Chapter the Eighth

SAM WATCHED AS MOST OF THE AIRMEN ran from the helicopters and proceeded down the hillside to fight with the soldiers. There were about ten airmen left behind. They had stayed to guard the V.T.O.L. and the main helicopter.

Instantly, a heat surge came up fast from below him. He dodged just in time to avoid being hit with a huge fireball. It did hit the helicopter though, and it exploded upon impact. The resulting explosion caused flaming debris to shower down on a large area of the summit, while the force of the blast pushed Sam several yards downhill. He strained to get up as pain shot through his body.

Sam caught a glimpse of Achava making short work of some enemy soldiers. “Achava!” he called out, running to her and embracing her. “Are you alright?”

“Yes.” She was crying.

“Why are you crying?”

“I just dealt with Artemis Kieleg. I managed to throw him down the mountain.”

“How did he know we were here?”

“I don’t know, but I tackled him.”

“Good. What should we do now?”

“Maybe nothing, Sam,” she responded, trying to compose herself. “We have… allies.”

He looked at her with a puzzled expression. “Allies? So we’re not alone in this battle for the stone tablets? That’s great! Isn’t it?”

“Yes.” She nodded. “It is a blessing. The Sentinels of the Lord are here. ”

She went silent as sounds of gunfire rang out. Sam quickly turned around. Kieleg had arrived. He grabbed Achava by the hair, holding a firearm aimed at Sam. “I’ve got you both now.”

“Use your weapon,” Achava said.

Sam slammed the bottom of the staff down onto the ground. The entire summit shook violently as if an earthquake had just hit.

Kieleg looked shocked.

No one was more surprised than Sam, as Kieleg let go of Achava and backed up. Sam had no idea what to expect next, but that didn’t stop him from slamming the staff down on the ground for a second time.

The top of the staff warmed up to Sam’s touch and had a red glow. The staff shook as Sam held onto it with all his strength. It took both hands just to keep it steady. The red glow grew larger as a single locust flew out from under it.

Sam’s eyes widened. “Achava, look!”

Almost immediately, thousands of locusts swarmed out from the glow. It seemed that they were of one mind as they went straight for Kieleg.

Achava rolled out of the way as Kieleg was bombarded with every locust that came out from the glow of the staff.

Sam held his ground as he looked on in shock. One of the plagues of Egypt.

Yes, Sam. It is a miracle, like Moses.

The locusts completely covered Kieleg. He panicked and attempted to magically burn them off. It did not work. As he was covered more, his screams echoed throughout the valley. He wizardly made ice where fire failed. That didn’t work either. He then endeavored to summon the earth itself to completely cover him to protect him from the locusts. Nothing worked.

The dirt formed a cocoon about him.
