A smile spread across his face as he looked up to see the massive burning bird covered in red and orange hurtled at him like a meteor. Every demon they had met over the last week had been frozen solid, so Bane hadn't had to fight anyone, leaving him rather bored.
With a clap of his hands, a dozen spears of earth flew into the air like quills from a porcupine.
Zerynthia screeched, and dove through the spears, dodging each one by the slightest amount, but Bane knew this wasn't going to be enough, and as she closed in, the spears began to circle her, and as they did, they began to rotate in opposite directions, until they were like a tornado around the fiery bird.
"I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE!" Zerynthia screamed, and an explosion sent the tornado of earth spears flying away.
Bane laughed. "So, is there any way that we can just agree to ignore each other?"
The bird screeched. "No!"
Bane shrugged. "Whatever. Don't say I didn't warn you."
