To the reviewer DinahWas, Odin has his reasons and they will be explained shortly. For now I hope you guys enjoy the fight.
Lauren was quickly assessing the amount of fae that were there. Not all of them were thinking anything. With that in mind she figured there was about sixty who were thinking things and from the look of it there was a bunch more. The seethe came to the conclusion there was at least 75 fae there. She turned her head to talk to her friends over her shoulder, "They are going for Bo." The strong fae read it in at least thirty or more so minds. With that she pushed Bo further behind her as the group started to pull the succubus in the middle. The brunette was trying to stay by her lover but she felt Lauren using her abilities to keep her in the middle of the huddle.
The Morrigan smiled at this information, "Good, let's give them to her and go home. I just had my nails done; I wouldn't want to chip one for that unaligned succubitch."
The seethe glared at the Morrigan with anger evident in her eyes. "They want Bo to weaken me Evony. I am their main target." The blonde knew she didn't have time to fight with the leader of the dark right now. As it stood she had at least 75, if not more, fae to fight.
Kenzi quickly spotted the Jikininki. "If this was my video game and they were robots I would so kick ass. Since it's not, where did Alice go? It's her specialty we would just get in the way." The hybrid tried to joke but her nerves showed in her voice. It was terrifying to her to see what truly appeared to look like a zombie. The Jikininki had old, worn, ripped looking clothes. There was barely hair left on its head. It appeared to have pieces of flesh missing or torn and even a few pieces that were hanging loosely. She looked down when it turned towards her remembering the warning of catching its gaze.
The blonde took a step away from her friends even when they tried to grab her and pull her back. "Udano, there is no need for this. Let's talk. Tell me what it is you want from me. You know you cannot beat me even with the group you put together." The seethe knew it was a long shot but she had to take the chance. Her friends were going to have an upcoming war with Odin and they would all need to be at full strength to face him. She was thankful no one had her telepathic ability because the fear that the wanderer would appear at this moment kept playing in her mind.
Udano grinned at the seethe. He was about thirty feet away from her. All the fae were awaiting his go ahead. They knew not to attack before hand as Udano had done the most research on the powerful fae. "And here I thought seethe's didn't know fear but you do. You're afraid you cannot save yourself and your friends. You had a problem with that before didn't you?" He closed his eyes as he tilted his head back smelling the air. Licking his lips he continued, "I can smell it on you, on all of you, the fear and dread is intoxicating." The tall thin fae was glad he failed his Dawning because he was pretty sure his sense of smell was better than an ordinary vampire fae's ability. He was able to smell fear and he smelt it from this group. It pleased him greatly to know that he put fear into a seethe. Udano knew why, it was her mate; she feared them taking the succubus from her. The Under Fae made it clear to attack Bo but not to kill her. If they killed her the rage they could put the seethe in could be hazardous to all of them.
Evony leaned forward towards Lauren. "I don't think he wants to negotiate." The Morrigan knew that Udano was waiting for the right moment to attack. She watched as his fae circled around them. It was hard to keep your eye on just one. Naturally she was trying to look for the dark fae that betrayed her. Shay was standing next to her and opened up her leather jacket pulling out a black stick that wasn't that long. "Is that a drum stick because I don't think they want to form a band?" The dark haired succubus ignored her leader as she threw her hand down hard. With the motion the rod opened up and was about the size of a fighting bo. Evony looked impressed, "Do you always carry that?" Shay smiled, "Never leave home without it." The dark haired succubus held her fighting stance keeping her eyes on the fae in front of her. She glanced over at Lauren waiting to see the seethe's instructions.
Neither team moved, each one absorbing the others. Waiting to see a weakness the fight was inescapable everyone was positive of that. Now it was the dance. Like a hunter and its prey. The hunter eyes up the prey waiting for the exact moment to strike causing the maximum amount of damage with the smallest effort. Right now neither side was clear on who the hunter and who the prey was. Both sides were watching the other cautiously, each one trying to see who their main problems would be. Lauren kept glancing over her shoulder at the succubus she gave her heart to. Dyson was trying to locate all the Under Fae they just discussed. Just like Kenzi he also noticed the Jikininki as well as the Ogre. They had two with them and they were hard to miss. The seethe inched back to her friends. "Vex, they have a Mesmer," the blonde let him know with warning that he wasn't the only one there.
"Just peachy, and how exactly is that going to work. We going to just keep each other locked in place?" Vex was a little concerned having to face a fae with his powers. He always liked to think of himself as unique. The Mesmer knew he wasn't the only one of his kind but he thought he was the only one in the area. He hated being wrong especially in this particular manner.
Kenzi spotted the Chimera. She was tall and thin. Her eyes were just like a snake's. It had that slit down the middle and the eye color itself was golden. The slit going through the eye was pitch black. The Chimera had a glimmer to her skin and that's when the hybrid realized that it was the scales catching the moonlight. Her tongue snaked through her lips sensing the heat. The tiny goth made a face of disgust. The Chimera responded to the look by hissing at the half fae. When she did that a stream of fire came from the Under Fae. Kenzi quickly used her pyrokines abilities and grabbed towards the fire. As if the fire listened to the hybrid it followed her hands as she swirled it above her friends dropping it down around the group. All of them were now standing behind the ring of fire that was protecting them.
Bo watched the fire above their heads at it was brought down creating a barrier between them and the fae that were trying to kill Lauren. She nodded over towards Kenzi, "Impressive, I never got to see you use your fae powers." The succubus had no idea what Kenzi was able to do besides throw fire balls. She heard that she could manipulate fire but until now she couldn't imagine it till she saw it. At least they had some protection now. Even the dark fae leader appeared a tiny ounce of impressed. The hybrid gleamed with pride. "What that? That was nothing." The half breed replied to her friend.
"This just bought us a few minutes," the seethe let her friends know. Although Kenzi's fire was a nice trick it wasn't going to prevent or stop the inevitable battle. At most they had a few minutes to form a plan. She could see Udano's outline through the flickering of the flames. The tall Under Fae didn't move or take his eyes off of the seethe. He watched her almost in a trance like state. "From what I can tell they have a few shifters, a Mesmer and as we all know a bunch of nasty under fae." The blonde was going to use this time wisely.
"We got Evony, four succubi, two half succubi half pixies, a hybrid, a Mesmer, a siren, one half ass wolf," the Valkyrie grinned at her old partner, "eight goons of muscle, a seethe and best of all me a kick ass Valkyrie," the former dark fae faced the Ash, "What the hell are you?"
"He is a mind weaver," the seethe answered for him. She knew he wasn't going to reveal the type of fae he was. "He has the ability to create images in your mind. Carrig can make you think you are on the beaches of Hawaii when you are really in the ring of death." The blonde had no time for Carrig to be arrogant. Time was not there friend and she could see the fae behind the fire glancing at each other. She knew it wasn't going to be much longer.
"Wicked," responded the tiny hyrid. She liked her powers but that was a whole other level. Right now they all needed whole other levels because this was not going to be an easy fight.
"RUN," a twin shouted as she saw the hammer coming down through the fire. It caught everyone's attention in time to move out of the way of the sudden threat. Kenzi jumped out of the fire since it no longer affected her she wasn't bothered by the heat. Lauren cursed to herself as she jumped through it as well knowing Kenzi was vulnerable. She was right as the seethe walked through the flames herself the Ogre was standing in front of her new roommate. Using her telekinesis she quickly pulled the smaller fae to her. The seethe whirled around using the same ability to throw the Ogre into a group of fae. She knew she didn't have time as she threw Kenzi back through the fire.
Bo saw Kenzi come back into the circle but no sign of Lauren. Shay didn't waste a second. As soon as the hybrid was through and the seethe wasn't Shay used her arms to cover her face as she jumped through the flames as well. Bo went to move and Dyson held her back. She quickly spun around, "Let me go." The wolf kept his hold on her. "No, they will use you Bo. Lauren will die protecting you. If you want her to live let us protect you." The succubus knew he was right but she didn't care. The brunette wanted to be near her lover. She wasn't going to stand behind flames watching her and Shay fight side by side knowing that she should be the one next to the powerful fae.
Lauren saw Shay come through the fire, "Are you insane?" Shay flashed a smile, "This is my thing. This I know how to do and I do it well. Try and keep up sexy." The dark haired succubus whirled her fighting stick above her head as she went towards a group of fae. Bringing it down as she whirled it around she clipped the head of one fae easily cracking his skull wide open he went down quick. The other end hit a fae in the jaw; you heard the crack as the bone dislocated. The fae shot his hands up to his mouth while Shay hit his ankle with the stick so hard the bone shot out. The succubus stood above him like the warrior she was as she sucked the chi out of him killing him quickly. It also gave her the power up she needed. The older succubus looked back at Lauren with bright blue eyes.
The group that was behind the fire saw the whole thing. "She's kind of bad ass, huh," Selene asked the Morrigan. "Honey that succubus lives for this," she didn't hide the pride she had for the dark fae. She wasn't there when Shay fought with Odin but hearing the stories of how powerful the sorcerer is and knowing he picked Shay to be his right hand spoke volumes. Now it was easy to see why. The older succubus moved with precision. The way she handled her fighting stick was fluid. Each attack was sudden and with hard impacts. Everyone saw her kill two fae in minutes.
Kaya smiled at the succubus who became her friend. She wasn't the type to hide behind flames neither and she jumped through them as well. Tamsin quickly followed. Lauren watched the other two come through. "Guys, this is crazy you should all be back there." The seethe appreciated their loyalty to her and keeping their word but she didn't want anyone getting hurt. Tamsin rolled her eyes, "Listen blondie we need you to live so the Wanderer doesn't hand us our asses. Besides I want to play too." The seethe almost laughed if it wasn't for the fact that they were being attacked. Her friends were starting to treat this like a party more than the life threatening situation that it was.
Tamsin had on her true face as she faced the three fae in front of her. "Party is over boys," the three fae kept their eyes on the Valkyrie before they turned and started to beat each other. Tamsin put her normal face back on as she watched the fight before her. They didn't have too much time to enjoy the show as seven fae headed towards them. Tamsin and Kaya stood near each other as they watched the fae approaching. Lauren stood slightly in front of them as she closed her eyes. "Duck," they heard the seethe whisper but it was too late. Fae parts flew all over them. "Next time you go all Carrie on them, warn us more than a second ahead of time."
That was it the full fledge war started. Fae were coming in from every angle. Kenzi had to lower the circle so that they had a complete view of what was going on and not a distorted one from behind the flames. Bo was free of Dyson as a shifter made his move on the wolf. She looked back to see Dyson already had his yellow eyes and claws out as he went to attack the incoming shifter. The brunette tried to make out the shifter attacking him but she felt herself being pulled away. She lifted her eyes and was met by bright green ones staring back at her. "Don't leave my side," the seethe commanded. The succubus had no problem with that. Fighting by her lover's side was exactly where she wanted to be.
From outside of the fighting area Cedric was circling the perimeter. He was able to find the fae that were trying to kill the seethe and followed them here. The Moreel waited patiently in the background to see what was going to happen. He watched as Shay was easily taking out every fae that came towards her. It was easy to see why the wanderer loved this warrior. Every life she took she stole their chi. Each time it made her stronger and stronger. She was quite the force. Cedric took in Evony who was always standing behind someone else and when the opportunity presented itself she would peer around the person and melt the attacking fae with ease. All the others seemed to be holding their own as well. He scanned the area till he saw Isabeau. She was next to the seethe which was expected. Now he had to make sure he kept his mind blank and wasn't seen. There was no way he was letting this group kill the seethe. From behind he would attack and kill as many as he could.
Two fae stood in front of Jade. The twin smiled at them as if they were old friends, "Hi boys, check this out," she threw her pixie dust in their face and laughed as they froze in their tracks. Her twin sister pulled them back and sucked the chi out of both. When they fell to the floor dead she winked at Jade. Aurora nodded back, "Glad to help."
Dyson was fighting a lynx shifter. Both had claws out and both were growling and circling each other. The lynx swiped at the wolf's abdomen but Dyson was quick and was able to move out of the way. He lunged for the lynx but it jumped far out of his reach. The wolf realized this wasn't going to be as easy as he was hoping. Although the wolf was fast the lynx had the ability to jump at least three feet out of the way. He was going to have to out think the lynx if he wanted to win.
The siren was standing by Kenzi using a high pitched whistle to knock any fae that got close enough unconscious. Once they were out cold Kenzi would throw a fireball at them. She felt bad burning them to death. The hybrid tried not to considering they were the ones trying to kill her and her friends. She took some comfort in knowing that they were knocked out so at least they weren't feeling it.
Carrig was standing in front of four fae. They were moving with a fierce determination to kill the leader of the light fae. As they got closer they no longer saw the broken down building or the empty lot they were in. Instead they were in the desert. Every where they looked they saw sand and cactus. The four looked back and forth at each other wondering what just happened to them. Suddenly four became three and three became two. The two sat there locking eyes with each other not knowing what to do or where to go. And then there was one. He got so frantic that he started swinging everywhere. Suddenly he was back in the parking lot as he felt the grip on his neck tighten. The last thing he saw before he died was the smile that was plastered on Carrig's face.
Selene and Kaya were back to back fighting fae as they came at them. As far as they could tell none of their friends suffered any injuries as of yet but they still had a long way to go. Kaya called out to Lauren, "Laur, how many more of these bastards?" As the fae became engrossed in their fight their thoughts started to flood their minds. She quickly learned there were 82 that were fighting them all together. Hearing Kaya asking the remainder made her reach out to learn there was still 60 of them and not one of the Under Fae had been killed. Plus they still had their shifters and Mesmer. This was just the start of a long battle. "60 left with all the Under Fae untouched." The blonde called back to the dark fae succubus. Kaya shrugged her shoulders at Selene, "22 down 60 to go."
Vex was headed towards Lauren and Bo when he felt his arm move up to his throat. There was nothing he could do to stop from choking himself. There was no point in trying to scream as his own grip was tightening. He did the only thing he could think of doing and screamed in his own mind for the seethe to help him. The seethe heard her friend's inner yelling. "I think we found the other Mesmer," she muttered to Bo as she was on the move grabbing the brunette's hand. There was no chance that she was going to leave the succubus alone. Chaos was all around them. The blonde saw Evony with her three goons. She stood in the middle of them let them do the actual fighting and would snake around one using her ability to melt the fae when her goon had the upper hand. Her other two goons were in fist to fist combat.
Selene and Kaya were back to back taking turns attacking the fae that were coming at them. They worked pretty well together and had some fancy moves. Lauren watched as Kaya and Selene hooked arms. Kaya then bent down as Selene flipped over her back landing on the fae's shoulders that was attacking them. She used her legs to break his neck and jumped off as the fae went down. The seethe found it odd how well the two worked together and would remember to talk to them about it later provided they all lived. Shay still had the appearance and presence of a dark warrior. That stick was flying all over the place but not one fae got close to her and many were trying.
Even the twins seemed to be in an okay position. Taking turns using both abilities they were holding their own. Carrig seemed to be enjoying himself as anyone got near him just stopped moving. The blonde knew he was using his abilities to put their mind in another place. This made it easy for the Ash to pick them off. Kenzi was using fire as Hale was using his siren powers. Together they made quite the team. Dyson finally slashed the neck of the lynx that he had been fighting for the past few minutes. His victory was short lived as an Ogre stepped in front of the shifter. Lauren quickly used her telekinesis to pull at the Mesmer that was attacking Vex. Easily throwing Vex's attacker into the Ogre, it only stunned both but it gave the four the temporary advantage.
Their Mesmer quickly took the opportunity to return the favor to the one who attacked him. "Try it on for size," he said to the Mesmer he was attacking in his usual tone. Lauren, Bo and Dyson were facing the Ogre watching as he swung back his hammer. Trying to anticipate where it was going to come down the three kept their eye on it. The Chimera was waiting in the shadows as she looked on. The under fae was waiting for her opportunity to attack the seethe she got her chance when the hammer came down. The Chimera acted fast as soon as she saw the powerful fae scatter she ran at her. Lauren heard her thoughts before the Under Fae attacked. The seethe turned and before Lauren had time to react Bo grabbed the Under Fae by the neck. The succubus made sure to keep the fangs far away from her. She didn't have to wait long as her girlfriend came up next to her, "That could have turned out very badly," Lauren explained to her as she snapped the Chimera's neck. "One Under Fae down."
Udano was standing in the background looking on at the battle that was taking place in front of him. He moved with the speed of lighting going to slice Bo. The seethe had already sensed the attack and grabbed Bo to her. The scratch went across the blonde's back. She hissed out in pain but did not stop. Lauren got up to face him but he was already back to where he once was standing. "Lauren," the shock in the shifter's voice was evident even in the one word he uttered. Bo went over to him seeing her lover's back. It had four deep scratches embedded into her back. The blood was flowing freely down her back. "I'm fine," the blonde stated as she grabbed Bo's hand to avoid the Kenes.
Dyson went to attack her but she was moving too fast. He shifted to the full wolf to run after the Under Fae. One of the light fae guards was standing near the whole scene that just played out in front of him. He knew that they needed Lauren in this battle as well as the upcoming one. He took the dagger from his hand and sliced his arm getting the Kenes's attention. The smell of both wounds had the Kenes stop for a moment but a moment was all the wolf needed. Dyson leapt into the air grabbing at the neck of the Under Fae.
Lauren and Bo were now near Shay and the dark haired succubus saw the seethe's back immediately. The older succubus moved towards the duo, "Lauren what the hell happened?"
"I'm fine, how are you doing over here?" The seethe was not worried about her wounds it was true she would heal. She was more concerned with the current situation which was still pretty bad. "She moved me out of the way of Udano's attack." If Lauren wasn't going to let Shay know what happened Bo sure as hell would. The dark fae swung the fighting stick knocking out the fae that was charging towards them. She took him and threw him at Bo, "Feed then kiss your girlfriend and stop that fucking bleeding." The younger succubus didn't need to be told twice. She sucked the chi out of the fae till he fell dead at her feet. As soon as he slumped down the brunette spun around towards her girlfriend sucking the chi out of her. Bo knew it was risky since Lauren had to allow her to pull the chi but she had faith that the seethe would allow it. She was right but it was temporary as Lauren switched it up. Kissing her lover first before pulling away as she pushed the chi into Bo. Shay made sure no one went near them while this happened. The older succubus was stunned by the affect Bo had on the seethe. The wounds stopped bleeding and cauterized.
"Hate to interrupt but I found the Minotaur," Shay said to the two as she kept her eyes on the Under Fae in front of her. Lauren and Bo immediately pulled away from each other. Bo's mouth almost hit the floor as she stared up at the large fae in front of them. He was easily almost ten feet tall. A fireball hit his back but he barely flinched even at the smell of his burning flesh. He huffed out fire of his own. "He breathes fire," the brunette asked as she rolled out of the way. The only thing Lauren noticed was Bo and Shay were on one side and she was on the other. The seethe immediately reached out with her mind to see what fae were going for her soulmate. To her relief the only one they had to worry about at this point was the very agitated Minotaur. Kenzi and Hale came up behind the blonde. Now it was the five of them verse the Minotaur.
Evony stood next to Carrig, "The seethe wanted us working together and now look at us side by side. It's a Kodak moment." The dark fae leader had a fake smile on as she spoke. "What happened to your guards Evony," Carrig inquired.
"They died for a good cause. Protecting me and now I am here next to you my lucky day." She knew he was down to only one guard himself the best way for them to make sure they got through this was working together. She saw Shay, Hale, Kenzi, Bo and Lauren in the distance with the Minotaur. "Don't go over that way. There are five of them they have it covered." There was no way she was going to try and fight a Minotaur even with her fae powers. Evony secretly smiled to herself as she saw Kaya and Selene working well together. Both had some cuts and were bleeding but they would heal as they kept killing attacking fae. Six fae of light and dark came out surrounding there old leaders. "Let me guess you didn't like my leadership," Evony spat out as she turned one of her dark fae into goo.
Tamsin was with Vex, "Shit, I'm too old for this," the Valkyrie said as she bent over to catch her breath. She groaned as another seven fae headed their way. She straightened herself back up as she put her hand on her new partner's shoulder, "Here's to us, may you not die protecting the fucking seethe." The Valkyrie put on her true face as she put her attention on their new attackers. Vex lifted his hand as he took the hand of the one fae making him stab the other one. He let out his normal giggle of delight. He truly loved the fae he was. The Mesmer stopped the oncoming fae attack, "Stop right there you sir have earned the right to die by me." As the fae twisted his arm around to stab himself in the neck.
Cedric was circling around the attack whenever the opportunity presented itself he would come out and crush a fae. He had to keep on his toes and be careful no one saw his presence. The Moreel just got done doing a new count. There was still 44 fae left and the seethe's group wasn't in prime shape. The light had one guard left, the dark had none, Dyson was in the middle of fighting two shifters from the look of it they were some kind of bird, and the seethe was injured. Currently she was with Isabeau, the hybrid, the former Ash, and Shay fighting the Minotaur. Cedric was almost mesmerized with Shay's fighting skills. He wanted to help with the Under Fae but knew there was no way for him to do so without one of them noticing him. For now he would have to make sure the seethe or Bo didn't die.
Jade and Aurora had the upper hand for awhile but when the lighter haired twin used her pixie dust on a fae and it didn't work it took a turn for the two. The bigger fae grabbed Aurora by the neck lifting her off the ground. Jade jumped on his back punching the top of his head. He slammed back into a tree as she dropped off of him and he tossed Aurora to the ground. Bending back over he picked up Jade lifting her up now. Till suddenly he went down to his knees falling face down into the ground. Jade was on her knees now looking to see Selene and Kaya standing there. The three went over to Aurora who had a broken shoulder. Jade told them to go back and fight while she would protect her twin. The two went over to the leaders of the light and dark.
Carrig stepped forward as he saw the Jikininki. "Evony when he goes off into a trance use your ability on him. Don't hesitate and don't disappoint me. The seethe will find out about it." The Morrigan hated threats she hated them more when she knew there was a possibility of them being true. With all the chaos around them she couldn't tell if one of the sunshine gang heard what Carrig said. She wasn't going to take the chance. The Jikininki never looked like he went into a trance of course it was hard to be absolutely sure without being able to look in his eyes. "I'm waiting sweetie," the dark fae leader huffed out. "My abilities aren't working on him," Carrig was confused as to why nothing was happening. "Oh, did you get that too and here I thought it was only me." Evony's tone was full of sarcasm.
Selene and Kaya saw the Jikininki walking towards the fae leaders. They didn't want to make too much noise and catch the Under Fae's attention. Both of them kept getting wounds but used the fae they killed to heal. Selene pointed to Kaya then to the Jikininki making the motion to attack from behind while only one kept their eyes open. Kaya knew what she was implying, one attack while the other stays behind and is the eyes for the one. The older dark fae had more experience fighting and decided to go for the attack. She closed her eyes and lunged for the Under Fae. Selene kept her eyes on the whole thing. The supposed light fae watched as Kaya jumped on the Jikininki's back. He easily swung her off as he moved towards her. "He is right in front of you," Selene called out. Kaya kicked her foot out catching the Under Fae in the thigh. Carrig attacked him from the side seeing this new distraction. He kept his head down as he went down for his legs knocking the zombie fae onto his back. Evony ran around and touched his shoulder watching as he melted at her touch. "What can I say my touch is killer," the Morrigan flashed a radiant smile.
Lauren was keeping her eyes on the Minotaur when she saw Vex fly past her hitting the building. The Mesmer wasn't moving. She reached out to him mentally as she kept her eyes on the huge Under Fae. "Tamsin what is going on," the seethe questioned. "We found the Gogmagog and in case you were wondering Mesmer powers don't work on him. Neither does Valkyries."
This was the exact position she didn't want them in. Some Under Fae were immune to other fae abilities and now they were in that very position. There were still at least thirty light and dark fae and they still had the Minotaur, both Ogres, the Gogmagog, and Udano. In the corner of her eye she saw Dyson join his former partner as they took on the Gogmagog. Then she heard four other fae about to join them. She was going to tell Hale and Kenzi to help them but she saw Evony, Carrig, Selene and Kaya join the shifter and Valkyrie.
Selene ran at the back of the huge Under Fae and leapt in the air planting both feet firmly in the back as she hit the ground. Unfortunately for her the power kick had virtually no effect on the gigantic Gogmagog as he stood perfectly still only turning to glance down at what just hit him. He made a fist and went to smash his hand down on her but Kaya slid in the way. The fist came down on her. She let out a scream as she felt her leg break from the strength of the Under Fae. Selene hated to do this but she had no choice. The succubus grabbed Kaya under her arms and pulled her away from there. Kaya kept screaming but it didn't stop Selene. She brought her over to Aurora. "We stick together and protect these two," the full blooded succubus told the twin. The two of them weren't looking so good themselves but at least they didn't have broken bones.
Cedric was behind an Ogre. He threw a pebble at the back of his head. The stupid Ogre just moved his hand over the spot that was just hit. The Moreel repeated the action to which the Ogre repeated his action. Cedric couldn't believe it. "Are you really that stupid you big ugly fae." The Ogre heard that and swirled around to see where the voice was coming from. He made a face at the small fae and swung his hammer down. The Moreel dodged it and went for the Ogre's knee hitting it at his full fae strength. The Ogre roared in pain and went down. The loud noise made Cedric vanish from the area. He couldn't be seen by anyone.
Dyson heard the scream and turned briefly to see the Ogre go down but had no idea why. He saw Bo, Lauren, Shay, Hale and Kenzi fighting the Minotaur. He was with Tamsin, Evony and Carrig fighting the Gogmagog. Jade and Selene were protecting Aurora and Kaya. Vex was out cold. He wondered what happened to the Ogre to make him suddenly fall down the way he did. The shifter wasn't going to second guess it instead he was going to use the opportunity. He did his half shift as he ran towards the Ogre. While it was still down he used his claws to viciously attack his neck. The wolf ripped and ripped till the neck was wide open with the blood quickly pouring out of it.
Kenzi used the fire the Minotaur was breathing to throw it back at him. It had no effect but it kept him occupied on her. Hale hit him with a siren whistle and the bull put his head down as he charged at the light fae. The siren went to get out of the way but he wasn't quick enough. He was hit on the side and tossed into Kenzi. The Minotaur was happy to have taken both down. The Under Fae turned back to the three remaining fae. The large fae grabbed Shay's fighting stick out of her hand and crushed it. He lunged forward for the dark fae and Lauren pulled her out of the way. He hit the seethe and she went up in the air flew back five feet and hit the ground hard. The brunette raced to her side. "That I am going to feel tomorrow," the blonde said as she stood up stretching out her back. Bo had enough she closed her eyes feeling her father's powers in her. She opened up her blinding blue eyes after a couple of minutes passed by. The succubus stood back as she pulled the chi from as many of her enemies that she could.
The seethe stood beside her lover as she watched all but ten fae die. The chi was sucked from some of the Under Fae but not enough to knock any out. Lauren took the opportunity and closed her eyes as she reached out to the Minotaur who was still standing in front of them. The Under Fae had a look of shock cross his face briefly as he imploded all around the group. This gave the gang a new charge of energy as the shift was finally back to their side. Dyson, Tamsin, Carrig and Evony went around the Gogmagog attacking from every angle. Shay and Bo went after the other Ogre as Lauren stepped into Udano's view.
The thin Under Fae smiled. "You think you won seethe?"
The blonde glanced down at her friends. They were tired, bruised and broken but they kept going. There was only ten fae left, an Ogre and the Gogmagog that her friends currently had the upper hand with. "I would say it is pretty close." She watched as the Gogmagog went down. Carrig had no problem finishing the large Under Fae. The Gogmagog got one last hit in before he went down knocking out the Valkyrie. Dyson pulled her to safety as the Under Fae died. This left Dyson, Carrig, and Evony to join Bo and Shay with the ten fae and the Ogre.
Udano flashed down to the scene before Lauren was able to say another word. Her heart stopped as she knew exactly who he was going for. It was too late as she saw the expression on Bo's face as her abdomen was ripped open.
