Chapter 6
The Fight & Escape!
Wolf cave
Alex's P.O.V.
Ok I will admit this wolf is super tough. But hopefully not good enough to beat me, hopefully.
He backed off a bit and bared his teeth. We have been going back and forth like this for at least twenty minutes. After the first time he backed off, I learned to keep my guard up. Now it seems that was a good thing as he growled and tried to pounce on me. I ducked and slashed at him. As soon as he landed I turned to face him. It seemed like he was limping slightly. I smiled. I hit him! It seems I let my guard down just enough for him to slip in a razor-sharp claw as he hit my chest and scratched along it.
OW! It felt like a sword cut and a burn at the same time. I could feel something sapping my strength. Poisoned! Great, Just great.
I swear I saw him smile as he pounced again. I dodged and slashed as well but without the same satisfying results as last time. I shook out my arms, I could tell they were getting slower. Sadly, so could the wolf.
We kept going back and forth until I could barely keep standing, much less keep my swords up. The wolf kept coming closer each time, now he is only about three or four feet ahead of me. I could hear Mel and Austin yelling my name. This is it. I thought. This is where I die.
NO! It is not!Another voice said in m mind.
Great Poisoned and delusional, what next?
We are not delusional! Nor are we going to die!
You know? I wonder who my last companion is? OOH! Maybe I should name him Bob!
No. Just no. My name I not Bob, Wait? Why are we talking about my name?! FIGHT BACK ALREADY!
That seemed to get me to move. I swung my sword and managed to cut the wolf on the shoulder. But at that moment my body seemed to start shutting down and I fell to my knees. The wolf, who had backed up at my blow, started towards me again.
Right then there was a flash of light and the wolf was laying down, dead. I looked up to see an extremely familiar woman standing in the midst of all the light.
"Nobody kills my boys!" She yelled at the wolf. Then she turned to face me and bent down to touch the wound on my chest. It immediately started to feel better. "There, that should help." She said. She looked up into my eyes. "I wish I could stay, I am so sorry."
I looked at her, confused. "Why would you be sorry, miss?" I asked her. The lighted dimmed a bit, I could tell I said something wrong; the only problem was I did not know what it was.
She stood up. "I wish you luck, my son." Then it all clicked.
"Mom?" She disappeared and the darkness took me.
Wolf Cave
Austin's P.O.V.
This fight had been going on for, like ever when I had a light bulb go on in my head. Looking at the head wolf's face, I could see that no matter who won he did not expect us to get out of this cave alive. That was when I started looking for routes of escape.
Time Skip
I was so focused on the escape route I did not notice Alex nearly get skewered until Mel gasped and yelled "KEEP YOUR GUARD UP ALEXANDER!" Oh wow, she is loud. Now very worried I kept looking, but the only thing I could see in this horde of wolves would be to get our weapons and fight our way out. A long-shot I know but the best one we have. I shook my head to rid myself of my dreary thoughts, and began to think of an idea to get those weapons.
Time Skip
Five minutes later and I still have no ideas, but I refuse to think that it is hopeless.
"ALEX!" Mel's scream pierced the air cutting off my train of thought. I looked up to see Alex on the floor and the wolf going in for the kill.
"No, No Alex!" I exclaimed. Then this blinding white light came out of nowhere. I turned to shield my eyes from the light, but noticed most of the wolves were looking at it. Now's my chance! I thought. I turned and made a dash for our weapons. I made it all the way with no one to stop me, I grabbed mine and Alex's and tossed Mel her's. She had the good sense not to look at the light either. "Here, catch!" I said.
"You get Alex! I will work our way out of here" I shouted, then I turned and went into the horde of wolves that have begun blinking now that the light has vanished.
(Time skip of about five minutes)
Mel's P.O.V.
I feel so stupid in retrospect! I mean how in Hades could I have even trusted a wolf whose name literally means lie!? So I state again, STUPID! I feel like I let Alexander and Austin down. Stupid, stupid, stupid! A voice shook me out of my self-loathing.
"Mel! Mel! Is Alex okay?" It was Austin.
"Huh? What?" I looked up at Austin a little confused. "Alex? Oh he is fine. Unconscious, but fine." Austin nodded his head and looked out towards the dead wolves.
"Mel we need to get out of here. I may have killed all the ones in here but there are more coming. We. Need. To. Go."
I nodded slowly my mind beginning to work again. "Um let's see. . ." I looked around for an escape route. Nothing, well nothing but the door that angry vicious wolves would be coming into in about five minutes, but I did not count that. "I think I will have to shadow travel us out of here." I stated. Austin looked at me funny. "What?" I asked him.
"It's just. . . I thought only children of hades can do that."
"Hello! Daughter of the god of shadows! Here!"
"Oh well then, carry on." He said and I turned around grumbling.
Grabbing Austin's hand as well as Alex's shirt, I shadow traveled us as far away from the cave as possible.
The Underworld.
