Surprise Attack (Part 2)

One floor below Nila and Leo's rooms were Cain, Clay and Rene. Clay and Cain had their back towards each other, each facing a different end of the hallway. Between them was Rene, she was visibly shaking but did her best to maintain her composure.

A trickle of blood was rolling down Cains forehead and over his left eye as he stared at the person he was facing, A cultist wearing the usual cloak and mask.

At the opposite end of the hallway Clay had his own Cultist to face as well. Cain and Clay were each breathing heavily from the fighting they had endured thus far.

"Don't be so... scared, Rene. We won't... let them touch you." Clay said amidst his panting.

The Cultist facing Cain let out a low chuckle "We won't kill the girl, no no no, she's more useful alive. There are many uses for a female slave... Especially one so beautiful."
