Ridaan struck the bow once again, Rutuja saw the arrow carefully. Its edges were sharp and red. She observed as the arrow struck of one the guards of the dungeon. The instant the arrow struck the soldier, it transformed into a furious fire; and then again into an arrow, going through the soldier's body.
It took her a while to understand, that it was the fire that melted the metal armour of the soldiers, and later, the arrow pierced their skin.
They had almost approached the land. Drishika let out a sigh. The dungeon looked more like an old, small castle, only that it had no towers or fancy walls.
The chariot came to a halt. Bluebell jumped out at once. She drew the sword fastened to her waist out of its scabbard and set out in the direction of the enemies, gashing them with her sword.
"Isn't she a bit too old to be that active?" wondered Rutuja. Drishika smiled and nodded her head. "We've been transported into another world and her age is what amuses you?"
Ridaan untied the horses and climbed on one of them. "You must go look for the stone," he said and set off in the direction of the dungeon, striking the soldiers with his arrows.
"Ridaan, Ridaan," cried Drishika. But he was long gone, attacking the enemies with his arrow. "He's just a kid," said Drishika.
She stood near the horse and held its reins. "C'mon, Drish," said Rutuja. Drishika took a deep breath and kept her foot on the stirrup, in an attempt to climb on the horse. But she failed. After five or six failed attempts, she finally succeeded in surmounting the horse. Rutuja followed.
Rutuja removed her dagger and raised it as a soldier advanced towards them. She slashed his arm. "Nice shot," said Drishika as she pulled the reins of the horse. It picked up the pace.
