Chapter Twenty-Seven

I feel a pain on the left side of my thigh. Looking down, I see that one of those little fuckers just stuck me. Leeha said she had the perfect spot to learn hunting, but fucking hell. Why am I fighting things that look like rabbits with horns?

I put my hand over the horned rabbit’s head, and I say, “Air Bullet.” Suddenly a hole appears in it’s head. It flops once, making me wince, and then it goes limp against my pant leg. I reach down and pull it away quickly.

You have used the spell Air Bullet. You have used 10 points of power.

Leeha comes running up to me, takes the rabbit, and puts it into a bag on her hip. “You need to think quicker than that, Alex. Otherwise, you will be a pincushion,” she says with a laugh.

“I know!” I tell her in frustration. I have six wounds now. But thanks to Bridget, they get healed up quickly. Which still amazes Leeha, that I can do healing through my Elemental.

 “You keep saying the words out loud. Why not just think of them?” Leeha asks me.

“I guess I assumed it looked more badass to say them out loud,” I tell her with an embarrassed smile.

“It doesn’t if my partner keeps getting punctured,” she says with a raised eyebrow.

“I agree,” Bridget giggles.

She is next to me but is in her Wind form, since that is the spell I am using. All I can see of her is an outline, with air currents moving around inside it. She said she finds it easier to be in this form when I am using magic, since it allows her to pull more of the elements from around her. Whatever that means. Maybe she is harvesting it from around her, like sucking it up? I wish I knew more about how magic worked!

“Fine, let’s try the other way then. Quietly and in my mind,” I tell her with a sigh as I look her way.

Bridget walks over to me, places her hand on my leg where the damn horned rabbit injured me, and I can feel healing power coming from her. What is odd is I can feel the power physically leaving my Chakra at the top of my head. It’s not that it feels funny. It’s just a feeling that is there.

We have been hunting these things now for the last three hours. Horned rabbits are one of the oddities in this world compared to mine. They are meat-eaters, they attack things, and are aggressive. They use their horns to attack, and while they normally don’t attack large targets like me, I have been making them do it so that I can cast spells at them.

We would walk until we saw one, and then Leeha would have me shoot an air bullet at the ground in front of them, close, but not hitting them. This action would make them angry, and they would attack me. My job was to shoot a spell at them as they zigzagged toward me. I am finding out that the problem with trying to say the words out loud like I am some kind of anime character shouting some word of power, is that Bridget keeps having to heal me over and over. Instead of sounding cool, I was getting hurt. Speed is what I needed, and since I can think quicker than I can speak. Internal dialog it will be.

We all hear a noise to our left, and as I turn to it, I see the bushes move. Leeha looks at me and covers her mouth. Sighing, I nod, getting it. Shut the fuck up. Looking back at the bush, I send an Air Bullet to land in front it. But instead of a horned rabbit coming out, something bigger emerges. Much bigger.

I stare at the thing in horror. It’s about the size of a grizzly bear, but it looks more like a rat, with large teeth, enormous claws that are digging up the ground, and red eyes.

Leeha grabs my arms and tries to pull me away. “Alex! We need to run! That’s a Fire Rat!”

“A what?” I ask her, confused.

She is still pulling my arm, so I follow her and we begin to run. Bridget is floating next to me, keeping up with me. Damn, the life of an Elemental. Leeha screams as we are running, “That thing is a Fire Rat. I don’t know what it’s doing here! It should not be in Lamor Forest. They are usually near the Lake of Ruins in the cave system there. We need to get away from them,” she says, and there is desperation in her voice.

“What is so dangerous about them?” I shout, avoiding a branch, but missing the next one and getting hit in the face, which leaves a stinging sensation on my cheek.

“They,” Leeha begins, but suddenly a small fireball hits the tree ahead of us and to our left, causing it to explode from the impact.

“They shoot fireballs?” I say in disbelief. What the fuck? How the hell can a rat shoot a fucking fireball?

“Yeah, they shoot fireballs. Fire Rats are slow, but they don’t need to be fast if one of their fireballs hits you,” she says, dodging around the tree that just exploded.

“Can’t we fight it?” I ask her, starting to get winded.

Fucking new body. Even a short sprint like this and I am running out of breath. Then again, in my old body I would have been huffing and puffing if I even thought of running.

“It usually takes a group to fight one. That one, I would say, is older, so it’s stronger. I can tell by the scars on its side. It’s been in a lot of fights and survived.”

“How do you fight it?” Maybe something she says will give me an idea?

“We would each take shots at it, making it go after different targets, and we would then whittle it down.”

“Wait, are you
