Chapter 5

KENT desperately tried to control his horse as its hind leg slipped into the hot spot. It stumbled, whinnying hoarsely, and finally managed to pull its leg out. Kent quickly got off and examined his horse's leg. He winced. The skin was almost all burned off.

Putting his hand on the horse's forehead and trying to soothe it, he led it to more solid land. That's when he heard a scream.

LYN watched as the shaman on the left raised his hand, getting ready to strike down hard with a Flux. Never thought it would end like this, she thought, laughing ironically, I'll at least take down one of them with me.

Being the quicker one, she brought her sword up into an arch and sliced up, feeling it going through skin, flesh and bone. The shaman screamed as a sword was shoved into his stomach and cut through him until it reached his windpipe. Then his scream was cut short.

She was beginning to feel burned because of the scorching hot temperature all around her. Her vision swirled as she watched the second shaman chant out the spell for Nosferatu. "At least, I'll be seeing Papa soon…"

As he began to bring down his hand for the spell, he suddenly looked as if he was tired. Lyn had no idea why until she saw a silver sword point that seemed to be growing out of his heart. He slumped to the side and closed his eyes for the last time.

Lyn's mind was dizzy with thoughts. Am I still alive? Who was that?

She fainted.

KENT saw Lyn strike the shaman on the left. He saw the other shaman, ready to kill the woman he loved, chanting the Nosferatu spell. Overcome with sudden urge, he ran as fast as his armor allowed him to, charging to the shaman and killing him in one blow.

He saw Lyn, disheveled and scared, on the ground, looking up as though she had already accepted her death. He watched as she slumped onto the ground, looking lifeless. "Oh my god…" he thought.

Slowly, he walked over to his lady's side. Her stomach area was stained with blood, and a small trickle of blood was already oozing down the side of her face. Her slender long legs were slightly burned, and her pretty face was smeared with blood and dirt.

"This can't be happening…I didn't even get to tell her…" Kent thought frantically, feeling her wrist for a pulse, any sign that his angel was still alive.

He found none.
