The horror that they are facing

Ezra slashed through another Eater and quickly transformed it into a shadow. His necromancy army had grown to the size of twenty shadows now, all doing as he willed, but it still wasn't enough; the Eaters were just too many.

"We have to get somewhere safe," Ezra said as he spotted one of the school buildings that was intact.

"Head there; the shadows will cover us," Ezra commanded. They all ran towards the building, but they weren't lucky enough. One of the Eaters found a sharp object and threw it with full force, the object cutting into Elizabeth's stomach.

"Fuck," Seth cursed. He was closest to her and quickly grabbed her. "Elizabeth got hit," Seth said.

"Hand her to me," Ezra ran towards them and took her. There was a reason he didn't use shadow space for all of them; they had to reserve all energy for the fight, and moving all of them was a waste of energy.
