=========

Thick clouds littered the sky as they tried to hide the majestic beauty of the moon while fierce winds and snow whipped through the air and a gigantic mystical bear emitting black smoke from its body began to destroy the surroundings.

Andrew floated high in the air stably as he gazes upon this creature. He looks behind the bear–the backyard.

There. He looks at a beautiful young woman with flowing blonde hair who is holding a sword burning in blue light. A baby dragon sits upon her right shoulder and spits blue fire from time to time.

"Hey! Yogi!" Illyana shouted to the demon bear as she tries to gain its attention.

*SNORT*

The Demons Bear's ears twitched a bit as it heard a voice behind it. It then snorts and and turns around with its paws landing making the ground shake as it issued a loud roar to the two creature in front of it.

*ROAAAR!!*

Wind blows fiercely just from its roar as Illyana's hair ruffled from this.

"Tsk."

Illyana tsked in annoyance as she lifts her left hand and combs her hair and tries to fix her ruined bangs.

"Make that roar again and I'm gonna lose it." Illyana shouted to the bear.

*ROAAR!!*

The bear roared again in defiance, blowing Illyana's hair out of its place again.

"You–"

Illyana eyes widened in anger as she quickly fixed her hair again and looks at the bear again and made stance.

A blue after-image was left as Illyana disappeared from her place and appeared a few meters running with inhuman speed speed towards the bear with the baby dragon following behind her issuing cute sounds.

*WHOOOSH!*

Illyana quickly arrived near the bear as she then jumped high avoiding a swipe from the left claw of the bear and quickly slashes her sword in mid air towards the forehead of the bear.

*SLAAASH!!*

A blue slash was quickly left by the burning blue sword as it made contact with the skin of the bear.

The baby dragon at the air also followed this attack by breathing blue fire energy at the face of the bear and quickly backing away.

*RAAAAAR!*

The Demon Bear issued a pain howl after receiving that wound and immediately turned to the side and slashed its right claw to Illyana who just landed on the ground after slashing it.

Illyana turned her head around just to find out a big paw the size of her reaching for her in high speed.

She was ready to teleport to the Limbo to avoid this lethal attack when brown steel roof suddenly made its entrance in the air and slammed at the head of the bear with such force that it fell to the ground from the impact.

*WHINE!!*

The bear issued a pitiful noise after slamming to the ground as Illyana moves her eyes towards where that roof came from.

There. She saw Andrew floating in the air with his hands behind his back with a curious look on his face. The baby dragon quickly flapped its small wings as it approached and landed on her shoulders and spits blue energy at the air as it also looks at Andrew.

Andrew turns to looks at them and waved his hand at her and slowly floated down near her.

Andrew was about to talk to her when the bear who was just motionless for about five seconds starts to move again and stands quickly using its paws as it issued its trademark..

*ROAAAR!!*

"Is that all you know?? HUH??" Illyana shouted in frustration as her eardrums is getting annoyed by this creature.

She immediately dashed at the bear again in high speed with her baby dragon leaving behind a blue mirage.

Andrew looks at this and shooks his head at the behavior of Illyana. Just like any other girl, Illyana is difficult to deal with, but in her case she, she is two fold more difficult. She is very unpredictable as you don't know what kinds of things are running in that head of her.

"HAAAA!!" Illyana shouted as she sliced her sword to the side of the bear after avoiding its sharp claws again with her flexibility.

Andrew smiles at this and slowly lifts off the ground again, boulders upon boulders that turned into spears of earth followed him as it also lifted from the ground and floated behind him.

*WHOOOOSHH!!* *BAAAAM!!*

The spears quickly sped through the air with a wave of Andrew's hand as it all pierced and smashed at the bear continously.

*WHIMPER!*

The Bear once again fell to the ground and making debris of rocks and smoke to rise.

Andrew lands beside Illyana and Lockheed as they look at the creature.

—-—

*SZZZZ*

"Oh come on!." Illyana shouted in annoyance as she looks at the scene unfolding in front of her.

'This bear is tough for a psionic construct..' Andrew sighs as he looks at the blue burning wounds left behind by Illyana's Soul Sword and his spears healing and leaving nothing as if it wasn't there a moment ago as the bear began twitching again, Indicating it was about to wake up again and wreak havok

*FOOTSTEPS*

A sound of footsteps sounded as Andrew, Illyana and the Lockheed turns their head to the side and saw Sam running towards them.

"Haa.. Haa.. what's up guys." Sam said breathless as he approached them and then turns to look at the bear and his eyes managed to catch how the wound is healing, "Oh shit.."

"How will we defeat that thing of it can heal like that?!" He said.

"What are you doing here and where are they?" Andrew said looking at Sam.

"I want to help! And oh they are in the chapel, hiding inside." Sam said, he was about to talk more when the bear fully woke up again and starts moving again.

It stands up again and looks at its assailants and roared again, this time it didn't attack them as its nose twitched and it began turning and moving away from them, its destination? The chapel.

"Its coming for Dani, quick! distract it." Andrew said as he lifted in the air immediately and flew towards the direction of the chapel leaving behind the two.

Illyana clenched her sword tightly as she immediately dashed towards the big yet fast bear.

"Wait, what do i do?!" Sam said as he looks at the two leaving him. He looks at the big bear and the destruction it left behind, the concrete structures are toppled, trees are down and deep foot mark on the ground, looking at this, he couldn't help but swallow "What can I even do?.."

––

Andrew flew and immediately reached the doors of the chapel and began to think what he should do.

He, with his ability, clearly knows that he can definitely finish that bear if he wanted to, even with that healing bullshit, but that would ruin the whole point of why did he even chose to stay at this facility the moment he woke up. The whole point of this event is to make the protagonists overcome their fears and dark pasts, and that is what he have been doing this whole time. Helping them overcome it. And now, the only ones remaining are Berto and Dani.

He then thought about what he should do to make them overcome this by themselves, they have clearly seen his ability and how strong it was, so they will inevitably lean on him and Illyana and not do anything. So he thought about a little mischievous plan.

"HAAA!" Illyana shouted as she jumped in the air and tried to slash the bear again on its face but the bear, seemingly seeing through her redundant attack was able to react as it managed to raise its paw at the exact time she jumped and made a slapping motion towards her from the ground.

*SLAAP!*

The paw that was as big as Illyana hits her. Illyana grunts in pain from the impact as her body flew away in the air without her control.

*FRIGHTENED CUTE NOISE*

Lockheed in the air immediately flew towards her flying body, concerned.

"ILLYANA!" Sam who was in the back shouted as he saw Illyana being slapped away and immediately ran after her.

Sam tried to catch up to her but her flying body which was now falling because of gravity was far from him. Sam gritted his teeth as his body began to emit red energy and then ... "BOOM!" he disappeared from his place and tried to rush to the place where Illyana is supposed to slam down, unfortunately he is too late.

Illyana who was about to slam at the ground suddenly twisted in the air as she flexibly turned to land on the ground on her feet.

*CRACK*

"Arrrhh." Illyana screamed in pain as a sickening crunch sounded. Her feet feet was fractured from the impact.

"Illyana!!" Sam said as he arrived near her after rolling a bit on the ground after he forcefully stopped his speed. He walked two steps towards her and tried to help her stand.

"Don't mind me! Go help them!" Illyana said stubbornly.

"No! You got a fractured bone, I'll not leave you here." Sam said as helped her stand with her left hand on his shoulders.

The baby dragon lands on her shoulders and began rubbing its head at her face asking if she's hurt.

"This is nothing, Lockheed, you know that I'm strong." Illyana said to the baby dragon as she smiles and pets its head and then unsummoned her soul sword as she tries to stand with the help of Sam.

Sam, Illyana and Lockheed raised their head to turn to the bear and saw it already on the chapel tearing away its roof. Then at the side they saw a pale Andrew floating with a big boulder also floating above him with his hands raised. He shakily points his hand to the bear as the boulder immediately smashed at the bear. They were about to smile at this when they saw Andrew who was floating suddenly fall down in the air with a THUD.

"ANDREW!!"
