flail around, trying to put out the flames. I had a hard time getting up. I was losing too much blood and I wouldn’t last very long. I marched over to the prince. I raised my sword, ready to attack, when I was knocked back into the invisible net covering us both. Shaking my head, I looked back at him.
“Did you think it would be so easy to kill Irritum?” he asked, getting back on his feet.
“Yeah I did. Actually, I am going to show you,” I threw back at him, getting back up again.
For a brief moment, I almost lost my footing and fell back, but quickly pushed up. I was getting weaker; I needed to finish this soon. He lifted his hands and the air around me was sucked away.
Okay, now would be the time to start stressing.
I couldn’t breathe; the air around me was missing in action. I looked around, searching for Chax in the chaos.. The Fallen were having a hard time dealing with all the demons. It looked like there were two demons for each Fallen. I found Max in his hellhound form, slicing off the head of an adversary. Next to him was Nanini, throwing light bombs at the demons that were attacking them.
Chax!, I need Chax .
My eyes searched the scene, looking for him. When my eyes found him, my heart almost stopped. He was on one knee, trying to defend himself against a whole group of demons. And he wasn’t looking good at all. Fear coursed through me as I gazed around, taking in our current predicament.
“NO!” I screamed with the little air I still had left inside of me.
Chapter 9
Something was happening; a buzzing started from my toes and worked its way upwards. As it spread, I could feel that part of me rejuvenated. When at last I felt “complete” I took whatever strength I had and let it rip. The air cocoon holding me ripped away in a blast. I could see its webbing disbursing into the air. I took in a deep breath, and without knowing what the hell I was doing, slammed my fist with all my force into the ground. The earth shook and the prince lost his footing. I moved with lightning speed, one swipe and I knew I didn't have to look back. He was toast. My fear for Chax drove me through the net and straight to the demons attacking him.
I sliced at them, the fury bubbling from my pores. Blood splashed across my face and torso. Screams sounded around me. My hellhound born was loose and crazed out. I attacked demon after demon, taking heads, and in some cases ripping them apart. Fallen shifted out and away from me. I could see one female's eyes filled with fear. Approaching the last group of demons, the divinity chose that moment to act, sending bolts of pain ripping through my body. My body gave out and I dropped to the ground. My eyes searched around me for Chax. There he was, a few yards from me, on the ground. Not moving.
I dragged myself towards him, wings bursting up into the air with each bolt that went through me. Nearly in reach of him, I tried to call out to him. Instead, a scream ripped from my throat as the intense energy pounded through my body, leaving me crumpled on the ground. I tasted dirt. With one last look at him, the final energy bolt sent me into darkness.
“Look, they are dying,” The voice said in the dark void.
I could see nothing as it was pitch black all around.
“Can you hear their screams?” the voice taunted.
“I see and hear nothing!” I yelled back.
A giggle sounded to my right. It was the child again. Oh no! I knew what was about to happen.
“There, Kasadya, look there.” And with that, the darkness started to fade into white mist, revealing the same battle where we all would die. I found myself first in the battle. Strong and big, I sliced, ripped and to my utter shock, sent demons flying without even touching them. My eyes were weird too. They were a pink color. Not red or yellow, but pink.
'Why-” I was cut off by a scream.
I looked for the source and found Nanini running towards the hellhound line. Following her
