Boom!
Rhashan bent down, his arms raised above his head as he instinctively shielded himself. He remained still for a moment, realizing that nothing was happening.
Eh? What was that?
Slowly, Rhashan raised his head to see a huge figure standing in front of him. It was Lassen, holding a shield. His black leather trench coat fluttered wildly behind him from the shockwave that followed the explosion.
Wow, he has a really huge figure, Rhashan thought as he stared at Lassen's bulky back.
Lassen glanced over his shoulder at Rhashan, concern etched on his face.
"You okay?" he asked.
"Barely! What the hell was that?" Rhashan stood up from his crouched position, peeking from behind Lassen to see what had attacked them.
"I don't know. Some kind of weird projectile!"
Rhashan's eyes widened as he looked at the ballistic shield. Though it was already in bad shape, now, a whole section of it was gone.
