Ava's struggle (3)

Boom...

Sweat ran down Ava's forehead as she defeated another monster with red tentacles. The monster's skin was purple and black blood was seeping out of its wounds.

She felt her wings, screaming under the pressure as she had been flying for the past half an hour. The numbness in her wings was spreading to her back, causing discomfort. However, Ava didn't have time to complain and forced her black wings to move towards two figures fighting in the distance.

As Ava approached the battle, she saw blood flowing from Eli's shoulder and felt guilty for not defeating the monster sooner. She quickly cast a fireball and threw it towards the stranger, who's hand was back to its normal color, but black blood kept gushing out from his lips.

Swish...

This time, the stranger was prepared for Ava's attack, but his reaction was slightly delayed. Ava's fireball found its mark, striking the stranger's back and eliciting a shriek of pain.
