The Interrogation

"Run Lia!" The three boys heard. They were fighting with urgency to fan off the orange smoke that surrounded them. Prince Noah started coughing, the thick cloud of smoke made it difficult for him to breathe properly. He was kneeling against Ethan, attempting to fan off the smoke in front of him. 

"Lucas do something!" Ethan said worryingly, looking at his friend's condition. Growing up with unstable mana took a toll on the boy's body. Occasionally he would have trouble breathing in thick air conditions or running for a long period of time. Within seconds, the orange smoke faded out and the air around them seemed to sparkle a light green hue. The two boys glanced back at Lucas who seemed more than a little irritated.
