"I am sorry, my queen I can't help you with that. Luis is stronger than me. I can't compete with him. If you try to fight for Ralph, he will know your secret, and try not to think Luis is staring at you. He can read your mind." Medusa stated.
Lucinda was staring at Luis, who had an evil grin on his face, when she noticed a cup flying towards him. It was as if someone was handing the cup to him as he took it and started drinking it.
She narrowed her eyes at him. She was convinced that he was the one that sent the ghost to trouble them.
"I have no choice but to leave." Lucinda muttered.
"You can't go. Ralph will get furious that you didn't stand by him in a tough time like this. You can try to fight the demons for him like you have been doing before. You are the queen. They will respect you if you ask them to stand back." Medusa muttered.
"I can't. Ralph will know that I am a demon." Lucinda muttered as the demons all joined together and kicked Ralph in the stomach. He flew and landed in front of them, and gave Lucinda a weak smile with blood coming out of his mouth.
"Are you okay?" Lucinda asked as she squatted at his level, touching his face.
"I am fine, just have some internal injuries." He replied.
"It will heal, right?" She inquired.
"Of course." He muttered as he got up on his feet and sighted his sword in a demon's hand.
"Take, use mine." Lucinda muttered, putting the sword in his hand.
"Ahh!!" Ralph yelled as he started running towards the demons, dragging his sword on the floor with his eyes never leaving the one with the sapphire.
He pounced on the demon with the sapphire and split him in half. The demon fell to the ground, and his body faded away. Ralph knew that he was going to regenerate.
When he caught the sapphire, he wanted to put it in his pocket when the three-headed dog pounced on him. Ralph was laying on the ground with the dog on top of him as they used their paws to break the sapphire in his hand.
"Arrgh!!" As the dogs tried to eat him, he grunted in pain as they opened their mouths, exposing their razor-sharp teeth.
He struggled to lift his sword as Lucinda came into the picture and pushed the dog away from him.
The dogs fell to the ground and started barking continuously as they got up, immediately ready to devour the person that pushed them, and they realized it was Lucinda.
They pulled back immediately and ran away. Lucinda gave Ralph a hand and helped him up.
"What is the Queen doing?" One of the demons inquired.
"I don't know, she is helping that human." Another one added.
"I don't think she is our queen; she must be a shape-shifter." A demon stated grunting as they all started running to Lucinda and Ralph.
