Francis McStein
You decide to head towards the voice. If you hadn't already made your decision, one of the others' panicked yelling from behind you convinces you it's probably not the worst idea.
Kayla Lyptus
You stay back and let the others go first. The one that went back towards the mysterious figure comes running past you yelling warnings.
Swaltzer Rickenduffle
The thing lets out a hideous shriek and leaps at you. You let out a shriek of your own and start running. Fortunately, you seem to be a bit faster than the thing as it slithers after you. You shout out a warning as you pass one of the dream-people.
All Investigators
You can vaguely make out the shape of what looks like a human in the mist. As if that weren't creepy enough he's sort of... floating.
Swaltzer Rickenduffle
Though he's much, much, much, much better than what's behind you.
All Investigators
"Um... H-hello..." The shadowy figure seems to be looking past you, into the mist. "Sorry, uh... questions later, fighting now. Don't, uh, don't worry. That thing's not as scary as it looks. Uh. Well, so long as I'm here, anyway... So. Weapons, weapons... What sort of weapons do you guys want?"

All Investigators
The figure in the mist crouches down, drawing something on the ground. He seems to vibrate for a moment, then stands again. Several items come flying out of the mist.
Cyrus obtained strange battleaxe! Francis obtained strange longsword! Kayla obtained strange revolver! Swaltzer obtained strange rifle!
These weapons are all oddly light and strangely beautiful. They shimmer with a gentle, ethereal light. If it weren't so ridiculous, you would think they were forged from the mists themselves.
"These ephemeral weapons will be able to harm the beast," the figure says. "I'll, uh... do what I can to make sure you don't die. With magic. Unfortunately, this spell leaves me unable to fight back directly, so... good luck?"
You're reminded of the creature's presence as you hear the crawling noise growing louder. The figure extends a palm in that direction just as the beast emerges into full view.
Cyrus Thompson
What the Hell is that thing!? It's a... giant snake, but every single detail about it is wrong, absolutely wrong.
Cyrus loses 4 sanity.
Kayla Lyptus and Francis McStein
That giant snake is like something out of a nightmare. Wait, nightmare? You remind yourself it's just a dream. Just a dream... Just a dream...
Combat Start!
Round order: Kayla Lyptus (shooting), Swaltzer Rickenduffle (shooting), Unknown creature, Kayla Lyptus, Francis McStein, Cyrus Thompson, Swaltzer Rickenduffle
Combat: Each round, choose a target that you wish to parry (or choose not to parry - remember, a powerful attack can break your weapon) (exception: Cyrus and Killroy can choose their parry target at will - either make a list of those you'd want to parry or pick a specific target). Choose whether you're willing to give up your attack to dodge. Choose a target to attack (or targets, if you make multiple attacks) or an action to perform. Choose a location to move.
Note: in this fight, movement is only "further" or "closer" to the creature, as it's set in an open plain. Some battles will include maps, and you'll be able to choose where you wish to move.
The enemy will reach the party in 2 rounds at its current speed.
The party feels a strange force protecting them...

Kayla will parry as her first action, shoot the enemy's eyes as her second.

Parrying's a free action, you're just limited to one a round have to decide who you're going to use it on before the round starts.
...Except there's special rules about parrying with a gun. Kinda can't write it out now, but past me should've put it in the rules list.

Battleaxes are fun. I hope this thing's magical. Parry against the snake creature this turn if I can I guess. Seems pretty far away. Move closer towards it. Attack if possible. Willing to give up an attack for a dodge if I need to.
