Why don’t we get this done..? 1
The atmosphere shifted as the scenario looked like a clash of the beasts and Nordic gods.
Almost immediately, Alex and Ethan shifted into their Wolf forms while Roman changed into his siren form.
Sebastian attacked straight on while Guelo, Ethan's Wolf and Elias supported him from the side. They worked in perfect unison, each move aiming to kill.
At that moment, Cyclops, Cerberus and the beast of Don Illinois joined in the attack now making it seven beast against two lycanthropes and a Wolf-Siren half breed.
In a fight like this, the outcome was never certain. Hence, they needed to gain the upper hand.
Sebastian remained impassive and focused on dodging the oncoming attacks from both sides.
His focus was on Cerberus, the cold and murderous intent radiating from him was impossible to ignore.
For a beast to be ranked among the top five guardian beasts and be give the power to guide the Grimoire proved that he was far from normal.
However...
Sebastian's claws slashed wildly in the forest, making loud slitting sounds as it slit the beasts skin open.
The beasts attacks came relentlessly at them from all sides and they moved swiftly, dodging left and right to escape their attacks. But in the eyes of the Michelle, it looked like they were being played around with by the beasts.
With time, the fight got heated.
But as time went on, the beasts began to feel something was amiss especially Cerberus and cyclops. They couldn't reach the trio no matter how they attacked or surrounded them.
The trio moved around like a ghosts and they could not touch them. They would evade their fatal strikes whenever they thought they would hit them.
However..
Cerberus and cyclops could pin it on luck if it happened only once or twice. But it was different when it happened multiple times.
It was as if the two of them were not attacking but rather being led on. It felt terrible, and the two began to panic.
They knew that if that went on, they would exhaust their true energy. And when that happened, they would be entirely at the trio's mercy.
Meanwhile...
As the fight went on, Michelle saw through Alex's scheme and she fled from the garden of the cursed castle by disappearing with the tied Kimberly.
She made Kimberly lay on the same alter she had woken up from. Immediately, Michelle walked towards where the symbol Lucia and Graciela had drawn was..
"Lumos.." She said and almost instantly, all the red huge candles place at each edge of the symbol began burning. Not minding to dip her hands Inside the cleansing elixir, Michelle picked the Grimoire and began the ritual.
She was once an immortal but now she isn't because her soul was shifted from her original body to the body of a dried dead witch.
Thus, She needed to awaken her powers and right now was also the perfect time.
So, However..
Michelle didn't create another portal, she only walked to the center of the symbol where the calabash was kept. She took out a dagger from the inner cloak, slit the her wrist and mutter some spells as she let her blood dropped inside the calabash.
After that, she cut a handful of hair off her head and dropped it inside the calabash.
Meanwhile....
Kimberly who laid on the alter with her mouth, hands and legs tied, couldn't say a word but watch. However, after a while, her eyes landed on the small dagger that was left on the Alter near where she laid and she swallowed a lump.
Kimberly began inching closer to the dagger but it was impossible for her. If she made any little more move she might fall from the alter or perhaps break an arm or two.
However...
Not long after, Michelle began the ritual itself.
" Miambulus decatero De satios cum lelecum de fetes..."
She knelt in front of the symbol chanting and chanting. Suddenly her eyes glowing brightly, including...
Her now white hair..!
However...
Unknowingly to Michelle, Kimberly was repeating each words she was saying in her mind and at that moment...
Kimberly felt her body especially her heart shook In excruciating pain, it was so sudden that she winced out loudly making her almost fall from the alter. Just like Michelle's, her eyes glowed.
At that moment...
Kimberly felt her body heat up, something stirred inside her, like as if her body was fire and ice.
Her lips began trembling as beads of sweat began making their way out of her body.
Her face and body began switching from her's to her mother's, Helena.
"Let me.." A voice echoed in her mind but she ignored it.
"Let me out..!" The voice sounded again her mind but she wasn't giving in.
However...
In the next second, the pain she was feeling intensified. Because of the pain, kimberly didn't know when she let whatsoever that was asking her to let it out, out.
At that instant..., kimberly's soul switched with her mother's.
She growled in the most painful voice ever that in a twinkle of an eye, Kimberly's physical features slowly change into Helena's.
She subconsciously shape shifted into her mother.…
No, it was not just Helena's face and body..
Right now, it was Helena both body and soul.
Meanwhile...
At that same time...
Michelle's lips moved in sync with the spells glowing inside the Grimoire.
However...
She chanted and chanted when all of a sudden, black mists began appearing slowly, engulfing her entirely. And so was Kimberly whose soul has now switched to Helena's.
Five years ago when Helena's soul transmigrated into the body of her daughter, Kimberly.
It was later found that her daughter's soul was yet to leave her body and since there's no how two souls could occupy one body. Helena's soul which was the stranger agree to be dominated by her daughter's soul and her powers were all absorbed by her daughter's unsealed powers till the date when Kimberly mated with her true love.
However...
Looking at the scenerio right now, one could hardly what was going on, as Helena and Michelle's figure was suddenly lifted up in the mid air by the mists surrounding them.
At that moment...
The Grimoire that was in Michelle's hand dropped on the ground and it's glow went out immediately.
However...
Not long after, the mists that covered the both of them disappeared. By then, the ropes holding Helena loosened by itself and the eyes of both women locked.
Right now, one of them had a trace of surprise on her face while the latter had an indifferent look and that was Helena.
Michelle was surprised as she knew that the woman in front of her wasn't actually the one she has brought with her but from the look, she being an old witch could guess what happened,
With her white nightie following along with the night breeze, Helena looked like fallen goddess of Axis mundi. Whilst Michelle's black cloak blended with the nights unceasing darkness.
At that instant..., like fire and ice.
Michelle made an ancient demonic sword appear from no where. The sword looked ancient with red veins all around it.
However...
Helena wasn't left out as she also made a mystical sword appear from no where and immediately...
"Clacck..!"
The two souls crashed in a heated fight.
The fight was intense as Helena kept ducking Michelle's aggressive attacks, giving her some cuts at interval whenever she sees her attack leaving an opening without her defence.
In every fight, the one who attacks always leaves an opening but the only problem was that not all who attacks could defend themselves at the same time. And here, Michelle was one of them.
However.…
Seeing that she was almost being defeated even before the fight began, Michelle activated the power of the ancient demonic sword and struck it towards Helena yet be activated sword. At that instant, Helena did block the attack but she fell with a hard thud.
What can unactivated mystical sword do to an activated ancient demonic sword?
Nothing... Absolutely nothing...
Even Helena was lucky enough that her sword didn't break at that strike.
However....
The very moment Michelle saw Helena fell, a satisfied smirk spread on her face and she muttered...
"Why don't we get this done..?"
