"Forgive me Grace," I said as I gripped my staff. A drop of tear rolled down my eye. My friend Grace or what used to be her charged at me. I ran toward her fearstruck. It was my first time fighting a Graphin anyways.
I clutched onto my staff. "Sharpen and extend"
My staff sharpened at the point facing upwards and extended piercing through Grace's hand pinning her in a place. She let out a loud shriek. The deafening sound pierced my eardrums.
She wailed as Claire and One ran towards us. They both wore one hand of a pair of a white leather glove.
I held Grace in a place as Claire drew near.
"Move back," Clare yelled as she threw a punch. I ducked under her fist while retracting my staff. The force was unimaginable. The monstrous hand which was now sharpened at the tip to resemble a blade erupted into a fountain of blood. Grace flew backward with the impact from Claire's fist. One appeared from behind her.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. If I wanted to save anyone I would have to remember that instant rush I felt when that Thoth guy's wolf attacked me. The feeling I got when I cloned myself. The feeling of moulding myself, another version of me. Then it clicked.
I slashed my arm and felt the blood trickle down. I swung my arm instinctively, My blood boiled in contact with the air forming the clone as it evaporated. The creation of the clone was so fast I would have bet I only blinked twice
"Five" I named my clone as One puched Grace's right arm shattering it into a million pieces. She flew towards me next.
Five and I nodded as if thinking the same thing. The tingly feeling in my head increased and now I felt like Five and I now shared a link. We ran in opposite directions.
"Revert and extend." I said and the staff became blunt and extended so Five could catch it. He held it as Grace flew into it and bounced back.
"Does this thing have rocket boosters?" I yelled to Cole.
"Yes" He screamed back.
"Perfect."
One gave Grace an uppercut and she flew into the air.
"It's time," Five said beside me. We both grabbed the staff and ran forward. "Sharpen"
"Rocket"I said and the rear end of the staff modified into an engine. The timing had to be perfect.
"Deploy," I said as the engine started and the staff began to accelerate faster than us.
"Extend," Five said as we both threw the staff as a javelin. It hit Grace square in the chest and she flew into the ceiling letting the rest of it come down on us.
