The Dragon of Death
"What are you guys doing run!" Hearing Videl's shout the others were jolted awake as they started running for their lives.
The desperate cry cut through the chaos like a blade.
For a brief moment, everyone had been frozen by exhaustion. Their bodies were battered, their mana nearly depleted, and their minds strained from the endless pursuit through the cursed forest.
But Videl's voice snapped them back to reality.
"Move!" Natalia shouted.
"We can rest after we're alive!" Ruby added while helping one of the holy maidens maintain her footing.
The group immediately broke into a sprint.
Behind them, the endless sounds of undead filled the forest.
Clattering bones.
Growling monsters.
The shrill screams of corrupted beasts.
It sounded as though death itself had awakened and was marching after them.
Videl clenched her teeth as she forced her tired legs forward.
Just a little farther.
They had already escaped the main body of the undead army.
