Chapter 7: The Haunted House

Rena's POV:

Suddenly, I felt a dark present. "Stop!" I said to the Elgang and tried to concentrated on the source of energy. As an elf, I can felt the present of any kind of magic or aura. (um..not sure if its true but I'll just go along with it XP) Everyone looked at me, waiting. I felt the dark present getting stronger. This presence..felt so familiar...I thought. Eve was readying her drones and was looking around, it must mean she felt it too. "Can you guys feel it?" I asked them. They concentrated and Aisha's face turned from scared to serious, "it's getting stronger.." she said. Raven nodded. Then we got out our weapons and put on our full guard. "Don't used any spells that could caused for this house to go down." I warned. Suddenly a door broke down and there were monsters coming out of the room. We started attacking them and soon they were all dead. I examined them and frowned, "what's going on..thee are monsters from Bethegara Falls and Pilgrim's Gateway..." suddenly a couple more doors broke down and monsters started pouring from it and surrounding us. "Phoenix Ta-" knowing what skill he gonna used, I quickly put my hand over his mouth and hissed, "you gonna brought down the whole house!" I took my hand back and heard him mumbled, "sorry.."

This is bad, they are closing on us. "Attack with your close range skills, now go!" I said to the Elgang.

Raven's POV:

I looked at Rena, suprised at how her mood swing changed so fast. She could be so scary when in combat...or when someone made her angry, either way...

Narrator's POV:

"Thousand Stars!" Eve said and a hundreds of shockballs flied and attacked the big and strong enemy. She used illusion strike when necessary. Then there were many monsters coming her way and she was surrounded, Chung noticed this and about to ran there and helped Eve. But she said, "Photon Flare!" and killed them all. So he stayed in his spot and killed monsters, he used Head Shots to tried to killed far away monsters. Raven auto attack the monsters and used Berseker Blade and Hypersonic Stab when necessary. Nearby, Rena used Rising Falcon when the enemies got too close, Cresecend Kicks when dealing with stronger monsters, and Rail Stinger to killed a row of monsters. "Chain fireballs!" Aisha said. Then she auto attack until more enemies surrounded her and she used Chain Burst.

Chung's POV:

This isn't good, the monsters are increasing. Even as the strongest team, we can't fight all of this. "Fall back!" I yelled to the other. They nodded and started moving in one direction and killed all of the monsters in their way. "Rena! Tried to located where the source are coming from." She close her eyes while we held off the monsters. "I can't sensed it really well, Idk, but it's coming from somewhere upstairs." We got to the stairs and headed higher to the top. "The attic!" Eve said. "But there isn't any opening for us," Elsword said. Then suddenly Aisha said, "Magic Missile!" A blue orb formed out from her wand, she closed her eyes and concentrated, the orb went up to the attic, but then she frown and opened her eyes, "the orb..it got to the main source, but it can't...hit it.." she said confusingly. We all frowned and Raven said, "guess we gotta go find out." The monsters are started to closed in on us. "Elsword! Use Phoenix Talon!" I said. "What? But it gonna brought down the whole..." her voice stopped as she thought for a moment. "That's it, use it Elsword!" He waited for until the monsters came closed in on them and yelled, "PHOENIX TALON!" The other members of the Elgang ducked and covered their head with their arms. He created a giant fire Phoenix that burned the monsters near by, it flied up, destroying the roof and suddenly, all of the monsters disappeared. We stood up and glanced around, this place was a mess! Oh well, they'll clean up later. The dark presence seem to had disappeared. We decided to went around the haunted house to see if there were anything unusual. Aisha had became scared again and was hugging Elword's arm. What happened to her bravery just a sec ago? I thought. She scared of ghosts but not creepy monsters? Raven said to went around and check for every rooms, but there are like 1000 rooms here.

Elsword's POV:

We came to a hall way and saw our teachers. They were talking to each other and they looked worn out due to battling with the monsters. They stopped talking when they saw us. They came over and Ms. Ariel said, "are you guys ok?" "Suddenly there were a bunch of monsters appeared from nowhere, then somehow we can't controlled the house anymore, hopefully the students in here are all okay." Ms. Camilla said frowning. "You should go looked around for them." She said to the other teachers and they nodded. Ms. Camilla studied us for a moment and said, "you guys know something about this isn't it?" Damn she's sharp. We looked at each other and then Aisha spoke up, "we're not sure but what we know for sure is that someone are testing us. There was a dark presence in the attic, base on my knowledge and what happened to my blue orb, it's a kind of power that can't be destroy by just any kind of spells, it can only be destroy by a specific kind of spell, Elsword's Phoenix Talon is one example. But base on what happened today, that person could've created a more stronger source of dark magic that could created more powerful monsters. But these monsters that we encountered today are just ordinary monster, our level. So that person must be testing a specific person or a specific group of students." Aisha said. Ms. Camilla frowned and was lost in her own thoughts. "I'll see about this and find out who that or those person are." Right now, just kept this as a secret between us." She said. We all nodded. "Now get some rest, you've had a hard day."
