"Scatter," Elias ordered and the team immediately followed his order.
Their plan was simple, the more they stuck together, the easier it was for the Eclipsed to target them all at the same time, so splitting up would confuse it, if only for a moment.
But the team soon realized the flaw in this plan.
Maybe the three could protect themselves just fine and keep evading the Eclipsed, but what about the one person that had no combat training...
And that was exactly who the Eclipsed targeted....
Lorenne.
The creature moved at blinding speeds causing her to freeze and before she could react, the club was swinging towards her.
Yes, she had a barrier meant to protect her, but that was only up to tier 2 attacks since the first years were not expected to face anything above that.
She closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to arrive, and it did, but just not as much as she expected.
Lorenne felt her barrier activate as something crashed into her, causing her to tumble.
