The sky rained neon blue death.
Plasma bolts slammed into the obsidian floor of the crater, shattering the glass into razor-sharp shrapnel that pinged off Rin's armor.
"Cover!" Rin screamed, dragging Leo's unconscious body behind a ridge of crystallized sand.
Nyx dropped beside him, throwing up a gravity distortion field that caught three plasma rounds and spun them into the ground, but her nose was bleeding freely now, dripping onto her white shirt.
"I can't hold this!" Nyx yelled over the roar of the barrage. "Thorne brought a battalion!"
Joy and Tayo slid into cover, Joy firing blind over the ridge with her stolen rifle, the recoil jerking her shoulder back every time.
"We're fish in a barrel!" Joy shouted. "A glass barrel!"
Rin looked at his HUD. His mana was zero, but next to his name, Leo's bar was full.
