They flailed their breaths all around the vast cave, trying to stop the sea of bats heading their ways. However, the best they could do was slow them down, they were unable to kill even a single one. The bats would always run away when they reached a critical health, and a dozen more would take their places.
They were closing in, and at a great speed. The group hurried to get inside the crevice and in a minute Alan and Kazikato were all that were left. Alan grabbed Kazikato and threw him towards the crevice, gesturing him to go away first.
Kazikato stopped his breath and scurried into the cave. To keep up, Alan increased his mana consumption and his breath grew twofold, covering the entire ceiling almost. It was like a tornado of blue fire, scorching the bats. Or in his case freezing them.
The breath increased and increased, and Alan slowly made his way towards the crack, walking backwards.
"Hurry!"
