Chapter 10 - Ambush!!
Teddy and I saw a flame in the distance. It kept flickering. It's getting bigger. BIGGER!! Suddenly we were surrounded by flames. Teddy pulled me to safety. We ran to the campsite to find it on fire. Tamers were fighting - Gorkas. They ambushed us. We ran to Zob's tent to await his command.
Zob was rubbing his head in frustration. "They did it. By George. Took us by surprise. Are we ready to fight?" This was it. I looked at everyone in the room. Zick and Elena were a bit scared, they can't hide it but stood firm. Lay, gave me an encouraging smile. Teddy took my hand. I knew there was a couple of things to do. But only one stood tall.
"Let's do this."
We rushed out. Dom energy firing everywhere. Elena, with her sharpened sword took down one Gorka with one quick swift of her blade. I smiled as I took down two Gorkas. I turned around. Lay was being followed by two Gorkas with a dagger.. "Look out Lay." I screamed. Lay turned around and took down the Gorkas with one quick blast. "Thanks kid." she said and ran away. I suppose that's the best praise I'll get from her.
Then it came. Dark Phantoms from all corners. I dodged their blasts and ran for cover. Teddy shot two dark phantoms but was submerged in red goo. "TEDDY!!" I screamed and shot the goo while dodging red blasts from the dark phantoms. I helped him up. "I guess we're even now." Teddy smiled. "I guess so too." We ran towards Zick who was single - handedly shooting five dark phantoms. I knew he wanted to get them himself but I know better. I shot two dark phantoms of his back and left the rest to him. He smiled at me and went back to shooting gorkas. We were doing well but as the number of Gorkas grew I knew we couldn't keep this up forever.
