the fight against Lisa's dad(3)

The battlefield was in ruins. The once-solid ground had been shattered, leaving behind craters and cracks filled with abyssal energy that pulsed like open wounds. The air was thick with the remnants of power, lingering like the ghosts of previous clashes.

Lisa's father stood in the center of the destruction, his form shrouded in pure darkness. His eyes glowed with an unnatural intensity, and the abyss coiled around him like a living entity, hungering for more.

Lisa's Father:

"I've had enough of your defiance."

His voice carried the weight of finality. The shadows surrounding him surged violently, distorting the very space around them.

Liam, Jack, Amelia, and Luna stood together, battered but unbroken. Their breathing was ragged, their bodies screaming in protest, yet their resolve remained unshaken.

Liam clenched his fists. Sparks of golden lightning arced around him, dancing like vengeful spirits.

Liam:

"We're not done yet."

Jack wiped the blood from his lip, his eyes narrowing.

Jack:

"Yeah. If you're going all out, then so are we."

Amelia steadied her staff, the golden radiance intensifying until it illuminated the battlefield.

Amelia:

"This ends now."

Luna took a deep breath, the water at her feet rising, forming a swirling maelstrom.

Luna:

"We won't let you consume everything in darkness!"

Lisa's Father chuckled darkly.

Lisa's Father:

"Then come, children of light. Let me see the extent of your futile resistance."

The abyss exploded outward, black tendrils stretching toward them like the hands of death itself.

And then—

A burst of power erupted from each of them.

Lightning roared, water surged, and light burned through the abyssal void.

Liam's body crackled with electricity as his aura surged. His pupils glowed a fierce white, and arcs of lightning flickered wildly across his skin. His transformation activated—a second stage of his magic that turned his body into pure energy. His veins pulsed with blue current, his hair rising with the static charge.

Liam:

"Thunder Emperor Mode...!"

Jack's transformation followed. His body became wreathed in blue lightning, his muscles coiling with raw power. The electricity didn't just surround him—it became an extension of his being. Sparks danced across his fingers, his entire form a conduit of destruction.

Jack:

"Storm Breaker Mode!"

Amelia lifted her staff high, the light enveloping her in a celestial glow. Her skin shimmered with divine energy, and wings of pure radiance formed behind her. Her golden robes transformed into armor-like constructs of light, each layer pulsing with divine magic.

Amelia:

"Divine Ascension!"

Luna, standing at the center of a growing tide, let the water flow around her. Her eyes became an oceanic blue, glowing with untamed force. Her body seemed to merge with the water, her form both solid and fluid, her magic now limitless.

Luna:

"Abyssal Tide Mode!"

Lisa's Father sneered.

Lisa's Father:

"Interesting... but it's still meaningless."

The abyss erupted toward them, a tidal wave of pure darkness.

Liam, Jack, Amelia, and Luna moved as one.

Jack was the first to strike. He vanished in a crackle of lightning, reappearing above Lisa's father in an instant.

Jack:

"Lightning Fist—Overdrive!"

He drove his fist into Lisa's father's chest, sending shockwaves of electricity rippling through his form. But the abyss retaliated, black tendrils lashing out at Jack.

Luna countered instantly.

Luna:

"Tsunami Break!"

A massive surge of water crashed down, intercepting the abyssal tendrils and washing them away.

Amelia followed up, raising her staff.

Amelia:

"Divine Spear of Judgment!"

A colossal spear of light formed in the sky before plummeting down, striking Lisa's father with a deafening explosion. The abyss around him sizzled and burned, forced to retreat from the purity of the attack.

Lisa's Father snarled, his expression finally shifting into something other than arrogance.

Lisa's Father:

"You… damn… pests!"

He unleashed a burst of abyssal energy, creating a dome of pure darkness that swallowed the battlefield. For a moment, everything was silent.

And then—

Lightning cut through the darkness.

Liam, now a living embodiment of electricity, shot forward like a bolt of divine wrath.

Liam:

"I see through your abyss."

Lisa's father barely had time to react before Liam's blade, now pulsing with the full might of his power, cut through the shadows and into his side.

Lisa's Father:

"Gah—!"

He staggered, black blood spilling from the wound. The abyss recoiled, weakened for the first time.

Jack grinned.

Jack:

"He's open!"

Luna summoned a whirlpool beneath him, trapping him in place. Amelia raised her staff once more, golden symbols forming around her.

Amelia:

"Holy Chains—Seal!"

Golden chains wrapped around Lisa's father, restricting his movements.

Lisa's Father:

"NO—!"

And then—Liam moved in for the final blow.

Liam stood before the bound Lisa's father, his golden lightning burning brighter than ever. He could feel it—the weight of the past, the echoes of a life once lived.

His grip on his sword tightened.

Liam:

"You stole from me in my past life. You took away my people, my future, and everything I once held dear."

Lisa's Father snarled.

Lisa's Father:

"You are nothing but a boy playing at vengeance!"

Liam's eyes flashed with determination.

Liam:

"Maybe. But that doesn't change what comes next."

Lisa's Father struggled, the abyss flaring wildly—but it was too late.

Liam raised his blade.

Liam:

"I wanted to make you pay for my past life, and now, I will finally do it."

The lightning around him intensified, forming a colossal spear of pure destruction.

Liam:

"Goodbye. I hope you burn in hell."

With a final swing, Liam struck.

The battlefield was engulfed in blinding golden light.

Lisa's Father let out a final, agonized scream as the abyss shattered, consumed by Liam's divine lightning. His form disintegrated, the shadows dispersing into nothingness.

And then—silence.

The battle was over.

Liam collapsed to his knees. The power that had surged through him moments ago faded, leaving behind only exhaustion.

Jack groaned, lying flat on his back.

Jack:

"Remind me never to fight an abyssal monster again."

Luna sat down, barely able to keep herself upright.

Luna:

"That was… too close."

Amelia exhaled, gripping her staff tightly.

Amelia:

"But we won."

Liam stared at the spot where Lisa's father had once stood. The man who had haunted his past life—gone.

He let out a breath he hadn't realized he was holding.

Liam:

"Finally, Dakota… I have repaid for my sins. Now I can rest."

His vision blurred. The last thing he saw before passing out was the sky above—clear of shadows for the first time.
