Aveyar
Aveyar watched in shock as a man burst into the cave and killed two more of the scouts. He was startled as the man leaped next to him, and fell into a fighting stance. Aveyar nodded at him, and turned back to the fighting. He opened a pouch full of sharp glass dust. He tossed it into the air, and thrust it into the soldiers with Impact.
They shielded their faces, but still got cut. As they were hit by the glass he leaped into the middle of them,and thrust his sword into the heart of one of them. He spun kicking one and sticking his tail into the man. The Magic quickly entered his body as the man's lifeforce was sucked away. He turned to attack another, but a smokescreen shot up through the area.
He couldn't see. True, he could easily see in the dark, but smoke was different. He thrust outwards in all directions with Impact, and leaped into the air, propelling himself higher with Impact. He was running low on Magic, a radial blast of Impact that hard had taken a lot. But he couldn't let conserving Magic take priority over surviving. He waited for the smoke to clear. When it did, he was surprised to see only two solders remaining. And the woman was gone...
what is she up to?
No time to think about that now. He hurled himself down on top of one of the solders. He pinned it to the ground and thrust his tail into the man's flesh. He felt the Magic seeping into him. But the man wasn't dieing.
Aveyar cursed. The man must be a mage, and had mana.
He was knocked off by telekinesis, and a fireball crashed into him. He lept up, jumping away from the mage. He didn't have enough Magic to fight someone who used mana. Mana regenerated in people's bodies, and the spells the casted seemed to take less of it. They had a clear advantage over him as he was now.
Aveyar felt an overwhelming Echo, and collapsed to the floor. He could hardly think, the Echo reverberated to his core. He felt...something within him. It was like it was trying to tear free of him.
(-edit. I forgot to mention something.)
He cried out in pain, and the world began to grow dark around him. He saw more soldiers rushing in, swarming the room...too many...to count. He fell unconscious.
(if you guys are wondering what's with the Echos, their is a storyline reason for them. You'll find out later)
(edit reason: I forgot to mention the soldiers rushing in. Ulta DID send an army to attack. We seem to be taking a long time to kill the scouts, and they'd probably hear us)
