Sanguis had barely finished explaining himself when suddenly their group was under seige by all the elements. "What's going on?! Whats---Ahh!" Nel was cut off as someone grabbed her arm from behind, she turned to face her assailant only to see a giant brute of a man that she had never seen before. "No! Get off me!" she screamed just as a blast of white fire slammed into the man, forcing him to let go of her. She turned in the direction of the blast and saw Sanguis was rushing toward the attacker with his katana.
"Please be careful, Sanguis!" she said. Just then she noticed another person rush out of the woods behind Sanguis, in an attempt to get him from behind. He was stopped cold by the force of a girl running into him full force, causing him to stumble back while Nel, who had never done that before, fell face first into the ground. "Darn...Oww..Get up, Nel!" she told herself.
She was greeted by the sight of the man she had stopped pulling out his weapon and running towards her. In response, she pulled out her own weapon (a longsword now, for those who haven't read through the past 30 so pages) and quickly enchanted it with ice, causing it to give off an icy blue glow. "Why do we always have to fight?" she said out loud as she parried a slash from her attacker.
"Oh no! What about Niola and Azzie?" Nel realized and turned to see how they were faring. They too, were under seige from their attackers, but noone had gone to attack them directly, yet.
Again, she parried an attack from her attacker, and this time, instead of striking back with her sword, she rammed into him, sending him tumbling to the ground. Using this oppertunity, Nel used her magic to freeze her opponent's arms and legs to the ground, trapping him. She then turned and ran toward Niola and Azzie; she somehow knew Sanguis would be okay, and she wanted to be with them incase the enemy decided to attack them.
As she ran towards them, she spotted a man, possibly the leader, pointing a sword at Cyr, "Is...Is that the leader?" she said, oblivious to everything else going on.
