"Nooo!" I saw the crystal get stabbed through him. When it did happen, I ran towards the imposter that stabbed Jacob. He was a sandy haired kid, thin and had buff legs. He looked up when he heard the crunch of dirt. Behind him the orange and red fire still flared. He shot his hand and a blast of electricity, like a yellow snake shot out sending me backwards. I flew until I hit the tree holding up the hide out. The air was knocked out of me and I fell to the ground. Some kind of instinct made my hands pull back and curl behind. I pulled them forward, reavealing a sword of solid fire. It hardened, turning into a sword of red metal, maroon crystals, and orange fire. I then narrowed my eyes, and charged at the kid. "Ahh!" That was my battle cry. Not my best, but I was scared. I swung the blade narrowly missing the kid. He dodged, jumped, and summoned his weapon: a longsword. He sliced it at me sending a wave of eletricity at me. I deflected it, and slashed the kids arm. He was knocked back and his arm exploded into eletricity. He fell and dropped his longsword. Then he exploded into eletricity and disappeared. I looked around trying to find him but only seeing my own destruction. Most of the fire had been snuffed out, but a tree or two were still burning. All the trees were black and ashen. I turned to Chris. He was recovering, but slowly. I turned to Jacob. Or where Jacob was.
