"The Return of Zombom" by precious_katuch14
Zombom grunted as he propped himself up on one elbow. Pain shot through his body from his arm, radiating into every part of him. He looked around at the scorch marks on the stone floor, the chairs and tables either knocked over or obliterated, the piles of bones that were all that remained of the skeleton warriors. Grimacing, he craned his neck to look at the ceiling that had been blown apart; the wreckage had created a small but constant shower of debris and dust, not unlike the dripping of water from a stalactite. He glanced over his shoulder at the magical orb he had built to come and go from his tower to White River, and back. As he sat up, he groaned, clutching his stomach. Gritting his teeth, he tried to say a healing spell, but it only patched him up enough for him to be able to stand; the Elephante was still in agony, and he limped his first few steps toward the magical teleportation orb.
