saying you would kite it?” I ask her incredulously.

“What is kite?” she asks me, saying the word in English. I have noticed that she has gotten better at repeating the English words I say.

“What you just explained,” I huff out to her, trying to catch my breath. “You would attack it but not let it hit you. Bring its health down until it dies.”

“Yes! But we don’t have that option,” she says.

“Why not?” I ask her. Shit, I need to figure something out, as it’s getting harder and harder to breathe.

“Because there are only two of us,” she shouts, just as another fireball comes at us. Thankfully it ends up flying between the two of us, and I can feel the heat as it passes and falls to the ground, rolling. Rolling? As we go by it, making sure not to touch it, I see it’s a fucking rock with some kind of flammable substance on it. What the fuck? Does the thing have rocks and tar in its stomach?

“We aren’t two!” I shout at her, “we are three.”

Leeha quickly looks at me sideways in surprise, then looks up at Bridget, who is floating next to me, keeping up still.

“It might work!” she says after thinking about it. “But can Bridget do magic on her own?”

“Oh shit,” I blurt out. I look over at my floating Elemental. “Can you?”

“I can if you tell me to. What’s the plan?” Bridget says, excitement in her voice.

“All right. Can you use the same Element as me? Or if I wanted to use Mind to see if I can confuse it, can you use Fire?” I ask her.

“Sure, I can switch to Fire. You need to tell me to use Fire. Why Fire if we are fighting a Fire Rat?” Bridget asks me, confused.

“Because if I am right, that rodent has filled up its belly with something like tar. I want you, Leeha, to hit it with your Water Arrows. What I will do is use Mind Arrows and distract it—hopefully confusing. But I want you, Leeha, to hit it in the face. We need to get it to open its mouth,” I say.

“Its mouth?” Leeha says, baffled by my request.

“Yep,” I tell her with a big grin. “So that Bridget can fire a Fireball of her own down its throat.”

“What?” she asks me with a frown.

“Kaboom!” I say, miming an explosion.

Leeha’s eyes widen in surprise, and then she laughs. “That might work!” she says with a grin of her own.

“Bridget, Fire.” And the floating air Elemental next to me switches to a Fire one. But she is running now. Oh? So she can only float as an Air Elemental? Interesting.

Focusing, I think Mind to get this plan into action. Looking behind me, I see the Fire Rat about twenty feet behind us, its claws digging into the ground as it chases us.

Now, let’s see. I aim behind me and think, Confusion Arrow. Suddenly a purple arrow leaves my hand and shoots straight for the Fire Rat, hitting it right in the left front shoulder. It slows down and shakes its head.

You have used the spell Confusion Arrow. You have used 10 points of power.

“Bridget, you’re with me,” Leeha cries and peels away from me.

“With you!” Bridget yells out with a laugh, running to follow her in her Fire form.

I turn to face the Fire Rat. It’s pawing the ground, and from here I can tell its eyes have a muddled look. Three seconds later, the eyes clear and it looks back up. It sees me and starts coming at me again. Suddenly, it squeals in pain and turns around to whatever was attacking it from behind. It’s Leeha. She had shot it with a Water Arrow.

Before it can run after her, I shoot another Confusion Arrow at it, making it shake its head. But the confusion doesn’t last as long this time, and shortly after, it turns around and comes at me. Shit! That one didn’t last long. Can this thing resist my spells? Great, it’s like a fucking game with monsters having a resist bonus.

You have used the spell Confusion Arrow. You have used 10 points of power.

I turn around and run, hoping to put some distance between it and me before Leeha or Bridget can fire something new at it. I can hear it huffing as it chases me.

“Alex, duck!” I hear from behind me. Without waiting or wondering why, I throw myself to the ground. Just in time apparently, as over my head flies a fucking rock fireball, whistling in the air above me. I scramble up off the ground quickly, knowing it hasn’t shot two in a row yet. Although knowing my luck, I might be finding out that it’s a ‘special’ ability of Fire Rats.

Hearing a squeal of pain again, I dare to take a quick look behind me and I see that the Fire Rat has turned around and is facing away from me. I point my hand at it again and shoot another Confusion Arrow. This time, it paws the ground in bewilderment, and the spell lasts longer than a second or two. Suddenly I see two Water Arrows come at it from somewhere in the forest. The Fire Rat screams in pain, opening its mouth.

Faster than I could have imagined, a Fire Arrow zips through the air and goes right down into its mouth. Even from where I am, I can hear the Fire Rat cough in surprise. It has stopped running and is looking around in a panic. Does it know what is about to happen to it? The Fire Rat heaves its chest, almost like it is trying to throw up. Yep, it knows, I think with a grin.

I walk towards it slowly, with my hand extended towards it in case I need to shoot it with a Confusion Arrow, and I stop about ten feet away from it.

“What does the Fire Rat say?” I say to it with a grin.

The Fire Rat
