Rae hisses faintly as she gets her feet under her again, and quickly moves over to Jemma.
"Shhhh, quiet," she says urgently, placing a hand on the back of Jemma's, her gaze locked on the opening through which they'd just come.
The corridor shakes with every footfall of the creature, now right above them. Rae doesn't move, projecting silence and stillness and not-there-ness at it in the hopes that it won't know they've come this way.
An almighty crash comes from out of the darkness, as the beast leaps down the crumbled stonework, landing right where they had been mere moments before. And, through the gap, Rae is able to see what has been following them. She can see its horns, sharp and ruthless, its dark, mindless eyes, the thick matted fur on its head and broad shoulders, and the gigantic stone axe it wields in its hands.

She knows what it is, and where they are.
