Encounter-2

The man started walking ahead. He was a bit moody right now so failed to notice a man lurking in the shadows. However, Crystal was keen enough. It was a secluded forest as well as night time. Though she didn't mind traveling in darkness, this was a perfect opportunity for their enemies to sabotage. 

She quickly became alert. 

As soon as she saw something in the shadows, she followed it. Although she wanted to warn the man, she was short at times. Without wasting any time, she followed the shadow. 

Stealth as she was, she quickly became one with the darkness. 

Tin!!

A flying blade bumped her armor creating a rattling noise. The enemy had yet to show himself. Not a very good thing to happen in a battle. 

"Come out and fight like a man, you coward" She tried luring the enemy but it was futile.

Rustles were heard as the wind was strong.

HAHAHA!
