Landon dove safely behind a thick brick chimney. He was breathing hard. The cold air burned his lungs. The sharp pain in his broken rib was getting worse with every step he took.

"Where is the main antenna, Claire?" Landon asked, wiping freezing snow from his dark eyes.

"It is straight ahead of you," Claire guided him smoothly. "You have to cross fifty yards of open roof. Then, you have to climb a tall, metal spiral staircase to reach the highest platform. General Rauth is standing on that plat

    Bright, blinding, glorious golden light poured through the cracks in the heavy steel doors. "What is that?!" Claire gasped, covering her eyes from the bright light. Outside the massive doors, the Vanguard team had executed their perfect, desperate plan. Marcus had driven the stolen, heavy Iron Order hover-tank directly up to the gates. Jin and Sera had hacked the glowing purple runes on the wall. They found the exact, tiny weak spot in the dead-god magic shield. "Fire the cannon, Marcus!" Jin had screamed. Marcus pulled the trigger on the massive tank. BOOM! A giant, heavy artillery shell slammed into the steel door, severely weakening the physical metal. At the exact same millisecond, Kade raised his rocket launcher. Juno had poured every single drop of her life-giving, golden healing magic into the explosive rocket. She collapsed in the snow, totally exhausted, but the rocket glowed like a tiny sun. "Eat this, Rauth!" Kade roared. Kade fired the golden rocket. The rocket

    "Ayo!" Marcus called out to the brave teenager. "Did you see any heavy vehicles when we marched here?" "Yes, Mr. Marcus!" Ayo nodded quickly. "There is a broken Iron Order hover-tank stuck in a snowbank about a mile back down the road! The soldiers abandoned it!" "Take me to it right now!" Marcus roared. Marcus and Ayo sprinted away through the deep snow, heading to steal the heavy tank. "Jin, Sera!" Kade commanded. "Get your computers ready! When Marcus gets back with that tank, I need you to hack the door's magical frequency. Find the weakest spot in the steel for us to shoot!" "We are on it!" Jin said, sitting in the snow and typing furiously. Kade stood in front of the massive black doors. He held the glowing golden rocket in his hands. He stared at the thick steel. "Hold on, Landon," Kade whispered to the freezing wind. "We are coming to get you." Inside the terrifying, red-lit courtyard of Bastion, Landon Hale was fighting for his life. He swung the heavy, fifty-pound st

    Sera knelt right next to her, holding a small radio antenna up to get a better signal. "Jin, what is happening to the walls?!" Marcus roared, gripping his heavy automatic shotgun. Jin stared at her glowing computer screen. Her eyes went completely wide in horror. "General Rauth is turning the entire fortress into a massive magical bomb!" Jin screamed. "He is pumping dead-god magic into the steel walls! When the magic reaches one hundred percent, the walls will explode! The blast will vaporize everything within a hundred miles! We will all be turned to dust!" The crowd of civilians gasped in pure terror. People began to cry. Some turned around, looking back toward the snowy highway, wanting to run away. "We have to run!" a frightened man yelled. "If we run now, we might escape the explosion!" "No!" Kade roared at the top of his lungs. Kade turned around and faced the massive crowd. The scarred fighter looked absolutely furious. His eyes burned with fierce loyalty. "Landon Hale

    The massive, two-hundred-foot-tall black steel doors slammed completely shut. BOOM! The sound was incredibly loud. It sounded like the heavy lid of a giant coffin slamming down. The heavy metal locks clicked into place with a terrifying, final clack sound.Landon Hale and Claire Arden were trapped inside Bastion. They were completely cut off from the freezing, snowy world outside. They were cut off from their friends. They were cut off from the massive civilian army they had built. Landon stood in the absolute, pitch-black darkness. He was breathing heavily. His massive chest rose and fell. His body was completely exhausted. His Kinetic Echo magic was entirely drained. He was just a normal, tired, broken man. But he did not feel alone. He felt a small, warm hand gently grab his thick fingers in the dark. "I am right here, Landon," Claire whispered softly. Her voice was steady, brave, and full of deep love. Landon squeezed her hand tightly. "I know, Claire. Stay close to me." S

    Landon reached out his large, glowing white hands. He gently placed his palms directly onto the man's chest, right over the glowing purple relic core buried in his skin. Landon pushed a tiny, careful vibration of pure white magic into the stone. The purple stone shattered harmlessly into gray dust. The man gasped loudly. The black color instantly vanished from his eyes. The purple veins faded away. He fell to his knees in the snow, completely free from Rauth's mind control. "Thank you," the man wept, looking up at Landon's glowing face. "Go to my team. They will keep you safe," Landon whispered kindly. Landon turned and walked deeper into the crowd. He touched a crying mother. Her purple stone turned to dust. She was free. He touched a terrified teenager. He was free. Landon moved beautifully through the crowd. He was a beacon of pure, healing light. He used his incredible magic not to destroy, but to cure. Every single time he shattered a purple stone, it drained a massive a

    "I am fine," Landon grunted, wiping sweat from his eyes. "Keep moving. We are almost at the gates." The massive civilian army cheered as the giant cannons exploded. They raised their weapons and marched faster. The fear was gone. They felt completely invincible. They marched until they were standing exactly one hundred yards away from the towering, pitch-black gates of Bastion. The massive black wall loomed over them. The toxic purple magic hummed loudly in their ears. The shadow of the giant Deep One monster shifted in the sky above the fortress. Landon stood at the front of the army. He stared at the giant black doors. "General Rauth!" Landon roared. His deep voice echoed against the dark steel walls. "Your outer cities are liberated! Your armies are broken! Your supply lines are ashes! Come out and face me, you coward!" For a long, agonizing minute, there was absolute, perfect silence. The wind howled. The snow fell. And then, a loud, heavy, terrifying sound echoed from deep
