Beyond the Shadows || LADS Sylus FanFiction

64.

You

I stare at the gigantic wanderer that is growling with low noice.

»Oh, fucking hell! I've never seen a wanderer this massive before!«

And I'm a hunter...

»Likewise...«

I'm still in Sylus arms and my body is shaking like hell.

»If this thing gets out...Many people will die!«

Sylus nods slowly.

»I know. But we won't let it.«

»I don't have my weapons on me!«

»Sweetie, you don't need them. You just stole the bastards and my powers, remember? Use it!«

Oh...He's right.

I almost forgot.

»Just to make that clear...I didn't steal it! You both still have them! I just borrowed some of it...«

Despite the terrifying and dangerous situation, Sylus smirks at me with admiration in his eyes.

»Right. Borrowed. Whatever, Kitten. We need to-«

The wanderer seems to have lost its patience completely and penetrates our ears with a big roar that lets the floor and wall around us shake with vibration.

»Okay, guess the smalltalk time is up!«

The wanderer kicks the wall and the hole becomes bigger.

Big enough for it to grab for us.

We both jump to the side and roll out of its reach, so Sylus stands on the left side of the massive arm and I stand on the right side.

»Use the shadows to shield you if it's necessary.«, Sylus instructs.

»Got it.«

I can still feel his power swirling inside of me.

»You can also use it to teleport. You know that, right?«

The wanderer pulls its arm back.

»I don't know if I can control it like that, yet.«

»Just tell them what you want, just like the attacks you did on Magnus before.«

I nod, but I'm not convinced, yet.

The wanderer attacks again, this time with both arms.

One for Sylus, one for me.

Sylus shields himself and pushes the arm away.

But I call the shadows to attack instead.

I mean, when would be a better time to try things out than now?

I order them to form into sharp blades and throw them into the arm before it hits me.

At least fifty razor sharp shadow blades fly out of my body and into the wanderer's flesh.

It roars, obviously in pain and shakes the arm violently.

»Wow, looks like my feisty little kitten prefers to go for the blow in offens instead of defense...«, Sylus comments with a mischivious smile on his face.

»I'm more of a violent hunter, that's true.«

He chuckels, then mirrors my attack before the wanderer attacks again.

The shaddow daggers land in its torso.

»Hey! Don't copy me!«, I tease him with a wide grin.

»I'm pretty sure you're the one who borrowed those powers from me...«

»Touché...«

We stop our little teasing banter when the wanderer slams itself completely through the wall now.

»Shit!«

I can't say more before the unharmed arm grabs me.

And this time it's successful.

»No!«

Before Sylus can react, the wanderer throws me up in the air, right through the ceiling.

»Teleport!«, Sylus screams, but everything's going to fast and I never did that before.

Fuck, this is going to hurt like hell...
