It's over! Lula's pupils contracted, despair filling her heart.
Just then, a figure appeared in front of her, crossed swords clashing against the oncoming Cherry. An invisible field manifested.
BANG!
Both figures were momentarily stunned.
"Carl?"
"It's me."
Carl loosened his limbs, his twin swords dancing wildly.
