anything.
"Isaac, stay close to me," Jenna shoved the Prince behind her.
The narrow corridor wasn't exactly to her advantage, but she would have
to make do. "We have to live through this, somehow."
"Jenna-"
"There's not time for talking, we're under attack," Jenna
snapped, ignoring further protests from Isaac. She drew her twin
katanas, ready to face the tidal wave of villagers that were coming
towards her and her charge.
The first few met an unlucky end at the edge of her blades, their
blood spilling onto the corridor floor. The rest of the mob got smart,
standing back farther than she dared to reach.
She wasn't aware that someone with them had a cross bow until she
heard a strangled cry behind her. She whirled around, to see Isaac,
lying on his side, a bolt in his throat. "My Prince!"
The next bolt caught her between the shoulder blades, and all
faded into darkness.
Once again, sorry for the short chapter. Only two more chapters to go,
and then it's over!
