Apollo POV
[Damm what does it take for her to stay down?!!!!!] I think as my possessed looking sister jumps from the floor and runs towards me. Her armor has cracks and some parts missing. Her hair once beautiful now a messy mess.
While I was thinking that. I doged her storm of attacks. One of them hits me and has me take some steps back. The attack has open yet another wound. Blood drips out however she doesn't give me time to catch my breath and is right in front of me a moment later. Aiming to scratch my face. I caught it but she wings her arm punching me in the face. Grunting. I return it. We are going back and forth in attacks. I kick her legs making her fall. She puts her hands on the floor and spins throwing her two feet at me. The kicks packs a punch. it send me rolling.
Clank!! The kick made me drop my sword. Not that it was useful in this fight.
"The hell!!! Am I fighting a girl or a gorilla?" I said after I stop rolling. Fortunately I roll where the practice wooden swords are. Quickly picking one and jumping back in battle position looking at my sister who is running towards me.
"KILL YOU!! I WANT TO KILL!!!" She screams in a bloodthirsty hysterical voice with her arms up. It would have been funny if she wasn't intencely redianating bloodlust. In her eyes a demonic look was reflected. Well from her one uninjured eye the other I punched it. It's now a big swollen purple eye. Her whole body filled with swollen bruises. She cuts a sorry figure. But I swear I was going easy on her!!!!!
Seeing her attack, I smile bitterly. [Was i such a bad brother that my little sister wishes to kill me? I know I am not the perfect big brother but at least I am a decent brother. ] I caught her craw-like hands then kick her stomach, knee attack her face, headbutt her and finally throw her over my shoulder. Sending her into the edge of the arena. Like I said I am going easy on her.
Slamm!! she crash into the floor and surprising doesn't get up right away.
I let out a sight. It's the best I can do to not howl in pain. [ Owww, the pain is killing me. My body has yet to recover from the ambush and now I am in constant fights. Even worse now in a fight against my cat-gorilla like little sister that has gone for three hours. ] I can't finish complaining in my mind as my now finally looking to tired sister starts to get up and coming back for more. After hours of fighting and my long day I start to fear she might actually take my life. Not wasting anymore time thinking. I took off running towards her, drop kicking her off the arena floor.
"Ahh-" She shuts up after hitting the ground and rolling until she hits the mansion. Moments later I can hear snoring.
Getting up and instantly on battle position I look in her direction, narrowing my eyes at her form. One minute then another, after ten minutes I sigh in relief.
Thum!!
"ow" I said after collapsing of sheer exhaustion. Well it's to be expected after basically fighting all day I have no more energy left. "I never would have thought she was right....cough" Coughing I can't speak the rest of what I wanted to say. Suddenly I sense moments. Glaring in the direction of the stirring assassin. As if the gods were wishing for our deaths more shadowy assassins appear one after another. Ten in total.
[we might die tonight.] I sadding think. I don't know what to do in this situation. Even so if one of us is going to survive I will make sure it's Artemis.
"They have killed all of us, including Jerry!!!" Shouts the now conscious female assassin "His corpse is right over there. He put up a good fight against....ugh!'' One of the new assassin slice her throat.
" W....h....y?....." Were her final words. Yet looks like the assassin wants her dead on the spot. He steps closer to her twisting her head until it's separate from her body. Her body hits the floor with blood gushing out where her head used to be.
"Kill the Phoenix children and erase our tracks." A taller more muscular man says. He must be the leader as they follow his orders.
"Yes, sir." They said as they split up in groups.
[Who are they and how do they get inside the mansion without alerting anyone?? what are the guards doing?!!] Gritting my teeth in anguish. I watch as a group of three walks towards me.
"If you kill us, you will incite the wrath of the Phoenix family. You won't be able to escape a cruel death." I said through gritted teeth. Hoping to grasp all of their attention and to hide the pain in my voice.
The leader and the other groups just looks in my direction before ignoring me. The group coming towards me smiles malicious. " How will the Phoenix family will find time to hunt us? When it will be busy fighting the second prince? Or trying to make new heirs?" One of them said while smirking.
It seems they want my to family to waste it strength. But who exactly would want that? The imperial family currently need us to pressure the neighboring countries to think twive before declaring war on the Luma kingdom. Could it be the second prince himselft so he can play the victim?
[I don't have a clue as to who is behind this. But someone is obviously out to get us. Right now the main priority is to keep my sister alive. Since she knew we were being monitored she has to know something. I need to buy time hopefully Father or the goshs will arrive. ] Faking a furious face I say. "How dare a lowly assissin mention the prince? you are not worthy of mention him." Out of the corner of my eye I see the leader straighten his back more and raises higher his head proudly. I continue "Muchless to kill the children of Duke Phoenix. Only a worthless idiot's would want to spend the rest of their lives being chase by the Phoenix family. Why don't you go back to your biches? Last night they were calling me saying how they has gotten bored of your small dick and miss my big one. They told me your mothers wanted it too as you three are just a disappointment as your fathers. "
klok!!!! I can feel the pain in my face cause by his kicks. A groan escaped my lips.
"Shut up!!!" one of them screams and they start kicking me again.
[I guess that must have gotten to them. Huh] My smirk stays in my face even after the first one who hits me signals the other two drag me to the pole. He personally tied my hands with ropes.
"Yeah, I did your mothers in this putting too. Crazy bitches love it when they all are being pounded by my...." He puts a gap in my mouth. Son of a bitch.
RIPP!!! They torn my clothes covering my back. They laugh " Boy we were order to silently kill you. Your lords would have made this quick and painless but you just have to piss us off. Well the leader didn't said this has to be quickly. That would have been boring for us." Grinning he sends one towards the weapons on the ground. The other to get water from the the well. He smiles as he starts to pull small bottles from his pockets. Maybe trying to put fear in me he does this in front of me.
[This bastards want to torture me to death. Well as long I keep them occupied my sister is save.] Turning towards my unconscious sister I can see the group sent to silence her were call for help by the other group. The task of erasing their tracks must have been more difficult then they thought. They are having trouble using their energy to burn the corpse of Jerry. The assassin I killed early today. The body of the female assassin assassin my sister caught has already been burned to ash. Her ashes were spread through the woods. Doing that means her soul can no longer be reincarnated. How merciless.
Bang!!
"UMMM!!" The assassins have come back with the water and weapons. And one of them hits me with a wooden plank.
"Haha Brothers let's see who can make him squirm the most!! And whoever losses has to treat us!" The assassin that went to get the weapons said. He is also the bastard that hit me. The other nod at his suggestion.
Boom!!
Klok!!!
Crack!!
Spank!!
Wosh!!
[This bastards wants to hear me squirm?!!! Do they swing that way?!!! and Why the hell are they mostly hitting me on my butt?!!!] The sounds of clothes been torn caught my attention. It temporary makes me forget about my pain. When I found the source my blood turns ice cold.
[WHAT THE FUCK DO THEY THINK THEY ARE DOING? IF THEY DARE DO THAT TO HER. I WILL MAKE THEIRS LIVES A LIVING HELL!!!] I began to furiously try to break free. The assassins tearing my sister clothes see me in my frenzy to get to her.
They grinn bringing her over. Grinning the assassins torturing me joins them. They put her in front of me and begin to undress. "You said our woman call ours small. lets see if your sister has the same opinion." The one that tie me says as he licks his lips looking at my sister.
[Come on!!! there has to be way to save her!!! There has to be!!! and how can she still sleep through all this?!!!!] I glare at the destined to die cruelty bastards. When in the next moment the temperature shot up.
"Who the fuck dares to touch my children!!!!!" The Duke of Phoenix yells while dyeing the sky in flames.
