ONE HUNDRED THREE: So You Can Fight?

Kel didn't have long to ponder before the hallway began rumbling. Two openings on either side of them slid open and Yellow Marguerite soldiers began pouring out. 

There were secret passages after all, Kel wondered briefly as she and Lucy were forced away from the emperor and Thane. 

Despite their attempts to stay together, it seemed the soldiers' sole purpose was to separate the group. As Thane's calls grew farther away, Kel glanced nervously at Lucy and then at the warriors rapidly surrounding them.

There was no other choice, right? 

She'd have to reveal herself here and now.

But would she be able to fight off so many people and keep Lucy out of harm's way at the same time?

None of the soldiers were wearing armor above some leather armguards, fortunately, but every single one of them was armed.
