"NOOOOOO!

Jake's POV

Michael's hands were bound when I came upon the place, he looked ragged as he struggled to break free. Cassie was fighting with the unnamed soldier, swiftly deflecting each of her blows as she tried to actively attack. Sofosys joined the battle with great vigour, complementing Cassie's fighting, and soon the entire arena was a jarry of activities and a flutter of motion. 

I rushed to untie Michael's bound hands. The ropes dug deep into his skin, trickles of blood ran down his arms where the ropes seemed to have injured him. I hurried but the knots were too tight and too convulated, it confused me. If only I had scissors!

Suddenly, Cassie screamed, "SOFOSYS!"

I turned to see a spear like weapon being flung onto him as Sofosys fought the kidnapper in oblivion.
