The Gladiator
You run toward the girl, leading your brother toward her so that you might get a chance to bolt while he's busy with her.
The girl doesn't run. She raises her fist for battle, her face the picture of utter confidence.
Velkadin ignores her and keeps running for you, his sword extended. However, when he passes the girl -
BAM!
Like a bolt of lightning, her leg lashed out with a powerful kick, knocking Velkadin back a good six paces. He fell on a pile of wooden platforms, breaking them in two.
You stop to stare in shock at what you'd just witnessed.
Velkadin pulls himself out of the wreckage and turns his hate-filled grey eyes on the girl.
You feel a sudden stab of fear for her safety.
