Snippet #2204598

Thaddeus was running down the hallways after the alarm rang, guards hot on his tail. Children of Ares to make it even worse. When he busted through the exit by slamming his shoulders into it he slowed down a bit to catch his breath. As he breathed heavily the guards came out too but while most had spears and swords as weapons, a few carried javelins. Even with his powers, if they hit him with those then he would be a dead man. It would take a lot out of him to pull out a large amount of shroud in such a short amount of time though he did not have much of a choice. He quickly summoned a twelve foot tall shroud in front of him while he sprinted to the forest. Some tried to follow but the shroud expanded one hundred yards in length. The javelins soared through the air, one cutting the side of his arm, though he was trying to just keep conscious.

After running for five minutes he eventually got to the forest where he collapsed against a tree. The shroud faded three minutes after he ran so it gave him plenty of a head start. An image of Erin in a cave popped in his head. Was she in on this too? He thought to himself. Even if she was an enemy he was sure he could kill her though that was not what he wanted. It took him some time but he eventually sneaked to the cave that she was in. Exhausted he slumped against the cave wall and looked at her with sad eyes. "What happened?" He asked her, knowing she would have the same answer he had.
