THE CRITICAL SITUATION (25)

"What do you mean dead people?" Addie asked Rowan when he walked back with Pyro with ashen expression, he knew something was going on. "I don't want to fight dead people. I don't want to fight them at all!"

Addie shuddered with the thought that dead people crawled on the crater's walls and tried to come back to the living world.

"What is that?"

"Gates of hell," Pyro replied. He checked on Dawn and Darius.

"What is that? Is that like a gate to an underworld or something?" Addie didn't like this explanation at all, it made his stomach churned.

"You can say so."

"I only fought a living creature, not a dead one."

"Unfortunately, you don't have the privilege to choose your enemy." Pyro grimaced when he watched all of the shifters were writhing in pain.
