Chapter 16 - THE FIGHT

Chapter 16: [The Fight]**

Shen fought wildly, his energy balls scorching the battlefield.

**Kenya:** "Stop! You'll exhaust yourself!"

**Shen:** "It's fine. Sorry."

**Eliz:** "Where's the Captain? I don't see him."

**Ruke:** "Northwest of Perth."

**Shen:** "Then let's move."

**Ruke:** "Wait! We're just kids!"

**Shen:** "Kids? We took on an army *alone*."

**Kenya:** "Hey! We're a team!"

**Ruke:** "Fine. Let's go."

*Scene shifts*

The Arcane General lounged on a throne, a terrified king groveling before him.

**General:** "Perth's king? I'll claim your city—after killing you."

**King:** "Spare me! I'll help you conquer it!"

**General:** "I trust neither enemies nor traitors."

A laser pierced the king's heart.

**Arcane Knight:** "General! The Arcane Drifters are here!"

**General (smirking):** "Ah. Today's entertainment has arrived."
