WAR AND DISASTERS

Andy's attention didn't left Aladin and as she chants, some kind of scary shadows came out of the mirror as they drop down weakly. Amaya wanted to run due to fear but she was kept steady when Andy's hands touched her. Mr Tan on the other side was regaining his conscious. He weakly opened his tiny eyes and helped himself up but when he was about to stand, he found himself falling back alone. He immediately noticed the ritual she was making, was to use his body to awake her husband and with the shadows that were on the floor. He thought for an idea for a moment then peeked at Alex where he was hiding to. When there eyes met, he communicated with him using mind links and thanks to them it was easy to understand each other. He crawled slowly moving to where the sword was placed but a loud thunder strike the fire sending him backwards. The fire burned immediately lightening where they were all hiding but since she was too engrossed in her rituals, giving them her attention was hard due to lack of time. The Black moon doesn't stay for long. The sky had turned purely red, as the shape of a full moon starts to appear as soon as the wind started blowing. Thunder too was angrily roaring and it gave them a hard time to get on their plan. Alex understood his assignment and he took the first step moving near the mirror as per the old man's instructions. The mirror should not face her since the shadows stepping out are her comrades and they'll cause chaos once brought back to life. He prayed for himself and the rest when he remembered all the hardship they've gone through and his sister's sudden death really ripped his soul deeply. A mood of melancholy descended on him when he recalled Luca's words and for a second, he thought about him for the last time. At the back of his head, there was no enough time to think all about that, he quickly shoved away all his thoughts and directed his attention to the woman wakening devils. The Black Moon wasn't fully formed so to his luck, there was still time to do his task. He started humming one of the Vonnol Greatest used song called Argn, the song that can stop the rituals of a witch to take place and by time to time, his mellifluous voice echoed everywhere inorder to force the Black Moon to stop forming into a circle. Mellow music and the thunder lightenings, helped to create the easy way of stopping the formation but with Aladin's power, he was pushed on one of the huge trees when she came to realize that her powers were escaping away from her.

' Sia° Shel°ler° erv° cum° tu°r m°•y bus°ner•' she angrily thundered her eyes reddening like the sky. Her hair flopped as the wind blows her evil eyes watching him from where he had just fallen. To distract him, Alex thought of an idea just to buy time and it somehow worked.

' Wa°ter° de ga°ner?' Su° fu° wa°ter°?' he shouted wiping his already cut lip.'

' Po°wa•res. For°ev°.'

' Nor°. That can't happen. Just quit it and leave the world alone. You'll be happy at last. '

' Hap•er? i°u? Nor°. Ev°r. My husband needs to be awakened. I loved him and l can't break the vows that we made to each other. ' she said almost in tears as Alex walks more closer to her.'

' Sia° cu• lu•erk ou°r ther° husb°ndry•. Der° Ma°•y.'

' Ma°•y? Nor°. I just want him back. Nobody else.'

' What Will you gain for that? '

' Him and allies. Power also I'll gain, Haahh! Even you now can't stop me.'

When the fifth whistle came again, Alex new now the Black Moon was fully formed and he raised his head looking at it. Suddenly, the ground shook and the trees that were standing, they all droop down as if bowing at someone only to realize how bright the Black Moon has changed into than the other moons he has ever come across with. He blankly blinked then smiled staring at her, she was now sacrificing her blood by pouring it in the fire before smearing it on the mirror. He wasn't ready to give up this early so when she took Mr Tan's arm for a blood sacrifice again, he jumped over the fire falling on her making them to fall down hardly. The fight between them begun and this time, it was dangerous unlike the first one but before he could make another quick move, a punch landed on his face sending him to the ground but him too didn't let go of her. He flipped around kicking her uncountless times. Mr Tan helped himself up and since Andy can't move near the fire, he took the sword and threw it to him then made the mirror to face away from the fire. She immediately screamed touching her head painfully trying to reach out the mirror the moment it was turned.

' Return the mirror back to the fire, now.' her words echoed loudly but no one moved. She had to pick herself on the floor hastily before Alex could attack again going after the mirror, but the old man pushed it far beyond her reach.'

' You'll never get what you want witch, your time is up. Let us see who wins this time.' he murmured smiling.'

' You traitor. Since you're too clever, then your time is up, let us meet in hell.' she said her left leg kicking his stomach spurting out blood instantly.'

' Hahh! Even if you finish me, one thing am sure of, is that we'll never go same ways. We'll part in between.'

' Fine, then let it be there war. Let me see if you'll help him.' she threatened moving to where Andy was standing ready to strike after the whistle. She threw him out of the circle and snatched the Sword immediately he let go of it wanting to slaughter Amaya who as soon as the Sword was raised before her, she jumped turning her hands getting hold of the sword then with just one strike, the whistle blew as the Sword pieces through her cutting her into pieces, then within seconds, the silence covered the forest. She didn't understood how she made such a great move and still grounded from where she was standing, Aladin started reforming again. The body parts that were cut entwined together surprising everybody and she knew, she was going to die, right this moment if she doesn't move.

' Hahh! Hahhh! Even the Great Ancient Sword can't kill me, will it be you little tiny fragile human being? What exactly do you have human? '

' What.... Wha.....t t....h... the hell a....a...are you? ' she stammered moving backwards. The Sword that she was holding, dropped down due to how terrified she was and the thing made Alah happy. She left her as soon as she knew time for the Black Moon to disappear was almost over. She gathered herself then increased the lenght of the fire as she chants in gibberish. Alex quickly moved, then started putting off the fire as on the other side, Lyn kept on reminding them that time is kicking.

' ARSHWISKEY!!!!' she shouted this time not sparing him. She jumped on him again but she made an easy way for Mr Tan to grab the sword and directed Andy to get ready to strike the mirror since the Black Moon's time was getting over. Alex was about to be thrown into the fire but he turned pinning her down using his full strength as the mirror itself starts to shake continuously. Unknown to them, it moved running away from the fireplace when the fire's length reduced into a small size, the thing that startled Alex himself and with the rest. His tight grip loosen, and it was now his turn to be pinned down. She carried him up to the extend, no strong woman can carry a man in that way hoping to burn her alive but when she was about to throw him, Someone jumped on her ferociously not giving her time to attack as they all fall inside the burning fire while on the other side, when the last whistle was blown, Andy stabbed the mirror right on the spot then jumped out of the circle, as the mirror shutters into pieces then disappeared from nowhere. The sky as soon as the Black Moon disappeared, it immediately lightened, bringing another bright day. What a hard time they had faced.
