Chapter 8 - Chapter 9 I Hate Ants

SHHIIIIINNNKKKKKK BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM

Ever since those large headed ants I have dubbed generals things have gotten much worse for me. The ants became oraganized and even vague outlines of army formations.

"SSSHHHHKKKKKK" I blade of darkness flashes past me that i just barely dodge, there magic is stronger too.

I Jump up to dodge tentecles of darkness and earth the pop out beneath me then earth spikes fly toward me in the air. With quick thinking I explode my fire magic to my side to push me out of way into one of the pillars.

Grabbing onto the pillar with my magic I try to catch my breath to ready myself for the magic attacks I see them already firing my way until.

I feal the stone start rumbling underneath my pawn and i push myself out, earthen spikes fire out from the pillar. I was not quick enough as one of the spikes still lodges into my side.

Then the volley of earth and darkness spells are upon me forcing me to blast fire magic once again to push myself towards the floor. Before I land I see tendrils of darkness shoot out and grab me.

Quickly covering myself in fire to burn away the tendrils there is another volley of attacks coming at me. To shoot so quickly they are likely taking turns in groups making things even harder for me.

I stomp on the floor and shoot backwards towards the hole I am trying to escape out of when an earth wall shoot out of the ground in front of me.

"SHI-" BOOOOM I hit the wall with a Bang stopping me dead in my tracks just long enough for the magic attacks to bare down bare down on me as I brace myself.

BOOOOOM BAAAAAAANG BAAAAAAAAAAM

Everything that was around me was blown to smithereens, leaving a large pit where used to be well crafted stone flooring.

In the center of the pit was Sora, cut, bruised and bloodied almost every inch of his skin covered in his blood.

I would have been dead except before the attacks hit me, I used my light barrier and i shrunk the area into only cover over my skin. I was just trying to decrease the area of protection to make it last a little longer except the barrier grew stronger with the shrinking. Who would have known.

I should have done this a long time ago, I mentally kick myself.

Aching from every inch of his body Sora slowly stood up as the ants surrounded him there antennae starting to glow as they start forming another volley of attacks.

This is my end. Even having the strongest god king gift me the very best blessings, I still die before I could even leave this forest damn forest. I really am a failure. But I will at least die standing. No one can, at least, call me a coward.

As I ready myself for death ,the ants spells shooting towards me to end me, a purple blur flashes. Sora disappearing faster than anyone can react right before the spells hit him.

BOOOOM an explosion from a hundreds spells make the pit even deeper, but the general ants look around to see the human and a large purple rabbit in front of one of the tunnels.

"Scratchy?"

Sora staring unbelievingly at the rabbit I thought abandoned me. Realizing my friend came back for me I started to cry. I wasn't alone.

Scratchy sided eyed me like making fun of my crying which made me start choking back any more tears, trying to look stoic and salvage my image.

The ants are rushing as fast as they can towards me which makes me nervous. Purple lightning starts forming all around us and then Scratchy zooms into the tunnel as the ants are about to reach us.

Everything is a blur as we dash about through tunnels turning left and right, far to fast for me to make heads or tails of anything. Scratchy dashed past or right through any ants we came across.

But it was only a few minutes until the purple lighting covering us slowly weakens until its gone, scratchy breathing heavily, and us still trapped in the ant tunnels.

Where we ended up was a large cavern with multiple entrances I can see, but what captures my attention
