They advanced on us. I held Jesse by the throat and back as far against the wall as possible.
"Way to hold back your temper, now they're going to kill us. Nice going little dhampire," Adrian said stepping closer to me. A clank echoed in the room, Adrian stepping on a metal wood poker thing.
"Nice," he said grateful. He picked it up and motioned it around in corny way.
"This isn't a Japanese movie just aim and stab if they come near."
"You got it." He held it in a defensive way. Something occurred to me at that moment.
"You can wield the elements. Why didn't you wield any-"
"They were using a weird kind of hold against me," he interrupted. "I couldn't use nay of my abilities."
Jesse tried to squirm out of my grip. MY hands tightened on his throat so that if I didn't let go within a few minutes he'd asphyxiate.
"Move even a fraction of a inch and ill kill you, unintentional or not," I threatened, he stiffened.
"Time to go," Adrian said. We inched towards the door each of the gang of moroi stepping back.
"Kill th-," Jesse tried to say but I tightened on his throat.
"Go," Adrian shouted. Finally, towards the door and almost towards freedom, I almost smiled. I would have if I didn't have Jesse clutched tight to my chest. He chocked gasping for air. Holding back as best as I could the urge to kill him I loosened my grip.
We made it out of the safe us, the moroi gang soon trailing after us eager to get Jesse back.
Why, I thought. We ran through the forest, unsure of which way we'd come but it didn't matter, as long as we were away from them. Fear wasn't what sent a chill down my back. The nausea was.Oh no.
"Adrian I think-" I was about to say. Just then, my grip on Jesse loosened and I fell to the ground, a striking blow knocking me out.
