A Deeper Taste Of Despair

"Uarhhhhhhhh!!!" Carl and Desmond screeched in agony, consumed by the flames of the Dragon.

Within moments they turned into ashes, dissipating into dust.

The remaining humans trembled in fear at the sight of fire and smoke beside them.

The object of terror emerged from the thick fog of burning gas and grinned statistically.

"Gruuuuu…"

Nathan felt despair fill him up.

The surviving members, Lucy, Lydia, and Jack all called out to him, rushing to his side for protection. The intense fear they all felt drove them to the single focus of salvation… Nathan!

"N-No…" He mumbled lost in his powerlessness.

The earth trembled as the monstrosity drew nearer. Within moments it would reach Nathan, as well as the other survivors.

Sparks of flames appeared on its mouth, signaling the next volley of assault.

"We must… Survive… We… W-" Nathan kept mumbling to himself.

We?
