'Run!'
'But what's the point?' The bounty hunter growled. 'I've been ordered to take you in alive, though The Oracle never specified 'how alive,' I suppose, I'd flee too if I were in your shoes.'
'Jake, why don't you go on ahead-'
'No,' Melia roared. 'If we split up, we'll be easy pickings.'
'And we're doing so well as a team.' Cali fired back. 'I miss my bow.'
'Any weapon would come in handy right now. Everblade truly is a mysterious realm. Taking our weapons, when we left, though leaving us with our weak armour and mediocre magic.'
I shook my head. 'Mystery is not the word I'd use Asher.'
He laughed, then almost pushed me down the stairs. 'Watch out!'
The net fired by the bounty hunter would have wrapped around my head if Asher hadn't seen it coming, and I winced as I saw its mesh flashing blue with torrents of electricity. 'That takes stunning to a whole new level.'
'Transmutation.'
