"NO! YOU CAN'T BE HERE!" Skulduggery yelled.
"Yes i can Skulduggery dear friend. The portal that Miss Cain stepped through and bought the sceptre of ancients from, well I've been focussing on it and last night when I heard Miss Irate's scream of terror I had the strength to break through," Mevolent said.
"And what do you want here?" Valkyrie asked while glaring.
"Ah I remember you. You survived having your head cut off by the god killer an amazing feat to say the least. I want to expand my dimension to here and to put mortals in their proper place and maybe bring back the faceless ones. Harmless acts, well if you're a sorcerer than you have nothing to worry about except my government."
"I won't let you," Shadow said.
"Oh says the person who made me able to come here."
"You and who's army?" asked Ghastly.
"My own," Mevolent replied.
"Well come and have a go if you think you're hard enough," Tanith said poised to fight with her sword.
Tanith lunged but Mevolent sent her sprawling with a wave of his hand. Ghastly got in with a good punch and Mevolent just hit him back harder. Valkyrie hit him with a fist of shadows and he drenched her while sending her back with a wave of water.
"That was a new dress," China said and released a stream of blue energy by tapping matching symbols on her arms. The wave hit him and he staggered and sent streams of fire back at her. Erskine and Vex ran at the same time and Mevolent sent earth from the rubble at them like bullets, Skulduggery got hit by some and went down screaming as one cut through a rib. Shadow screamed and ran. She kicked and sent shadows at him. She cut his cheek and he cut her arm she looked down at it as glowing light burst through and it healed itself. She was then wrapped in a glowing stream of yellow light that encased her whole body as it swirled and she pointed and sent it at him. Mevolent went down and Shadow rushed to Skulduggery and unbuttoned his shirt and put her hands on his rib and the same glowing light fixed it.
She was rushing to Dexter Vex the next nearest person when the air caught her and her magic went out. Skulduggery watched as she was slammed down repeatedly at first she was brave then she was screaming but after another couple of helpless minutes she was limp and silent.
"I have dreamed many ways to make you miserable when I came to this dimension and I thought if I destroyed the only family you have left then end your pitiful existence then I can move onto mortals."
"NO PLEASE SHE'S ALL I HAVE LEFT!" Skulduggery yelled.
"Don't worries I'll make her last my torture techniques vary and she's such a lovely specimen I promise to do my worse."
"No!" Skulduggery panted.
Mevolent left with Shadow in a rush of air leaving Skulduggery mentally broken on the floor.
