We can't allow this

The power that thrummed in my head made me clench Harlie's shoulders, and I closed my eyes for a split second as my power fought to escape.

I agree. We can't.

"Lilith?" Harlie asked. "Are you not feeling well again?"

"No," I mumbled.

"You must go, Kitten. Any longer and we'll both be sitting ducks."

"No," I repeated and shook my head once again.

"No?" Harlie sounded confused. "I'm not following."

I opened my eyes, and I noticed how wide his eyes grew in shock.

"You're not staying here," I declared with power, my eyes surely glowing red as my magic began to run through me until it reached my fingertips. "You're mine, and no one will stop me from taking you from this place."

His puzzled expression would have been amusing in other circumstances, but this was different. I had to do this. I wouldn't let him remain here for another five, ten, or fifty years. We had a connection, just like I did with Gabe and Ceru. He would fight by my side like the others would, and I had every intention of beating these unrealistic odds.

He opened his mouth to speak, but my wings shot outward, stretching to their full length. Without much difficulty, I flapped them once and tightened my grip on Harlie's shoulders, the force enough to shoot the booth of us upward between the walls and right above the two buildings.

My eyes immediately noticed how large the two masses of shadows were, but it was too late now. I would have to deal with the consequences of my actions and I was ready to fight to have Harlie join our team.

With another flap of my wings, we were soaring through the air. Harlie was completely quiet, and I was sure it was due to his shock, but it made it easier to concentrate as I locked onto the EXIT sign that was closing in.

Glancing back over my shoulder, I noticed the two waves of monsters that soon coalesced into one large mass. Cursing under my breath, I increased my speed, the wave of adrenaline kicking in.

We closed in on the exit, and my eyes caught onto Ceru and Gabe, the two of them waving to get my attention.

"Prepare for battle!" I commanded, using magic to amplify the volume of my voice.

The two of them looked shocked, but in seconds, Gabe had his wings out and sword in hand, while Ceru had clapped his hands and summoned the flames that wrapped around him in preparation.

Flying past them, I circled around and lowered Harlie to the ground first before landing in front of him.

Gabe and Ceru looked back at me, and I went right to the point.

"The path I took was a dead end. Whoever walks through it is destined to die. This guy has been helping potential students for five years by taking their place and fighting the shadows long enough for the other person to escape and finish the Trial. I won't continue to watch him be a victim of circumstance.
