"We are staying."I said to the girl I can see the rooms that the men searched through but there are entire sections of the school that haven't been explored yet.
"Something doesn't feel right, it isn't the fact that the man behind me is young, but why isn't he attacking me?
Why hasn't he reacted to my presence? or asking why the girl is even here?
The lights come back on but they quickly die again, they are going to be a problem if I find someone or something strong enough to hurt me.
"How are you feeling?" I ask the girl but the man behind me answers saying that he feels a lot better.
I don't say anything as we pass one of the rooms. "Can you remember what the men you fought looked like?" I ask him.
"Yeah they were a mixture of all ages, from old men to little kids, there were a few women but they didn't fight." his voice goes faint as if he was trying to remember something.
"Oh yeah, I think they were slaves that they captured before coming to the school." his voice sounds a little bit louder now that he remembers that piece of information.
"I know I saw some of the students and teachers among the group, but I didn't see a lot of them." he says but his voice is full of regret.
Great raiders, but what kind? I have no idea what I'm fighting are the men from another kingdom that are raiding because they were ordered?
Are they a bunch of desperate men who stole everything they needed and fell into the same trap that everyone else falls into?
Or are they Vikings or nomads that take whatever they can because they want to?
"You said that they had something that attacked you and your team?" I remind him of what he said earlier but I lift my hand and silently tell him to stay quiet.
I can feel it somethings is in the other room.
I slowly walk forward and the sounds of whimpering reach my ears, they are small almost as if someone was covering their mouths to remain silent, or they don't have the strength to scream anymore.
I can see a blond woman in her late twenties, next to her is a girl with long black hair, and in front of them is a girl with short brown hair their skin color varies just as much as their hair color.
I slowly move from one side of the hall to the other so that I can see if there are others in the room.
There are, I don't have to describe what's happening inside as anyone with a brain can imagine it clearly.
One of the women sees me and I place a finger on my lips and tell her to remain quiet.
I slowly draw my sword and quietly walk into the room, the men are too distracted to notice me but the rest of the women have their eyes on me.
The lights come back on and I can't decide if it's bad or good.
On the one hand, I now know that there were a lot more people here, on the other hand, they all knew that I was here and they are all looking at me.
I can see the smirks on the men's faces.
They all have a combination of red, brown, and blond hair. Vikings' I say to myself before the cone that I was going to kill stands up turns around and glares at me.
There is a reason why I am in the murder guild.
Before the man can say anything, I free one of my hands and poke both of the man's eyes out, the blood bursts from the sockets the moment that they pop.
His screams of pain mix with the roars of the others before they all charge at me.
'Run!" I scream as the three women try to escape while the invaders try to stop them from leaving the room.
Unfortunately for them, I left the limits of what Humans can do long ago so I'm able to force them all back long enough for them to the women to get away.
My help screen tells me that the rest of the guild is fighting whoever they found, there's no guarantee that the men that I'm dealing with are a part of the same group that they found.
Still, this means that I can't call for backup, so I have to improvise.
I have no other choice but to fight alone. I don't know why but my thoughts go back to that girl.
Even as the men pile on top of me and try to pierce me with their spears, even as they hit me with their hammers and shoot at me with their muskets.
I can't help but think about those green eyes and curly hair that look at me with eyes full of innocence.
The feeling of weightlessness takes over before I feel something force me onto the floor breaking it and breaking more of my armor.
Everything is silent now, I can feel my mouth opening on its own and I hear myself laughing louder and louder until my laughter sounds more like the voice of a monster than the voice of a man.
"Now, now, we can't have you breaking yet.' I hear my guild master say and I see the man standing among my would-be killers.
The guild master smiles viciously before the heads of several men fall on top of me.
"Get up." he orders me.
"I don't want to see you break, not yet at least. I want to see you break after you see her turn into something that you don't want her to become," he says to me while he forces one of the guns toward the ceiling.
The gun fires and the guild master forces the man holding it to turn his head, by hitting him with his own gun.
the sounds of something running toward us make me turn and I can see several men dressed in armor running towards the school and behind them is my guild.
I slowly rise to my feet and curse how weak I am, I can kill these men without the guild masters' help, but I was so focused on saving those three that I allowed myself to be injured.
