Jared wrapped his arms around Allie and tried to remain calm. The only thing that he could think about, however, was the fact that his brother had disappeared in there, and they hadn't seen a wink of him since. It couldn't have been that long ago, sure, but it was getting agonizing. "I am glad I have you two, too," he whispered as he pulled them close. He wasn't sure how he would be coping if he didn't have them to turn to.
William glared, but it wasn't like he had much fight. How could the being be so evil and so cruel? Then again, how could anyone be anything. "Don't hurt her," William said through gritted teeth. But what could he do? He couldn't fight, not without his powers. "Let them go, and we can all go about our merry way," he insisted. He would have missed it if he hadn't been looking but a shadow passed his peripheral. A moment later, an arrow came flying at the figure. "What the...," William whispered, squinting into the dimness. Whoever had shot the arrow had been quick enough to pass by him without him knowing. But where was he and why could he not pinpoint him. "Let them go, bugs brain," a voice snapped. William could only guess it was the boy he saw.
