Triple Threat

The demons who were making their way behind the horde of monsters was surprised seeing 6 people killing all of the beasts in such a short time. Although they could do the same as just 3 of their race, it would take a long time to slowly kill one beast at a time as they were just lowly peasants relative to the demon world. Their bodies were stronger than steel and could not be harmed, but their fighting ability was almost nonexistent.

The beasts that they lead came from Troya were amassed easily enough with the stench of blood throughout the city and all they did was push them in the right direction. Taking their newfound power into consideration, their idea was that the demons themselves scared the beasts in the way that they wanted. The slight divine power radiating from them caused the beasts to move in the way that the demons wanted, even if it was only slightly.

After the clean up of the beasts, the two groups found themselves in a staring contest, waiting for someone to make the first move. One side was a bit wary of the other, while the other one was a bit afraid of their foe.

"You know what to expect now so don't hold back. Shaper, you're in charge of holding 2 of them off. The ugly one is mine." Rak said with a wide grin.

Before Larry could get out his question of "Which one is the ugly one?" a loud bang was heard. Close to the sound of a clap of thunder and a sonic boom together, Rak was gone from his position and the middle demon of the 3 was also gone. In its former spot was but a deep imprint of boot marks.

While the other two demons were wondering where their comrade and one of the enemies had gone, the others sprinted into action. Shaper quickly transformed from a mantis into a humanoid figure of a crocodile for more of a defensive measure to counter their brutish strength.

Gremlin spoke up betraying her quite loving attitude "I can hold the right one till he gets back, I might not look it, but I'm sturdier than the rest of you." she commented before heading in its direction.

"Are we really going to leave it to her?" Reaper questioned at their temporary leader.

"Let her have it, maybe we can see more into this mystery we have with us." Shaper responded before lunging full sprint into the left demon. Everyone else gave a quick nod at his order before following him into the fray.

Seeing that two of his enemies have disappeared to fight his friends, the left demon was a bit happy he could play with more enemies of his kind using his new power. Watching them come closer he started running at them himself rearing his arm back for a full punch.

Once he got into the range of Shaper who was in the front, a figure appeared behind him and slashed out with a red streak of light to his back, lurching him forward. After he was pushed off balance a meaty scaled fist met his head blowing him to the ground.

With a loud yell, the demon tried to get back up, but once he was on his feet he was met with a slam by a giant slab of metal by Face who hit him with everything he had from the charge. It was sent flying far back leaving a great distance between him and his companion.

The other demon went to help his friend, ignoring the petite girl heading his way, writing her off as unimportant. But before it could take a second step forward a chain was wrapped around its legs causing it to fall face first in the dirt.

With a hard tug of the chains, Gremlin sent the demon in her grasp over her head smashing face-first into the ground again leaving it stunned wondering how such a small human could be so strong. The demon looked on to find her coming ever closer with her small scythe spinning in her hand.

While the rest of the group was dealing with their own demons Rak was found a few hundred meters away with his own target. The demon who was just seconds ago standing within his group was shoved to the ground, trying to understand what was going on as it looked up at the only other person with it. Rak with his body clad in lightning from head-to-toe gave off a bright glow causing the demon to not be able to look directly at him.

"Let us start with just 3 shall we?" Rak said as he removed 3 of the blue needles from his belt and grasped them tightly in his hand. After he grasped all 3 needles firmly in his hand the glow around him noticeably darkened as a shining blue sword grew ever longer in his hand giving even the demon a subtle sense of dread he never knew.
