Arcanum - Chapter 151

The Dark Elf just muttered incoherently swaying form side to side aimlessly walking towards us. “I SAID DON’T COME ANY CLOSER!!!” I yelled at the op of my lungs pointing my wand at him ready to fire a spell.

“Paul!! wake up!!” I shook him in a panick trying to wake him up but he still laid dormant.

“WALK BACK NOW!!!” I yelled at the Dark Elf still wondering aimlessly towards us with no weapons drawn. A set of glowing chains shot past me nad in an instant coilded itself aroudn teh Dark Elf restiraning him completly forcing him to fall to the gound.

“Is the commander okay?..” The student asked arriving by my side her wand still pointed at the entrance as the shillouete of more and mroe Elves began to appear.

“He… He….. He’s not responding…” I struggeled to answer her the thought of him dying overwhelming every firbe of my body.

“Okay…. first let’s get him back…. he in no condition right now.. and we have no idea what’s beyond those walls…” The student said withdrawing her wand and turnign him over. “We’re gonna drag him back…. I can hear students commign towards us…. just keep your wand pointed at the openign and help me with your other hand.” She instructed tryign to calm me down.

“….. Okay…” I answered maintianing my wand at the opening and grabbing his shirt at the shoudler.

“Okay….. let’s go..” She instructed and quickly set off a white flare and begin to drag his heavy body while keepign a close eye on the Dark Elves.

“What’s happened to the commander?..” a male student’s voice asked as he met us keeping an eye on the opening.

“He’s not responding….. get the Head of the Medical division immediatly.” She ordered the male student.

“I’ll go now…. Theres more students arriving in a second….. just keep going.” He informed us and quickly ran back into the city.

“Do you think he’s dead…” I asked as tears began to flow down my eyes uncontrollabally.

“I’m not an expert…. so let’s jsut focus on getting him safe and secure while the head of the Medical Divion gets here….” She replied.

“He’s not breathing…..” I said to her on the verge of breaking down.

“Calm down….. I’m sure he’s fine…. he’s been through much rougher situations.” She expalined.

“What’s wrong with the commander?..” a few students asked lifting him him while the others watched the opening.

“We’re not sure…. The Head of Medical Division should be here soon.” She informed them as everyoen woerked to gether to swiftly bring him to safety.

“Sir what do we do with the oncomming Dark Elves?..” A student asked.

“They don’t seem hostile anymore…. arrest and detain them for questioning.” A male voice orderd them as a set of studnets walked pass up towards the opening.

Everythign became a blur once we fianlly returned to the saftey of all the other students placing him down softly on the ground. All the students stood in shock adn horor staring at his domant body…..

“Okay evey able body student… we need to protect the bottle necks make sure no Dark Elves get through…… I also need ten pair of students to check on each bottle neck and report back on teh situation….” A student began to order everyone.

“Don’t worry…. he’s gonna be okay…” The student helpign em put a hadn on my shoulder.

“He’s not moving… not even breathing….. I can’t even sense him…” I replied to her.

“Don’t worry….. this is the Black Dragon slayer…. I’m sure he has some sort of contingencies and things for situations liek this…. in a couple hours he’s gonna be completly fine.” She smiled trying to reassure me.

Kneeling down beside him…. I couldn’t help but blame myself for all this… if it wasn’t for me asking him to save the refugee’s he wouldnt have pushed himself so hard… “Can anyone help him?..” I poleaded looking at everyone.

“I’m sorry…. you must be new… The medical students are makign their way as soon as they can.” A male student knelt down to inform me.

“Make way!!!” A older voice shouted causing a path of open in the crowd of student letting through an older gnetleman flanked with four othe rstudents all wearing white robes.

“It’s going to be okay miss… He’s going to be alright….” He smiled placing a head on my cheek nodding to reassure me as the four otehr students began to examine him. “Don’t you all have something to do???!!! There’s still injured students to take back to triage and Dark Elves to detain.” He ordered the otehr students into action.

“Okay….” I wiping my tears but still cry and heaving looking at what they was doign to him.

“Don’t worry about him…. he’s in good hands now…” He said diveting my attendion back to him. “I’m Doctor Macros head of the Medical Division… Now…. do you have an injuries?…” He asked me like a caring father.

“… No… i dont think so…” I shooked my head.

“Are you sure?….” he asked me again taking a check over me.

“I think so… I don’t feel anything painful…” I answered him.

“Okay….” He nodded and turned back to the other four students. “Is he ready?…” He asked them.

“Yes….. We’ve set up the runes we can go wehn ready.” One answered him.

“Okay come along miss….” he said taking my hand helping me up.

“Is… he alive?..” I struggle to string a sentance to ask him.

“Yes he should make a full recovery.” He smiled wlakign me towards Paul.

“Okay send the flare.” He ordered with a smile.

“Is he gonna be okay?… I asked one last time.”

“He’s in a very critical conition right now… but don’t worry we’ll try our best…..” He smiled and nodded.

“Is he breathing???….. it looks liek he’s not breathing…” I asked in a panic.

“Nothign to wrory about Miss Emilia….. he will be fine.” He smile as the students began to wheel him away in another direction.

“You need to save him….. it’s all my fault….” I pleaded with him.

“Trust me…. none of this is your fault….. he always proetects Atlantis sudents with everyhting he has.” He smiled holdign my hand to steady my nerves.

“The second he wakes up… I’ll take you to see him okay..” He smiled lettign go of my hands.
