Midnighters Book 2 aprox chapter 33, if Rex hadn't escaped.
He wasn't getting any closer.
We readied ourselves for another jump, I drew the light on the hordes of slithers and darklings, but got only the slowest.
Suddenly, a huge column of slithers pulled away from the group and made a giant curtain.
"What are they doing?" Jonathon wondered aloud. The slithers ducked below us , creating a living carpet.
We were starting to descend. Crap.
I played the light across the seething mass. The slithers moved like a flock of birds, dodging the blinding white light, as if they knew where I was going to move it next. I directed the light to where I thought we would land, the slithers dodged away even before I moved. Something was very wrong here.
We were descending, and I thought the slithers couldn't stop us. I was wrong. The edges flew up, surrounding us like a tornado, the ground where the flashlight hit was the eye of the storm. But in this tornado, the rules were a little shaky. The slithers around us drew in for an attack, but I couldn't direct the light on them, for then our only safe spot we be swarmed by slithers, but if I didn't, we would die anyway. And all the while, the darklings were getting away with Rex
I made my decision. I splashed the light across the hundreds of slithers around us, cutting easily through their ranks. Screams filled the air, but I couldn't get all of them. A jarring pain struck my back, and another on my elbow. I was surprised more didn't hit.
"Use the flare!"
"Oh right." I pulled explosiveness from my pocket, and tore it in half, crying its name. The air around us exploded with light, screams filling the air.
"Jeez. That sounds intense."
"Very."
WILL ADD MORE even if you hate it :P give me feedback pleeease! Don't be mean but I can take "constructive feedback" :P I know it's not perfect, but it's an alright start.
