Between a Recues And A Hard Place

Chapter: #2 Eventually The Sun Might Rise

..-Herba's POV-..

"Ha! You'll have to be faster than that to hit me, Bean!" I say, easily dodging a blast of green fire and orange petals. We aren't actually fighting, I don't do that anymore. If I did I'd be dead.. Or whatever Kiera does to her victims.
Anyways! I dart to the side with a sneaky smirk and glance over at Bean, the last Dragni, while easily avoiding a string of vines from Robin. Everyone here had barely escaped Kiera's wrath, including the ones who loved her most. The soulis, aka "The Captain", who loved her hasn't spoken much since she nearly killed it. The ghost "Sliph", on the other hand...
He's gone.
No one knows where he went, he disappeared a couple days after Kiera supposedly killed Salsa. Fawn thinks Kiera captured him, though with how alert he was I really doubt that... And Chorus hasn't sang since his dog, Melody, went missing which is pretty sad. He has a nice voice.
Heh, hard to believe I've changed that much since-... Nevermind.
If I dwell on it I'll end up like chorus or The Captain. Sad and depressed, if that were to happen then who would take care of the new recruits? Squiggles? Nah, he'd buckle and let them do whatever. Which would be very bad if they'd been possessed or something. Yeah, she can do that. I've even heard that she can do any type of magic, fire, telepathy, earth, metal bending, and even more! Gods.. Her magic is endless... She can even speak without a mouth now. Guess that's a part of her-
"Oh sh-" I quickly dodge another line of fire from Bean before being fried, I should focus on training them and stop talking about this. "Good one!" I shout before darting to the side and silently seeming to phase into view next to Robin, knocking him over before doing the same to bean.
"But not good enough." I huffed, pulling on the collar of my sweater a bit while walking back in front of them.
"If you were in a fight with Kiera she would've already turned one of you to stone."
"But maybe-"
"No, she doesn't give mercy to anyone, including you or The Captain."

nd speak of Obitus, The Captain walked around a tree and into my view with it's emotionless expression tilted downwards with it's head. "You got that right.." It growled under it's breath, walking towards us. "She.. Won't let any of us live if they find where we are.." It's eyes flashed white from in the intensified shadow of it's large hat. I nodded before stepping out of it's way as it helped Robin and Bean up by using it's slim and lizardlike tail.
"We should move out soon."
