Lasta Coop A Planet Without Weather Part Six

 The Tower 

They ran and ran. Lasta tried her best to keep up but her legs just could not move fast enough. She knew that if she did not find a way to keep up then they would be forced to stop. This would let Salynara and Otb down, or worse, lead then to their deaths!

That was when she felt a hand yank her up. She looked to her right to see the Weatherless that she had just set free. She then noticed that they were all running towards the crystal obelisk.

That was when a Weatherless came out of nowhere and Otb shot at him. That was when Lasta noticed the pile of rocks. Lasta pulled out one of the guns and fired at the rocks. Smashing them long before they could hit them. She looked and spotted one coming to the right. She shot. Her eyes look around, forwards, side, side back. She shot that one. She spotted that there was one near Otb's head and shot it.

“Good shot.”

“Thank you!"

They looked to the right as Salynara killed three Weatherless with a bolt of light that burnt through their heads. Then she spotted a rock coming towards her. Which, she stopped. She shot it in the centre but it was driven back. She shot another and it was soon driven back further and further. Then it suddenly dived at her and landed a kick.

She looked back as she saw another rock coming at her. She shot it. She shrugged and she smiled as they reached the obelisk.

The Weatherless put her down.

“Will you be alright?"

“Should be." She replied as she looked at it.

She then ran to Otb and Salynara.

“Are you alright?”

Salynara chuckled.

“Look at you being concerned!” She said mockingly. “You learning your lesson?”

“Yes."

“Are you sure? I mean you did let that Weatherless carry you while we were running.”

“I’m sorry Mistress Salynara. I was just too slow and he picked me up!” She had to admit. 

She slapped her.

“Do not ever get help ever again or I will put you through more nightmares!”

Lasta dropped her arms and nodded. She felt a lump in her throat and swallowed. She could feel the tears coming but she felt that if she would show them then it would draw attention to her.

“For that you will have no gun!” She snapped, taking them both off her.

How can I defend myself?

She looked down.

“How’s she supposed to-”

“If you are so concerned with her you defend her!”

His lip curled as he looked down at the girl.

They opened the door and there were thirty Weatherless on the other end. Salynara pulled out a long and silver dagger and raced in as she threw out a blast of fire from her hand. She ran on and stabbed one after the other. Then once the coast was clear she sent a stream of smoke from her palm. Then as each of them breathed in the smoke, they coughed and coughed. Soon blood came out of their mouth and they soon fell. She ran on and stabbed one after the other as they coughed up their blood before they could even think.

That was when a group of Weatherless ran up to Lasta. Otb shot one after the other. Then she felt herself being yanked back. She screamed and turned around. She punched the Weatherless in the nose. He let go and as she fell she punched his chin. She punched again and again and again as she fell lower and lower. 

She was grabbed back again. She went in and went for a punch but her fist was caught. She knew that she could be killed by him. She thrust her foot into his throat. She then punched him with her free hand again and again as fast as she could as she fell. Then a blast hit his head.

She looked back to see that the Weatherless were all dead.

“Come on. There’ll be more upstairs." 

They nodded as they ran up the wide stairs. They ran on and on. She tripped and quickly got up before Salynara could notice and ran on. She finally came to the first floor.

There Salynara let out a cloud of black smoke. She spotted the lasers pointing at them. Then Lasta heard the coughing and a Weatherless charged at them. Otb shot a beam at him. Then another, he too, almost arrived at the group before he fell. This was followed by two more and Otb hit both of them. They heard more and more of the Weatherless falling. One after the other. Once the cloud was clear, they were all dead.

“You were saying?” Otb said, sarcastically. 

“For that you will be the one that will be taking out the next floor.”

“Fine!”

They then ran up the stairs. When they reached the next floor, he counted ten Weatherless around a table, playing with a set of dice and cards. He, before they had the chance to notice them, fired at each and everyone. 

“Next one!”

Salynara looked at Lasta and smirked. She looked away as she felt a pounding in her head as she heard the sound of her own heart in her ears. She could feel herself shaking as she felt the tears in her eyes.

“No. She's not armed!”

“I'll do the next one.

“Fine! But for that she will do the top one!”

Lasta nodded as she felt something dying inside of her as her heart grew cold. 

They ran on and on. They came to a high and wide room where people were eating. Otb openfired as fast and as accurate as she could. He knew that he did not want any of them to have time to move, let alone think!

Once he was done they ran on and on. Lasta could feel her thighs and calves were aching. She knew that if she did not take a break, then she would trip again. But she dated not to ask. In fact, the only thing that was keeping her going was the fear of what would happen once she fell. 

They soon came to the next floor. Salynara summoned her death cloud. Soon more and more were dead. Then they came to the last room. To Salynara’s dismay, there was none there.

That was when Lasta laid eyes upon the most beautiful large orb that she had ever seen. As she looked closer, she noticed that it looked like the fairy orbs, just way bigger.
