                                 Their heart rate continued to increase as the sounds came closer and the shape of the ogres began to form from behind the trees,  the first to enter the clearing was the one Ogre on foot,  charging at them with his long sword and a buckler with spikes on it, converting it to an attack and defence weapon. 

An orc also popped in from Levi's end,  and just as Rava had said,  riding on a huge warg he had armed with heavy metal Armour

They both circled around the squad,  waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Noticing their prisoner was in the middle,  the Ogre on foot, charged and jumped right at her, ignoring the defensive wall around her.

The part of the circle he charged at scattered, as they weren't prepared for his attack, leaving an easy access to the girl and Kira,  but before he could connect,  Dru knocked her over to the side,  and she rolled away from his reach. The circle scattered completely, but somehow, kira and Mirabelle still remained in the center of the defence.

In a moment Kelvin looked at kira, who didn't seem to be present in the environment at all, it was like her mind was somewhere else entirely. Although he knew she hadn't recovered from the shock completely, he seriously needed her expertise with the augmented cross bow. They weren't strong enough to face the ogres on a good day, and now they had a man down.
Levi looked to Gaitan and Carina, being the biggest they had in the squad he ordered them to lead the counterattack. Gaitan immediately raised his axe and charged at the Orc with the club. While Carina ran for the other with the sword.

Gaitan swung the axe, right at the ogre, but the ogre set his mace to block it. He swung it in from that direction again a little lower this time, but the warg was a second quicker, jumping over to his rear, and kicked him from behind with the hind legs. Gaitan clattered on the ground like a sack of potatoes. Levi gave the second call to Mia and Marcus, to assist the other two. Carina was a having a bad day also as  she had to evade every move her opponent made.  Everything about her opponent was either sharp or pointed, and he moved with incredible speed for his size,  making it impossible for her to get a direct hit.  She parried a swing of his sword,  but would have gotten two fatal cuts were it not for her Armour. Her size and Gaitans was of no advantage to them as they were easily over powered and thrown to the dust.
