Geeze, this was fun. Eli had lost his footing for a second as the ground shook, but he gained it back as he noticed the darkness pooling under him. Uh oh. Dancing back a bit and hoping he wouldn't be stepped on while his attention was divided, he raised his sword, waiting for one of the creepers to pounce.
It didn't take long. At least three sprang out of the ground at the same time, or close to it; Eli was too busy swinging and dodging to actually compare. He got the first two fairly easily, but the third surprised him and actually managed to get onto his back, latching scrabbling hands around his neck. Okay, time to panic. Without thinking about it, his fire spell flared to life and he twisted his head around as he brought up his hand, not wanting to set his hair on fire. The flames engulfed the Shadow, killing it.
"Ha! Who's next?"
He glanced around at the others, then groaned. Stupid question.
