He screamed.
Bullets rained down around him. He ignored them.
Death swirled around him, surrounding him at every side as he pushed through.
He screamed again, swinging his blade in a wide arch as he hacked his way to freedom.
These ones don't matter. CUT THROUGH!!!
He snarled as he heard Auron's words in his head.
He followed those words.
YOU WILL NOT ESCAPE FROM HERE!!! Another voice shrieked. YOU BELONG TO ME!!!
"That's what you think!" He roared back, breaking into a run as shadows blossomed before his eyes. "I'm going back and there's nothing you can do to stop me!"
WATCH ME!!!
An explosion erupted near him, hurling him forward through the air. Pain raced through every nerve in his body as he was slammed to the floor as if an invisible hand had picked him and crushed him.
Fighting back nausea, he rose to his feet and held up his sword as another invisible wave buffeted him. "You'll have to do better then that to keep me away!" He bellowed.
Gathering his energy, he responded to the attack in kind. There was an unearthly shriek as his brilliant lance of holy light pierced the darkness, sending flames to purge away the demons that were charging after him.
In that short flash of illumination, he caught a glimpse of a looming, jawed face set with massive sharpened teeth. It recoiled away from his power and his light, clawing in pain and rage with fiendishly large hands at the flames licking at its waist.
He smiled to himself, and gestured with a single hand. Instantly a shining, swirling portal opened in the hellish gloom, sending blasts of light that penetrated deep into the shadows.
It howled in helpless fury as the flames continued to surround it, caging it in.
He laughed, standing at the edge of the pounding vortex. "I'm going back!" He said over the howling wind. "I'm going back, Moloch, and there is absolutely nothing you can do to stop me! I'm going back, Moloch, and when I get back I swear that I will unmake you when I get there!"
I WILL FIGHT YOU, FAYTH-DREAM!!! It shrieked back. I SWEAR TO THE GODS THAT IN THE END I WILL KILL YOU AND ALL THOSE YOU LOVE!!!
"Big mistake!" He roared back, shaking his shimmering blade at his enemy. "You've just given me one more power, Moloch! I will fight you all the harder knowing her life is on the line!"
He laughed.
Bullets rained down all around him.
Bullets that pattered off his armor like water.
Water.
He was surrounded by water.
He grinned.
Stretched.
He was back.
Bullets rained down around him. He ignored them.
