Nox felt another man grab the power inside of them. The world burned in front of them. A man stood before a burning chup and Nox smiled. It was time to hunt. Dane had already taken steps to become a weapon. He laughed and Nox had to block the laughter out. He had to trust Dane not to turn on him.
Nox unfurled the whip from his fingers and it snapped another chup's neck and when he yanked it slide through it like butter leaving nothing but a stump and a head to thud to the ground. Nox grabbed the man who obviously had no idea what was going on and thrust him behind him. "Stay behind me. Let us handle it."
Nox knew that these were not the only ones here. Chupa's hunted in packs. They weren't alone. Nox could hear the skittering of claws on rock and dirt. "More are coming."
Nox ignored the chup that was still writhing in pain as Dane tortured it. It could be worse, it could be the other man with them.
Around the corner came three more chups. Nox could hear more coming behind it. Maybe 5 or six in addition to these three. Nox formed multiple weaves - fireballs, a wall of air, he sank his gift into the earth ready to bring the tunnel in front of them down on top of the creatures at last resort. Nox threw a fully formed fireball at the first one and watched as it fell into another behind it but it didn't stop it from advancing over it's dead foes.
