Evy and Dante had forced their mother backed to her room and closed the door shut and stood there guarding it.

"Guys stand away from the door!" she told them in an authorative voice but they didn't budge "Eveline and Dante you will listen to your mother and get out of the way!" she yelled, using Evy's full name to show how serious she was.

"No mom!" Evy yelled back

"Aqua told us to hide and that's what we're going to do!" Dante yelled to his mother as Lily began to bark because of everyone yelling. Claire got even Angrier as she began to take angry stomps toward them

"Get out of the way or else Aqua might…!" she said but when she was about to push her children out of the way Evy pulled back her hand then with two of her fingers struck her mom in the neck immobilizing her. She lost consciousness and control of her limbs and fell to the ground below. Dante looked at the scene in shock as he quickly knelt to his mother

"Mom mommy!" he yelled as he shook her while Lily tried barking at her to try and help her master wake up his mother

"I'm sorry…" Evy said as she knelt down to her mother and checked to see if she was breathing. Which she was, she was getting better at doing this "… but you needed to calm down"

"Evy you shouldn't have done that"

"I know…" she said as she got back up "… just like I know I probably shouldn't do this" she said opening the door

"Evy don't!" Dante jumped up as Evy stopped leaving the room

"Dante stay here with mom… I have go help Aqua"

"No don't! Terra's dad is way to mean for you, only Aqua, Terra, and Ven could beat him" he said frantically not wanting his sister to get hurt as Lily barked like she was agreeing with him. Evy knew he was right, for a toddler he was actually pretty smart and made his point clear. If she was to help him maybe she'd be able to slow him down because she'd just be another target for him, and he was pretty dim and she could outwit him. But she wasn't really fast so dodging him would be difficult, and the possibility of getting close enough to hit his pressure point was probably slim to none without getting hurt. But… maybe it was guilt she was feeling from what she did last night or the greater guilt that she has been such a brat over the course of these couple of days to her family and these nice people that she was content on going through with this.

"You're right Dante. But I'm not going to listen…" she said before she ran off in a full sprint out the room and down the hallway as Dante and Lily quickly got of the room and watched his sister run down the hall. Dante didn't know what to do, stay with his unconscious mother or… go make sure his sister doesn't get hurt. If he did either one he'd be breaking a promise, which he didn't like doing. He knew if he went after his sister he might get hurt. But he if he just stayed it was only a matter of time before that might come find him and mommy and beat them up. Either way he'd get hurt but only with one option might his mom be ok… probably.

"Come on Lily! We gotta help them" he said confidently as Lily let out a yip to say yes as they ran down the hallway after Evy.

Meanwhile

Ven and Aqua had rushed down to Elise's room and had set them both down. Elise was still out like a light but Des had come to a little bit after Ven had started running down the hallway.

"Des stay here with your mom" Ven said as Des shot up to a sitting position on the bed

"No! Take me back there with you!"

"We can't do that Des. Your father just showed us he's more than willing to hurt anyone, including you, to get your brother to come home" Aqua said as Ven nodded

"Just stay here ok we'll make sure Terra comes out a-ok" Ven said as Des shook her head

"You both don't understand there's only one way to stop him when he's like this!"

"What do you mean?" Aqua asked

"You mean he's done this before?" Ven asked as Des nodded

"Every time my mother, Terra, or even I would disagree with him he'd go on a small rampage till he gets what he wants. But over the years my mom figured out a way to make him stop so he wouldn't hurt us too bad or even at all." She said as she raised her hand out then made a fist with her index and middle fingers extended. Ven looked at her hand curiously as Aqua looked at her knowing what she meant

"You know how to use pressure points?" she asked getting a nod as a response

"After Terra left he got worse, so she taught me. She's used this for years to stop him from pushing Terra to far in his training or hurting me" She said as Aqua gasped and Ven held back a growl, he was truly a monster "If you guys can get me close enough I can knock him out and you guys can lock him away to where ever he can't hurt us" She said as Ven looked at Aqua looked back at him.

"I say we let her help" Ven said as Aqua took in few more moments to think this through. She finally came to the conclusion that there were strength in numbers, so…

"Second it, c'mon Des will distract your dad long enough for you to get your shot. But please be careful" Aqua said stressing on the being careful part as Des got up. She still felt weak from last night and she was a little scarred about trying to knock out her dad. But she had to do this, for Terra she'd do anything. That boost of courage is what got her on her feet and forced them not to wobble and run with Aqua and Ven back to Terra to take out her dad.

Back with the fight…

It was bloody. Simple as that

Neither one was holding back any bit of strength they had. Punch after punch, each one scrapping off a little bit of skin from the other drawing blood. Travis would jab Terra's side as hard as he could, making him wince and drawing the opportunity for him to punch the side of his face causing blood to spatter from his mouth and nose. Then he kept going at it, right on his face, left near his ear, right, left, right, left. Total carnage

"HA your weak! Some help your master is now!" He yelled out charging up a huge right hook. Terra quickly raised his right arm and blocked it then growled at his father before using his left hand to grab his father's arm then flipped him onto the ground, using his own weight against him.

"At least he taught me ways to beat monsters like you!" he said then quickly cocked back his right fist then slammed it into his father's back making him yell in pain. Terra then quickly went into a punching frenzy, hit him all over his back, shoulders, neck, and the back of his head. As this went on Travis' grunts of slowly escalated into a steady laugh that became a hysterical fit. On Terra's last punch he flexed his back causing his muscles to tighten and when Terra hit them it felt like he was hitting steel. He yelled in pain as he stumble back a few steps while Travis hopped back on his feet, all while laughing.

"Thanks for the back rub, it was like a little chinawoman tapping her tiny hands all over my back" he said as Terra looked at him with a scowl mixed with pain from his hand. "Give it up son" he said then charged back his fist, not even giving Terra a chance to brace himself as he felt the entirety of the blow pierce, but not literally, through his chest sending him flying to the wall. When he hit it he slowly slid to the ground and when he hit the floor he coughed up some his blood as his eyes struggled to stay opened. "I taught you everything you know about fighting and anything, no matter how big or small, your so called master has taught you is completely useless." He said as he walked over to him and pressed his foot down on his chest making Terra let out a pain filled gag, it made him laugh. "Now squeak like the little chewtoy you are" he said pressing down harder making him scream out in pain and putting a grin on his face. He let some of the weight off of him but only to put it back on him to hear him scream. Then he kept doing it again and again, till he finally took it off and pulled him up by his collar and brought him sp close to his face that he could feel his father breath on him. "Now what I have done, unbelievable to you maybe, is not permanent you won't even feel the slightest bit of a reminder of this little fight if and only if you take out that stupid key and take me home" he said sternly as Terra said something in a almost inaudible voice "Say that again" he said as he Terra looked at him straight in the eye and spat blood in his face. Travis immediately threw Terra onto the floor a few feet away. He landed on his back and struggled to even move as his father inched his way toward him "You know what I'll just keep beating it out of you" he said he began to cock back his right fist, ready to strike Terra another time before

"FREEZE!"

"Huh!?" he asked as a brisk wind came over him and froze his legs, arms, and even some of his neck were completely frozen solid in ice. "What the!?"

"Ok Des now!" Travis turned his head as much as he could to see his daughter and his sons friends at the hallway entrance with Des rushing to him

"Hey what the hell are you!?"

"Shut up dad!" she yelled at him as she jumped up to reach his neck and cocked back her fingers and pierced them in his pressure point. He cringed as his body went limp, but since it was encased in ice it didn't move at all, only his head fell to the side as he slipped into unconsciousness. Aqua and Ven quickly ran over to Terra who was barely conscious enough to know they were right next to him

"Ven gotta work fast" Aqua said as Ven nodded

"Ok on 3…1, 2, 3…" He said as he and Aqua rose their blades and yelled out "Heal!". A bright green aura quickly worked its way through Terra's body, sealing up wounds and putting bones back in place. In a matter of moments Terra had reawaken, letting out a small groan as his eyes opened.

"Oh thank god…" Aqua said as Des rushed over to them and got on her knees and looked at her brother slumped against the wall as his eyes opened

"Des…?"

"Terra!" she said as she quickly wrapped him in a hug. While Terra just looked at her then at Ven and Aqua

"What are you guys doing here I told you to hide" he said as Des broke the hug and pushed him back by his shoulders

"Terra if we didn't come back you would've been in really bad shape"

"Yeah and there's only so much magic can do for you" Ven said as gestured out his hand to take as Terra took it and let him help him up.

"If anything were to happened to you then i…" Aqua began before Terra said

"I know I know" he said then sighed "I just wanted to make sure you guys didn't get hurt was all" he said as Des grinned and patted him on the shoulder

"Always wanting to keep people safe, that's the brother I know" she said as Terra grinned at her. She did really know him

"DON'T WORRY AQUA IM HERE TO… help?" Evy said as she ran into the room ready to help, only to see that Terra's father had already been taken care of and everyone else was ok. "Oh come on!" she yelled out frustrated

"Evy?" Aqua asked

"And Dante!" Dante yelled out as he ran up to Evy's side with Lily trailing behind him

"What are you doing here I told you to stay with mom!?" Evy asked in a angry surprised tone

"Like I'd listen to you and I wanted to help so here I am"

"Well sorry to tell you this but Terra's dad has been taken care of" Aqua said as she walked over to them "But I told you guys to stay with mom and stay safe"

"Well we were worried about you getting hurt so we wanted to help" Dante said as Evy sighed then looked at Terra's now frozen dad

"But I guess we came to late, he's out cold now literally" she said as she walked over to the icicle and tapped it with her hand

"Evy! Stay away from him" Aqua told her as Evy rolled her eyes

"What he's frozen solid…" she said as a little crack formed in the ice "… this muscleheaded steroid using idiot isn't going anywhere" then Travis' eyes shot open as the ice began to crack more making everyone gasp in shock except Evy "What are you guys looking at?'

"HYAH!" Travis yelled as he flexed his muscles breaking the ice as Evy turned around and store at him with utter fear coursing through her body. He looked down and glared at her

"So who called me steroid using idiot?"
