The air was tense, the crackling sparks bursting in the air currents made it more so tense. Yet that tense atmosphere was favorable both by Eiser, Drew and Rikey.
Drew geared up as now Riley had joined in aswell. Riley covered his arms in white tornadoes as he charged towards Drew with them and launched them towards him. He deflected all so Riley then stretched his peft back and created a giant tornado in it.
"Anemos Strovilos"
He yelled as he threw that cyclonic tornado towards him.
Drew's eyes sharpened in shock yet he gripped his sword firmly, electrocuted it and striked it towards the raging cyclone. An electric wave cut the cyclone into two as Drew quickly charged from between with his electrocuted sword towards Riley. He quickly threw an Air blade towards Drew, that he deflected with his sword and then Riley, creating a sword of wind thrusted it at an aerial Drew. He was caught unattended yet he still blocked it by creating an electric boade in his left hand. Even still Drew was sent back on the ground.
Drew grunted his teeth, his expressions changed to those of disgust yet that exact second, from behind, a fierce Eiser, with an equally fiercely charged electric blade in his hand striked to slice Drew in half. Drew's enraged and focused pupils dilated in bewilderment and he created an electric sheild around that spot yet all in vain. As Eiser strike broke through that sheild and it struck him right at his torso. That immense strike sent Drew flying away as for the time during their encounter Drew had fallen down on the ground. Riley watched that spectacle unfold from the third person view at some distance.
"Hmm.... Is he constantly getting stronger? The lightening sparks around him have grown more intense."
He thought to himself.
"Watch out!"
Eiser shouted as Riley looked at his right towards a charging Drew, the expressions on his face were murdurous, as getting deluded by them, Riley couldn't focus on defence. Drew with a completely electrocuted blade in his hand, with its thrust pointed towards him charged straight at Riley.
Now Eiser, watched it all unfold from third person view, and as composed as he was, his right thumb flickered and the intense sparks around him created a weapon in his hand. Eiser threw that weapon towards the charging Drew.
Riley's eyes were wide open, his teeth greased against eachother as his hands tried to create a tornado and his legs reflexively jumped back.
"Shit!!"
He thought as he saw red vein popping in the eyes of Drew as he jumped forwards towards Riley. Yet as that electrocuted thrust was a breath away from slicing Riley, an electrocuted weapon hit Drew. The electrocuted surface of that weapon hit Drew hard on his chest and sent him flying away as his ribs broke and he coughed blood. Then Eiser pulled that weapon back from the chain that hung at the end of its handle. That weapon was a squared shaoe hammer that was connected through a chain with another hammer and it was created on impulse to save the life of the one he saved.
As he was saved, Riley looked at Eiser, who was seen grinning and finally ready for a fade. On the other side, an injured Drew whose sword was now broken and he got up with a drool of blood coming out his mouth and his hand supporting his ribs area that after breaking had turned purple.
Now Eiser had gotten back Drew's attention yet Eiser didnt cower down as he now equppied with suitable weapons charged at Drew and attacked at him by hitting him head on with them. He hit him, Drew went back abit yet then he rotated his arm and striked with his second hammer, Drew couldn't dodge so he blocked it with both of his hands above his head. He completely blocked but from the pressure his feet were drenched deep into the ground yet then Eiser clamied his other hammer back and hit it hard at his belly. This attack damaged and sent Drew back flying yet he landed on his two feet.
But even then they didn't give him any second to think and Riley threw bith of his stretched arms infront as he yelled.
"Anemos Strvilos Multiple"
And now multiple tornadoes were created that ripped apart the ground itself. Drew didn't have his sword now so Riley smirked, thinking he got him. Yet the expressions on Eiser's face told the contrary and Drew did come out of those tornadoes, blitzed infront of Riley and threw a highly oacked electrocuted punch at his gut, knocking him out with a single blow as he was sent flying back.
Eiser watched with a hint of terror and anger on his face as Drew cleaned his hand that was drenched by Riley's coughed out blood.
"One down. One more to go"
Drew said as his composed breath could be seen along with his bloodlusted eyes.
——————
Like a smooth current of the ocean, the first wave of a tsunami to reach the land, Ana ran with a similar flow as she reached the diocese, drenched in sweat. Huffing and wheezing.
"How much time?"
She asked.
"34 seconds to spare!"
Uzuka huffing voice replied.
"We really did made it under 7 minutes! Just how worries was she" We really did made it under 7 minutes! Just how worried was she"
Uzuka thought to himself.
Yet Ana's march was nowhere near over. So as soon as she reached the back entrance of the Diocese — the place where she and her whole swuad was taken out earlier — She immediately started to slash to the members of the Chained Dogs there who were transporting the children to their trucks.
A ruckus was cuased their as she arrived their and many trucks started to leave already.
The guilt of not being able to save the children and powerlessness that she felt, Ama was about to take it all out now. For it all reminded it of her past, the day when she was saperated from her siblings. It served as a purpose to remind her of her mission and also remind her of how much powerless she was.
Yet Ana sufficed with all that guilt and shame for now she had to save what she could. For she wanted to protect and to do that she had to put her shameful powerlessness aside and embrace the fruit of her weakened self. Perhaps Ana was not ready to do that yet. So she created an Aqueous Sword and started to slaughter her enemies, slicing them down for her purpose. The reason, that had now become an extreme desire, the temptation that guided her. She fell into that, and perhaps lost what she was. For even Uzuka and the other members of the BTG were also shocked to see that change. Ana's will had grown. That delicate want to protect had now been raised and grown into a desire, which was out of control.
In her rampage, the injured Ana faced amny members of the Chained Dogs, and she also defeated all those members alone. She sliced their guts, piecred their eyes and left them on mercy. So that brutality rewarded her, for she was finally able to stop a truck and save the children inside it.
Yet some of the teucks had still left the chase and Ana was unable to save them so she ran after those trucks. The trucks were in high speeds so she couldn't shoot her ranged attacks at their wheels. For it would cause the trucks to imbalance and it would result in casualties amoung the ver chuldren she went their to save, so she didnt attack. Yet to her surprise all the four trucks that had left suddenly stopped. Ice suddnely started to envelope the road which also emgilfed the wheels of those trucks, causing them to stop. Then Chained Dogs members from the back of the truck and the front came out and as they did their heads were immediately chopped off of their bodies. A shower of blood came out of their bodies which covered the icy road as Ana watched it all unfold baffled by the scenario.
So trying to access the situation she started to walk, but suddenly she coughed and blood came out of her mouth as her vison stsrted to get blurry as well. Perhaps the adrenaline had finally worn off and Ana's critcial condition caused her fall down then and there on the road. As she fell down, she still tried to get up and he saw two men walking from the across the road towards the trucks to free the children. As soon as Ana saw that her nerves calmed down and she fainted on spot. Uzuka and the others, who were busy carefully transporting the children, got to notice the situation of Ana and Uzuka immediately ran towards her. But as he did, he saw a man standing right next to the unconscious body of Ana — It was The Commander of all Executioners, Einer Alexiaris — The sheer pressure of that man made Uzuka retreat from there.
Einer and his right hand man Wislon stopped those trucks and were now escorting the children out of the trucks.
Several Large Police Wagons also appeared there as to escort those children as per Einer's orders. The Police men guided by Wilson and Einer started to escort those children out of the trucks and into the wagons. As they both carried out their duties, they constantly searched for Captain Signet, who had come here before to fight Captain Stincer.
Wilson went very far ahead into that road where even Wilson's ice couldn't reach. He had minimal light which only illuminated his nearby surroundings in that thick fog. Since his vision was minimal, Wilson couldn't see that far ahead, yet as he walked he finally noticed a silhouette of someone with a broken leg lingering and staggering towards Wilson. He got scared at first but then he recognized it and it was none other than Captain Signet who had finally woken up after his embarrassing defeat against Stincer.
Wilson reunited with Signet whi was looking depressed abit. As Wilson inquired he started,
"Sire, I humbly apologise, my dearest ones, yet i must state that i failed to capture Stincer and let him escape. I am very sorry Sire!"
He said as he started to cry.
Wilson calmed him down, put Signet's arm over his shoulder and started to to carry him. Soon enough they reached back to the Diocese where Einer had finished all the members of Chained Dogs and had escorted all the children to the Police wagons. As Einer saw Signet, he immediately realised that Stincer was a bigger threat than what he had imagined. So he also consoled Signet and right after ordered him to take care of all these children.
"Captain, I don't care about Stincer, but now you have to take care of these children. If they have to be treated take them to the hospital right away! Contact their housholds and send them back and even if you dont know the children's parents, You must now take responsibility for all of them! It is your duty and if you would fail, or lack in any sort, you will be dismissed immediately!"
Signet smirked at his order and saluted him
"Now that's the kind of order i had been waiting for! Rest asured Commander, I signet, pledge a faithful oath, that i shall take care of these younguns better than i do for myself!"
He said as he froze his broken leg, as if completely ignoring its pain and set out to carry out his assigned mission.
*********
Tips:
Three trucks filled with children couldn't be stopped and were taken to the are of authorized personnel. One of those three trucks were driven by Stincer.
