My body tenses up, I'm caught between fear of the monster in front of me, and anger towards him for all the things that he did. James is in a fighting stance and looking around at all the desians, Botta looks like he's waiting for something, and George is doing something weird with his hand with his lips quivering.
"For your impudence; I shall kill you and take the whore, and teach her some manners." Said Kvar red eyes filled with both lust and anger. I grip the spear tighter, anger rising above the fear; I gather mana and focus it on the spearhead. It is engulfed in flames and I lash out at the nearest Desian who was blocking Kvar.
"Flame strike!" I scream while swinging at the Desian, my actions cause all the other desians to attack us. I pull my spear out of the Desian's side and spin it to stop another Desian closing in on me; he jumps back and raises his hand to whip me. I begin to raise the spear when George suddenly cries out:
"Stalagmite!" A giant stone pillar hits Kvar along with several Desians, including the one that was coming at me, and clearing a path for us. I look around for more Desians to fight but the only ones left are stunned, I raise the spear to attack my tormentors, when a pair of arms grabs me and drags me away from the Desians before I can inflict more damage. I start to fight when another pair of arms grabs hold of me. Why won't they let me finish the bastards that have tormented me for three years?
"Katherine! You need to stop! Katherine!" said somebody, but all I hear is my heart pounding in my ears. I start screaming curses and struggle to break free but the grips are to strong. Next thing I know I'm pinned to a wall and hit my head so hard that my eyes tear blurring my vision. Botta grabs my head and forces me to look at him.
"Stop struggling Katherine! Going after them won't get you out of here! I know that you're angry at them, for everything that's happened to you for the past three years, but it won't get you out of here. We need to concentrate on escaping not fighting." Said Botta, I try to jerk my head free of his grip but its relentless. I just glare at him, nostrils flaring, and jaw clenching and unclenching. After a minute or so his grip loosens a little bit. I take a couple of deep breathes through my nose, then growl out:
"You couldn't let me get one f**cking stab in could you."
"If you started you wouldn't have stopped and you would die, which would make all our efforts meaningless. Now are you calmed enough to keep going or should we knock you unconscious?" I take a few more deep breathes and scowl while nodding yes. I'm unpinned from the wall, I turn to glare at James and George, then turn towards our goal, the control room. We didn't get that far when Kvar and two Desians were coming at us hot on our tails, as we entered the control room there was a group of people. There was two half-elves, who were siblings if their hair was anything to go by, a brown – haired boy with reddish brown eyes and a red coat, a blonde haired girl with a white outfit with a Cruxis Crystal, a black haired woman with purple robe with a gigantic pink bow around it, and a auburn haired man with red eyes and a purple outfit. The man in the purple outfit is in a seriously ticked off mood though you couldn't tell by his face.
"Lord Botta now's our chance, we can complete two missions in one foul swoop!" said James, while adjusting his feet into a neutral fighting stance. Botta is staring at the auburn man as if he's debating on something with him. I can hear Kvar and his men getting closer, whatever it is that's going on I hope it ends soon.
"I don't know exactly what's going on but if you don't make a decision soon Lord Botta we'll have to deal with Kvar, and trust me I'm talking from experience you don't want to be in his clutches." I say to Botta trying to urge him to move.
"What do you mean from experience? You're a Desian!" said the brown haired boy. I grip the spear, raise it while, gathering mana to send an attack towards him, when Botta steps in the way.
"Don't, we can't do anything now, Kratos is with them. We need to retreat." Said Botta, while giving me a stern look. I lower the spear and shoot a glare at the brown-haired idiot.
"Tch, I'll give you one warning, if you value your life and sanity you'll run. Kvar is a complete and utter psychopathic sadist." I say before leaving with the others towards freedom. We run through some hallways, until we reach a stairway, and run up the stairs which lead to the forest outside.
"So where are we going now, back to the base?" I ask as we run through the forest towards the rheairds.
"To get key crests for all the exspheres we stole and to get you one as well." Answered James. We finally made it to the rheairds. When all of a sudden my exsphere starts to throb and my upper chest explodes with pain. I crumple to my knees with pain, someone catches me and I hear a voice saying something but I can't understand them. My entire body feels like its tearing itself apart. My chest feels on fire and its getting hard to breathe. I'd cry out but it seems as if my mouth is my own, my vision gets blurry and Botta I think is in front of me trying to say something but I can't hear anything over the ringing in my ears. I reach for Botta hoping he'll make the pain go away, I just want it to go away.
And that wraps up the escape from the Asgard ranch! Reviews are appreciated; especially constructive ones as I know that there can be improvements!
