Vex was frustrated. How dare this man call him storm's pet. He Respects Storm but Vex has his own pride. "I am a team captain as well, watch your mouth you stupid has-been clown." "Has been?" Fiend laughed spinning and dancing around. "You underestimate a Spectre and that will prove to be your most fatal mistake." He warned. "Yeah? We'll see about that." Vex took a deep breath. He raised his hands and channels his mana. "Blaze Tornado." He voice echoed across the battlefield as he summoned ten flaming twisters that roared into existence. The fiery columns spun and crackled, their intense heat warping the air. Fiend stood at the center of the chaos and gave a low whistle, seemingly impressed by Vex's display of mana."Not bad," he remarked with a smirk. "You've got a pretty good mana nature."Vex clicked his tongue in irritation. "I don't need compliments from an annoying clown," he shot back. He then directed the flaming tornadoes toward Fiend. The spinning infernos moved qu
Garrick lunged forward, his shadow daggers flashing in the absolute darkness. He couldn't see anything beyond the faint glow of his own weapons. Storm's voice echoed throughout the void, coming from every direction at once, adding to the disorientation."You think you're the only one who can play with shadows?" Storm's voice taunted. "You can't even tell which way is up, can you?"Garrick tightened his grip on the daggers, feeling the cold metal in his hands. He had been the strongest among The Magebreakers, the most feared. But now, with his mana depleted and his senses dulled by the oppressive darkness, fear started to creep into his heart."Where are you?" he shouted, spinning in circles, trying to pinpoint the source of Storm's voice."Right here," Storm replied, his voice soft but cutting through the void like a blade. Suddenly, Storm's transparent-like mana flared up, illuminating the blackness. Garrick caught a glimpse of him, then he was gone again, like a phantom in the night
"Storm, where the heck are you?" Keith muttered to himself. One moment, Storm took a new form, then his mana vanished, and finally, in an instant... "Storm and Father vanished.""Be safe..." Reed appeared beside him a moment later, shock on his face as he stared at the ongoing battle, eyes frantic as he searches for the two who should have been standing near Keith. He had seen Storm and Garrick vanish, but had considered the possibility that they moved faster than his eyes could follow. Yet, not signs of them existed.“Where are they?” he seethed at Keith.His father was ruthless. He knew that standing against Garrick might mean his death. But he had assumed it'd would be here on this battlefield if they didn't win. But if his father had taken Storm off to punish him, then he didn't want to think about what the man would do to him.“How should I know?” Keith spat, eyes brimming with rage as he stared at the battle.“What do you mean how should you know?” Reed shouted, his anxiety in
“Red Souls, let's make them see red.”Vex sprinted forward, faster then his teammates had ever seen him, and slammed this fists towards Tommasso’s face. Svalinn blocked the punch but the shock on Tommasso's face was proof of the punch's power.“Narly,” Coby whispered as he got into fighting position, waiting for Guo.“I'm not sure I ever want to spar with him,” Smith, swinging his blades with brutal calm. The world was starting to fade away as they all readied themselves for the fight about to start.But the Red Souls captain didn't notice the compliments daring towards him. Immediately he'd punched Neal’s shield, he'd swung another punch with the same brutal accuracy and force. The punches didn't relent and Vex didn't show any signs of being tired as he punched and punched.“Huff, huff,” he panted as he stared at the man standing behind the shield, watching him.“You ready for what's coming?” Vex asked, grinning widely.He sent one more punch towards Tommasso's gut and watched as all
Garrick stood still, the feeling of being thrown around wrapped around him. He stared ahead into the darkness that sprawled in all directions. Somewhere in the Void was Storm, and the only way out of this was for his plan to work.“I have something of value for you,” Garrick called into the silence on every side. Nothing came as a response but he didn't back down. “You've been searching for it for a while.”Storm answered in all directions, his voice warping, disorientating the Don and making it impossible to pinpoint his direction. “The only thing I've been searching for is the day when you'll stop terrorizing the world.”Sweat was glistening on Garrick's face from both fear and exhaustion. But he kept his face clear when he responded.“Both of us know I'd rather die than stop doing this. You know I enjoy it, don't you?”“Who better to kill you than the son you abandoned?” Storm called, his voice not hiding his anger.The Don chuckled, swirling as he fought to keep himself steady. “T
Guo plunged Gada at Kaze's head but the lightening user pivoted to the left, only for him to struck in the stomach by Tommasso’s black sword.Kaze fell, his knees hitting the floor as his eyes began to turn glazed.“Noooooooo!” Storm roared.***Tanya blasted five assassins away with a wave of fire. She was about to launch into another attack when she felt a hand behind her. “What the-” Tanya said before she found herself in the dark corners of the field.“Don’t change forms,” Reed said before he vanished again.Tanya was about to jump into the air. Reed might have helped them when the Don was fighting but she didn't trust him one bit.“How dare you?” Lucy roared from beside Tanya, causing the dragon to pause her attempt to return to the fight.“What are you doing here?” Tanya asked Lucy, her wings flapping as she prepared to fly.“What are you doing here?” Lucy asked, her fate set in fury. There were many scratches on her face as well as a slash on her right shoulder.“That idiot wh
Tanya took one short glance at her team's captain and knew that should Storm find a way to reach Tommasso before anyone else did, he'd turn out exactly like Garrick.Maybe worse.But Storm was standing beside Garrick and he was farther from Guo and his second than she was. Storm was fast but she was a dragon, after all.Without giving it a thought, Tanya yelled “Hold on tight!” to Zed and Tanya before zooming off, running towards where Kaze lay motionless.“What in the world?” Lucy swore as she tried to stay steady on Tanya's neck.“Are you trying to topple us off?” Tanya heard Zed shout immediately after. She felt Thunderbolt’s power beside her but it vanished immediately after. Zed had called it away.“I pray to everything that's good on Earth, we get there before Storm does,” she said into the wind.No one spoke for a moment as they neared their friend who was bleeding on the colosseum's floor. Then Zed spoke. “I've seen people rage before. But that look on Storm? He'll go as far
It seemed inevitable, the feeling of triumph or defeat. As confident as Garrick was, facing two opponents in his current state wasn’t amongst what he’d prepared for. But then again the prize before his eyes was too worth it to back down now. “ too scared to take me on alone?” he asked storm.“As much as I crave the satisfaction in driving my blade through your black heart, I cannot deny my brother, this pleasure in seeing you fall in combat” Storm replied. Keith was silent, his eyes focused on his foe, all too eager to engage him.Seeing that his tactics of deception wouldn’t work here he was left no choice but to fight and possibly kill both brothers. But how? He too had lost considerable amount of stamina fighting storm, and depleted most of his mana whilst doing so.Having no other choice he launched forward summoning a double edged spear. It was a dark mystic weapon that consumed the life force of the one who wield it. His eyes had turned pitch black and his aura was overwhelmi
