บท 93: Only Move Forward

I don't know if anybody else heard them, but I clearly heard a loud, 

"RETREAT!" 

Come from above. 

The ice users all quickly backed up into the smoky top of the building, disappearing into the murky night sky. 

Sirens created by passing ambulance echoed through my ear, and the police with government officials had quickly arrived. 

Dressed in black suits, they all proceeded to direct us towards the exit of the city, where everybody had evacuated. 

All of the teachers and kids were here… besides one… The Spear Theory teacher. 

And just as we were all compacted into one large group amongst the flood of people, a single man who looked to be an adventurer came up to us with a man in his arms. 

He laid limp and showed no signs of life. 

His eyes were wide open as if he had seen something horrific just before his death, and his mouth had been locked open, signaling the screaming he had let out before dying.
