CLXXIV: Escape From Nizen City V

Astonished, everyone froze in place. But when they realized themselves, a roar broke out and the Tethered's rushed him.

"Lee?" Shen had wondered, not sure if he was seeing correctly or he just hit his head too hard.

"Get out of here!" Wukong yelled. Then he turned to the five hundred or so Tethereds racing for him. "Get Judith..." Before he could finish his sentence, a vortex opened up under Judith.

At once he grabbed her and pulled her onto her feet. She was now more lucid, slightly better.

"Judith." He called out to her, but looking at Wukong, she wasn't sure what she was seeing.

"Wukong?" She asked, and just then a bolt of Lightning zipped toward them.

Wukong immediately leaped backwards, but just then another Vortex opened up under him, right at the spot he was about to land. Using his staff, Wukong elongated it so it stretched both ways. 

Now long enough, he placed it on the floor and stood on it so he did not fall into the Vortex.
