Eve: Its a shame this is almost over.

Chapter 3
"Here's a crazy idea let's wait until morning!" Chung hissed.
"Baka…" Elsword began to mumble.
"We cannot afford to let this one get away, therefore we go now." Raven said.
For the team the walk is pathetic in fact they could run their. However its really early in the morning and neither of them wish to be doing anything except sleeping. Rena attempted to cheer everyone up by singing an old marching song. It distracted the altos while the supprano continued to beam her original grin. Altera is a city in the sky dwelling in the heart of the clouds. The only way to reach it is by an airship which the black crows have. Raven who is former leader of the black crows walked right on it and invited his team to join him.
Everyone examined the area as they reached Altera. The ground was broken up in certain areas. Statute of the leading pongo of Altera was cut in half. Buildings were burned to a crisp as well as trees. Pongoos ran to and fro from more burning and destruction. The heroes looked at each other and then marched off towards the danger. It was no surprise by the speed of the attacks since Eve can 'fly' or glide better than anyone they knew. The attacker stopped and turned around to see her who was following.
"You there! Stop what your doing right now!" Rena snapped.
The clone just turned her head even more. Now she faced the elgang fully with her bangs elegantly falling into her face. She was emotionless just like the original yet a flicker of anger sparkled in each of the Eve's eyes. It was faint and barely noticable but it was there. The clone shot her arm straight out and shot a laser at a tree. The tree caught fire and burned as the doppleganger lowered her arm. Everyone then got into a fighting stance. Elsword was the first to attack.
Elsword ran up and did his combo exploding rune at the fake. The other Eve was hit and fell to the ground on her back. Light energy waves appeared near the Rune Slayer feat making him rock back and forth as gravity seemed to lessen and deepen. As the clone backflipped up she hit Elsword's chin with both of her heels. The fake shot a laser at Rena but missed. Rena put her bow away and swapped to her blade, Eredil. Second Eve shot a laser again but Rena switched to sliding and kicked her in the air.
As Rena was about to shove her Eredil right into her abdomen Rena was launched into the air. Rena remained in the air squirming and struggling as the Code battle seraph landed. Then she did sky zapper towards the real Eve who was in the back of the group. Original jumped back as the copy flew past her. Eve turned her back to the team and then shook her hand as if to shew them away. Then both of the drones began to stir looking at their copies.
Doppleganger did aerial laser as the gravity rocked under Eve's feet. Moby blocked the laser while the other drone got his mistress away from the shift. As the fake landed Eve gritted her teeth before shouting out "Energy needles!" The other's eyes widen as she quickly jumped to the side only getting scrapped by a few. She wipped her eyes towards Eve's emotional face.
"Screw driver!"
"Cannon strike!"
"Luna blade!"
"Bleeding slicer!"
Aisha, Chung. Elsword, and Raven all screamed out at both Eves. The real one jumped to the left while the fake went to the right. Eve slapped Elsword while yelling at him for attacking her. The confused comrades figured that was her then turned to the other who was running away. They went jumping and knocking over things just to catch up. Yet they were far behind her as she reached the docks. A Chung clone sat in a boat waiting for her. Eve clone pulled out a spiky wind fragment which was rare at this point and time.
"Well I guess no reason to worry about you failing, Anti." Chung teased.
"I will never fail Slash you on the other hand Meteor I worry over." Anti replied getting in his face with stern eyes.
They hopped in the boat and rode away as the elgang arrived. Everyone sucked their teeth as they watch the boat drive away into the unknown. Raven took a look at the license plate on the boat. Then he put his hand on his chin.
"That plate belongs to Hamel capital…" Raven mumbled to himself.
"What's up bro?" Elsword asked tilting his head.
"To the airship!" Raven commanded.
The heroes turned and darted back to the airship. Raven flew them into the air following the boat riffles in the water. The clones in the boat had a good lead in front of them and the boat itself is fast. Though clouds and such blocked their sight of the boat they knew they were on their tail. Rena stood next to Raven the whole time which brought comfort to the both of them. Elsword slept somewhere in the corner, Eve looked around the ship analyzing it; meanwhile Aisha and Chung played a game.
"Fucking Hamel…" Elsword began to swear.
The gang could still all hear his insults to the city even though he is whispering. Chung still had his head down pouting to himself. Aisha went and hugged him which made him smile a bit. Raven dragged Elsword as the rest lead them through the city. Hamel is for the nobles of Elrios so the elgang stuck out like a sore thumb. They looked high and low for a similar image of themselves yet they seemed to know no one around them.
Rena pointed at a figure that could be Chung. The figure quickly turned the corner with their navy blue scarf trailing around the corner. The team creeps after the figure waiting to see the person face. As they turned the corner they seen the baby blue eyes they were hoping to find. The figure looked at them then grunted after noticing they arrived faster than planned. The elgang began to cough as the air felt too hot to breath.
When they looked up the clone was gone and they looked franticly for him. They split into two groups searching high and low for the copy that seemed to have vanished. They regroup at the local hotel which was a luxury beyond expectation. As Elsword was booking the rooms a paper slammed in his face. After grunting he read the note which told of carnage at the other end of the street. Elsword smiled as he turned to his comrades who were playing on the luggage cart.
"Stop right there ugh Chung!" Chung commanded as they seen his copy.
"My name is Meteor not that it matters…" The clone mumbled.
"Scatter!" Raven yelled as he noticed the ground melting under them.
The team was in an oval around their opponent. Aisha was the first to attack by throwing a chain of fireballs at him. Meteor jumped and dodges right into a magic arrow. Rena unleashed a hell storm of arrows at the cannon shooter. The doppelganger put up his shield which him from the magical attacks. The shield went down after they stopped attacking to recharge their mana. That's when Meteor let out a roar saying "Fire chase!" Fire spawn from the ground into the form of an animal and chased the elgang.
Chung put up his shield around the team and they were safe from the fire. Now it is their turn to attack and Eve was the first to make the next move. "Energy needles!" Meteor was hit but it didn't look like it hurt him one bit. Meteor screamed something but the sounds of the fire tornado forming around him blocked it out. As the copy was about to probably kill the team with his over powered attack a sword was at his neck. A female with blazing red hair and deadly red eyes growled at Meteor as she held the sword to his throat.
Meteor teleported away then the girl put her sword away. Elsword mouth was wide open as his eyes grew beyond average size as he looked at their heroine. The woman wore a Red knight uniform which looked like it was made just for her. Raven looked away as he felt embarrassed, Rena beamed her regular smile, Chung insulted himself, Aisha did the same, and Eve never moved her learning eyes from the girl.
"My name is Elesis and I am leader the Red knights. As well as Elsword's older sister." The red haired knight proclaimed.
"So what the hell is going on here?" Raven asked.
"They are demons from another realm, why they take you're appearance I don't know. I've encountered these demons during my travels, this Slash guy is so important because he is the only one that can open a portal from our world to theirs. I've studied for months on how to defeat them and the key to that's you."*points at Elsword* Elsa said and did.
"W...what how I'm I the only one who can stop this? Elsword stammered.
"We'll actually it's not just you it's your whole team "Elesis replied curtly.
"You each have to use this pendant and put each of some of your blood inside it. Confront the demons and they will be pulled into the pendant and sealed forever."Elesis went on.
Elsa: Hey everyone! Kiro finally made up her mind to let me in :D
Aisha: and to let us back :)
Chung: Well Kiro does want to be a pyro knight so it makes sense.
Spider: Come Kiro we have work to do.
Kiro: I would enjoy getting some reviews! Cinnamon and oranges~
