"No... Not again... I let someone get taken again..." Leo said in disbelief. The pain of having failed another friend was slowing seeping in.
"We have to... We have to get him back. We have to..." Leo turned around to speak with the rest of his group, but as he did, he saw that almost all of them were unconscious.
Cain still hadn't woken up from the injuries he sustained earlier. Clay had passed out just after Leo dashed away from him and Nila had succumbed to the needles and collapsed.
Rene had been in the middle of the group during the entire fight, but all she could do was lie down on the ground and hope she didn't get hit with anything.
Nila and Clay stood their ground so that Cain and Rene wouldn't be in their attackers direct line of sight.
Rene was sitting on the ground holding her knees with her arms. Her body was shaking and there were tears in her eyes.
