Chapter 84
“Do you have a cellar? Do you have a cellar?” Ty repeated more loudly since Shana’s was too shocked to answer.
“Yes,” Ms. Latimer answered in reply.
Taking Shana’s bicep, Ty led her and Ms. Latimer outside, around the house, to the entrance of the cellar.
“Stay here and hunker down,” he suggested.
“No,” Shana replied, instantaneously refocusing her mindset and changing it to one refusing to hide. “I want to be with you. Maybe I’ll get my element. I want to help.”
“You don’t have an element and until you do, you’re just another civilian. I don’t want you to get hurt. Stay here,” Ty sternly commanded her, closing the cellar doors once they were far enough down the stairs.
“Let’s go, Copper,” he hopped onto the direfox. Although shorter than a horse, Copper was faster and more muscle-bound than a steed. “As fast as you can now,” Ty encouraged the monster while sitting mounted on the unsaddled beast. We’ve got to get to the stables we saw last night as Hughley took us to the tavern. I can get an aerial monster there and help in the battle.
I can’t believe this, Ty thought as he rode. All around the city, enemy dragons, phoenixes, and gryphons, swooped down, unleashing their attacks on the city. People who’d been out and about frantically ran, seeking cover. Horns continued to blare, even louder now that Ty was outside and could hear them better. Warriors on top of the watchtower the Elf and direfox rode past used miniature-like catapults to shoot weighted nets at enemy monsters. One of the fired entrapments connected with its intended target, wrapping up a gryphon and sending it crashing into the side of a building.
Coming to the stable where friendly aerial monsters were being saddled and mounted before taking to the skies, Ty dismounted Copper and approached the man in charge.
Oh, you’ve got to be kidding me, Ty thought as he saw who it was. It’s the same man Shana and I got in a fight with in the tavern. Captain Nereus. He must be in charge of directing Casanovia’s aerial warriors while the Aerial Commander is in Celestial for the Tournaments.
“I’m an aerial warrior from the capital,” Ty explained, coming up to the captain with light-brown skin without wasting a moment’s notice. “Is there a mount I can ride?”
Looking Ty up and down, Nereus instantly recognized the Elf as the one who gave him the bruised jaw he currently sported. “No way. You’re not even armored,” he waved Ty away.
“That should be the least of your concerns. Have you seen the amount of destruction already? You need these monsters in the sky immediately,” Ty gestured to the winged allies who were pulling and biting their chains, raring to be freed so they could help fight. Even as he spoke, an enemy monster sent a tornado ripping through the far end of the stables, causing everything that wasn’t tied down to fly everywhere.
“My men are coming in every couple of minutes. We don’t
