Kreeeeek
It had been more than three years since Tessa last held a bow and arrow.
And now, she had to aim at a being hovering two hundred feet above the ground.
She clicked her tongue in frustration. This wasn't about whether she wanted to do it.
It was about survival—hers and her family's. She had no choice.
"I'm going to raise the shield, but it won't hold for long. Do it quickly," William said, preparing to protect her from the acid rain.
"Do it right. I don't want a scar on my face," the lady warned. The rain was melting metal easily, her skin was like butter, it would hiss and melt instantly.
She then turned towards Ruby who knelt there, tuning a few arrows for her. It didn't take her more than a few seconds before she got up.
"All set," Ruby said with a nod. "We just need to disrupt him."
"I understand," the lady nodded, gripping the bow.
"Go for it!" Reid shouted, his voice echoing through the house.
