When it rains...
Skyler glanced toward the scenery outside before glancing every so slightly toward Talys and Amra. Talys didn't even turn as he launched two regular arrows in Skyler's direction, hitting the exposed side of the door frame nearby. "We'll get to you in a moment, Skyler. Just wait your turn." Skyler blinked. "I thought you wanted to talk?" Talys didn't even turn as his back legs kicked, sending something flying from behind him. Therzana barely made a sound as blood came out of her mouth when she was revealed by the surprise attack. As she laid upon the floor gasping for air, Amra walked over to her, delivering the final blow, causing her body to go limp.
Skyler winced when he saw that. He turned, resting his back against the wall as his heart began to race. Talys' voice called out. "Sorry about that. I had to focus to find your sneaky friend. Aw, she was pretty too. That's a shame." Skyler could feel his blood starting to boil. He honestly couldn't remember the last time he had gotten angry. Let alone this angry. "You want me? You got me." He got up and started to run outside. That was when Yori's voice rang out from above. "Arise and consume these fools!" Roughly ten skeletons and zombies arose from the ground and started to attack Amra and Talys.
Skyler's eyes widened as he started to make his way around the undead. 'Good. They are distracted.' Although Talys was slightly surprised, he managed to shoot and kill four of the zombies with only a couple of arcane arrows. Amra started to chuckle. "Aren't you an unlucky kitty." He pulled out a small book. "By the power of my Lord and Savior, return the fallen back to where they lay!" A bright golden yellow light emanated from the tome, returning all of the skeletons to ash whereas three of the zombies were destroyed, leaving a total of three zombies.
The three zombies ran over to Amra, biting and clawing at him. He yelled out in pain, but with a flick of his left wrist, a golden two-handed mace appeared. He swung it, taking out the remaining zombies with a single strike. By this time, Skyler had managed to get behind Amra to launch his first attack, casting Edgelord since he was so angry. Charging his next two strikes with additional fire damage. "Ahhh!" - 50 Mp, 32 (Str), 250% + 100% = 350% (Angry), 32 + 20% (All dmg up) = 38 (38.4), 38 + 350% (Fire damage) = 38 Physical damage, 133 Fire damage (100 Overkill), 160 xp, $5,612,314.79, and Tome of the Light

Skyler's Hp: 272/272
Mp: 202/252
Talys' Hp: 291/291
Mp: 105/105
Yori's Hp: 125/125
Mp: 200/260
The resulting explosion of fire engulfed Amra's form, quickly reducing him to ash. A new red exclamation flashed which Skyler was too busy to notice. Talys lifted his bow, turning it toward Skyler. "Monster!" His score dropped to - 5 while letting three arcane arrows fly. This kicked in Skyler's passive from Swiftness, slowing down time for the next two seconds, beginning its one minute cooldown. He was able to avoid two of the arrows, but the third one struck his right shoulder. 99 - 11% (Mana Res) = 88 (88.11), - 88 Hp The shear **** threw him off balance, but he managed to rebalance himself just as time returned to normal.
Skyler's Hp: 184/272
Mp: 202/252
Talys' Hp: 291/291
Mp: 105/105
Yori's Hp: 125/125
Mp: 200/260
Yori launched five bolts of negative energy at Talys. Simultaneously, Skyler's fist was inches away from Talys' side. Talys managed to turn, kicking Skyler with both of his hind hooves while rushing out of the way of Yori's attack. 45 x 2 = 90, 90 - 11% = 80 (80.1), - 80 Hp Skyler was sent flying back a few feet. He clutched his chest since it felt like a few of his ribs should have cracked. 'Fuck me. I never want to be kicked by a centaur again...' While running away from Skyler, Talys started to fire arcane arrows at Yori. Skyler watched Talys as he tried to focus on his breathing. 'He's almost out of arcane arrows.'
Skyler's Hp: 104/272
Mp: 202/252
Talys' Hp: 291/291
Mp: 105/105
Yori's Hp: 125/125
Mp: 150/260
A few seconds later, Skyler heard a scream, followed by glass shattering as Yori was hit by an arcane arrow. A mere second later, Talys turned around to fire his last three arcane arrows at Skyler. Skyler knew within that moment that he couldn't avoid those arrows at his current speed. He cast Swiftness, doubling his speed for the next ten seconds. - 25 Mp Within that moment, he was able to narrowly escape the arcane arrows by a hair. Talys smiled. "I can see why Shady was interested in you. You may look weak, but you're pretty resilient."
Skyler's Hp: 104/272
Mp: 202/252
Talys' Hp: 291/291
Mp: 105/105
Yori's Hp: 19/125
Mp: 150/260
Talys' right front hoof started to scratch at the ground as he leaned his head slightly forward. "Oh shit. Is that a **** collar around your neck?" He started to laugh pretty hard. "I have to admit. It's a good look for a bitch like you. I should tell Shady she could have bought you for the right price." Skyler glared at Talys. "Says the one caught up with a woman that isn't into him." Talys' score sank to - 37. "I didn't like you before, but now. I want to see you suffer." He moved his right hand to his bow string. "Arcane Volley."
Skyler's Hp: 104/272
Mp: 202/252
Talys' Hp: 291/291
Mp: 80/105
Yori's Hp: 18/125
Mp: 150/260
Talys' let go of the bow string, unleashing five arcane arrows outward in a cone. Skyler dropped to his right side, narrowly avoiding the arrows. However, his speed increased from Swiftness ran out, causing him to not be able to react in time as he hit the floor hard. 10 - 11% = 9 (8.9), - 9 Hp Talys grinned as he pulled out two arrows from his quiver. "Looks like you're almost out of steam. I'm going to have fun torturing you before you die." He said as he launched those arrows, hitting Skyler's legs just below the kneecaps. 41 - 11% = 36 (36.49), 36 x 2 = - 72 Hp
Skyler's Hp: 33/272
Mp: 203/252
Talys' Hp: 291/291
Mp: 80/105
Yori's Hp: 17/125
Mp: 150/260
Skyler let out a hiss as both of his kneecaps filled with pain. His legs felt like they were on fire. That was when he noticed the exclamation from earlier, allowing it to pop up.

When Skyler read that ability, he was reminded of the other move he had just learned, Shadow Dance. The pain he once felt was fading as Talys approached. Talys glanced at Amra's ashes before returning his focus to Skyler. His score dropped to - 53. "I will make you suffer, Skyler." Talys put away his bow. Skyler cast Shadow Dance, causing him to vanish from sight. - 75 Mp Talys took a couple of steps back before a smirk crept upon his lips. "Good, good. I wouldn't want this to be over just yet..." He lifted up a hand into the air. "Flare!" A red ball of light shot out of his hand, illuminating the area around him within a 5 yd radius. "You'll be made visible if the light touches you. Good luck getting to me."
Skyler's Hp: 45/284
Mp: 128/252
Talys' Hp: 291/291
Mp: 75/105
Yori's Hp: 17/125
Mp: 150/260
Skyler only had four more seconds to work with before the effect wore off. Should he risk it all and rush in? The ability said he would be invisible and undetectable for the duration. Or should he try and use his head? Perhaps using a different ability like Gravity or Wind Strike to reduce his risk?

Odd side of the Abyss
Are you ready to begin?
We'll be looking at Skyler Peterson's life as he is dragged into the world of the Abyss. He is a depressed man with a lot against him, if only in his own mind. The main character is based on myself. This will be an outlet to help me vent such frustrations. This should help my readers understand me a bit better, but more importantly. I hope everyone who reads it enjoys it. :3
