Dark Magus Returns



720 Lasting 20 Seconds

It was a hard task and a tall order for the attacking group, to go up against Murkel. They had been injured and been fighting for a while now, before with Amir, Dame and Alba they had managed to do something.

However, the Murkel they were fighting against now, and the Murkel they were fighting against before, it was a different picture.

"We fight!" Tilon said, seeing the hesitation on the others' faces. "20 seconds, that's all he asked for so we fight!"

Tilon led the charge, not being as hurt as the others in the group and feeling slightly guilty for reflecting the attack from before. With the shield though he was confident as well.

"I've got your back!" Alba called out as she walked slightly behind him.

Dame with his gauntlet hands started to throw them through the air and was aiming strikes at Murkel. He swirled his hands in the air, and the Qi attacks had just entered there instead.

"We don't have the entirety of the Crimson Clan, Reno, Froma and a few others are still far too hurt, but we need to just make do with what we have!" Alba said as she sped up, a red stream of Qi flowing behind her, and slid across the floor.

"I'm going to believe in you Raze, you said to hold him off for 20 seconds, I'm going to believe you're going to be able to end the fight then, so I will burn every bit of my Qi."

Alba continued to just skid across the floor and the visual red Qi behind her was getting stronger and stronger and she was picking up speed. Until, like a burning arrow, she went right through where Murkel was.

The floor behind Murkel was completely destroyed, the tiles torn apart seeing the harder concrete underneath it, and Alba had stopped sliding just shy of the arena wall behind him.

She stood there with her swords crossed, and coughed, blood slightly dripping out of her mouth.

"I've done what I can, that guy is a little too strong... it seems he still managed to block that and hit me back." Alba then turned around and placed her swords away.

Although she had been hit, and had exhausted her Qi, she was still able to stand. She knew she was practically out of the fight, but she had reserved just enough energy to see the outcome of the whole thing.

Taking such a big part in it all, she wanted to see Murkel fall. Just as it looked like she was about to trip, Rayna had caught her.

"And why aren't you taking part in this?" Alba said.

"Because, I have a feeling that Raze might exhaust himself in all of this, all of you guys are, and there needs to be one of us that will carry you all back." Rayna answered.

Charging ahead Tilon was now there, and Murkel had learned not to hit the shield twice now, Instead, he went to kick Tilon on the side.

Tilon quickly raised his shield as he kept it close and tight to him, but there was no impact, Murkel was able to safely pull his leg back. The moment he did, he could see six arms going

ahead ready to punch him.

Quickly, Murkel circled an area with his black Qi, the attacks were drawn away, and he then grabbed the center of Dame's shirt, and threw him to the other side of him where Amir was. Before completely throwing him, Murkel had then delivered a kick right in Dame's stomach, and sent him flying back right into Amir's axe-like arm. The axe had pierced the back of Dame causing him to bleed and both of them to topple in front of each other.

"Your shield, it's extremely annoying!" Murkel punched it twice, two short bursts that hit the shield, and Tilon noticed something odd. The energy that was felt obtained from the shield was incredibly weak.

Murkel continued to punch and kick the shield, and Tilon was able to keep up with the attack. In his hands, the shield was weightless after all.

'Come on guys, while I'm blocking these attacks, someone has to do something!' 'Tilon thought. He was getting worried why the shield wasn't storing as much energy as before.

That's when Tilon thought about it, was there even anyone left that could help to fight? Bargo had been extremely hurt by Gavin, so he had stayed up in the stands, only he had jumped down. Everyone else was seemingly out for the count, there were the students, but they were looking at the distance too weak to do anything as well.

In this panic, Tilon activated the sharp edge and swung his shield sideways to try to hit Murkel, but it didn't land at all, as Murkel had moved with ease and now had come in close next to Tilon. "I'll break that shield from your hands!" Murkel stated as he lifted his hand and slammed it down. Just as Murkel said, a cracking noise was heard as Tilon's arm had snapped.

Murkel was going for another hit, before Qi blasts had hit him in the side of the face. Tilon was still holding onto the shield tightly, and even with a broken arm forced himself to pull it back.

Murkel got out of the way, and could see the hits had come from Dame, who was no longer in his transformed Hybrid state. They had all pushed themselves too far. Even Amir, although standing on his legs, he too could no longer transform.

In truth, they were already at the end of their fight a long time ago, and they had only pushed themselves that bit further because it was an order from Raze. They all thought that if they just got through this, then it would all be for the sake of victory.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"This is useless, and the end." Murkel claimed, that was until he could see the ground was shaking, and he could feel it, a build-up of Qi, like a strong powerful volcano ready to erupt, coming from one individual in particular.

"What... are you doing?" Murkel asked, looking in Raze's direction.
