Mortal instruments

Chapter 4: Run

A long friend of the institute burst through the doors. "They've found us!" He screamed. "Who Mathew? Who found us?" The Professor asked worriedly. "The Raveners!" He yelled.

The Professor moved swiftly through the institute shutting and locking every door and window that lead to the outside. "Quickly everyone!" He told them. A loud explosion sounded from the outside. "GO TO THE TUNNEL!!" He screamed.

The tunnel in the library of the institute was built to transport anyone in the building in the event of an attack. James sprinted down the hallway with the others in tow when a massive demon crashed down from the roof in front of them.

This demon was humped with an armored body and insect like eyes. A blood red feeder dangled from its ugly head. James skidded to a halt and killed the demon with his stele. When they reached the library the demons were attempting to infiltrate the institute through the windows. Everyone quickly entered the tunnel without injury.

"Where is The Professor?" Isabella asked worriedly. A scream pierced the quiet of the tunnel. "We need to keep moving." James whispered as he moved to the head of the line.

Half way through the tunnel a explosion sliced through the silence among the group. James turned to see a light moving towards them. "Run......GO! MOVE!" He yelled at them. The group burst out into the crisp autumn air. They turned and watched in horror as their home and everything they know was burned to the ground.
