"Percy! Go faster!" I yell.

"Yes Mr. Calidain." Percy complains.

"Less whining love, and go faster!" Vex yells.

I"Uh guys?" Grog points.

I turn.

"Oh shit." I sigh.

They shoot out of the shadows like bullets. Iroks, or swamp wraiths. They are green ghosts that devour souls and life. I thought they would kill me but every time they suck me; it's all a lost cause.  They have red beaming eyes. It was a flood of angry spirits.

"Is that bad?" Vax looks at me.

"Just don't let them touch you." I say.

Vex shoots an arrow. It goes right through one.

"Their swamp wraiths! Ghosts!" I yell at her.

"Well, maybe you should've mentioned that love!" Vex yells.

"I couldn't have! Now I am!" I yell.

"Less talk, more escape!" Percy calls.

I shoot my hand forward. I use my blood magic to stop them. It forms a barrier of red. I wince. There were a lot. It is always shaky if the number is more than twenty. I'm used to fifty, but there are more than that. I feel blood leaking out of my mouth. I can hear each of their heart's pounding. I can hear their blood flowing. I feel my strength breaking. I wince. I suck in a breath. My life is infinite maybe this would kill me. If it does, that'll be a sight to see. I haven't tried this, or at least I think I haven't tried this before. 

"Calidain, keep them back for as long as you can!" Vex yells.

"Okay, okay, love to." I say.
