Dmitri pushed me out the window and on to the cold snowy ground. I tried to look back in but the window was to high up, I am hoping that he's ok but I have to make my way out of the complex walls before the rest of the Kenlas come after me. Just as I began to run away I hear thump and a groan, I swiftly turn around to see that Dmitri had boosted himself up on the water he was bending
"Why are you so eager to help me escape!"
"I'm not, I've just been waiting for an opportunity to get out of this hell."
Well I guess that's a good answer as any.
"I've studied the maps of this place for months, follow me!"
Of course Dmitri of all People was the one planning an escape and he didn't mind me using blood magic so that's a plus.
He lead me to the far west corner of the building.
"There are guard towers at the four corners and one in the middle so stay in the shadows."
We could both hear the snow crunching behind us, it was the search party. He gestures at the fence as if signaling me to go there, so I did. I arrived at the fence under the guard tower, it wasn't hard figuring it was near midnight. Then he started moving his hand up and the snow off the ground rose up, he quenched his fist and the snow turned to water and he slithered it towards me and sliced the fence open. As he started moving towards me I heard the yelling of the guards behind him, he gets up and starts running so that alerts the guard above us. I looked back and a ice spike was going straight towards him.
NO!
Silence
Nothing but the crisp cold breeze was in the air .
A spike had gone straight through his left
shoulder.
He was going to bleed out, there was no way he was going to live, but...but I couldn't just leave him, by now all of the snow around his limp body had turned red.
HEY!
I called out to him to no avail
The guards were about 30 feet away now, I have to do something quick and then I remembered.
I raise my hands up and attempt to patch the wound with blood magic because it was to big of a hole to just put pressure on. The snow turned to white again and it made a wrap around the wound and then froze, not what I expected but it works
He didn't get up, he wasn't unconscious just paralyzed from fear or pain or both,
