The air crackled with anticipation as the long gleaming sword sliced through the atmosphere, solidifying Tess's realization that Jade had entered the fray. In that battle, her team faced not only the formidable Legion and the enigmatic bandaged adversary but also Jade, a leader whose strength surpassed that of any Elite member. Dread washed over Tess, for she knew that this time, the outcome would be far worse than before.

Like an enchantress, Jade's slender form draped in black captivated Tess, drawing her into a trance. With every nimble step, Jade left behind a trail of shattered rocks and a swirling dust cloud, her sword's elongated edge gracefully caressing the ground.
