Calamity Strikes (2)
It was the third earthquake they felt in minutes. It couldn't be a natural phenomenon. Someone or something was intentionally causing this mess. But the Chirons had no clue who it could be.
"We're surrounded," a Chiron with closed eyes mumbled. "I can sense hundreds of hostiles all around us!"
"I don't care about those maggots!" Tehron gritted his teeth. "Find out what's causing the earthquakes!"
"Sir, we need to get rid of the wolves first—"
Smack!
Tehron hit the person before pulling them in.
"Take my squad and man the gates! Do I need to hold your fingers to make you do your job!?" Tehron yelled, pushing the man away.
He continued. "Tell all squads to man the borders! The rest should escape through the underground tunnels for the time being."
For people who had spent centuries perfecting their defense, it was quite unsightly to see them in such panic.
