START FIGHTING

"What do you see there Eun-Woo? No sign of target here."

Ray asks Eun-Woo about the situation. He can combine his wind and sound power together, to communicate two-way with another wind user. For now, he and Ethan was observing the area they had once get attacked by those beasts but there was no sign of any of them at the time.

While, team two, consisting of Eun-Woo, Leo and Syaoran enters the forest in another path, which a little far from them.

"Target also not yet showing up here." Eun-Woo is answering.

Hearing that, Leo uses the power of the earth to climb the tallest tree in the area trying to observe better.

"Earth power. Ascend!" With that, the bark of the tree kept changing as if a small ladder allowed him to climb with ease.

He then jumped from one branch to another without making any sound or even making the tree swaying. While Eun-Woo and Syaoran just follow from below. Beware of all possibilities.

After a few miles. Leo stopped. He seem to be concentrated on his observation at the time. After confirming, quickly he came down from the tree and reported what he saw.

"I didn't see the main target but hundred of fire ant armies is ahead." He said in whispering.

"Any spider or other animal?" Syaoran asks to confirm.

"For now it just the fire ants. And I'm not going to lie that I hope it just that."

"You heard that Ray?" Eun-Woo asks. Ray can hear all of them, but only Eun-Woo can hear him right now.

Just as Ray was about to reply that they were going to change areas suddenly there was the sound of broken twigs there.

"Are you doing that?" He asks Ethan who turned away from him.

"Doing what?" Ethan doesn't understand as Ray suddenly talking to him.

"The sound just now."

Ethan frowned. He had not heard any sound at all except the sound of insects since being there. The normal insect of course.

"I didn't hear anything." Ethan said, at once confirming that he is not the one that making the sound.

At that time, the sound of dragging and broken tree twigs increased. Even making Ethan feel a little surprised by that as he can hear the sound very well, even without power like Ray. It must be because the 'thing', now near to where they are.

Ray and Ethan now looked at each other. As if telling each other to be prepared. They are holding their breaths now. Nervously waiting. Only God knows how their hearts are also beating faster as they wait for the enemy to show itself.

The longer, the closer. They even hear a loud sigh every time the 'thing' moves now. Hopefully what they thought it is, is not that.

One second... Two second...

Ray and Ethan now swallowed their saliva. Looking at the giant beast in front of them now.

"The main target is here." Ray confirms to Eun-Woo in a whisper.

Eun-Woo's eyes looked angry now after hearing that news. Why didn't they think that it might have happened? It seems that they need to hone themselves in making strategies after this. He even self note to make Plan B until Z after this experience.

But, without hesitation, Eun-Woo continues to devise new strategies. He knows, even if they have to change plans for many times, they can win as long as they work hard and stay focused.

"Syaoran, bring the anesthetic and tranquillizer darts that Jieun give us before and go as fast as you could to team 1. Main target is there." Eun-Woo directed.

With that Leo handed the medicated weapon to Syaoran.

"Remember, the red 5 darts is aesthetic, the other ten in black is tranquillizer." Leo reminded.

"You take one each of that. I'm not that good of throwing. If anything, comes to us with those two. I have no doubt that both of you can handle things here smoothly." Syoaran said while asking for favors. Leo just oblige.

"Watch out!" Eun-Woo suddenly screams a warning.

At the time, the queen of the fire ants who have wings flown over and almost hit them with its big body. The three of them luckily fast enough to jump away from the enemy.

"Sandbox!"

Leo is calling up his earthly power now to steal time. Enough for Syaoran to escape there. Now, in front, it looks like a big block of sand is holding the enemy. Making the enemy cannot come forward to attack them. But this defense cannot stay for long.

"Go now!" Eun-Woo tells Syaoran before their defenses falter. It will be worse if all the colonies of fire ants are aware of their presence.

With that, Syaoran is running as fast as he can to reach Ray and Ethan area.

"No you don't." Eun-Woo realizes the fire ant already escape the block and try to fly towards Syaoran who is running. He is now making his move.

"Windstorm!"

Eun-Woo created a strong blue wind making the fire ant face a difficulty to flying well. And it turns out that the move pays off when the fire ant is now changing its way.

"Eun-Woo, they are coming!" Leo screams informing his partner now.

The fire ants in the ground now started to realize their presence in there. Also, looking at them, attacking their queen must be making all the group now furious. All marching towards Leo and Eun-Woo in incredibly fast paced.

"Move! Don't let them come into this direction." Eun-Woo said while running to the other paths, follow by Leo. Making the fire ants army following them after. They strive not to be separate. Because it is difficult to control everything, if that hundreds of the fire ants focus is divided into two directions. While, only the two of them were there.

While running, Eun-Woo was a little relieved when his eyes no longer saw Syaoran's back. Indicates the man is already far from there.

Meanwhile,

Ray and Ethan were still stiff where they stood.

Both of them know, the beast will not attack if they are not giving its the threatening vibe. But, with the stone, they didn't know if the beast will change its natural behavior.

They just pay attention to it now. The Komodo Dragon also seems to find them interesting. His nose seemed to try to smell them from a distance. There even a small smoke can be seen out from its nose when the beast exhale.

Suddenly, there are some changes in the eyes of the beast. Both of them are aware of that.

"Kharrrrrrrrrrr!"

A kind of 'hissing' threatening sound that the Komodo Dragon always made serves as a warning to their same kind before fighting is heard there.

"Get ready." Ethan said to Ray as a warning. He has already researched a lot about the beast, so he knows that at any time now they will get attacked.

After he said that, the Komodo Dragon now jumped from its place to where Ethan and Ray stood. It's a long jump when seen with the naked eye. About in 100 meters. Making both Ethan and Ray shocked by that.

"Telekinesis!"

Unprepared for that, Ethan in fast using his psychic power to stop the movement. The beast is now only a few inches from them. Clearly showing the jump is fast.

But it turns out that the beast is strong enough to even move while Ethan stopping its movement. He then, tossed the beast in the other direction just before the beast managed to break his attack.

"I never knew Komodo Dragon could jump!" Ray said out of nowhere.

"I don't know about that too." Ethan honestly admitted. Meaning that it is not the Komodo Dragon normally does in its real habit.

With a throw from Ethan, the Komodo Dragon fell down to the ground, making the space a bit dusty because of his giant body impact. But, it has no effect to the beast at all. Quickly he got up again and ran towards them.

"Crosswinds!"

Not waiting long, Ray uses his wind power to the beast. Now, the beast is being attacked by the strong wind in all directions. Left-Right-Front-Back. Just like being punched repeatedly.

The beast's body now cannot still and drift here and there by the effect. Finally the beast fell again to the ground, exposing it's abdomen.

"The stone!" Ethan told Ray about what he saw just now.

The stone is right on the beast's stomach. Sparkling. Right in the center.

But at that moment, the ground began to shake violently, making Ethan and Ray fall and sit on the ground because they were unable to balance themselves.

At the chaotic moment, the Komodo Dragon out of nowhere comes close to Ethan, right in front of him. The Komodo Dragon, now, opened his mouth wide as if trying to swallow its enemy while the ground still furiously shaking.

Ethan, as he struggles with the shaking ground, cannot do anything in fast. He can feel the blood drain from his face, as he already saw the beast uvula which felt so close. He really thought that he will be getting eaten by the beast.

"Ethan!" Ray could only scream.
