Alyssa screamed as the explosion took place, instinctively dropping to her knees and shielding her head with her hands. Shivering from fear and uncertainty, she slowly began to gather herself and stood up. [b]"Pl-please all remain calm. We will all get out here. We just need to get out of this cave and call for.... help..."[/b] She was distracted and cut off as she heard a noise from the entrance to the cave they were in. The sound of metal grinding against metal. Not even seconds later, someone stepped into view. He was tall, over seven feet tall, clad in pitch black, medieval armour with ominous, red light shining through his visor. On his hip, strapped to a belt, was a long sword as tall as the giant man himself. Alyssa's breath was caught in her throat. Something inside her knew this newcomer, this absurd knight clad in black, was dangerous. Something within her told he was a threat to them all. That he might kill her, and all her wards, on a whim. Sweat poured down her face as she gritted her teeth. She then took stand between all her students and this mysterious knight. [b]"D-don't come closer! Stay away!"[/b] She screamed, feeling impotent as ever before this tall stranger. But within her, the rage she felt before began to bubble and foam, intent on being released in full force.
