Sam saw a bright flash, and tapped all the speed he could. The world slowed to a crawl, the dogs in the distance were silent, and the leaves blowing through the air hung in place.
It was an eerie place, but Sam was used to dealing with it. What he wasn’t used to was the four columns of fire coming towards him and the others.
He sprinted as fast as he could, and pushed his companions out of the way. He quickly burned through all of his steel reserves, and the world snapped back to normal.
The four fire blasts rushed right into where they had all been just milliseconds before. They struck the street behind them and exploded in a massive fireball.
Sam slumped to the ground and started to shake at the physical exertion he had just been through. He reached a shaking hand down to his belt to try and grab a vial of steel but to his horror, his last vial was broken and empty. He was stuck defenseless and weakened.
