"I need your help to fight against them." Nick urged Roma who just patted his shoulder to assure him.
In the meantime, Mike sprinted towards another tree monster fiercely hissing to all of them. Their green eyes were burning like two sparkling green diamonds even in this dark atmosphere.
Mike bolted to it and inserted a spears inside one of its eyehole. Astonishingly the green creamy something started to flow rapidly from its wound.
She asked Nick - "What is it?"
Nick whispered to her -"The blood of the tree monster."
"Why green instead of red?" She asked him bewilderedly.
"Because the tree monsters in this forbidden garden area have green fluid running in their respective veins as blood potions." He calmly explained to her.
The tree monster with whom Mike was now fighting looked extremely angry. All of its branches sprinted towards him in great force but he dodged their attacks very efficiently. He reached to its trunck and by channeling his powers to his both of hands became totally prepared to attack it. His both hands glowed like fire and within a second he threw them to the tree trunck by joining both of his hands all together.
The tree caught on fire instantly and before all of their very eyes burned down slowly.
Mike yelped in excitement - "Yes."
But suddenly some tree branch just from his behind caught his legs and threw him out to that great length that he could not be seen anymore.
Cassi yelled aloud - "Noooo" and run towards his direction.
Nick did not do anything but opened his sharp sword from his belt to be prepared for the attack of the biggest tree monster coming to their direction.
The huge tree moster with red burning eyes opened its mouth and screamed aloud to see them. It's fiercely red eyes were burning holes into their skin. It screeched aloud and twisted its branches in extreme rage. It's trunck was swinging and trembling in both sides in the strange manners.
It hissed aloud and swinged its two branches towards Nick and Roma. Nick swinged the sword over their heads to protect them and with fierce force struck it towards those two branches. They caught hold of Roma's hair and pulled it towards the monster.
"Aahhh.. Save me.. Nick." She screamed aloud.
Nick cut these two branches effortlessly with just one swift and sharp motion turning of its blade to their directions. They fell down on the ground with loud noise infront of that tree monster.
It hissed aloud as if it was in extreme pain. Green liquid flew down from the wound. It swinged another branches to their directions and Nick cut all of them effortlessly. Then it run towards them empty handed (as all of its branches were all cut off). Nick prepared for the fatal blow by channeling his inner strength to the monster and he kicked him hard it just by lifting his left leg to it. The tree monster fell down at least 50 meter far by flying on the thin air for sometimes.
It hissed in extreme pain while hitting the floor with force. The tree monster took some time to get up in the meanwhile Nick cleverly made his next fatal move. He clenched his fist too tightly of the open hand and with his left hand he with great force threw his sword aiming at its chest by swinging it madly over his head for several times. He did that so perfectly that it had hit the jackpot. The sword got inserted directly through its heart and within a second green liquids (green bloods) emerged from its chest.
The tree monster screamed aloud in extreme agony before falling completely dead on its own track.
"Yes, we deed it." Mike cheerfully screamed aloud. He was not very much hurt.
Casandra hugged him too tightly while Roma patted Nick's shoulder encouragingly. He got flustered in a moment and uttered in choked emotional voice yet in a mode of whisper - "Thank you."

After Effect Of The Battle
All of them were very tired from this fierce battle. Mike was hurt too. Cassandra was now nursing his wounds on back. Thankfully his ribs were not broken by that powerful throw. Only minor scratches and bruises were to be seen here and there. Cassi were unharmed. Nick's hands were swollen but it's wounds were not very deep. Roma was also unharmed among them just like Cassi.
She was now putting bandages over Nick's wounded hands patiently. Nick was looking at her lovingly. He was desperately in love with her. Whenever he looked at her his breaths caught away. Roma blushed hard. Now she knew it quite well that this man would never leave her at any cost.
"Come, my love, let us sleep together tonight. Tomorrow will be more difficult for us." Nick dragged her in his tight embrace and they both happily slept together without any further disturbance.

What's That??!!!
They started at next early morning in carriage towards the forbidden garden. Within the two days they reached an oasis like area. That oasis was surrounded by the fruit and flower trees, thankfully none of them were monsters. The garden was all red, white, blue and white with glowing unknown kind of flowers. Their smells were intoxicating.
"What kind of flowers are them?" Roma asked Nick.
"They are poisonous flowers with intoxicating smell. But if you inhell them too much they will numb your limbs, slowly carbon-di-oxide will fill in your lungs and kill you slowly but steadily. The fruits are also of beautiful taste. No living creature can survive by eating those fruits." He explained beautifully.
She looked at those beautiful colorful flowers in big eyes. How could those pretty flowers be so much poisonous in nature?!!
Suddenly something stirred from the garden and several birds were flying high by hearing that sound.
All of them looked at that direction cautiously.
A big tail like thing came infront of their eyes. It swiped some grass from the ground.
"What is it?" Roma asked in shock.
"If I am not wrong then it is Basilyx, the guard of this forbidden garden." Nick looked at it's direction very sternly.
"What is Basilyx??!!!" She asked again.
"A poisonous snake." This time her best friend, Michael answered her.
