The tiger growled low at the creature when it'd appear in front of her, raising its hackles to appear more threatening to it. Sky remained atop the tiger's back, pinching another origami within the folds of her coat. Her eyes set sharply on the creature, but her refined senses ever alert of the space around her always waiting for something to try to attack her again.
When the creature would beckon her to follow, she would watch for a moment before the tiger's paws began to carry them behind it, trailing cautiously along. She didn't trust anything in here, no matter its demeanor. She remained prepared for it to try to assault her.

The creature would lead Skylark for some time through the gloom, it's eyes providing some light for it. The monsters still watched and some soon began falling on the path behind the two. The creature leading Skylark gestured for her to hurry, and it started into a run, a portal opened up not far ahead. An open hand reached through and waited.
However, if Skylark were to look back she would see the type of monster she saw when she first entered the shadow realm. Only now there were a lot of them, they ran full speed at her, snarling and growling all the way. They picked up speed and if Skylark did not hurry she would be caught. The small humanoid jumped off the side of the path, abandoning Skylark for his own safety.
A voice shouted through the portal, "Hurry apprentice, the shadows gain on you!" Zed at this point had very well decided he liked this girl. She had marched through the shadow realm with confidence and almost no fear, soon she would learn to control it as he did. His arm reached more and he would yank Skylark through as soon as she grabbed hold.
Shadow people follow him everywhere he goes. Looking over his shoulder, the paranoia flows.
When the creature started to run, she'd press her hand on the tiger causing it to disappear beneath her returning to the tiger origami it once was. She'd race after the creature, drawing a horse origami to give her that extra boost of speed. Particularly at finding many of the other beasts racing after her. The speed boost would be enough to keep ahead, no doubt. Though unlike the tiger, it didn't last a particularly long time. She'd fuel it's potency with magic as she raced for the exit, then leapt to grab hold of the hand she saw reaching out for her.
Her grip wasn't particularly strong, but it was enough to keep her from being pulled back should something manage to grab hold. Her nimble, and quite fast frame springing from the shadows with Zed's assistance, and into whatever place he had pulled her..
Likely in front of the manor.
Sky looked back at where she had come from, and tucked the origami away back into the folds of her long coat.

Skylark had indeed appeared just in front of the manor, despite the length of her trip, she had reached Zed only a few seconds after he himself had appeared. "Well done apprentice, you have promise, you may not have been able to tell but no matter how long that trip seemed to you, it was only a few seconds here in the real world. Mind you the creatures of the shadow realm will learn to keep their distance in time." Zed said with confidence, most novices would have died deep in the shadows, never to return to Runeterra.
Zed looked down at her for a moment before looking to the horizon of the ocean, "We will make our way to the docks and set sail for Ionia, I would prefer if you avoided attention, but you will not be using the shadow realm this time." Zed commented, "It was a long shot for you to survive the first time without proper training, you might not be so lucky if we pushed it."
Zed had noticed her silence until now, unsure of what to make of it at the moment he himself made another portal and looked down into it. "Any questions?" He asked, still facing the darkness within the portal.

Sky would pull her hand back once she had left the realm, and remained silent. Her eyes flicked about briefly in search of someone - anyone who might see her. Clearly her being with Zed was not a good thing. She'd try not to make it obvious that she was searching for a way out.
Her gaze settled on Zed then, and let the silence remain. If she wasn't using the shadow realm - and he was - that might be an opportunity for her to run. She'd wait to see what he'd do.

Zed spoke yet again his voice carried great authority, "Do not try to escape, you will be part of my order or die, just as the general said. Remember I've been tracking you, you cannot run from your own shadow and as such you will die." Zed turned his head to stare at Skylark, his red gaze flickering for but a second.
I will wait for you at the dock, don't keep me waiting. As if to emphasize Zed's point Skylark's shadow tapped her foot, just enough to make her aware that she was being watched. "I do not wish for anyone to know I was here, keep quiet and avoid attention." With those last words Zed stepped into the portal, vanishing.
