*WHOOSH~*
Just before the fireball struck Daniel, the ground beneath him erupted, forming a thick stone wall that intercepted the attack.
*BOOM!*
"It's a trap!" she shouted as she leaped backward.
"Whirlwind!"
Helen spun in place, swinging both arms wide.
Water materialized out of thin air and merged with the raging wind, creating a swirling current that swept through the room and dispersed the icy mist within moments.
Meanwhile, the man strapped to the massive chopping board twisted his head a full one hundred and eighty degrees.
With a sharp bite, he snapped the rusty chains and freed himself.
As the dust settled, the three stood at the center of the room.
Above them, the grotesque centipede crawled across the ceiling, its long, slender body easily stretching from one side of the room to the other. Countless razor-sharp legs scraped against the stone as its jagged mandibles clicked.
The two Zeros flanked them from both sides.
*Whoosh*
*BOOM!*
