Ice Queen screams as she flies forward, hands in front of her as she leaps onto Hana's face. She grips on tight on the demon's head and blasts it with ice magic, creating an ice cube so large it completely envelopes them both. Yet still supercharged from absorbing her stored up souls, Hana instantly breaks free with a glare. She swats at the royal on her face, but she leaps off before the giant woman could even touch her, landing on both her feet as she glares up at her.
The massive demon raises her giant foot to stomp on her, but the queen simply raises both hands straight up and creates a massive ice spike above her. The limb pierces itself on the counter attack, but that doesn't stop Hana as she continues to push pressure on Ice Queen. The legs of the woman buckle as she attempts to resist being crushed under her own magic, the royal groaning in effort as she focuses her magic into her feet on the ground.
A massive wave of ice shoots from her foot and slams into Hana, knocking her other foot out from under her, 'Pain might not stop you, but this can!' Ice Queen thinks with a grin as she trips the demon, the Lady of the night-o-sphere tumbling to the ground. Without any stable ground and more focused on stopping her fall, her icicle pierced foot flies of the royal, taking the icicle with it.
The royal smirks as her hands were free, and lunges at the downed hell spawn, going for the face again. She lands on her face and immediately makes some very long and sharp claws, before savagely unleashing her fury on the woman. Flesh is easily rent on the first swipe, but on the next her claws fail to do any damage, Hana focusing her magic on her defence again. Ice Queen doesn't care as she continues to swipe at her face unrelentingly, 'I've got to buy time for Finn and the others to get out of range!'
The hell spawn snaps her arms to remove the royal again, wrapping her long sharp fingers around the blue woman and squeezing. The ice armour holds for now, protecting her from harm as she spins her pinned hands around, trying to locate the fingers of Hana. Her sharp blue fingers rub against the massive demon's digits, and Ice Queen immediately launches her attack of incredibly sharp icicles. They shred through the digit, giving her more room to aim at the next one, what Hana instantly notices and quickly retaliates.
She swings her arm back, then snaps it back around front, throwing Ice Queen at the wall harshly, hoping the impact will stun her. The royal slams into the rock, getting stuck in it for a second before she flops to the floor, but quickly leaps back to her feet. She snaps her eyes to Hana, only to see a massive hand glowing with green magic. With a scream she shoots her hand up and blasts a massive super ice beam, just in time to collide with a huge evil one from Hana.
They meet mere meters from their casters, and equal each other, neither making progress as the beams wrestle with the other to make progress. A massive ball of pure magic forms from the epicentre of the beams collision, slowly growing out as a colour mix of the two clashing spells. The adversaries grimace but continue their attacks with a yell of anger, neither backing down as the sphere of magic continues to grow.
Lighting arcs out from the ball, striking the ground and ceiling in uncontrollable barrage of destruction, causing the rock roof to crumble. Stones fall as a cave in begins, but neither of the clashing duo care as they focus completely on killing the other, their magic becoming more violent. Then, one of the falling boulders fall directly on the centre of the clashing beams, and disturbs whatever power balance was in play. A huge magic explosion roars out from between the duo, slamming them both into the walls as a humongous wave of pure magic destroys everything around them.
A huge sphere is burnt into the world, growing larger and larger as it releases the combined energy of two supercharged spells. Tunnels and caves are simply erased, including one unfortunate group of demons within one of them, who are simply deleted from the world before they could do as much as scream.
Hana and Ice Queen survive meanwhile, the massive demon putting all her magic into her defence to survive, while the royal erects a massive ice shield before her, thick enough to protect her. They get pushed along with the expanding bubble for seven long seconds, before it eventually ends by imploding in on itself. Both of them groaned, flopping to the floor as they recover their lost strength, lifting their heads to gaze at the new scenario they were in.
The explosion had erased everything in a massive radius, the new humongous chamber being split into two different sections. There was the side Hana was on, made of sizzling red rocks as steam rises from the ground, all her erased rock being melted down and coated onto the wall, where it quickly dried as a thick layer. On Ice Queen's side, everything had a layer of frost upon it, with her molten rock being frozen onto the walls with a thick layer of ice, once again a durable protective layer.
The incredibly tough layers coating every surface would not stop their attacks, but it did support the massive chamber for the time being, preventing the heavy weight of the world above them from collapsing down. They glare at each other and stand up tall, Ice Queen melting her shield to free her hand as she prepares to attack, hands and eyes glowing. The massive demon scoffs, "Glowy things, so scary! You're dying here blue, then I can go back to tearing the souls from your friends."
The royal simply shoots another beam of ice, causing Hana to leap out of the way, using her buffed up form to go flying away from the attack. Ice Queen doesn't relent however, keeping the beam tracking the Lady of the night-o-sphere as she follows her evasive moves across the large sphere room. Due to such a shape, she ends up grabbing the wall and start scaling it, making leaps as she perfectly timed her dodges. The royal halts for a second, scowling as she shoots another beam of solid ice at a wall ahead of her.
But instead of being a deadly laser, it instead creates a humongous wall of ice, nearly a mile wide and several meters thick, spanning so tall it nearly filled the room. Hana simply glares and pounces on it, using her naturally sharp demon claws to hook onto it before waiting for a split second. Ice Queen immediately spams out icicles larger than her at the still demon, who grins at the incoming attack. Just before the icicles strike her, she yanked herself up and into the air, using her buffed strength to go flying upwards.
Ice Queen's attacks slam into where she just hang with deadly precision, leaving no space unscathed as the giant icicles sink their sharp points into the wall. Hana grins as she begins to fall back down, landing straight back down onto the icicles feet first with a heavy thump. She springs up and raises both hands, then begins unleashing spells of toxic green magic, massive orbs with chaotic electric energy shooting out of them. They rocket towards Ice Queen, who simply flaps her eyebrows, shooting into the air just as the attacks strike her position, exploding in violent green explosions. The royal continues to hover up, until getting to the very centre of the sphere room, where she floats, eyes locked on Hana.
The leader of all demons huffs as she leaps off her icicle, shooting off a beam in the royal's general direction, forcing her to take evasive manoeuvres instead of targeting the easy to predict fall of Hana. The hell spawn lands on the floor hard, then immediately bursts into a sprint, snapping her arms sideways as she releases bursts of magic.
Her spells fly as she begins a lap of the chamber, though Ice Queen, still floating in the sky, simply dodges them with ease, lifting her own hands high above her, as if holding some huge weapon above her head. Sure enough, a second later a huge two handed war hammer forms in her hand, half the size of the room. It may of been too heavy for her to swing, but not for gravity as it pulls it to the ground.
Hana grimaces and focuses her magic in defence, 'I'm out of range but this is still gonna hurt!' Sure enough, the hammer slams down halfway between them, creating a massive shockwave. The ground shakes and Hana loses her footing, stumbling as the second phase of the hammer attack begins. The slam breaks the ground, causing huge boulders to fly up, what the shockwave then carries.
They shoot out like bullets in all directions, smashing into everything as a deadly supersized shrapnel, including Hana. She may off buffed her defences with magic, what caused the rock to simply shatter upon striking her, but she can't do anything about momentum. She is sent flying by the boulder, slamming into the ice wall with a massive shatter, broken ice now trying to penetrate her reinforced form. She was stuck in the wall, embedded in it as her limbs stick out limply.
Ice Queen shifts her hammer, shattering it and turning it into thousands of icicles, before promptly making them spin around her. She becomes a floating blender of super sharp icicles as she floats towards Hana cautiously, 'If she is out, then I can find the others and get out.' The hell spawn's eyes snapped open as she glared at the royal with unbridled fury.
Ice Queen quickly raises a hand and shoot a massive ice sphere at her, exploding into a storm of shrapnel. Unfortunately, Hana had leaped out of her stuck position before the sphere could hit, causing the shrapnel to only hit her back. Most of it deflects off, but some actually stick in by a centimetre, causing black blood to ooze from the very shallow wounds. The towering demon spins and glares at the royal, snapping her glowing hand to the flying woman and blasting her with a green laser again.
Ice Queen has no time to counter or evade, so she simply braces her ice armoured for impact. The spell slams into her, making her gasp in pain as she is sent flying, smoking as she herself slams into Hana's sizzling rocks. She goes much deeper into the wall than Hana did, and lays limply, breathing heavily as her body screams in pain, the only reason she wasn't dead from that spell was because of her armour. She grimaces, 'I can't do any of the big spells I need to do bring her down because of the others! If I knew I wouldn't hit them in any way then I could floor this bitch!'
She hears heavy thumps rapidly approaching, and her eyes widen. She quickly jumps out of her hole… and into Hana's waiting hand. The moment she touches the palm, the fingers snap in, crushing her as she struggles within her tight grasp. Of course, the hell spawn knew her armour would protect her just like last time, so she immediately threw the woman at the wall. She hit it hard and bounces off it, landing on the floor a bit away, forcing Hana to spin and charge the downed woman.
She leaps as she approaches, jumping in the air as she aims her massive feet at Ice Queen, planning to crush her as fast as possible. The royal snaps out of her daze however, eyes widen as she watches the incoming hell spawn, and snaps both hands up, blasting a huge ice spell. It was like a shotgun blast, and since Hana had focused magic from defence to speed, the approaching limb is simply liquidated.
Momentum carries through her body, sending her a tumbling backwards as black blood splurts out the missing limb. Despite most of it splattering down atop Ice Queen, she doesn't care. She instead backpedals immediately, getting distance between her and the massive woman before flapping her eyebrows. She quickly rises into the air, boosting even further away as she watches the hell spawn regenerate her injuries, scrambling to her feet as she glared at the distanced royal.
Ice Queen immediately lifts both open hands, putting them together as she aims point on Hana, 'Power is key! The more she has to heal the more she burns through her soul boost!' With that, her hands glow with a massive sphere of bright blue, charging up for a couple seconds before unleashing all the stored energy. A humongous super beam of ice several meters thick slams into Hana, making the entire room glow with blue light.
Hana is frozen solid and glows blindingly for a second, before an explosion of solid ice spreads out from her as Ice Queen stops the spell. It fills half of the chamber, crackling as it settles onto hot rock as Ice Queen squints her glowing eyes. Deep inside the massive spell was Hana, frozen completely still, yet that does not calm the royal, 'She broke out last time!' So she flies towards it, arm outstretched as she desperately reaches for the ice, 'I've got to shatter it with her inside! That would obliterate her!'
Yet just before her hand touches the cold block, it glows red, making the royal gasp and brace. It explodes, shattering out from the raging form of Hana as the broken ice fragments fly towards Ice Queen. She is slammed by the remains of her spell, her armour protecting her mostly as she sent flying backwards, ragdolling uncontrollably. With a grunt she halts herself, floating in the air as she scowls at Hana, struggling to keep her tiara's rage in check.
'Must... hold back for the others!' Hana doesn't however, growling as she charges towards the flying woman, truly now enraged. She lifts her hands and begins spamming out more death orbs, the massive explosive green orbs drifting towards Ice Queen. She tries simply flying out of their way, but they follow her, tracking their flying target with ease, forcing the royal to focus on them.
She abandons watching the rapidly approaching super demon to spam her own spells at the incoming attacks. Icicles fly from her hand, slamming into the massive green orbs with a huge magic explosion, the shockwave from the first popping the others. Like dominos, they all pop in huge explosions, whipping up wind that forces Ice Queen to look away to protect her eyes. Something Hana exploits as she runs at the first massive ice wall her foe had made, and leaps onto it, then quickly starts scaling it aggressively.
Her claws sink into the ice and yank her up, tearing out chunks of the wall with every pull. Ice Queen recovers from the spell Hana had launched as a distraction, and spins to face the quickly approaching demon, raising both hands. She starts up two thick ice beams, then does a quick sweep at the wall with both of them, causing Hana to act quickly. She grunts as she throws herself backwards off the wall, allowing the attacks to just barely skim by her, before snapping her black tentacles from behind her, ordering them to hook onto the wall.
Four tendrils shoot forward, piercing into the wall before yanking the entire form of Hana onto it once more. She doesn't waste time and begins rapidly climbing the wall again, pretty much taking lunges with every step. The flying royal goes to attack again, but it is too late, Hana had reached her level. The massive demon swats the ice she was hanging on with magically boosted strength, smashing it and sending it flying towards the royal.
She immediately makes a shield with her raised hand, letting the huge chunks slam into it harmlessly. With her not on the offensive, Hana immediately uses it to her advantage, leaping from the wall towards Ice Queen. She latches onto the still existing shield, then with claws glowing with evil green magic, she smashes her hand through it. She grabs the startled royal and squeezes hard, making her yelp and groan in pain as sounds of cracking escapes her form.
Ice Queen drops the shield as they both fall, her eyebrows no longer keeping her flying, tears in her eyes from the pain, 'Sorry Finn, but I can't hold back anymore, please be safe!' And instantly her eyes flare a bright blue, and an explosion of ice comes off her form, a super sized version of the the one she used on Finn the first time they met. Hana is shot off her as the entire chamber becomes ground zero, slamming into the wall as Ice Queen's spell obliterates more of the world, making their arena even bigger.
Finn meanwhile continues to follow their demon as it leads the way, the hero periodically taking peeks behind him to make sure everyone was following. They were right behind him, every step of the way. The world suddenly shakes, stumbling everyone as they struggle to remain on their feet, Finn looking up in worry as rock fall around them at a rapid pace, "They're going at it hard! We need to move, now!"
He reaches out and helps Fionna and Huntress to their feet, making sure they were alright before charging forward again. They rush after the demon, watching as the cave begins to collapse on them, rocks and dust filling the air. They try their best to cover their mouths, struggling to breath as their throats and lungs take heaps of the fine dust. Falling boulders eventually start blocking their path, causing everyone to bob and weave around them, the hero worrying as some fall close to the others, 'Please cave, last till we get out!'
They start running into a massive chamber, one with multiple tunnels all around the place, making Huntress grin, "This must be one, if not the main chambers! We're nearly at some exit!" Finn nods, and glances at the ceiling, and is horrified to find huge cracks snaking around, before huge chunks bigger than him start to break off from the roof.
"Boulders!" He warns, putting the others safety before focusing about dodging to save his own. The rest of the group look up, and finds an avalanche is pretty much on their hands, making them scramble in all directions to avoid being crushed. They remain close together while still pushing forward, struggling to follow the demon as it attempts to lead the way.
Huntress flies through the obstacles with ease, her years of weaving around trees on the hunt showing as she dives through tight holes and leaps around rocks, even wall running at one point for a couple of seconds. Cake meanwhile just shrank, making herself as small to hit as possible, yet still stretching her leg ridiculously, taking huge steps around any obstacle in her way. At one point she even dives into a small tunnel and serpentine through it before popping back out and landing on her sister.
The heroine was just barely dodging things, doing blocky turns and stiff changes in movement, yet her years of fighting also shines through as her body never stops or slow, her endurance never ending. She dodges the rock attacks last second, zigzagging around every threat as she checks on Cake riding her shoulder, making sure she was safe.
Then her hero's eyes glance at the others, making sure they were all still with her, and locks onto Finn. He was carrying Butterscotch with ease, helping the tiny butler in escaping death without a drop of sweat. But the more impressive thing that amazed the girl was his agility, jumping between and atop rocks like it was nothing. He leaps atop a boulder in front of him before sliding down it, never slowing down as he goes in as straight of a line as possible.
He barely does any major movements, no massive leaps or hard turns, just simply parkour-ing his way through the rain of rocks. He even jumps atop a rock, then runs up it a little before leaping onto a second level, finding it flatter and easier to run across. Fionna stares in mesmerized awe, nearly running face first into a rock before Cake saves them by yanking her head to face ahead. She easily dodges to the side, slowing a second before continuing her charge with a nervous chuckle, "Heh, sorry Cake… but do you think Finn will teach me how to do that!?"
Cake stares ahead with worry, simply preparing to carry the girl herself in a second, "Later Fionna, later!" The heroine snaps out of her wonder of Finn, focusing on trying to keep track of the demon disappearing behind red rocks and clouds of dust.
They all watch it as it suddenly does a hard left, diving into a random cave in the wall, and immediately the whole group converges on it. Finn and Huntress were right after it, their ability to dart around the chaotic environment with ease allowing them to be at the front, the duo never slowing down for a second. As Huntress Wizard helps Finn position Butterscotch comfortably on his back mid run, Fionna and Cake leap into the cave as well, just in time to escape the whole chamber caving in.
It changes the air pressure, and a wave of wind slams into the group, shoving them all to the floor in a team wipe. The cave decay doesn't stop however, and rocks start falling atop them, forcing them all to scramble to their feet, ignoring the pain and aches their bodies were screaming. They push up the tight tunnel, sprinting as fast as they can as they dread a rock falling in front of them.
However, they suddenly run into a blockage of another type: demons. Seems to be one of the other groups were also making their daring escape, though out of confusion, simply not knowing what direction they should be going, their memory of the path destroyed by the labyrinth. They all snap their head to the group, and Finn doesn't risk anyone's safety, "Demons follow our group and do not attack us!"
They all stiffen, allowing Finn and the others to run by them without a single injury, the demon swarm swiftly following close behind them. Butterscotch peers over her shoulder, staring at the demons from the hero's back, then stares at the back of his head, "Why did you tell the demons to follow us? You're risking more trouble for us by bringing them along." Finn shakes his head,
"And I don't want anything dying unnecessarily! There is no point for unneeded bloodshed if it could be prevented." He explains with a grin, making the butler sigh and Huntress smirk.
Ice Queen could only hope she wasn't causing trouble and pain for the others right now, but she has had enough. If she continued to hold back, Hana would wreck her, especially since she hasn't been going all out so far. It was only after analysing her body for next movements did she realise it, she was holding back a little, testing the waters of her powers.
She was trying to make the royal become overconfident, cocky, and then swiftly cut her down when her guard was lowered. Ice Queen glares her glowing eyes, wind howling in her ears as a massive blizzard surrounded her, swirling icicles acting as a blender, ready to shred any incoming attack or Hana, 'That makes sense, I doubt she would of been in charge of thousands of demons trying to overthrow her this long if she wasn't smart.' So without knowing the limits of the strength of this buffed up Hana, her only hope was to go hard now while she was holding herself back.
She just barely holds in a huge sigh though, 'It's a shame I can't do any big spells right now, I'm really having to hold the tiara back right now…' She glares at Hana as she climbs out of the wall of the now even larger chamber, making her lift her arms and shoot two more super buffed ice beams at her.
She simply leaps out of the way with a huge grin, knowing she was getting on the royal's nerves as the flying woman growls in anger, 'Damn, this is infuriating! But I need to hold back for the others!... Oh how I wish Finn and Huntress were at home safe, cuddling together while they don't have to deal with my problems…' She fires more lasers, trying her best to conserve energy and not wear her physical body out, 'I just need to use these beams, keep her back to buy everyone time, then fuck her up!'
Her attack misses again, the massive demon moving shockingly fast as she simply darts around the attacks with a huge grin, 'I found a weakness on the kid stealing bitch! Speed. Her attacks are slow but powerful, and are instantly able to freeze me, so I can't afford to be hit.' She chuckles as she leaps over an ice bomb thrown by Ice Queen,
'And since I'm not frozen-' She lands and skids, throwing up her hands and shooting an enormous green laser at the flying royal, forcing her to take evasive manoeuvres. She smirks as she keeps it up, tracking Ice Queen around the room as she flies sporadically, 'I can keep on attacking until she makes a mistake!' Ice Queen arcs under the green attack, shooting another ice bomb at the Lady of the night-o-sphere, who beams at the incoming projectile.
She raises her other hand and forms a deadly green death sphere, before shooting it the incoming attack. They collide mid air, but the super demon's spell simply obliterates Ice Queen's attack, deleting it from the world in a huge explosion.
Hana beams as Ice Queen keeps attempting to shake the laser off from tracking her, "Well this was fun and something a tad different than usual, but I must really kill your friends and get back to ruling the night-o-sphere with my son. You know how it is." She stops her laser to charge a massive death orb with both hands, larger than two houses, "So I'm done holding back now!"
She unleashes her charged attack, letting it scream through the air. Ice Queen watches as the massive homing orb rapidly approaches her, and shoots an icicle at its core, hoping to make it explode. It just get swallowed and disintegrated by the massive orb attack, allowing the huge green spell to come within meters of the royal. Hana grins from the floor as she watches the fireworks about to take place, gazing at the massive orb as it explodes. It was a bright mix of green and blue, snow and blue sparks falling out of the dust cloud, making Hana giggle,
'She exploded like a glitter bomb!' Then the clouds dissipate, and reveal Ice Queen unscathed, though very angry. She snaps up her arms, but before she could do anything to her foe, Hana becomes a blur in the room, shooting around the room at stupidly high speed. She grimaces as she spins in the air, just barely able to keep an eye on the massive demon as she does tracks around the huge chamber, before the massive demon leaps into the air.
She flies straight towards Ice Queen with a sick grin and claws bared, but fortunately the distance meant the royal had a couple of seconds to prepare herself. She braces as the claws rack against her ice armour, leaving massive scratches in it and sending Ice Queen spinning through the air. Quickly recovering, the blue woman stops mid-air and stares at her body for damage, only to fix her armour in less than a second, 'Thank glob I decided to make that.'
She snaps her gaze to Hana, and discovers her leaping towards her again. She panics and drops from the sky, letting the demon roar over her, claws just barely missing this time. Yet Hana chuckles, making Ice Queen glare as she flapped her eyebrows again, stabilising herself as she watches the demon arc towards the ground, 'She found that funny… she's playing with me. What I guess makes sense with her being a demon.'
She smirks as she stares at the hell spawn squatting, then rocketing into the air towards her again, both of her hands enveloped in toxic green flames. She slashes out at the royal, yet Ice Queen shoots up just before the cursed claws could gut her. She aims both blue glowing hands down beneath her at Hana, and a second later shoots of a massive spell of ice. It strikes the hell spawn, and launches her straight down to the ground, exploding into a massive amount of ice.
Hana groans and attempts to get up, only to find her limbs stuck in a massive ice boulder, yet her head free to move. Annoyed at being frozen, again, she immediately goes to break free, but stops when she looks up at the smirking royal floating high above her, "You may want to tease me before killing me, but I'm the Ice Queen! I've been playing people for a long time! Sure they were mostly men and it was to bed thanks to a curse, but whore?" She lifts her hand above her, and creates a humongous spear bigger than her, aiming straight down at the stuck demon, "You can't beat me! Not when I have someone waiting for me!"
With that she lets go of the gigantic spear, letting gravity do the rest of the work. It flies straight down onto a struggling Hana, the blue spike landing dead centre on her chest as its force shatters the ice and shakes the ground. A massive dust cloud was thrown up by the impact, and Ice Queen doesn't waste time, ordering all the ice that she had just shattered to return to her.
The remains of Hana's brief hold down flies up to the royal and starts to swirl around her, becoming a swarm of razor sharp icicles, 'I'd like to see her try and claw me now!' With a threat removed, she stares down in annoyance, waiting for the clouds to part, and sure enough it does, revealing a very annoyed Hana. She was only a tad wounded, a huge chunk ripped out of her chest as it pools with black blood, yet quickly seals and heals, the towering woman grunting as she pushes herself to her feet. They exchange glares, then all hell breaks loose.
Immediately Hana sprints madly from the floating woman, making herself a harder target to hit as she charges forward at stupid speeds. Ice Queen simply gives chase, hovering close behind her as she raises her hands and starts charging up spells, 'Finn, Huntress... you better be somewhere safe!' With that she releases her magic might in a form of a massive beam.
It strikes the ground behind the sprinting demon with enough force that it shakes the entire chamber, rocks falling from the ceiling. Massive ice spikes spread out of it, snaking out at the speed of lightning as the royal chases the hell spawn down with her super laser. Hana quickly spins around with glowing hands and shoots of two massive death orbs, before continuing her spin to face back around and continue her dash forward. The orbs home towards Ice Queen, making the royal huff in annoyance and momentarily halt and lift her super laser, obliterating the attacks like balloons.
That moment break was all the Lady of the night-o-sphere needed, who halts her sprint to slam her fist into the floor, cracking it with ease. She rips part of the ground up to get a huge boulder, and spins around with it in both hands, leaning backwards before chucking it at the flying woman.
She doesn't care, simply shifting her laser back onto the hell spawn as the rock approaches, and collides with her spinning icicle blizzard. The insane speed reflects the boulder, spinning it away and smashing it somewhere else as Ice Queen raises an eyebrow, 'What is she trying to do?... Doesn't matter, it probably isn't good for me.' With that she pushes herself even harder, trying her best to get the beam to clip Hana at the very least, but she was taking evasive leaps and spins every time she got near.
Unfortunately her magic gets dangerously low, and she is forced to halt her laser spell to recover, dropping from the sky to chase after the hell spawn manually. However the demon was a lot faster than she was, and within a second was shooting away from the angry royal, who huffed as she waits a few seconds for her tiara to recover. She keeps a lock on the sprinting demon, watching as she continues to run around the chamber in a massive circuit.
Then she suddenly makes a beeline for something just as Ice Queen's magic returns, causing the blue woman to instantly shoot into the air and move to intercept her. She creates two orbs of ice, and throws them towards the rushing demoness, letting them arc through the air before they fly upwards. They hover in the air, and create storm clouds in front of Hana, before releasing their payload of deadly icicles.
They barrage the ground so hard and fast that it shakes the chamber they were in, yet the Lady of the night-o-sphere continues to run straight towards them. She yells a war cry as she slashes out her hands, releasing a huge wave of wind that dissipates the cloud, sending any icicles in the air rocketing towards and into the chamber's wall. Then she grins and leaps into the air, before falling into a hole.
Ice Queen raises an eyebrow as she approaches cautiously, 'She made that hole when she picked up that boulder and threw it at me, that was her plan? To make a hiding spot?' She silently glares as she peers into the hole high above it, and finds it was a massive cave now, 'The glob!?' With a cry of rage she aims both hands down and blasts a deep freeze, filling the rock tunnel with sub zero temperatures, 'She better not be going for Finn and Huntress!'
She sustains it for a few seconds, wind blasting by her as her white hair whips behind her, then she suddenly stops, glaring at the ice sealed hole.
The ice filled cave glows green.
Immediately Ice Queen shoots away, raising her hands and charging spells to obliterate whatever came out of that hole. Sure enough, it gets smashed by a green flaming fist, Hana punching her way out as she walks out with a grin, "Sorry, felt some demons were crawling around beneath us, I just had to get some souls." Ice Queen remains silent as she blasts her magic, unleashing swirling vortexes of ice that drift towards Hana.
She immediately moves out of their path, but grins as she runs, her tendrils on her back aiming at the flying royal. Suddenly they glow a familiar green, making Ice Queen take evasive actions immediately as small green orbs leave from them fast, like rockets as they home in towards the flying royal. The woman does spins and flips in the air, trying to shake the determined spells off her as only more leaves the Lady of the night-o-sphere as she rapidly approaches.
Ice Queen panics a little as she finds the demon closing in, and takes even harsher turns in the air, watching as the small orbs of magic shoot by her, slamming into the wall and exploding violently, 'Why is everything she have so deadly!?... Never mind.' She shakes the last few homing one off, making them miss and ram into something else, exploding behind her in a glorious flame as it silhouettes her staring at Hana with glaring glowing eyes.
The buffed demon only continues to unleash more orbs, hands raised to fire lasers, planning to knock her out the sky when she was too overwhelmed by her magic little missiles. Ice Queen continues to spin in the air, tricking the orbs to collide with one another as she tries to aim her hands at the floor. Immediately she starts spraying huge ice beams, letting them dance across the floor as she does huge circles around Hana.
The towering demon stares at the snow the attacks leave behind, and gazes as it starts to take humanoid forms. Snow creatures and warriors alike give a bone chilling screech as they are given life, before brainlessly charging towards Hana, making her groan in annoyance. She simply starts swatting them away, as her tendrils idly kept shooting out more homing magic orbs at Ice Queen, trying to figure out her game plan. Then an explosion happened to her right.
She glances at it, and discovers one of her orbs had struck a worthless minion instead of the infuriating royal, who smirks as she finally stops evading. With so many targets on the field, the homing attacks were getting confused, much to the chagrin of the Lady of the night-o-sphere as she growls.
Ice Queen raises her arms and slashes with them both, sending out a huge arc of ice magic that roars towards Hana, who was distracted by more ice minions swarming over her like a tsunami. The massive attack slams into the demon, cutting the tendrils on her back clean off, halting the constant barrage of homing magic. The hell spawn grimaces in pain, and snaps her eyes off the ice summons climbing all over her to the smug royal.
She was now continuing to spray even more minions out, letting them be a distraction as she plans on how to defeat the buffed demon with as little of a threat to the others. 'I need to get her to the surface. This chamber is too small to do any large spells and could possibly put the others in danger if I shake the place too much.' She looks up at rocks above her as Hana starts shredding her creations with ease, 'How do I get her up there? Ramming her through would only cause an earthquake…'
Hana roars in anger as her hands glow with magic, snapping Ice Queen out of her thoughts as she glared at her. The massive demon slams her green flaming hands on the ground, and massive cracks that glowed with her magic spread out from her, shooting towards the room centre. The flying royal goes to stop whatever she is doing, creating an orb and chucking it at the demon still overrun by her ice warriors. It floats above her and creates a massive snow cloud, causing her minions to rush off her as it rains down icicles the size of people, shredding her body.
She groans in pain but keeps the spell going, feeding it even more power as it finally reaches the centre of the chamber, causing the spell to rumble as ancient magic stirs. The massive demon immediately leaps out from under the cloud, pouncing on and killing some more ice minions before standing tall with a grin, her uncountable amount of injuries healing in only a couple of seconds.
The green cracks start to grow at the centre of the room, becoming a huge circle before filling in, becoming a puddle of flaming liquid. Ice Queen scowls at it as she prepares to start dodging some attacks, watching as the circle of magic expands and grows, slowly taking up half of the chamber. Her minions smartly decided to stay clear of the unknown spell as they continue to try and wail on Hana, who simply evades them with a grin, making Ice Queen's face twist in thought, 'Why isn't she just killing them?'
Then the ground shakes, making the royal snap her gaze back to the circle with a slight glare. Suddenly eight huge tentacles shoot out of it, arcing in from the edge inwards as a deep low rumbly roar comes from it, and a massive circular mouth pops in from the centre. Razor sharp teeth flex within it, before it lets out a huge roar, Ice Queen raising her eyebrows in shock, 'She summoned a Kraken!?'
Immediately its tendrils lash out at her, making her grunt as she tries to avoid its unsavoury grip, darting around in the air as two of the limbs try to catch her. The other six however go for her minions, doing massive swoops as they swiftly grab any of the pests for Hana. Then, they fling it towards its mouth, the maw opening wide to devour all the little creations of Ice Queen.
The Lady of the Night-o-sphere giggles at her pet, her tendrils re-growing on her back as she watches with glee at the royal darting in the air above her. Eventually one of the Kraken's tentacles wrap around her, but is instantly shredded by her swirling icicles, tearing off all its flesh to the bone, making it and the other one jerk back. Ice Queen immediately shoots away from it, analysing its huge form hidden under the pool of burning green liquid for a weakness, and unsurprisingly finds none, no chink in the armour anywhere.
She hears laughter and snaps to Hana, watching her walk towards a tentacle as it lowers itself for her, allowing her to step onto it. It lifts her to the height of the flying royal, who scowls at her as she beams back in response, "Like her? She is a good pet, an old friend of mine! She shares a special bond with me." She points at one of the four tendrils on her back, making Ice Queen glare even worse, 'So that's where the tentacles on her back came from.'
"So what? Is she your mummy? 'Cuz your face definitely shares the looks of a squid!" Ice Queen mocked as she creates two orbs in her hand and chucking them both at the Kraken's closest arms, letting them explode in a storm of ice shrapnel. Immediately the massive creature roars in pain and begins flinging its injured limbs in pain, trying to swat the flying threat from the sky. Hana simply jumps off her black platform, allowing it to join in on the fun of trying to kill the wizard.
Ice Queen weaves around the tentacles, avoiding them the best she can as she heads straight towards her target as ordered by her tiara. She shoots to the ground with a stomp, sending out a huge wave of ice towards the still demon, who barely leaps out of its way, getting her leg nicked as she oozes some black blood. She simply scoops some up on her finger, then flicks it away with a chuckle, what only gets louder as she watches Ice Queen leap backwards to avoid a tentacle.
"I forgot to mention, this bond with big Bess here gives more than the ability to summon her…" Her four tendrils shoot into the ground and pulse, as if pumping something into the ground for a couple of seconds. Ice Queen grows huge claws and immediately lunges at the still hell spawn, aiming straight for her heart. But then she gets blindsided by a huge tentacle and is sent flying, spinning through the air before she hits the ground hard.
She grunts in pain as she skids on the floor, her armour protecting her as her swirling icicles get stuck in the ground. She gets casted in a huge shadow, and she leaps forward in a panic, just barely missing as another tentacle comes to slam down on her. She growls in anger and snaps her hand over her shoulder, shooting out a stream of ice on the tendril before it could move away. It slams into and cover the massive pitch black tentacle, and makes it jolt its limb away to protect it. But it was too late, and it was completely covered in the royal's magic, frozen to the core in an instant.
It waves the numb limb around desperately, hoping to restore life to it somehow while it screams in agony. However it eventually slams its tentacle into the stone wall of the chamber, and shatters the frozen limb. It falls like glass, smashing into the ground and breaking even more as the limb crumbles to pieces, quickly becoming a cloud of ice fragments.
The royal stares at the other limbs as they all immediately aim towards her, making her growl, "Stop getting in the way of me getting Marshall!" The Kraken roars in anger, and sends all the tentacles to her way, making her leap into the air and dart away to dodge them all. They slam into where she stood and shakes the chamber violently, but she focuses back onto Hana for a second. She finds her grinning and surrounded by black shapes. She does a double take, and discovers they were her own minions, the ones devoured by the Kraken as they stare up at her stiffly, some twitching a little.
Hana grins as she points up at the royal, "Bring the bitch down!" Ice Queen hears a whoosh sound, and immediately flies straight up, just barely missing the tentacles as they attempt to swat her. She glares at her outnumbering foes, 'None get in my way! The others have to be safe by now!' Ice Queen has had enough, and goes for the kill, she is taking Hana to the surface, and she was going to slap her around her own domain.
She starts shooting around the chamber, dodging sporadically as both Hana and the Kraken try to bring her down. Hana starts doing small bursts of her laser, trying to predict the royal's next move while keeping her magic cost as low as possible. The unaging wizard smirks smugly as she spins around the magic attacks and dodges whacks from the Kraken as she aims her hands at the floor.
She immediately starts spraying more beams that sweep across an empty space on the floor, laying down snow that summons more of her minions. Hana huffs and keeps her tendrils lowered, 'I can't do those homing missiles while those guys are there to distract them!' She points harshly at them, fury making her voice come out as an enraged shout, "Minions! Kill them all!" With screams of demons, her black and twisted forms of the royal's summons charge at the opposing army, who all immediately rush to do a counter charge.
They smash together, parts going flying as they brutally ripped into each other, but their leaders didn't care, they were too busy trying to kill the other. Ice Queen focuses on the massive Kraken taking up the majority of the room, 'Nothing gets in my way!' She dives towards the maw, what opens wide to accept her, the remaining seven tentacles closing in behind her to push her in. She aims both hands at the mouth, and they glow with her iconic blue magic. A huge, jagged spike forms before her, several times bigger than her entire form, and promptly slams it into the maw of the beast.
It completely fills its mouth, shattering teeth as black blood splurts out and it releases a muffled roar of pain. The royal swiftly leaps off the spike, just as the tentacles descend upon it, the Kraken unable to halt its momentum in time. It slams the ice piercing its mouth even deeper inside, getting propelled by the force of seven huge masses, getting it lodged inside its own mouth.
The mouth of the beast was sealed, and it was in pain, its tentacles wiggling and slamming into things, making Ice Queen smirk, 'What you get for getting between me and my Marshall!' It flings a limb at her, making her sigh as she shoots up to easily avoid it, only for her to get clipped by a massive orb. Her armour gets singed as the massive green attack floats by her, attempting to home in the mad wizard. She spins and faces more sent to her by a grinning Hana, causing her to shoot through the air to get some space between her and their explosion radius.
However, another tentacle comes charging towards her, making her yell in anger as she slashes with her hand, sending out an arc of ice. It slices right through like it was nothing, severing the entire limb in half as the bisected remain drops into the green flaming liquid below, and causes the Kraken to struggle in agony again.
Ice Queen simply darts forward now that the annoyance was gone, flying by the flaying limb as the death orbs slowly followed her. She shoots towards a tentacle, grinning as they track her in a straight line, and swiftly causes her to dart behind the tentacle. It tries to grab her but she simply does spins around it whenever it tried, and watches with a huge smirk as the orbs slowly close in.
Just as they were about to strike the royal, she rockets away, yet the magic attacks still attempt the closest route. They collide with the rampaging limb of the Kraken, and promptly explode in a firework show of huge green balls of fire, tearing the tentacle in half. Ice Queen smirks as she makes Hana hurt her own pet, grinning as she watches the burnt limb drop to the fire below. It attempts to roar in pain at its betrayal, but instead gurgles on its own pitch black blood from the huge spike still pierced in its maw.
The royal scowls at the remaining five limbs, 'I'll deal with this thing for stopping me from beating the shit out of Hana.' She shoots forward to end her new targets, all of the remaining tentacles whipping at her desperately, trying to keep the terrifying royal away. Ice Queen grins sickly as she raises her hands and shoots an ice beam at the tentacle right in front of her, the huge beam slamming into it.
She immediately freezes a huge chunk the size of a house on the limb, causing it to grind to a halt as it attempts to bend the already dead limb. Ice Queen then creates a huge spike, so large her entire body can hide behind it as she rams into the tendril. It shatters like a pickaxe through normal ice would, the royal going straight through the limb as destroyed ice harmlessly bounce off her. She quickly melts her huge weapon, spinning to face the four remaining tentacles before shooting forward, choosing her next target just to her left.
She leaps onto the middle of a limb, grabbing it tight as it bends over on itself to grab her, squeezing hard in attempt to crush her. Then it suddenly gets enveloped in a massive white cloud, what quickly get filled with black blood as Ice Queen creates an icicle blizzard around her. The limb is simply liquidised as the royal grins in the middle of it all, then an explosion collides with her swam, making her frown.
Hana glares at Ice Queen as she releases an unrelenting amount of toxic green magic into the blizzard, her minions keeping the snow creatures off her. Her attacks obliterate the ice swirling around the royal, making Ice Queen growl in annoyance, and order the blizzard to stop. The icicles freeze up mid air, hovering completely still, before the royal points a single finger at the Lady of the night-o-sphere. Half of them spin and shoot towards her like a shotgun blast, making the massive demon lift her arms defensively as they slam into her.
She disappears in a massive cloud of dust thrown up by the attack, making Ice Queen grin as she shifts her glowing gaze to the last three remaining tentacles. They all try to slam on her in a triangle formation, but she simply boosts backwards, taking her blizzard with her. The massive limbs separate to do another attack, but Ice Queen halts one of them by sending the other half of her icicles at it, doing another shotgun blast. The tentacles is stuck at the base, and the bottom of the tentacle is deleted in a splat of black blood and a crash of icicles.
The royal glances at the two remaining tendrils, what hover back as the Kraken attempts to think of a way out of this. The royal gives it no time or mercy as she lunges at the one to her right, grinning as she lands at the base, just above the burning liquids below. The massive limb tries to shake her off, but the Ice Queen was determined as she grins madly, her hand touching the pitch black flesh.
Immediately ice slowly crept up its struggling form as the other tentacle goes to save it, but the royal repels it with suffering, shooting an icicle into the tip of the tendril and making it expand within its flesh. As it instinctively jolts back in pain and wave around in an attempts to flick the growing icicle out, the ice continues to slowly slither up the one Ice Queen was on. It stops struggling as it freezes to the core, cutting of supply to the limb as it flops dead, yet it continues to be frozen by the mad royal.
Finally her magic creeps over the last bit, completely freezing the massive tentacle as Ice Queen sighs at the bottom, and gives a mental command to her magic. A huge crack snaps through the tower of dead flesh what then lightning out into smaller one, the cracks meeting together. Then the huge tower of dead flesh crumbles, shattering into thousands of pieces as Ice Queen leaps off her horrifying work.
She glances at the other struggling limb as the icicle within its flesh has now grown to the point of splitting the tip, black blood oozing around it. The royal floats towards its struggling form, occasionally shooting out a splodge of ice magic to freeze the struggling limb. With every freeze it gets less room to wiggle, slowly becoming a straight tower of black tentacle as the royal floats to the tip of the spire. She calmly lands atop the still tendril, sitting directly on the still growing icicle as she looks down at it.
She lowers herself and gently touches her spell, ordering its growth to a halt as she smiles smugly at it. She then pours more magic into it, making its form shift as its sides spread out into petals, the massive icicle becoming a huge flower topping the stuck tentacle. Then she grins evilly, and orders a massive spike of ice to shoot down the last limb of the suffering Kraken, her magic piercing right through the black flesh.
It fills the entire centre of the tentacle, making it go stiff as a rock, before Ice Queen adds the final piece to her cruel spell. Ice spikes shoot out of the cylinder going through it, piercing out of the tendril randomly as blood pours out of the many holes now dotting its form.
The royal then instantly melts the spikey pillar from within the tentacle, letting it flop over dead as she jumps off it, flapping her eyebrows to float in the air. She glances at the Kraken, finding it sitting hopelessly and no longer a threat to her, 'I can't waste time killing it, I must beat this Hana bitch and get my Marshall!' With the tiara's madness taking over her mind, she snaps her head to the Lady of the Night-o-sphere, and finds her tearing what little remains of her ice summons.
With her helping out, her army of twisted creations stand victorious over the snow piles that was the royal's conjured army. Ice Queen simply shrugs and shoots towards them. Hana snaps her head up as she hears another thump, discovering the last tentacle of her old friend destroyed as it lays on the ground and pouring out blood. 'Ah great, that means she is now coming for me.' She turns her gaze upwards just in time to see the royal dive bombing her feet first, causing her to grab a few minions and hold them up as meat shields.
Ice Queen slams into the heart of her former army, sending out a huge wave of ice that washes out in a circle formation. The larger than people spikes shred all the twisted army, obliterating their bodies like they were nothing, and in a matter of seconds they were all gone. The one's Hana were holding as weak protection get decimated immediately, the massive spikes going through them and into Hana as she doubles over onto the spike from the injury it graciously gave her. Ice Queen then calls all the ice to her, making it line her path as she walks towards the downed demon with a huge grin.
She stands before the buffed hell spawn, who looks up at her in mild curiosity, not really bothered by the hole in her gut that was now rapidly beginning to heal. Ice Queen grins at her, "I told you, I'm taking Marshall from your shitty mother hands." She stomps again before her, and a massive spike shoots out from under Hana, sending her straight up as she is impaled and held high above the royal, "... And! So we can't bother my friends with earthquakes… we're taking this outside!" With that she orders the huge spike to melt away yet raises the hands at the same time, aiming them straight up as they glow with blue magic. She lines it up with the falling demon, and then fires a super huge ice beam, striking the demon perfectly. The force of the unending attack rockets Hana into the ceiling as an ice cube, then rams her through it, pushing through the ceiling and beyond with a massive explosion of force.
Such a power shakes the ground, causing hell for Finn and the others as they continue to desperately rush through the caves. They continue to follow their demon guide as it leads them some exit they don't know off, Finn periodically looking behind him to check up on everyone. Huntress simply gives him a small smile when he stares at her, helping at putting his nerves to rest as he focus back on looking ahead and dodging any rocks that try to squish him. Then they turn a corner, and his eyes lighten up. At the end of a very long ramped corridor sat a door, 'That's got to be an exit!'
With renewed strength he spins to rally everyone, just as a leader should, "We here! Come on!" Immediately they all push themselves to go that final bit with all their strength, making him grin, 'We made it! Now how do I help Ice Queen!?' Suddenly the ceiling cracks as a massive thump shakes everything, stumbling everyone as they grab the wall for support.
Finn stares up in worry as he watches the ceiling crack and groan, making him snap his head to the others, prioritising in getting them to safety first, "Move! Now! To the door!" Immediately they all scramble, Huntress instinctively reaching out and tugging Finn along, pulling him to safety with her. They all rush for the door, the ceiling rapidly decaying behind them as a few of the demons behind them get crushed under the boulders.
A deep rumble and roar echoes out behind them, and Finn glances behind them to investigate. There was a huge cloud rushing towards them as rocks poured from the ceiling, a full on cave in. He pales and pushes Huntress forward, giving her the Highest chance to survive as he can give, helping her with her life long goal of staying alive as long as possible. She instantly grabs him and yanked him close to her as they charge forward, the wizard preferring a death with him than a life without.
The door was right in front of them, and the leading demon reaches it first, immediately yanking on it to slam it open. But it doesn't budge, locked up tight after years of no use, making Finn panic and pull his sword off his back, making sure not to hurt Butterscotch still clinging onto him. But then a click happens, and the door suddenly swings open, making everyone grin as they rush for survival. The unknown person who opened the door peers at them as he holds it wide open.
It was the mysterious figure.
Before they could get a proper look at him he disappeared again, but they had other things on their panicking minds right now. Everyone leaps through the door, the last ones being Finn and Huntress as they tumble in just as a cloud of dust explodes out of the tunnel.
Everyone coughs and hags, Finn taking a peek at the door, finding it filled with rocks as the avalanche completely filled it in… with a demon's hand poking out of it. The swarm of demons only a meter behind him and Huntress were all dead. Shivering in discomfort at that thought, he quickly shakes it off and stands tall and proud to gaze at everyone, "We did it, we're back at the surface."
Huntress looks at him with worry, "And what about Ice Queen? Is she alright? We need to help her!" A massive explosion rocked the place, stumbling everyone again as Finn can't help but grin, taking it as a sign that those two were still fighting despite
"Something tells me she is doing just fine… after we free Marshall. We're currently in his tower without him knowing, we won't get a chance like this again. Then we will find her, because she is no joke, she can handle herself just fine as I believe in her."
I'm so sorry for the terrible fight scene, I hope it gets better in the next chapter since our fighting mothers will have more open space to fight in, their restrictions gone.
Heads up, work loads are increasing... Which means I might not be able to do weekly uploads anymore. I'll let you know how it goes, sorry if I disappoint anyone with this news.
Review response:
Eternal Violets, on FF, chapter 29:
Thank you! I'm glad you like the chapter, and I too am looking forward to the future lemon scenes.
The Book of Eli, on FF, chapter 32:
Yeah, these two are some of the biggest powerhouses of adventure time, they are no jokes. It already has a second ability, the power to absorb and reflect Hana's magic, but I think I can do something with the compass... Maybe lead him to things? But at the same time that rips off Pirates of the Caribbean and is a tad overpowered, removing all search and struggle to find a way or find something. Yeah, it's something that might be joked about for a while, "So what were you doing naked with Finn?" Huntress definitely cares for those she loves, and will protect them with all she got, and I can definitely see someone exploiting that. Cake is a thicc cat, and one everyone will cuddle with (Yes, that's me saying I will do a cuddling scene with a squishy Cake as someone falls asleep.)
Eternal Violets, on FF, chapter 30:
Very true, the night sword can indeed hurt Hana
Eternal Violets, on FF, chapter 32:
Heh, I'll try to make it as awesome as possible
FinalKingdomHearts, on FF, chapter 32:
Thanks for the small confidence boost!
