In the Heat of Battle
Nya's POV
I'm an archer. I knew better than to follow him - a swordsman - into the thick of battle. But that didn't stop my heart flipping when he disappeared from my view.
I climbed the nearest tree. Not too high. Good.
I loaded my first arrow. Shot it at the closest zombie. It collapsed with an 'erg' and vaporized into thin air.
I couldn't see Zach, but I could hear the zombie's death sounds that were coming from behind a small tree about twenty or so blocks away. Sounded like he was winning the fight.
Just then, something leaped at me from behind. I toppled over the edge of the tree and fell, the zombies waiting rather impatiently below.
I landed on my ankle. Very hard.
The pain was excruciating. I couldn't move. And zombies were everywhere.
Ok, Nya, what now? I couldn't move, and the zombies were all around me, still in a daze (me falling really surprised them that much?) but they wouldn't stay that way for long.
The first one stepped forward. As if on cue, so did the others. I screamed.

Zach's POV
Battling these slow, weak monsters one-on-one was easy. Doing so against about a dozen was not.
They just kept coming. I slashed and stabbed, but I could feel myself becoming more and more tired.
I heard a scream. Oh no. Nya.
I looked up at the tree where she was shooting from. She wasn't there.
Looking below the tree, at least eight zombies were forming a circle and slowly closing in. I heard her scream again.
"NYA, IM COMING!" That grabbed the zombie's attention. But only about three turned around. The rest kept going after Nya. Why isn't she moving?
I sprinted over, killing every zombie in sight. Once they were all dead, I checked Nya.
She was lying on the ground, unconscious. Her ankle was swelling up and on a funny angle. That must hurt like hell. So thats why she didn't move.
I heard a growl. Turning around, I could see the zombies still coming for Nya and I. Raising my sword, I stayed by Nya's side. She'll be easier to protect that way.
The zombies advanced forward.
