(I've gotta go now but if you guys want to continue without me it's fine.)
Pete led Letha through the ruined doors and down a hall into the "throne room," blensing in with the hunters that were rushing to defend their base from Sirus. There less people inside then there had been when he first visited, but there were still three hunters in the back, guarding a door. "I think that the amulets are in there."
Letha nodded "Ok," she exhaled slowly as she threw one of her daggers, killing one of the hunters. She then stepped out into the open to face them, her other dagger held tightly in her hand.
Sirus took out hunters left and right, taking them down one by one as he used the same spell as before to track Skye,
(Sorry I was busy with my little sister)
(It's fine)
Letha watched as the other two hunters ran towards her, and a faint smile appeared on her face. She took out one hunter easily, turning to the other and throwing her other dagger. Taking them out too. She grabbed her daggers from the hunters and walked up to the door, slightly worried.
Sirus dashed down the hall hordes of hunters on his tail, he blasted through another gate and into an arena, there he saw skye, circling a tsunami halfblood, both were bloodied and the tsunami was badly injured.
Letha yanked opened the door and started whispering "You are free.." to each of the amulets, looking for Skye's as she did.
"Skye turned to see Sirus and fear flashed in his eyes. "No! not while im still under their control," tears came to his eyes as his body lept for Sirus,
Sirus dodged his attack taking him head on ina deadly dance of sword swipes, and manuevers, both in human and wolf forms.
Letha continued to search, frantic. She took a handful of amulets and set them all free, finally seeing Skye's a few feet away. She smiled and ran over, stopped right before she could grab it by a tall and muscular man "Can't let you have that missy.." the man said "Move." Letha hissed and grabbed her daggers "Now."
Sirus yelped as one of skyes flaming blades caught his arm, Sirus launched a shadow blast then a shield as Skye was forced to retailiate. Sirus Charged him going stronger than ever beforee doing his best to stay alive as he did so.
the man chuckled "I like your spirit girl, are you a halfblood?" Letha jumped towards the amulet and slashed at the man, getting her fingers around the chain. The man cursed as her blade cut his arm, yanking the other end of the chain before she could run with it. Letha glared at the man, spinning her dagger in her hand as she tried to pull the chain and amulet to herself.
Sirus yelled as he tried to withstand a head on blast from Skye. Just barely succeeding he dashed away using the shadows to hide as he caught his breath.
(Sorry had to wait for my mom to stop viciously checking rooms.)
(XD I know what you mean..)
"Give. Me. That. Amulet." Letha growled and yanked the amulet towards herself "Sorry miss.." The man shook his head and pulled back, grabbing a sword from his back. Letha's eyes widened at the sword and she pulled on the chain harder, causing it to snap. Letha scrambled for the amulet which had fallen to the floor and slashed the man in the leg as she rolled away.
(Amulets are mostly indestructable btw but I will let it slide since I havent figured out a couple of details just yet…)
Sirus gasped for breath as Skye attacked him head on Sirus dodged and retaliated but was gashed on the leg for his trouble but also managed to gash Skye.
"I'm sorry about this"said sirus as he grabbed skyes arm saying "Altras" and a band of Altras appeared on Skyes arm causing skyes aura to vanish giving Sirus a chance to slip away.
(Ok, I didn't know know they exactly worked, so I figured that having the chain snap was safe..)
The man roared in pain and he swiped his sword at her, slicing a gash in her back. Letha cried out and rolled away from him, holding the amulet in her hand. She ran out of the room and winced in pain with every step. Letha slipped her dagger back into her belt and glanced backwards, seeing the man chasing her and gaining.
(no worries. I actually kind of contradict myself on that particular point later on in my actual story so I'm actually kinda self confuzzled on that point…)
Sirus shifted and ran to the other side of the arena and tried to wrap his wound because he was losing too much blood. Skye followed him but the Tsnami he was fighting earlier tackled him in wolf form and pulled him into the Sky then he grabbed a chain from one of the nearby hunters and wrapped Skye in it padlocking it as he went. It wasoose but it held. For about 20 minutes cause Skye picked the lock
( for clarification he had already tried this once and was beaten for it and all locks were enchanted after that)
(Oke)
Letha ran as fast as she could, feeling her wound grow. She grimaced and ran, feeling the weight of the amulet in her hand. She turned down a hallway and stopped, happy to find the arena opening up below her. "Sirus!" She shouted as she ran down to the arena, jumping the wall and rolling in the dirt.
Sirus looked up as he met Skyes attack resuming their deadly dance. Their swords clashed between shifts and claws as Sirus finally managed to blast him back with his shadow whip. Not noticing the hunters he grabbed the amulet from letha "stop" he yelled as he grabbed it. Skye froze unable to move. "I realease you!" He said and Skye crumpled dropping his blades. Sirus ran to him and both of them embraced as Sirus removed the Altas band from Skyes arm and Skye cried knowing full well that he'd nearly killed Sirus. Then the 2 noticed the hunters closing in Skye summoned his power as he warped all the amulets to the arena levitating them calling out the words to set everyone free. Moments later a flood of halfbloods streamed into the arena. Fire colored ones and silver haired ones rushing through the crowd to heal wounds. And various others restoring each other as the hunters gathered on the other side clearly angry.
Letha smiled weakly and dropped to the ground, bleeding heavily but not telling anyone. She sat up and glanced at all the half bloods on one side of the arena, the hunters on the other. She looked down and saw that she was right in the middle "You're welcome," She whispered softly.
Skye shifted and got in front of her. Not noticing her wound he tilted his head back and howled. His cry was enchanting, and haunting, and filled with pure hatred and defiance. The halfbloods charged. The fight raged on and many of the halfbloods got away and most of the hunters were dead or dying. There was only Skye, Sirus, Letha, and Peter left, they faced a dozen hunters. Sirus was injured and bleeding from a wound in his side Skye was injured too but not as badly. Neither had noticed Lethas injuries. Sirus charged and Skye backed him up as they made a tandem attack quickly taking out 6 hunters and going after the rest but two went after Sirus and knocked him down as Skye broke through.
Letha had stood up when the fight started and she whirled around with her dagger in her hand. Her movements were slow and she continued to get cut, pushing through the pain and continuing on so she didn't seem weak. She went after another hunter and glanced at Sirus and Skye.
(Sorry i fell asleep…)
Skye broke through and motioned for letha to get away while he held the hunters back, using an aura shield to keep the opening open he rushed to help Sirus.
(same)
Letha shook her head and ran to them, hiding her wound "I'm not leaving you," She turned to Sirus "I said I wasn't leaving until we got you and Skye out, and I intend to keep that promise."
Sirus turned to her, then he saw her injury, realizing how bad it was he yelled to Skye to get her out of there, Skye saw her injury to and then scooped her up and ran for the trees. when he stopped a ways in he sent his mental projection out to see if sirus made it. what he saw made his heart sink to his belly. Sirus was pinned to the ground and the hunters were about to wrap him in gold binds, no one else was there, but Sirus was trapped. Skye shifted to go and save him but when he got there sirus was on his feet trying to get away, "Im trapped!" thought Sirus as he searched for a way out, then seeing Skye coming for him and knowing that the hunters were waiting for him out of sight, he used the last of his strength to reach out and portal both Letha and Skye out of the valley. Sirus collapsed in exhaustion, to tired to move as his vision went fuzzy he made one last effort to shift and get away but the hunters were on him "At least Letha still has my amulet…" he thought to himself as the darkness swallowed his consciousness.
Letha yelled when Sirus teleported them away, she dropped to her knees, tears streaming down her face and shook her head, standing back up and smiling weakly at Skye "We just traded one brother for another….." she pulled out Skyes amulet and pressed it into his hand before limping back towards the fortress, wincing with every step because of the gash on her back which she continued to ignore.
Skye came up behind her and held her back, "Letha don't." he said, "We're both hurtand need to rest, Sirus will survive, he's survived worse…" he said thro tears.
