19 Sense of Direction (2/2)

But it was to soon to rest, the Minotaur was right in front of me. His arm shot out towards me, coming at me from the side. In the same second Royal launched his body toward the oncoming fist of the Minotaur, his body expanding to cover mine.

With his tail, he slaps me away and takes the hit that was meant for me. I flew through the air, although, I manage to twist in the air and land roughly on my feet.

The hit that the Minotaur had launched was too strong, Royal's body exploded on impact. There wasn't any blood this time, instead he blew up in a blaze of smoke and black fire. The black fire spread onto the Minotaur, who let out a loud scream.

He slammed his body into the maze walls, trying to smother the fire. I wave of anger and nausea pass over me at Royal's death. He'd sacrificed himself for me, clenching my fist, I feel hot tears run out of my eyes and down my face.

[Royal's body has been destroyed]

Dead.

He was dead.

I'd kill that motherfucker!

It was as if a red have had covered my vision, I wanted blood!

Grabbing the sword that I had strapped to my waist, I ready myself. The Minotaur had finally managed to put out the black fire that was eating its way up his arm.

The arm that had caught fire was in a sorry state, it was mangled and burned, the smell of burning flesh entered the air, making me gag a little.

Pushing off the ground, I jump towards the recovering Minotaur swinging my blade downwards, trying to apply as much force as I could into the chop. It cleaved downwards, but the Minotaur moved suddenly, his body vanishing from my sight.

Where did he go?! My body kept going forward, with my arms swinging the sword down, however, a sense of danger invaded my body. Trying to redirect my force, I managed to slightly turn my body.

A fist collided into part of my body, hitting my right side and sending me flying.

Coughing, blood poured out of my mouth as I was launched into another wall, slamming into the wall I feel more pain lace up my back and through my skull.

”Fuck!” I swear, feeling my vision swim. A burning sensation ran it's way through my eyes and wrapped around my head.

A loud snort sounded and the Minotaur slammed his hooves into the ground. My mind cleared up a little bit as I remember the rage and anger that I had towards this monster. I'd kill it, even if I had to tear it apart with my teeth!
