Hidden in the darkness

Helpless Fire

"How did they find us?!" Nick yelled.
"Trolls have a great sense of smell but remember they're blind. We just have to hide our scent!" She told him. He took the table and the couch and blocked the doorway. Nick and Coral ran upstairs and light candles, sprayed mist, they did everything that they could to prevent the Trolls from catching their scent. "Come on we're faster than them, we can outrun them." Nick suggested. Coral shook her head and grabbed his arm. "Aaron and Alec will be here soon, I'm not leaving without them. Understand?!" She said. Nick sighed and nodded his head.
"We have to fight, if we do we might be able to win. Like you said we're faster and smarter!" She said. Nick smiled and was just waiting for them to knock down the door. They were going to have a lot of fun with this.
Three bangs later the door was down. "Here we go!" They both yelled.
The Trolls sniffed around wondering where they were.
Out of nowhere Coral and Nick each take on one Troll.
Coral takes a dagger she found on Aaron's table and tries to stab the Troll.
She wraps her legs around the Troll's waist, takes both hands and stabs him one time in the back.
The Troll lets out a roar and backs Coral into a wall.
Nick on the other hand found a bottle of Nile Acid on the healing bed.
He opens the cap and pours it on the Troll's head without hesitation.
The Troll screams just before he lands on the floor with no face and only half a head.
"NICK! I need... some help... before... this thing... kills me!" She tries to say.
Nick jumps on the Troll and takes whatever is left of the acid and splashes it onto the Troll.
It falls to the ground and is now dead, like the the other one.
Outside they hear another sound.
Coral takes the dagger and stands next to the wall.
The sound gets closer and closer.
Finally it arrives at the cave doors and she screams and almost stabs Alec in the neck.
"Woah, what did I do?" He asks.
She sighs drops the knife and hugs him.
"Sorry, but we were attacked by Trolls. I thought you and Aaron were more of them." She explained.
He pulls away from the hug and smiles.
"It's okay." He tells her.
Aaron walks in and looks at all of them.
"We have to leave now that they found us." He said.
They all nodded and left, leaving the precious hideout damaged and now, gone.
"Coral, are you okay?" Alec asked.
She didn't say anything, all she did was stop. "Coral?" Aaron asked.
Still nothing.
Then all of sudden something attacked her and Nick.
She screamed and realized that it was a tiger with it's eyes red as blood.
"VANESSA! STOP IT!" She screamed.
Aaron saw a figure behind a tree and went over to where it was.
He saw Vanessa controlling the animals, but she wasn't the same.
Her eyes were the color cyan and that meant she had to drink a 'controlling potion'.
Aaron didn't know what to do so he just ran away fighting the animals alongside Alec, Nick and Coral.
Once all the controlled animals are dead, Aaron walks over to where Vanessa was.
She was gone.
No trace left.
Just like that... gone
