The one all witches fear

[... A cave in the middle of nowhere ...]

[... The territory of monsters located on Aragos ...]

An old granny was hanging from the ceiling of a cave, locked in chains while a group of five Witches was sitting around a bonfire, chatting.

She was wearing a torn red dress and the color of her hair was resembling the color of silver.

Her eyes were closed and the chains that were holding her hands were hurting her the entire time, consuming her magical powers for thousands of years already.

Suddenly, "In the name of God, open the door?" was heard all around the cave as a wave of reddish magical energy flew through the cave from an unknown source.

Immediately, the witches started shaking violently as they slowly looked up at the source of creepy and crazy laughter.

"Finally HAHAHAHAHAHAHA," laughed granny and with a little bit of strength that was left in her hands, she broke free from the chains that shattered all around as she fell from the ceiling but stopped a few inches above the fire which started acting strangely.

The fire started growing as its flames slowly enveloped the granny's body, forming a new dress made of pure flames while she looked like the aging process in her body stopped and she returned to her thirties.

"What the-" before anyone could say something more, the bonfire under the woman exploded and sent the five Witches flying into different angles of the cave.

"Hah, it's so good to be back, young and sexy again," she spoke forming two old-fashioned, Greek-looking swords in her hands made from pure lava.

She looked like a female version of Hades that came from the depths of Tartarus.

"Ugh, we need to capture her again before she can escape!" shouted one of them, got up and started running towards the flaming beauty.

"Stupid child I'm not going to escape, at least not yet~" she spoke with a beautiful smile and spun in the air, sending a wave of boiling lava from her swords towards the Witch, which cut horizontally through her stomach with ease.

The Witch looked down with her mouth open until she fell to the ground, dead. Then, the Witch's soul which looked like an orange orb, rose from the dead body and flew towards the flaming woman, merging with her soul, making the woman even stronger.

"The forbidden art of soul-consuming! This technique uses only barbarians and cowards!" shouted another Witch and positioned herself with her remaining three sisters, ready to strike at any moment.

"Girl, you forgot the third group."

"Which one?" replayed the angry Witch.

"Monsters~. And now, you are challenging the biggest one," she spoke as the fire inside her started bringing more heat to her hands and swords which started releasing the lava on the ground unconsciously because of the power they were constantly getting.

"Bullshit you ugly flaming bitch, we are four, you are one! You can do nothing. We are going to catch you again and even that boy can do nothing about it~"

'Who are they talking about? Maybe that voice. Yes, it must be it! They mentioned him previously... He must be pretty strong because when that girl mentioned him, the other three shuddered with fear~. Let's wait and see if she reveals more.'

"Sisters! It's time for the cage formation!" the Witch suddenly shouted which pulled the flaming woman out of her thoughts as the other three nodded.

"Hahahahahaha~" the flaming woman started laughing as the four Witches were dancing around her, forming an elemental cage with their powers.

The Witch that was controlling the Fire was dead but, Water, Air, Earth, and Nature were still present in the bodies of the four other Witches.

'It's not as strong as the full elemental cage but it should hold her until Withpoke Lady sends us another Fire Witch.' thought the Nature Witch as she shot a beam of greenish light toward the power of her sisters that was already preventing the flaming woman from leaving her spot.

As the power of the three elements clashed with the power of Nature, four silhouettes slowly appeared behind each Witch.

Blue, White, Purple, and Green were the colors of their bodies as they watched the flaming woman with murderous eyes.

Suddenly, the flaming woman stopped laughing, looked up, and disappeared into a beam of flames.

"You are not going to catch me like this! Not anymore!"

"Huh? Where is she?" spoke one of the Witches who stopped together with others and looked around.

Suddenly, "Aaaaaaaahhhh!" the one who was controlling Air shouted as a pair of flaming hands pierced their fingers from behind her into the Witch's skull.

Then, her head and her upper body were ripped in half as she fell to her knees, dead.

Her white soul left her body and started levitating above it.

The three remaining looked at the soul in disbelief until another loud cry was heard from the other side of the cave.

"Aaaaaaaahhhh!!!" the one who controlled Water now cried as her arms were pulled out from her body by the flaming woman and her head flew towards the ceiling from a casual punch that the flaming woman attacked her with.

Then, the woman disappeared again as the flames that appeared out of thin air cut the Watter Witch's upper body into three pieces and the head that was still flying towards the ceiling suddenly started being pulled back by gravity until it landed in the middle of this... mess and release a blueish white soul.

The whole art that looked like a bloody flower resembled the fatality of one samurai who controlled flames too, from a famous fighting game that is still popular in the human world.

After this, another cry was heard as the last Witch who controlled Earth looked at her sister with pain in her eyes.

"Aaaaaaaahhhh!!" the girl was already without her legs and she was hanging in flaming chains where the flaming woman was imprisoned before, but the chains were now fixed, more alive, and were slowly coming through the various inner organs of the Earth Witch.

After a few seconds of unbearable pain, the Witch died as her brownish-colored soul fell to the ground.

The Nature Witch looked around at her sisters with a horrified look as the flaming woman appeared back on her spot where the Witches wanted to catch her before, with a gorgeous bloody smile.

Seeing the souls all around her and knowing she would never win against this flaming woman, she started thinking about the soul-cannibalistic ritual that she was reading back in her home. The ritual was simple, chant this and that and the soul will come to you so you can consume it.

But that would be too easy right?

Before the Nature Witch could do something cruel like this, the three souls already started flying all around the cave until they flew through the Nature Witch and were consumed by the flaming monster behind her.

"So, now we are one-on-one, right? Pretty fair don't you think?" a sweet voice came from behind her.

"You murdered them! I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL Y-Ughhh!" The Nature Witch spun, wanting to say more but was stopped and shocked when the flaming woman stopped her.

"*COUGH!*" the woman pierced her chest with her right hand and pulled out her heart like it was nothing.

"What a healthy-looking heart~. Is it that tasty as it looks like?" spoke the woman and took a bite from the still-beating heart of a Nature Witch who was holding the hole in her chest with visible pain and wide eyes.

"Ohhh, it is~" she added with bloody lips and took another bite like it was an apple while the Nature Witch just stood there with a lifeless gaze until the flaming woman pierced her lava sword into the Witch's stomach and started pulling up slowly through her chest and neck until it came out from her head.

Then the woman spun, cut off the Witch's head, and took another bite from the Witch's heart.

"Uhhhhmm, so good~, but..." she slammed the heart against the near wall.

"...Where the fuck is the one who made me free hmm? Where is my savior?"

Closing her eyes, she focused on a connection that started building between her and Christopher until she saw him on the flat field facing Ortasax.

"... That boy, is he? Huh? Is he a Darkness host? Hahahahahaha!"

"He has some balls to fight that golden chicken alone... and he is young too, Hmmm I like it~" she spoke and licked her fingers covered in blood.

"I'll let him have some fun... for NOW. Meanwhile, I'll take some depts I still have on this rotting planet," she spoke as her eyes glowed dangerously, filled with excitement and hope.

Then, she disappeared in a flaming light.

"..."

[... Styx, The Darkness Prison ...]

In a dark cell, a beam of light appeared and a woman covered in flames came out of it.

"You," the Darkness Dragon who was around 50 meters long spoke as he turned around and faced the woman.

"Long time no see," she said and winked at the Dragon.

"Who freed you?" he asked, confused.

"Your host, probably unconsciously... But it was good that he did," She smiled widely.

"Why?" asked the Dragon, confused.

"Oh, don't look so shocked chicken. You know everything around in this universe is falling apart."

"The order that was holding this universe together in peace, is being constantly destroyed again and again by the Patriarchs of Light who are allied with Witches."

"Even the Light alone started being greedy and wants more than she can chew, don't you see."

"Hah, I can see, but I can't do anything about it you forget? I'm locked here!" replayed the Dragon wawing at the flaming woman with his big paw.

"And that's when we get to your host who is not strong enough to free you yet. He would probably die if he used even one piece of the eye, not to mention what could happen if he used all of them at the same time right..."

"On the other side, we don't have time to sit still and wait until he gets stronger. But don't worry, that's why I'm here to help him~."

The Darkness Dragon looked at her and frowned.

"Why? You are a Light Witch..."

"Not anymore..." the woman interrupted him with a dangerous gaze.

"I was betrayed by my sisters and daughters. They trapped me on your planet to die lonely and miserably. Then, the Queen of your planet took someone dear to me when he tried to rescue me so now, I want to have some fun... and revenge for what she did."

"And I feel that the only one who is capable enough to give me what I need right now is that boy..."

"And? What do you want from me?"

"First, I need your blood," she spoke and spun at excellent speed, cutting the Dragon's nose with her lava swords that formed in her hands out of thin air.

"*ROAR!*" the Dragon roared in anger as the entire cell started shaking.

She ignored him and bent down. Aiming her right hand at a small pool of dark black blood that came from the Dragon's wound, the blood started levitating while she started forming a flaming vial with her left hand.

Then, she put the blood into her vial and closed it, hiding it no one knows where.

"Why did you do that!" the Dragon was furious, holding his nose with his paws.

"Would you willingly give me your blood?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.

The dragon closed its mouth and stayed quiet, knowing he wouldn't.

"I thought so... Next I need your Dragon scale~" she spoke and jumped at the top of the Dragon's head without a single word of warning.

"WAIT, NOT THAT ONE!" 

"*ROOOOAR!*" the Dragon now roared even more in agony as the flaming woman pulled out a gorgeous, glowing, purple scale from the dragon's forehead.

"WHYYYYY! DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IS THIS SCALE GROWING?! AND HOW PAINFULL IT IS!?" the Dragon was filled with clear rage.

"No, and I don't care. I need it so shut up!" the woman ordered.

"Third... I need this~" she spoke, disappearing and reappearing again with a big beating heart.

"W-WHAAAAT! GIVE IT BACK!" the Dragon positioned himself while aiming its mouth at the flaming woman.

"I can't~ I need it. By the way, you became rusty. In the past, you would immediately feel my intentions but now, you look like a pathetic little chicken who can't even protect his own heart. What happened?"

Holding the scale and heart, she threw it into the air and before the Dragon could catch them, they disappeared in flames.

"Too slow~" she laughed.

"YOU FUCKING BITCH!" the Dragon jumped towards her but stopped when he felt a slight pressure and heat on his heart.

"If you EVER call me A BITCH again, I'm going to burn your heart into ashes~, let it regenerate~, and then burn it again~, and again~, and again~. So THINK before you say something!" she spoke furiously.

The Dragon narrowed its eyes and lay down like a pet.

"What do you want to do with all this? Everyone who would take it as theirs or use it for something would die... You too and you know it..." the Dragon spoke.

"Apparently, not everyone~" she smiled widely as a memory of a boy in black armor with a red Dragon on his chest appeared in her mind.

"Don't even think about it!" shouted the Dragon and got up from the ground.

"He is not ready yet!" he spoke and quickly jumped at the woman.

"Too late, I already made a decision... " the woman smiled widely and disappeared before the Dragon could catch her.

"Where are you?"

"Here," she spoke from a ceiling as she kicked it and flew back down, stopping a few inches above the ground.

"Hah, I don't like dealing with people like you Witch... Every time, I'm left here with a headache." the Dragon sighed.

"Not for long" the woman replied.

"So, what's the plan then? How can you help him free me."

"Let's just say I have another, little more illegal way to send you free."

"Which is?"

"A Prison Break~."

"Huh? How?"

"You will see but first, I need something from you"

"What..."

"Your eyes~!" spoke the woman as she jumped quickly at the Dragon's head and pulled his eyes out, immediately disappearing after that.

"*ROOOOOOOAAAAR!!!*"

"SELENA! I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU FOR THIS!!!" roared the Dragon angrily as his bleeding eye holes started slowly healing while the crazy laughter of the woman named Selena could be heard all around the Styx's prison.

"..."

[... The Royal Capital of Aragos, night ...]

[... One of the Royal Capital taverns ...]

In front of one big tavern, located in the middle of the Royal Capital, that's welcoming all Warriors who want to relax in this crazy Supernatural World, two Royal Guards are standing still, looking pretty annoyed from the music and waves of laughter coming from inside the tavern.

Their bodies are being protected by armor made from pure silver with a sign of Fenix on their chest while they are armed by a sword hanging on their backs and spears held by their hands.

"Hah, I would do anything to have at least ten minutes inside... Cold bear and a beautiful woman~" spoke one of them with a dreamy voice.

"Same..." replayed his friend with a frown.

Suddenly, they saw another Guard running towards them, it was their friend.

When he arrived, he looked shocked and a little scared.

"Hey Tonny, what's wrong?" spoke the first one.

"Yeah, what happened to you?" spoke the second Guard.

"Hey guys, did you hear the news? Sangruil have a new Lord!"

The two Guards looked at each other and started laughing at Tonny's news.

"You mean that boy who stoled Lord Cravensworth's throne when he arrived here? He is nothing against Lord Stefan." spoke the second Guard.

"Yeah, I thought so too Ronnie, until I saw how his son Rox who is a thousand years younger killed him like he was nothing!"

"What do you mean Tonny? How can Rox kill his father, that's bullshit!?" shouted the first Guard.

"Shhhh Alex, someone can hear us" Ronnie tuckled his friend.

"Sorry, Tonny continue please..."

"Yes, like I said, I saw our Queen talking to Lord Stefan. I think it was about Sangruil, it was hard to read from their lips. Then, they started arguing and Lord Stefan showed his middle fingers to our Queen..."

Hearing the part about middle fingers, Alex and Ronnie started laughing like idiots.

""*Pffft... Hahahahahahahahahaha""

"Lord Stefan has some balls hahaha..." Alex joked.

"Stop laughing you two idiots or we are going to die!" Tonny roared angrily at the two.

"Okay, okay... And then?" Ronnie asked.

"Yes, what happened next?" spoke Alex.

Tonny continued and told everything he saw, ending with how Rox left with Raziel's sword.

"Wow," the two were speechless.

"What now?"

"I don't know but this is even more interesting" spoke Tonny and pulled out a letter from under his armor.

"A letter with Sangruil's sign? From who? The new Lord?" asked Alex.

"Probably not, all I know is, that after I saw the murder, I immediately ran here and when I was around the corner, a man with a long katana slammed me on the ground, gave me this letter, and disappeared in the shadows."

"It looked like he knew he could trust me or he knew what I saw," Tonny spoke.

"So? What's inside?" Ronnie asked.

"Can I trust you?" Tonny replayed.

"Tonny, we are already in this mess with you. Of course, you can!" Alex answered with the wide smile of a trustworthy friend.

"All right, here it goes," spoke Tonny and showed the letter to his friends.

-

"Hi, stranger. If you are reading this, it means you met my messenger and you are in a pretty fucked up situation. You heard from him something no one should hear and now, your head became a target too. You have two options.

First, you can ignore this and live your life like nothing happened until Rox finds you and your life will end or you can join our new Lord who needs sneaky and capable warriors like you.

The choice is yours..."

-

"That's it? And what if I chose the obvious one, not die and join the new "Lord" ?"

"Use your brain you idiot," Tonny spoke and punched Ronnie's face as a drop of blood fell from Ronnie's nose on the letter.

"You piece of sh-huh?" Ronnie stopped talking as the blood on the letter started forming a sentence.

-

"Come to the tavern at three in the morning. We will meet there. And by the way, by reading this, you're now under my spell~. If you sell this information, you will die."

-

After Ronnie read the sentence, he looked at Alex and when he wanted to say what he read there, his heart started beating fast as if it wanted to explode so he stopped and punched Alex as Tonny punched him.

"Are you an-huh?" spoke Alex as his blood mixed with Ronnie's and Alex started reading too.

"This is... interesting! But how did you find this?" asked Alex.

"The man who gave this to me was a Vampire, I felt it. Plus, I was previously working as a guard in Sangruil for a few years and I saw one time how Vampires are sending secret messages. Cool right?"

"Yeah..."

"So I tried it and I found it."

Suddenly, the blood on the letter started forming back into a few drops, and then Ronnie's blood separated from Alex's as the blood fell on the ground, not leaving any stains on the letter.

"Interesting, I'm in!" Alex spoke and stood next to Tonny, slamming his friend's back.

Ronnie started thinking but after a few seconds, he stopped and spoke.

"Fuck it, I'm in too Tonny. This is too interesting to let it slip by. Are we going now?"

"Yes, It's almost three."

"But wait? Which tavern?"

"Yeah, we have at least twelve taverns here!"

"Don't worry, I know which one~" Tonny laughed as the three guards started running towards their destination.

...

At the same time, on the roof of the same tavern Ronnie, Tonny, and Alex stood in front.

"Interesting, interesting indeed~" a woman in a flaming dress spoke.

"So that boy is truly troublesome hahahahahahahaha~ I like him more and more each second!"

"Hahaha, but now, let's finally meet this bitch."

...

In the throne room of the ig Castle standing in the middle of a city covered in night, located in the middle of Aragos, a woman in a white dress was sitting comfortably on a large gold throne while her white hair was defying gravity.

"Hah, I don't like this silence..." she spoke with a frown.

"I can change it for you," a female voice spoke and the Queen started looking around with wide eyes.

"Who said that!"

"You already forgot my voice? But it was only a few thousand years..." spoke the voice as a woman made from pure flames appeared in front of the Queen.

"Selena~... Oh, Selena Moriarty, It's not a pleasure to see you again!" spoke the Queen and got up from her throne with a furious gaze.

"Correct, I don't like to see you again too but I need it so, here I am."

"Who freed you?" spoke the Queen with dangerous eyes.

"My new disciple of course..." spoke Selena with a blush as she revealed her beautiful face.

The irises of her eyes were made from pure flames as they were constantly changing their shape. Her hair was now glowing with a healthy white color and her perfectly shaped lips were showing a beautiful smile.

"You have a new disciple? Hmmm... It was a long time since an old bag of bones like you had one and how he ended again? Oh, I know~, my blades slaughtered him like a pig hahahahahahaha!" the Queen laughed like a madman but suddenly stopped and narrowed her eyes.

'Huh, no reaction? Nothing about what I did? She changed?'

But then, she realized, who this new disciple could probably be, and Selena's lack of emotions just gave her the answer she needed.

"No, wait a minute," she started thinking more as an image of a certain young man appeared in her mind.

"May I know who it is just to be sure you are not thinking what I'm thinking... " she asked.

"You already know it so why are you asking me a question when you know the answer Bitch~" Selena replayed with a wide smile.

"I just wanted to make sure that it's not that worm living in Sangruil. You can have anyone else with more power or talent, why did you choose Salvatore? And stop calling me a Bitch!"

"Let's just say that he has something that others don't... Bitch," Selena replayed with a wink.

"And what do you want from me?!" asked the Queen little confused and pretty pissed off.

"I'm going to train him and in ten days, he is going to knock on your doors, ready to beat the shit out of everyone in his way to come back home... with me by his side... Bitch."

"I... I still don't understand why. I didn't do anything to you or him..."

"Oh, stop lying you Bitch! You know the truth! You let my sister lock me in that dark hole so that she can become the Queen! Plus, you killed my old disciple with a smile on your pathetic face. You even joked about it a few minutes ago!"

"Now, it's your turn to pay for everything I went through... and my new disciple will help me~."

"So, prepare your strongest warrior, give him the power of light and in ten days, we will see who will stay standing and who is going to fall."

"I want to have some entertainment before I crash your skull. And you know how I like fights."

"All this because of your sister and old disciple who at the same time was your... Lover?!" the Queen shouted as she appeared in front of Selena.

"Yes... Bitch~" Selena replayed as she punched the Queen so hard that she send her flying back at her throne where she landed on her back with wide eyes while gold blood started coming from her mouth.

"Hahaha, that punch was good, but what I don't understand is, why should I give someone the power of light?"

Selena wanted to say something but closed her mouth when she realized what she had done.

'FUCK! I'm so excited that I revealed too much information! Well, let's just go with the flow then~.'

"Why not? I heard that your fighting and teaching methods are as bad as the pickup lines of an 18-year-old virgin... Bitch..."

When the Queen heard that, her hands and eyes started glowing with dangerous light as she got up from the throne.

"That's why I suggested that you can just land him the power of light so he can have at least a small chance of surviving the encounter with the new Lord of Sangruil about which I heard that he has some cool dark abilities I'm just about to discover~."

"An Arachne king and an Original Vampire at the same time? What a dangerous and at the same time disgusting combination. Disgusting darkness and its creatures!" spoke the Queen.

"Let's see if disgusting~."

"Light against Dark, Life versus Death, the fight of the two primordial powers that build this universe will decide your fate."

"So, see ya in ten days... Bitch Queen of Aragos~" spoke Selena, leaving the Light Queen speechless while disappearing in flames.

When Selena left, pure rage filled the Queen as the entire throne room started being filled with blinding light.

"SELENA, I WILL KILL YOU!!!!" the Queen shouted as the light from the throne room exploded, breaking all windows, making the entire Castle lit up in white light.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA oh, how I like to piss off everyone~" spoke Selena as she flew from the Royal Capital with excitement towards a certain location.

"Now, let's meet my new disciple HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
