The Hunt Chapter 5: Setuh's fight

Gunshots were fired behind Setuh as she flew. She didn’t look back, didn’t stop flying. All she did was just fly to leave the soldiers behind. The more she flew, the more she panicked. The more she panicked, the more she sweated. And the more she sweated, the more focused on staying alive she became. She still heard spells being cast, gunshots, and cries of fury, but she didn’t dare to slow down and look back.

Eventually, the violent sounds became more distant and unheard. No footsteps were heard too. Upon knowing this, Setuh slowed down, gradually stopped, and landed safely. Slowly, she took a deep breath.

“Ok, I did not think that through…”, she admitted.
“There’s no other way that I could outrun these guys. In the end, they’ll find me. So this time I’m actually gonna fight them.”

She closed her eyes. She thought for a few seconds. She opened her eyes. The Yellow Lady then cracked her knuckles, as she knew she was ready to kick their asses.

In the meantime, the soldiers, who stopped chasing Setuh, were creeping slowly. Most of them were breathing noisily.

“Has anyone got a bo’oh o’ wo’er I can ‘ave?”, asked a soldier.
“Don’t worry, I got one.”, said another with a bottle in her hands.
“Thanks!”.

While he drinks from the bottle, another soldier got his binoculars out. He saw through them and saw the Yellow Lady stomping towards them a few hundred miles away.

“Everyone! Target! Straight ahead! 12 o’ clock!”, he alerted everyone after taking off the binoculars.

Soon, everyone prepared. Even the man gave the bottle back to his colleague and got his sword out. They were about to face an enemy, who is a member of a team that should be reckoned with. At the same time, Setuh, herself, was about to face a band of 35 soldiers who have the power to just jump someone like her.

Nevertheless, she fought a lot of people before in her lifetime. Therefore, fighting an army by herself wouldn’t be a tremendous problem, right? She never fought one alone before: she usually fights armies with the rest of the trio. She felt anxious, so she made an invisible barrier in front of her.

“There’s no point in turning back now. “, she talked to herself.

Shortly, her walk became a run. She couldn’t believe she was doing this. She quickly hovered into the air and zoomed towards the soldiers.

“FIRE!”, a soldier yelled.

And the army shot. The invisible barrier blocked the bullets. Swordsmen ran towards the yellow lady, and slashed through the barrier. She swiftly avoided the next few cuts and gave out an almighty push, sending swordsmen flying to a few bushes.

Magicians teleported behind and shot out a few ice shards at her. She turned around and made another shield. As the shards made contact, the shield broke. Setuh fell backwards from the shock. Lying on her back, she saw the magicians cooking up another spell to be thrown at her.

Setuh checked her bearings and found a large rock next to her. With her telekinesis, she carried it and threw it towards the troops. As she got up, a gun reloaded behind her. Ten soldiers had their guns aimed at their victim. But before they had a chance to shoot with her back turned to them, Setuh threw the rock at them, eventually crushing every bone in their body.

...
...
...

Setuh stared at every fallen soldier. Holy shit. Every troop was either slaughtered or knocked out. No one else was left alive. She won. She survived.
