Chapter 45: Fight off the Ambush
Everything around me seem to remain the same as if I was going to be stuck in this damn abyss forever. I don’t even know if the girl will save my life again or if I’ll just be dead forever.
She was the main reason I escaped the abyss the last time but I don’t know that’ll be the same case now.
He can feel the warm embrace around him once again as he continues to float there. "I wouldn’t just leave you here by yourself, you must go back." She whispers softly in his ear.
I know I’ve got to go back but how am I suppose to fight off an ambush when I barely remember where they came from. A more cautious approach could work I guess but will that be enough?
"Will I even be able to stop it...?" Artemis asks with a bit of worry in his voice.
Her arms tighten just slightly around him before she speaks. "Of course you will, you’ve got me to help out so there’s no way to lose again." She assures him as they begin to head for the light.
In most cases you would expect the light to be the thing you stray away from but this situation is a lot different from your average life or death scenarios.
Within a few seconds he opens his eyes to the sights of his party standing before him again. They were back on the path through the outskirts of Helfri, but they weren’t as far in as before.
Artemis looks around in a panic as he tries to grasp how far he is from the place they were attacked at. "Can anyone use something to detect other people?" Artemis asks with a bit of panic in his voice.
