Kel shrieked as three spidrens knocked down the remainder of the tent. She quickly got over her fear and started to fight the spidren. She jumped to the side and thrust her sword into the spidren's side. Alanna came in front and stabbed the dying spidren until it died.
As they finished off the second spidren, thirteen more poured into the clearing. Kel shrieked again as they came towards her.
Neal woke up to a familiar shriek. He fumbled with his breeches, grabbed his sword, and walked out of his tent. What he saw scared him. A little ways off, near what he recognized with horror was Kel and Alanna's tent, were about ten spidrens. On the ground in a bloody mess was more spidren bodies. Kel and Alanna appeared to be holding their own, but it looked like at any moment they would be taken over. Neal grabbed his sword and ran over to help them, not even thinking to fell his captain. He ran up to them and started to thrash at the spidrens with all his might.
"Neal!! Concentrate for a minute. If we want to defeat them, don't just hit, hit with aim. Mithros help us!" yelled Kel.
"Right, then," was his reply.
It went on like that for another three minutes before the end came.
Neal was fighting a spidren, he was just about to finish of his second one when he heard an atrocious noise. It was Kel, he turned his head and saw Kel screaming. Coming at her was a huge vine like substance or spidren web. Neal ran up to her and blocked the web. It wrapped around him, suffocating him. Kel looked in horror. He was dead. His face was pale, his eyes rolled back. Kel screamed in agony.
