As Axis slowly closed his palms, his eyes went back to the way it used to be. His breathing went unstable, panting loudly trying to catch his breath while he slowly shook his head. The information that he got made him a little confused. Axis' feet moved on it's own as he quickly ran to the throne room where Emperor Adler was impatiently waiting for a report from the knights fighting beside his daughter.
The knights quickly opened the large doors as soon as they saw the Future High Priest running their way. "Your Majesty!" He blurts out, echoing inside the empty throne room where there were only the two of them inside. "I-I saw their plans for t-the attack."
The man continued to explain their plans but quickly the Emperor stood up and greeted his teeth together. "Call the other white magicians, send more back ups. Do not let them touch Ashleah or else-"
--------------------------
"Axis!" Cason called out for he saw Axis teleporting from the Imperial Palace to the Plaza. "Help me create a shield for them! The Princess' shield is going weak!" Axis quickly ran to Cason, more White Magicians quickly fought with the small Black Magicians.
"LET GO OF MY MASTER!!" Prescott's voice echoed in terror, as Axis looked up while helping Cason he felt the shivers down his spine. He saw Ashleah inside a black glass that served like her cage, holding her neck tightly using her left hand while coughing, her right hand continuously punches the black glass she was in- The Princess was like getting choked.
"Cason, get them away from here this instant." Axis whispers making Cason look at him with his eyebrows furrowed, eyes were weary, yet he still nodded his head and quickly did what Axis told him. This was no time to say no, Cason knows that Axis understands this situation more than him.
"You will regret this." Prescott transforms himself to a bird from a human being, his eyes went flashing white, his aura changed in seconds as flames blue as the sky covered him making the black magician who was currently holding the Princess as hostage laugh.
"I can disappear anytime and take your precious Master away from you." His voice was cold, it held so much terror that those kids that were currently getting taken care of scream and cry their lungs out.
Without any warnings Prescott quickly attacks the unknown man which he swiftly and professionally dodges the attack from Prescott. "I will always try and find my Master." He whispers beneath his breath with greeting teeth.
Ashleah was confused as she continued to hit and punch the black glass around her. She felt helpless yet again, she did not know why but when she tries to use her powers it won't come out even though she tries her best.
"P-Prescott." she whispers even though she knew that every single time she tries to open her mouth and talk, the heavy feeling around her gets more tension as she felt how the air that she needs gets taken away from her every second.
The man looked at Ashleah for a second and gave her a warm smile, completely forgetting that there was an enemy in front of him. As the attack from the enemy gets him, he almost flew a lot of feet away from Ashleah. Prescott's nose was now bleeding.
They continued to attack each other, the final blow from Prescott who was now feeling nauseous finally made an impact to the man as a large slit located at his cheeks was made while Prescott was severely injured. There was no time to heal himself from the continuous attacks weren't stopping.
"Is that it?-" He laughed, he shook his head as he flew the same height where Ashleah's black glass was. "-Well then, thank you for making my job a lot easier." He looked at Prescott who looked so helpless. Prescott opened his palm and-
BOOGSH!! The bright light went across them, taking a huge hit. Their eyes widened, as Axis who was in front of Prescott and was panting, with his eyes flaming with anger. His whole body was covered with white bright blinding flames.
"Axis no!" Her voice was husky as she shook her head. Ashleah felt like her eyes were teary and was about to punch the black glass yet again but her eyes widened as she saw Nash who jumped from another house near her black glass, holding his sword upward and was about to break it using his sword.
But the moment his sword hits the glass, he was expecting for it to break yet what happened was there was smoke that the glass released, air that was uncontrollable sent Nash flying making Ashleah and Axis shout his name.
Cason was quick to use his magic and make something that can catch Nash calmly. Axis soon then looked at the man and released attacks, he used the large cracked rocks on the floor, sent them flying to the man. His blue eyes went from the bored one to someone who was currently having a lot of fun.
The man quickly opens his palm and this black smoke crashes the rocks to dust. "Give me your best!" He blurts out as soon as his closes his palm and raises it upwards. Behind him the trees were taken away from where they were placed as he quickly attacks Axis using it.
Axis opens both of his palms and as this bright white light covered the flying trees on their way as he quickly dodges it by putting back where the trees were, as soon as it was on the ground, he quickly flew high up and did a close up attack which the man took another damage.
The man eyes went black as he yet again faced Axis, he smiled and punches Axis who was panting, catching his breath. The exact moment his fist touches Axis' face, the future high priest losses all of his composure as he took the attack- the reason why the punch was so strong because he added some magic before punching Axis.
"D-Do not do this anymore!" Her voice felt like it was slowly fading away. The man looked at Ashleah's eyes and smiled at her before flying a lot closer to her.
"Do not worry, who should I do damage next- Ah! Those 5 mean helping the civilians?" He looked down, Ashleah's eyes widened as she saw Blake, Enver, Lovis, Akriel, and Raven helping Cason to escape with the civilians.
She felt her blood flowing in anger, which was the reaction that the man was waiting for to see. "Better have a little fun before bringing you there." He said as he opened his palm and this black flames that slowly turned into a huge circle that looked like it was some kind of black hole was made.
Akriel who saw it quickly made them go to Cason as he took his sword and waited for it to hit them, his eyes did not held any weariness nor fear. He was too bold and he believed himself, he will accept death anytime it comes just to save the people around me which- Ashleah did not want. She did promise them that they will return to their own kingdoms as heroes.
The black circle in a quick pace flew down towards the civilians. Ashleah felt like a bomb, she bursts out. Breaking the black glass around her, the aura that she was giving gave everyone shivers down their spine. Prescott looks at her Master and smiles- "Kick them out of h-here." He says before losing his consciousness.
With her eyes being white, her body was covered with different colors of flames, hair was flowing around. She gritted her teeth and opens her palm, breaking the black circle that the man created to kill the civilians and the 5 Princes.
She attacks the man, which he quickly dodges. The man opened his mouth and starts talking in a certain language that they do not understand as the other black magicians and the man himself disappeared through thin air.
Ashleah felt defeated before making a shield to all survivors and screaming. "You will pay for this, run away all you want. You will GET CAUGHT!"
