Chapter 10: Teamwork

* * *

To everyone’s surprise, Erin jumped at the opportunity to step forward and led the way. According to Seraph’s plan she didn’t need to do much, she just needed to be the first one out, so she could use her ability and then maintain the ability in a pending state as the rest of their group did their own parts, waiting for the signal to release it.

“Alright guys. On the count of three, everyone needs to go. Remember your rolls and stick to the plan and you’ll be ok.” Seraph said as he looked at each of them, waiting until he got a nod in affirmation that they understood what their role was in the take down of the Gigas. One after another they gave him the acknowledgment he was looking for.

Satisfied, he began the countdown. “One, two, three. Go.” Seraph commanded in a low voice.

They ran out into the exposed danger of the Gymnasium from their hiding place. Each of them shielding their eyes as Erin pulled upon the innate power of her passive ability, Starcall. A white light barely the size of a tennis ball appeared into existence at the feet of the giant monster, though the monster seemed not to notice as it stood passive and unmoving near the exit. The light blinked and pulsed, but if the Gigas noticed, it refused to look. Unconcerned for the thing beneath its feet.

Alexander was the first to strike. He ran up the wooden bleachers to give himself a chance to strike at the unprotected side of the Gigas. With the noise in the room as heavy as it was, his footsteps landing heavy on the steps as he ran up them did nothing to alert the monster that he was coming, the monster's attention focused completely on Seraph as Seraph run towards him.

The elven man pulled his spear from his pocket and extending it as he leveled it and charged, bracing the spear with his body and shoved it into the side of the Gigas who screamed in rage as it counter attacked and brought a fist down, breaking the bleachers where Alexander had seconds previously been standing on, the attack missing him due to Seraph’s instructions to move backwards immediately after striking, having informed the group of the Gigas’s attack patterns.

The monster seeing Alexander still alive bellowed in rage, the scream throwing everyone into a short state of fear, a fear that stopped Alexander where he was in paralysis as the Gigas gave chase after him. It’s attention fixating on him with a terrible look in its eyes, eyes of the deepest gray that bore straight into him, full of pain and anger. They all knew if Alexander got caught, the thing would be merciless and take it’s time enjoying killing him.

“Uh guys, I got its attention.” Alexander yelled, his voice cracking as it betrayed his fear as he tried to pretend to be more confident than he really was. “I need help though, I can’t move, I’m stuck.
