~Kaida Orion POV~
Fear shot through me, sharp as any blade, Biat wasn't here. It was just us... me, Lupus, and the archer. The archer loosed an arrow, it flew true, slicing the air, but Han's hand shot up with inhuman speed and he caught it mid-flight, snapping the shaft in two with a grin.
"Try harder!" His voice dripped with mockery.
The ground trembled again and I realized with horror that his thrashing in the water was making the cavern more unstable, cracks raced across the ceiling, glowing faintly like veins of fire trapped in ice.
"Run!" the archer shouted, loosing another arrow, this one grazed Han's shoulder, but it only fueled his rage.
Lupus tried to push himself upright, his body trembling with effort. "Kaida, go."
I shook my head violently. "No! Not without you."
