Ch.3
Blitz's POV
"A off to home we go it's a off to home we go with a shit load of books but we are no crooks it's off to home we go "sang Griss.
"Shut up" me and Kyle yelled simultaneously
"Oh you guys are too serious why are you two always so serious lighten up a bit" Griss yelled back. I was about to answer when I noticed it getting dark as rain clouds gathered.
"Shit we aren't going to make it before the mobs come out" I called to the others as they pulled out there weapons, Griss had his favourite enchanted gold sword and Kyle drew his favourite enchanted bow.
"Well looks like we're fighting home" Kyle called with a huge grin on his face. We began running across the plain slaughtering any mobs that came within 10 blocks, cresting the small hill we could see a our homes at the far end of the valley but slightly to the left of it on the edge of the nearby hills biome appeared to be a battle with explosions and arrows flying everywhere "someone's in trouble" I yelled pointing to the commotion over the roaring noise of wind and rain.
"Well let's give them a hand" Griss yelled running down the hill towards the fight.
As we arrived at the source of the commotion it did not look pretty there were at least 15 skeletons pelting a boulder with arrows as a girl popped up from behind it to launch a counter attack at the skeletons, she dropped 2 before one nailed her in the shoulder knocking her down behind the boulder. Kyle appeared enraged a charged out and began pelting the skeleton with arrows dropping three before either me or Griss could arrive at his side. Unfortunately that's when the skeletons turned on us launching a volley of arrows causing us to take cover behind another boulder, "I have an idea" I I shouted over the rain pulling a dark potion glass out of my jacket "Kyle I need you to shoot the bottle after I throw it then close your eyes tight and hit the deck" I yelled, Kyle just nodded. I yelled at the top of my lungs so the injured girl could hear "shut you eyes" as I threw the potion as far away as possible ducking down. I heard Kyle loose his arrow screaming die then a thump as he landed beside me and finally the sound of glass shattering and the screams of dying skeletons.
Kyle's POV
I looked over the boulder to see half the skeletons dead and the rest screaming and running in circles on fire yet it was still raining. I quickly rectified the situation of living skeletons with a few arrows then ran over to the boulder with the other two hot on my tail. As I rounded the boulder I had stone sword shoved at my throat. I threw up my hands dropping my bow and yelled "friend I'm a friend".
"Di-did you kill those skele ahhh!" she held her hand up to we're the arrow was sticking out.
"Blitz get over here she's wounded" I yelled. He ran up from behind me heading to help the wounded grey haired girl when she yelled at him
"No help her first a creeper got her"! She motioned behind her to a small girl wearing a ripped green hoody lying on her side away from them. At first I thought she had just been knocked unconscious until I saw her arm bent at a strange angle with blood seeping from somewhere on her arm.
"Shit" Blitz yelled running over to the unconscious girl pulling a healing potion from his jacket.
"Here let me help you with that I may not be as smart as blitz but I can patch up basic wounds" I said to the grey haired girl looking at her eyes they were black with the iris being a shade or two lighter than the pupil. She just nodded as I reached up to her shoulder "it isn't very deep so if I pull it out it shouldn't hit muscle" I said. I then quickly pulled the Arrow out of her shoulder as she yelled in pain "sorry, Blitz bandage" I called out as he finish ministering to the other girl.
Blitz threw me a bandage and said "I fixed her cuts and burns but I can't fix her arm here, we have to get to the lab".
"Okay" I yelled as I bandaged the other girls arm "Griss" I called.
He came running "what's wrong".
"Help Blitz carry the other girl to his lab" I said.
"No" Blitz called out "I got this I want you to grab one of those dead skeletons, I need another skeleton specimen preferable one not very burnt".
"What's your name" the girl asked me.
"I'm Kyle, the big one is Griss my brother and the mad scientist is Blitsten or Blitz as he prefers, what's your name" I asked her.
"St-Stella" she stuttered as she shivered.
I grabbed her hand and said "Stella your friend is hurt Blitz can help her if we get to his lab soon it's not far, would you like to stay with us, you could stay with me or one of the others at least until your friend gets better then you can go, or we could help you build a house near ours the more the merrier as my brother says, you'll be safe from mobs and we could easily help you or your friend if you get into trouble".
"I, I'll think about it" she answered.
