Shu and I immediately climb up as fast as we can. But, at this pace we would never catch up to them!

Shu suddenly stops and looks at me as he says, "I guess it's impossible to catch up to them after all."

"Yes! I know that! So don't stop like that!", I shout at him.

He smugs. Shu always does that expression when he has really very weird ideas. Then, he says, "I have an amazing idea on how to speed this up."

He shows his right hand, the one that was equipped with the metal glove. The glove glows again, as he suddenly grabs me and chucks me up.

Astonished, I look down at him as he shouts, "Save them!"

I grab the ladder, as gravity pulls me back after a certain height. I look up to find the bridge once more. What was with that arm thrust! He threw me all the way up!

I climb back onto the bridge. The black knights were on the other side. Sarah, Amber and Anderson were against six high levelled grievers. Carl was carrying Matthew who's health reached critical. Right now, they were in the worst situation possible.

I use my sniper rifle, and aim across the bridge and take two of them down. Amber, Sarah and Anderson charge for two Grievers.

But before I could aim for another one, a griever pounces on Matthew and Carl. Carl defends Matthew, by throwing his gun at the griever. The griever fangs the gun and destroys it. Now, it gets ready to pounce on them again.

Suddenly, I hear a whistle. The griever turns back, and then, before I knew it, its head was sliced in half. Then, in the blink of an eye, a women with red robes and green hair appears in front of Matthew, with her sword pointed in the air, where once the griever stood.

Then, I hear the sound of a minigun, as the final girever falls down on the ground, dead. Immediately, I rush to the other side of the bridge, where they all stood.

Two red cloaked men appear from behind the bushes and walk towards the women. The first man, was huge, had black hair with a military cut, and was well built. He carried a minigun and had a really very creepy smile on his face.

The second man was short and skinny, with brown messy hair and floracent blue eyes, and carried a dagger by his waist. A monkey like creature hangs onto his shoulder.

Yup, it is the red dragons. And the girl who just saved Matthew , must be their leader, Ashley.

Ashley glares at the huge man as she shouts, "Jovi! You could have left the last one for me as well!"

Jovi replies as he laughs, "Well, it's also unfair for you steal all the kills, miss!"

The skinny guy shrugs as he says, "Well I'm with Jovi on this. Being the leader, doesn't mean you can have all the fun."

"Lucas, not you too!", Ashley cries.

Matthew, still lying on the ground, bursts out in laughter.

Ashley glares at Matthew as she asks, "Why are you laughing?"

"Nothing. It's just that I never knew a queen would have a childish side like this too!", Matthew grins as he says.

"I'm not childish! And I'm not a queen either!", Ashley says flustered.

"Well with that commanding voice, you totally look like one, ma'am.", Matthew replies.

"Matthew!", Ashley shouts as she hmphs.

"Wow! Queen Ashley remembers my name! I feel royal now!", Matthew laughs.

Matthew tries to get up. Suddenly, he falls unconscious.

Ashley catches him immediately as she shouts, "Oh no! Matthew!"

We had totally forgot about Matthew's condition and now his health bar had gone down to 1%! I immediately remove the herbs, and Carl cooks the potion.

He makes 2 potions. One of them is to heal the poison and the other to revive 10% of his health.

Ashlee rests him on her lap, while she pours the potion into his mouth. Matthew opens his eyes, and then Matthew and Ashley keep staring at each other for few minutes.

Then, Ashlee break the silence, "May I know why I are you staring at me like that?"

"And may I know why am I on your lap?", Matthew replies.

Flustered, Ashley looks away. Sarah looks at them in envy. Amber and I smirk at her.

Sarah hmphs, as she tries diverting her attention. She goes to Lucas and stares at the monkey on his shoulder. She tries poking it, when it suddenly dissappears. Stunned, Sarah looks around for it. She finds it on Jovi's head as he pets it.

"Oh! sorry about that, Sonic's just too shy in front of strangers", Lucas says as he walks to Jovi and picks up the monkey.

"Wait? Did that monkey just teleport?!", Amber asks, amazed.

"First thing! It's not a monkey. And nope, it just travels so fast, that its speed can never catch your eye", Lucas replies.

"Those creatures are called fanks, aren't they? And if you have one, that means you must be a beast tamer, am I right?", Anderson asks.

Lucas replies as he shows his tattooed hand, "Yup, you guessed it right. I am a tamer".

Anderson stares at him. Then, he asks, "Then what's with those eyes?"

"And that's a secret I would like to keep it for later!", Lucas replies as he laughs.

Anderson keeps glaring at Lucas, as though he's trying to reveal some dark secrets hidden within him.

I turn back to see Shu, who had finally climbed back up, and now was running towards us.

"Wow! That was fast!", Matthew mocks Shu.

Shu looks at everyone and says, "So, did I miss something?"

"Well, except for the the red dragons showing up, nothing else.", Anderson replies.

Shu then gazes at Matthew and Ashley as he puts his hand under his chin and says, "Well, are you sure nothing really happened? Cause I'm curious why Matthew is lying on the lap of the red dragons leader!"

"Wait what?!", Ashley shouts flustered, as she pushes Matthew away.

"Ouch, that hurts!", Matthew groans as he falls on the ground.

"Oops, sorry!", Ashley shouts, as she picks he up.

"Okay, now that looks way more closer brother", Amber smirks.

"Wait are you both a thing now?", Shu says as he laughs.

"No, it's not like that!", Matthew and Ashley shout together.

"Yeah, I can see that. To be frank, both of your voices were well synchronized when you just shouted", Anderson smugs.

Ashley moves away from Matthew immediately. For a moment, I felt as though Sarah was gonna draw out her sword, with her eyes glaring at Ashley.

Suddenly, sonic starts to make weird noises. Alerted, Lucas shouts, "We have incoming grievers."

Sonic immediate dissappears into thin air, or that's what I saw. Lucas' eyes suddenly start to glow as a blue rings start to appear in front of his eyes.

Then he shouts, "Two on our right and one to our left. If we don't move now, there are chances of more them popping out!"

Amazed, I look at him. There was something more to him we haven't noticed.

"Okay, then let's stick to our original plan. Time to search for a safe zone.", I shout, hurriedly.

Ashley draws out her sword as she says, " Fine, I've come up with a formation. The ones who can still fight, will surround the ones who can't. Any objections?"

I shake my head, accepting her plan. Ashley takes in charge, leading the group forward, with Jovi guarding the back. Me, Anderson, Sarah and Amber stay on either side of the team, leaving Matthew, Lucas and Carl in the centre.

We start to sprint forward quickly, using Lucas' eyes to avoid every griever possible.

Right now, our main aim is to reach the safe zone without even a single scratch.

"Black Knights and red dragons let's go!", Everyone shout as we move forward.
