Chapter 26
The wind raged, and our heroes stopped their attack for a moment, some of the smaller ones struggling to stay on the ground. Muerto noticed this and used his power to fuel the wind so that it wouldn't dissipate. The demon began to slowly walk towards them, thinking that he would eliminate them one by one.
Saga looked around, and though his vision was obscured by the dust and dirt that was whirling around, he could see the big demon moving towards his friends. Not only that, but Ivy couldn't sing with hurricane-force winds going. Walking cautiously, Saga went over to a small, weak demon. It was huddled on the ground and trying to keep from being swept away. Saga grabbed it and lifted it up. Then, strangely, he allowed it to possess him. No, that wasn't it. He engulfed the demon. Saga lifted his arm and focused, and it was cloaked in dark energy. A familiar chill went through him. Saga lifted both arms and sent energy around in all directions. The wind began to die down, and Maria caught on and used her telekinesis to pull up walls of stone from the ground, for windbreakers. Before Muerto could try to bring the wind back up, Ivy sang a super high note.
It started as a normal high note, one that could be sung by almost anyone, but it steadily grew higher. It became high enough to cause glass to shatter, and Muerto began to yell in pain. Soon, Ivy's voice became like the siren song told of in ancient myths. Our heroes were holding their ears, the sound being beyond the threshold of pain. Muerto was on his knees, screaming in pain and rage, that he would be defeated like this. Blood was gushing from his ears.
Eventually, Ivy's voice gave out. But the damage was done. Muerto had been reduced to little more than his minions. Unable to think clearly, he searched for some path of escape. He rushed towards Otto, trying to possess him, but the green monkey blocked the intrusion by will alone. He said something like "Not this time," but Muerto couldn't hear. In rage, he attacked the monkey, and though he left a gash that turned black immediately, Otto remained standing and sliced through him. Muerto staggered backwards; he began to receive attacks from all sides. Otto continued slashing at him, Sprx blasted at him, Maria used her telekinesis, Vrust sent various sharp things at him, and Frus and Ivy shot at him. Muerto began to fade away, and it was clear that he was close to death. Suddenly most of the attacks stopped. Maria looked at the others quizzically, then realized that they wanted to let her get the final hit. With a huge burst of telekinetic energy, she finished it. However, things weren't as good as they seemed.
"Uh, guys? I think those guys are angry at us for killing their leader," stated Ivy. The others
looked around and saw countless glowing eyes staring at them.
