"7
sins, 7 skies, 7 seas, 7 in a rainbow, 7 dimensions and 7 my shoe
size." Alice said to no one in particular. Hesh, bless him, had already
engaged with fighting the shadows. They could have rested until the
Reapers moved. Alice saw Iyana checking her cellphone, then returned to
the charging shadows that were about to annihilate them. With a deep
breath, she spoke.
"You warrior girl (Misaki), I like your moves, you're with me. Explosive
temper guy (Hesh) and Mustache (Prem) use long range weapons on the
Reapers while we provide you a clear shot, Tamsin will cover you;
Twinkly eyes (Aquilas) and Ms.Sensitive (Iyana)," She scratched her
neck.
"Stick together and try to get a Reaper. If you can't, reduce the number
of shadows. Let one attack while the other defends, back-to-back, got
it?" Alice advised.
Turning to the approaching army, Alice said something that wasn't
heard by anyone. "Such army. Much shadows. Wow."
Alice held up a memory crystal of hers she hadn't used, and it
immediately attracted the shadows. She and Misaki ran ahead, not caring
for what came their way.
Alice took out her dagger and wielded it mercilessly, using the momentum
from one slash to power another and took out her revolver when she saw
shadows coming in a lined up formation, using a single bullet with
amazing accuracy to kill a dozen shadows at a time.
A reaper also came for them but Alice cut away it's bony arms while
Misaki slashed through it's spine, dividing it into two. A realization
struck Alice.
"Guys! Aim for the spinal cord! try to dislodge the skull!" She yelled
hoarsely. The last reaper they took down, it didn't disappear into
nothing until the skull was destroyed.
