Kaitlyn

Kaitlyn felt Vyekrin tense under her, but it was too late. He fell to the ground, and Kaitlyn lost her grip on the dragon’s horns. She was thrown onto the hard ground and skidded further and further into the fighting ring.

Kaitlyn! Vyekrin’s voice screamed in her mind, and she cringed at the sudden intrusion. Please speak to me! Run, Kaitlyn, run from here and do not stop until you are safe!

We can speak through our thoughts? Kaitlyn asked herself automatically. She shook her head at the thought, sure that she was imagining things, but she did as Vyekrin said. She felt her limbs, but they were all stiff and sore. I can’t move, she thought in response, her words slow and slurred even in her mind.

You must, do whatever you can to get away. Once I remove this threat, I will come to you. I swear. But you have to save yourself! Vyekrin called back, confirming her curiosity. We have a strong connection, you and I. and I refuse to lose you again!

At his words, she could feel a strange tugging in her chest, pulling her towards the dragon. It felt as though there was a leash binding them together, a tangible force that held the dragon to her side. Even this short distance felt like too much now that she knew of the bond.

Vyekrin’s pleading was enough to motivate her. echoing his desires, she wanted nothing more than to eliminate the space between them.

She gathered all of her strength and pushed herself onto her knees. Her arms throbbed and stung, scraped from the fall and covered in a coarse red dust. She tried to wipe them off, but found that the red color was from her blood, staining the pale ground.

Roaring close by caught her attention, and she turned to see the two dragons lashing at each other. Polae coiled her neck and sprung like a snake, but Vyekrin caught her easily in his large hands, pinning the dragon to the ground. Polae had the advantage with her flexibility, and smacked Vyekrin with her two tails, stunning him. She jumped and grabbed Vyekrin, wrestling him to the ground.

Behind the thrashing dragons, Kaitlyn could see Cy's horrified face. His metal features were mangled by pain and rage as he struggled against a hoard of Draken that held him back. Their two guards were lost in the crowd, and Kaitlyn wondered if they would’ve helped if they were able.

Kaliyah appeared before Kaitlyn, her twisted smile showing off her pointed teeth. With one swift movement, the other girl pulled back her leg and kicked Kaitlyn in the side. She was flung a foot away, landing on her side hard enough to bruise. She groaned as she rolled onto her back, head ringing. She stared up at the sky, unable to hear anything around her.

Sadistic laughter in tune with the bells in Kaitlyn's ears rung as Kaliyah stepped up to her. She said something, but the words were unintelligible. When Kaitlyn didn't react, Kaliyah scowled.
