Still fully invisible and in contact with Kymani, Valtor yelled..Orea I have a plan but I'm going to need a windstorm
Sure, that's not a problem and won't take every breath left in me, she mumbled to herself.
Taking deep breaths, Orea stretched her arms to the sky, stopping the rains and created a windstorm..so what's your plan?
Distraction! He replied as he and Kymani began moving towards the creature, forming footprints on the muddy ground
Attempting to spew out more fire, the creature began to move around but Orea was quick to notice, oh no you don't!.. with her arms stretched towards it, she forced it back with the wind, causing the creature to struggle under her control while she also struggled to maintain her balance,.. you guys need to hurry up, she yelled, I can't hold it much longer
Both guys ran close to the monster, till they stood few metres in front of it,. Valtor glanced by his side,.. Kymani, you can let go now
Are you sure, he wondered,.. because once that thing sees you it'll try to attack
I'm sure, Valtor replied, and get away as far as you can
As Valtor became visible again, the creature began to struggle harder, opening up it's mouth to attack with fire but before it could,
Valtor raised both arms and hovered them around, forming a blaze of fire above the creature and then sent it down.
A 'boom' sound went out as the force of the fire coupled with the wind caused an explosion that forced them all to the ground with a bang
After a resulting smoke had settled,Kymani let out a cough as he tried to raise himself from the ground, while Valtor and Orea remained on the ground...is it dead?, he wondered as he got up, meeting a blackened carcase, with little flames still burning.
Heaving a sigh, he turned to inform the others,.. you guys, the plan worked, it's finally dead.
Are you guys okay?, he asked on noticing they remained on the ground
No!, they both chorused
If you use your powers for too long, it drains you, Valtor explained
Oh, Wow,.. Kymani exclaimed before noticing himself, speaking of powers, how do I get visible again?
Take deep breaths, Orea weakly responded
taking her advice, Kymani stared at his palms as they slowly became visible again, followed by the rest of him
Wow!, he seemed mind blown by everything he had seen.., okay so, we all have powers, invisibility, fire and..Orea what's yours exactly?
Instead of a reply, Orea began to cough seriously, while clinging to her chest and panting for air like she was out of breath
Hey, Valtor rushed to her side, are you okay
I.. don't..think so,..she shivered as she replied
You've caught a cold, Valtor concluded as he tried to help her up, on noticing she couldn't walk on her own, he decided to carry her himself, holding her from behind with one arm to keep her balanced and with another arm under her legs, he lifted her up
while Kymani continued to watch in silence.
She had her powers on the longest so it must've weakened her, Valtor explained as he began to move.
So where are you going now, Kymani wondered
We need to take her somewhere dry with a lot of fresh air, he replied, as he carried her farther into the bushes, away from the muddy ground and stuffed environment with Orea's arms wrapped around his neck, her head laying against his chest and Kymani following from behind.
Valtor lay her on dry ground under a tree and made a fire to keep her warm,.. it's okay now, you'll be fine, he stroked her cheek, causing her to smile a little.
In the next few minutes just as he said, she began to feel better
I'm tired, she complained as she sat up from the ground
I'm tired of being stuck here and fighting those things
That makes two of us, Valtor added from beside her
She turned to face him with frustration written all over her face, are we ever getting out of here alive?
We can and we will, Kymani suddenly joined in, you don't have to fight anymore, you have me now, he smiled
Valtor gazed at him confused,..so?
So,.. I can go invisible, he replied, once we all make contact, we can just scurry past those monsters, there's no need to fight anymore
Sounds like a plan, Valtor agreed,...how come I didn't I think of that?
Kymani smirked, I'm just glad we at least have powers to defend ourselves
Yeah but that's not normal, we're not normal, Orea spoke up, we weren't born with these abilities.
Valtor glanced at her, you had another vision?
No,..but I was thinking, if I had my powers from the very beginning, I would've at least tried to defend myself while I was dragged away from home
Wait..we were dragged away from home? Kymani cut in
I believe so, Orea responded plus if all humans were born with powers the people I saw in my vision would have fought back too.
I guess so, Valtor mumbled as he pondered on what she said
By the way Valtor, she turned to speak to him but ended up breaking into laughter instead
What? he wondered
Nothing, you just..., you look terrible, she chuckled
Valtor stared at his arms, he had traces of soot and mud all over, he could imagine some got on his face too, and his hair stuck everywhere
This is what happens when you work with fire, he defended as he smoothened his hair
Yeah, sorry for laughing, she apologized
It's okay,.. though you still look surprisingly good after all that messy fight
It's my other superpower, she joked, causing him to smile,...I was going to say thanks for warming me up, she added
You're welcome, he smiled again while Kymani sat watching.
