A fight to Survive or Die
Hana continued to fly the Hoverbike as crazy as she dared, swerving and diving and skyrocketing upward in an attempt to evade the countless creatures coming after them. Her head hurt from the effort; her stomach begged her to stop.
Behind her, Max continued to shoot as many winget as he could with his Air Blaster, defending her as she drove. He'd slipped and almost fallen several times, but she had no choice but to keep flying forward. She caught a glimpse of Tom streaking past her on his Hoverbike. Alone.
"Where was—"
Before she could finish her thought, one of the flying creatures slammed into them from the side, driving its head into the engine of the bike. Hana lurched, barely hanging on as the body of the beast flipped under them and fell to the ground. She felt Max squirming behind her, trying to right himself on the seat. "What was that thing doing?" he asked.
Unfortunately, they got their answer a second later.
