Moments later, four figures emerged from the edge of the woods.
The first was a short young man with tanned skin, tousled dark brown hair, and wore a torn white shirt stained with blood and dirt. In his arms, he carried an unconscious girl with fiery orange hair.
Despite their current predicament, she seemed to be at ease.
Behind him was a man with short blonde hair with red tips and crimson eyes. His clothing was torn, but he wore a proud grin as he strode forth. On his shoulder was a black bow with a distinct design.
The last of the group was a young girl with long flowing black hair and a piercing stern gaze, she usually wore glasses but those were shattered in their previous scuffle.
On one hand, the girl held a katana, and on the other was a magnificent staff with a golden luster. It bore intricate carvings of swirling clouds and at their ends were ornate cups which were now smeared by dirt.
