Prior to our fight, this room was smooth concrete and steel rebar, unmarred but for the corpses of the cultists and the two dragon-babies.
Now, chunks of concrete end in jagged lines of empty...

Fire is all I know. Burning darkness suffuses me, setting every nerve ending I have alight.

The wind buffets me as the two of us fall as one, and I press myself close against the dying man’s body.
Despite that, I hear the sound of bullets screaming past us. Even over the deafening...

The gun jumps in my hands, but I’m more prepared for it now and my body is physically stronger. Just as it did last time, the thunderous crack-crack-crack of three shots firing in a rapi...

I savor the moment I meet my enemy’s blade with one of my own, taking in the surprise in his face.
For a split second, I see the first sign of fear appear in his expression, and I rise, cas...
