"This better work…she closed her eyes and began to chant: "I COMMAND THE HEAVENS TO RAIN DOWN AND LET THE WATERS WASH AWAY ALL WHO STAND IN MY WAY!!!…YOU ARE THE ELEMENT OF LIFE, AND I SHALL USE YOU TO BRING FORTH A MIGHTY STORM!!!!, MYSTIC ARTS WATER STYLE....NOAH'S ETERNAL RAIN!!!!, out of the north the clouds began to form and the sound of the wind gave the signal of kana's spell, the city was covered in darkness as the rain began to pour, the fire began evaporating.
as the fire started to decent lily and kaori used there speed and broke into the building, the fire was really intense and the people were screaming for help, lily entered a room and reached for a family who was trapped on the living room coughing, she grabbed the children first and brought them outside then ran back inside and grabbed the parents, kaori using her shadow she entered another room that had two elderly people in their bedroom, she grabbed the bed and with her shadow magic she took them outside, they kept pulling people out for a couple of minutes, kana noticed the the building started to shake.
"Um guys you need to hurry up this thing it's about to collapse".
Kaori looked at lily and said: "you heard that lily".
"Yeah let's hurry and see if anyone is still inside".
Both of them checked one last time and got outside.
"We ran through the whole area and there's no one else".
"Yean i think we got them all" kaori said smiling.
The building began to shake more violently.
"Whoa…what's going on!!?". Kana said losing her balance.
Lily opened her eyes looking at the building and yelled: "IT'S ABOUT TO FALL!!!".
"If we don't move this people out of here it will fall on them!". Yui said worried.
Kaori shouted: "EVERYONE GET OUT OF THE WAY!!!!" , some people got out and ran but others couldn't move due to their injuries.
Kana jumped away as the building started to fall slowly, "oh no it's too late".
Cassie covered her mouth and whispered: "…no, please…not like this…"
Launching forward braking the floor underneath her, niko sprinted holding her giant mallet.
Hiro saw niko passing him and yelled: "niko stop what are you doing!!!".
Niko grasp her hammer and jumped to it, she gave momo the signal: "MOMO NOW!!!.
Momo closed her eyes and cast a wind spell that pushed niko to the building, she also chant a spell.
"FROM THE BIRTH OF STONE…TO THE END OF EMPIRES…

Niko swing her mallet with full strength,The force of the impact was so powerful that made the building fall to the other side far away from the people, the rain had stop falling as the sky cleared up…the building had collapsed away from all of the them, all of the people opened their eyes and saw that they were safe so they started clapping and crying.
The Firefighter didn't know what happened and walk to Hiro and Cassie: "what…what just happened!?".
Hiro thinking of an excuse.
Cassie stepped in and said: "i guess that luck was on ourside hehehe".
The Firefighter kept mumbling: "but the rain and the falling building and…how did all of those people got out in time!?".
Cassie cut him off and said: "maybe you should go back to your teammates and check if all of those peoples need assistance".
"You're right", he pointed at his team and gave the comand: "let's make sure that this people get the medical attention they need!!" All of them nodded and ran to treat the wounded.
And old lady walk to lily and kaori thanking them but also told them that she saw what really happened but she promised that she wouldn't tell anyone.
Lily and kaori felt a relief and thanked the old lady,All of them left the scene,they got to a safe distance.
Hiro stepped forward and said: "good job you guys you were amazing", they all smile proudly.
Cassie looked around and ask: "where is niko?".
Niko came out of an ally coverd in dust coughing: "i'm here.."
Hiro ask confused: "what happened to you?".
"Oh I don't know, maybe i ran into a falling building and smashed into it!!".
Cassie helped niko clean up and said: "well that was very brave of you, and thanks to what you've done all of those people are safe".
"Yeah yeah can we go now?".
They left the scene, a few blocks away they managed to catch the bus witch it was heading the way they were going, as the bus made a turn it stopped because of a police blockade, the girls and Hiro got out and walk to the scene,all of them saw the policeman pointing their guns forward to a couple of robbers who were on a jewelry store.
Officer Dakota spoke through a megaphone: "this is the police force, we order you to drop your weapons and put your hands behind your head!!".
The Thief replied: "we are not talking any orders from nobody, we have a man hostage so you better do as we say or the man gets it!!"...the police officer didn't make any moves, "now listen up my crew will be arriving at any moment now and we are taking the jewels, if anyone tries anything funny this man will pay the consequences…understand!!".
Officer Dakota looked at her team and said: "everyone stand down..look we dont care about the jewels you can go but leave that poor man go he has nothing do to with this".
"Nice try lady", the van arrived,he enters and pushed the man aside, his partner began to drive.
Dakota took the opportunity and jumped on top of the van as they run drove off, the Thief noticed that she was on top so they began to drive very fast so that she could fall, one of them took a hard curve making her lose her grip, she about to fall when kana took her hand and save her.
"You ok?".
Dakota oppend her eyes and saw that kana saved her.
Kana pulled her up and said: "don't worry, you're safe now.."
"Who are you?".
The thief noticed that Dakota didn't fall down and said: "damn it, she's still on too of the van."
The driver replied: "don't worry she won't stay for long…".he took an aggressive turn and than he stepped on the gas.
"Those damn morons are going to kill someone if they keep driving like this!!! Said Dakota holding on.
As they continue to drive straight niko walk into the middle of the street dragging her hammer looking annoyed.
"Oh crap there's someone in the middle of the road!!!!." The thief said to the driver.
"Well she better move because i'm not stopping!!!" He stepped on the gas.
Dakota noticed that niko was not moving and told kana: "their going to hit her!!!".
"I wouldn't worry about her trust me" she looked at kana with a confused look on her face.
As they got closer kana grab Dakota and jumped away, niko grasp her hammer adjusted her foot and got into position, the van got close to her and she swung her hammer hitting the front of the van so hard that the 2 thief got out of the it from the front windows, as the van got wrecked both of them landed on the ground in front of niko who who had a menacing look,her eyes began to glow orange and her teeth began to sharpen.
Niko took a step braking the ground and said: "i am going to make the both of you regret ever waking out of bed and cause all of this shit…"
Boht of the thief began to shake and hug each other.
"I should make the both of you pay for what you did…and I think i know how", she showed them her sharp fangs.
"Wha….what the hell are you!!??".
"…I'm your worse nightmare…now bed for your forgiveness…"
"Ok ok we're sorry…we promise to never do this again we swear!!!!".
Niko began to growl and said: "not good enough". She launched forward witha predatory look on her face and both of them screamed out loud. Dakota got to where the thief were and saw that they were spaced out mumbling.
dakota was confused and ask: "what just happened!!?". she looked around for kana who had left with niko, "where did they go!."
The scene changes back to them running to the store.
"We're almost there look!! Cassie shouted as the store was just right across the street.

Cassie looks at niko and says: "ok niko we've made it, now let's go inside and.."the owner put a sing in the door that said that the store closed.
They all looked at the door and they were disappointed that they didn't make it in time, niko sat on the ground in disbelief and looked down.
Hiro walk next to her and sat down, he looked at her and said: "niko…i'm sorry we didn't made it in time…"
Cassie also sat next to her and said: "we've really tried…"
Momo move close to her trying to be positive "there's always tomorrow".
Niko took a deep breath and replied: "it's ok you guy's I wasn't that hungry anyways,let's just go home…"
They got back to the house, nikko was sitting on the couch watching TV in silence.
Cassie look over the door frame and whispered: "poor niko I wish we could do something for her…oh wait i got it!!!".
Cassie call everyone, she told them about all of the stuff did to help everyone and she suggested a gift for her, everyone nodded and stared to make Niko's gift, when they were finally finished iris call her… she got up and walk to the kitchen.

"We knew how much you really wanted that sandwich so i went online and searched for it's ingredients and told the girl to help me out". Cassie explained.
Niko walked closer to the sandwich and ask: "but how did you made it so big?".
Asuka smiled and said: "it was all thanks to kazumi…she used her spells to make it".

"It's ok niko i'm not angry anymore".
"Well niko what are you waiting for…go eat it". Cassie replied.

"I'm happy for you niko…also creeped out at the same time." Kana said.
Niko grabbed the sandwich and began to eat like if it was the last meal she's ever gotten.
Momo giggled nervously and said: "oh my, she was really hungry".
