I quickly rushed out of the empty cafe and down the street.
In the distance, there was a long trail of smoke that seemingly scraped the sky as it pierced the clouds and darkened the surrounding area.
The light warmth of a flame came from right in front of me, and after running down the street, just to where the exit for the city was… I saw it.
"Fuck… I should've expected this to happen. Of course, this would happen," I muttered through gritted teeth.
The government or one of the main families had cut off all escape from the city, forcing them into becoming slave-like soldiers that would fight for their cause.
But before I could try and dig any deeper, I had to make sure my friends were okay.
After a few quick calls, I found out that Aisa, Findir, and Cy, who was with Findir, were okay.
Of course, he wouldn't want to answer my calls right now, but I didn't really care, as long as he was still alive.
