They all swing their weapons onto the enchantress as they give it their all, but Alison is prepared to retaliate against their attacks blasting them with a powerful wind burst. Each of them landed away as Gale and Yama suddenly started to run with a powerful boost of speed almost catching the Enchantress off guard. However, she was quick to notices the two Gale and Yamma suddenly sparks with the same lightning surging through Venny.
"What is this unexpected moment, lightning like me and that blood caster?"
Before she could react her side was suddenly punched. She looked down to see Venny plunging his fist into the enchantress as she was launched away followed by Venny throwing daggers at the enchantress but she pushed them aside from a gust of wind. "So they were just flukes". she muttered thinking Venny was their only one with the strings to fight. but her thoughts were still towards how fast Gale and Yamma are catching up to her with incredible speed "what is this I'm witnessing, when did they get a boost? Never in my plans I saw this?"
In a bit of confusion of the sight she is witnessing Gale and Yamma charge at her slashing their weapons onto her but are caught by the wind slowing their attack. Alison takes a moment to observe to see their palms showing blood dripping from their hands, Alison smirks, "I see now, it all makes sense". They both quickly realize that Alison already sees through their increase in power as they both quickly move back towards Venny and Dani. "I see how you can catch up to me whether I am launching or from afar. Venny has given you some of his blood and activated his magic to increase all your strength, endurance, and stamina, making you all at peak physical condition"
"Great that plan has already gone down the drain. What do we do, Dani"
Dani slowly gets up from her feet "from what we know already, she can use dark fire, as well with Venny's blood magic, and Jin's wind power. Going in as one will surely defeat us. But she has not yet fully mastered either of their abilities to their fullest. We will use Jin's wind to make it our advantage as it is impossible if we can push through, Gale, Venny go forward, me and Yamma will give you some openings"
"right!" They all heard and agreed to her plan.
Then the four quickly move on with the plan Gale and Venny move forwards as Dani and Yamma set off towards different directions firing projectiles at her with daggers and fireball spells. But Alison pushes the attacks aside.
"Can't you tell from your friend's wind is the best with dealing with useless ranged attacks" as Gale and Venny dashes towards her. Alison uses the wind to push them back away, but they are pushed through the harsh wind from Gale's shield and Venny resisting the wind.
"What? How is that possible the wind should have push you all away"
Venny smirked "haven't you forgotten, you stole our abilities only yesterday, so you never had the time to learn the limits, nor that you have the time to master!" Venny leaps with immense speed and uses his dagger to plunge it into Alison's shoulder, he tries to use his blood alteration and curdle her insides but it seems to be ineffective "of course the one thing about having my blood is the immunity to my blood alteration. However, you are not immune to damage with my fist!" Then Venny started to summon a flurry of punches at Alison as Gale charged from the side bashing her with their shield. "This is for my Gale! The one you murdered!" Gale shouted payback for what happened to the original Gale.
"Get away you Changeling!" Alison quickly summons a circle spell below her.
"Oh no, Gale move out of the way!" Gale quickly backs away as a ray of light is shot from above "that's moon beam. She knows that attack too!?" Gale backing away as multiple moonbeams started to target Gale.
Alison then grabs Venny and throws him aside as he was then launched with a blast of wind launching him, he yelled far and he falls into a rack of weapons piercing his body. With Gale distracted and Venny pinned down, she look at Yamma and Dani "I have enough of those useless weapons!" She taps the ground twice causing the ground to quake a bit. Until two golems crawl their way onto the surface "get those two" the golems charged at Yamma and Dani ready to destroy them.
But Ezrael quickly flies and slashes the two golems in an instant as he lands pointing his weapon at the enchantress. "Your reign of terror is over Alison. No more will suffer on your hands"
Alison gritted her teeth in frustration "well look who it is, the coward who slipped from my grasp. When I'm through with you all. You Mulrum, will be in grasps till your pitiful life ends!"
Then a spear was swinger and slashed behind her looking back she saw Moria appearing from a puddle of water "you traitorous Siren!" Blood gushing from Alison's mouth.
"You don't control me, or Ezrael, or anyone ever again!"
"Then you will also perish with a pitiful death" lightning begins to crackling on her hands but Moria quickly moves back as she splashes some water onto Alison before Ezrael unsheathes his sword and brings out his chain sickle leaping forwards. Alison unleashes her lightning onto Moria, but Ezrael was able to react quick enough reaching towards Moria igniting his chained sickles with his fire and swinging his sickle frenzied, blocking every lightning strike.
"Everyone! Don't waste a single moment! Move with your lives and weapons depend on it!" Ezrael leaps forwards as the floor behind his feet starts to break as the others do the same charging towards Alison.
Yamma and Gale leaping forward, Moria using her water warp onto a nearby puddle for a surprise ambush, Dani launching herself with a fireball spell. Venny getting back onto his feet as he is pulling out the blades of weapons of out his body with blood dripping out from all his wounds activating his blood magic even further over the limits, turning his daggers into short swords with the expression to kill his opponent, he dashes forwards with a greater speed than his own with his veins glowing bright red all over his body.
"Why do you weaklings keep on fighting!" Each of their attacks connects onto Alison taking damage, as she is using the wind to push them back but when they fall to the ground. They get back up and continue the fight "don't you see this is pointless. You are all just going to waste your miserable lives, even if you slay me. Around the world they would not create records of your feats, you all will be nothing till history has wiped you all out!"
Then a punch can be felt full force by Venny "that's the point, we will be forgotten, just like how I was forgotten for ten years. But it will be a better tomorrow without you" Alison quickly pushes him aside but is caught by Dani as Ezrael and Moria attack her "your species will be soon wiped from existence, aren't you worried about your people"
"What's wrong my 'mistress' you seem to be losing your composure" Moria giggled
"We may be extinct sooner or later. But we will never be used for control ever again" Ezrael said as he flicked his tongue exhaling a white fire at her.
But Alison was quick to sway the fire away and was fed up by everyone's actions towards her quickly uses the wind to push everyone away as she levitates into the air using her dark flame to conjure all the fire within her power to create a large dark fireball "hearing your heroic acts just makes me boil, I thought I would have fun and take it slow to you weaklings. But you have proven me wrong" she chuckles to herself. "I guess it's time to reward you for your efforts. In death!" Alison fires the dark fireball at the others.
But suddenly Vines sprout underneath the ground, growing larger and thicker as it all forms above them creating a barrier to block the large dark fireball "this is Ralian's magic. Where is she?" Then sprouts of vine began to emerge more far enough to reach the enchantress levitating above "what is the meaning of this?" She wonders to herself. Until a wolf started to run across the vines hopping onto the leaves then onto the end of the vine the wolf leaps with all it's might as it latches its jaw onto Alison's arm. She yelps in pain as they both began to fall "get off my you disgrace mutt!" Alison tries to get the wolf off her but the wolf bites harder onto her arm until the both fall to the ground, but the wolf quickly hops off Alison before ripping off a chunk of her arm off before the wolf started to spin with a blinding light as Ralian transform into her original form.
"Ralian!" Gale in joy to see their friend safe as she stood tall with a bit of blood on her mouth.
Alison gets enraged seeing Ralian free from her chains "you! How dare you intervene"
Ralian wiping off the blood on her lips as she smirks "to be honest that tasted terrible, never thought the wolves would bite onto a human. Also I am nothing compared to you, I do not harm the lives of any living being unlike you!" Alison showing hatred towards her "and you of all Druids should know. Those who live among our people and harm those who make nature suffer are those who should never be one of us, and never will be, you already lost yourself long ago"
Alison grits her teeth in frustration "Shut up!" Alison's hand burned with fire as she quickly summons a blast of dark flame at Ralian, but is blocked by Gale as Ralian goes from behind and retaliates, summoning a lightning strike of her own. Alison was thrown through the wall onto the other side of her quarters showing a burning core "Thank you Gale" "It's alway a good thing you are safe, Ralian shall we."
Ralian smiled as she nodded "we shall".
Then the others also made their way but Ezrael was shocked by the sight of the burning core "it can't be, that is the core of my people. Its heat was the one keeping us safe from cold climates"
"Seriously I thought you dragons breathe fire, why does a burning core help" Venny asked
"We dragons can't keep using our fire forever. There is time to rest and regain our fuel to make more fire" as they all look at Alison defeated, bruised, bloodied, even one of her arms is broken bleeding heavily.
"What should we do with the enchantress. Cuff her with binding spells" Venny asked
Moria shook her head "no she is immune to those types of spells"
"Well we know she can use multiple types of spell, in fact she could've used hundreds of spells or elementals at us"
"If that's the case, looks like death would do for her. There's no point in sparing her life".
Suddenly they notice Alison slowly getting up spitting out a bit of blood from her mouth as she grinned "sparing my life" she chuckled manically "don't make me laugh when you think you've won. This is only the beginning" as she turned to look at the others showing her face with cracks all around her face as she begins to back away towards the burning core as she took off her gauntlets, rolling up her sleeves showing more cracks around her body.
"You think the reason why I kept the core of those pestful dragons to keep this entire room warm, then think again" Alison places her hand onto the core.
Ezrael's eyes widened in shock "what do you think you are doing!" Ezrael quickly dashes towards Alison before the others could even react.
Alison chuckled again "you may be a well strategic dragon. But that was a bad move" as the cracks on her face began to appear further "the burning core can go on by dragon's fire and elemental energy. Thus this will be my last, as I will transfer my soul into pure energy to convert this core into nothing but a bomb! This will be enough to wipe this pitiful world into nothing but dust!" Alison laughed maniacally before Ezrael could react. Alison's whole body explodes into energy "no!" Ezrael screamed in frustration as the energy started to siphon into the burning core changing the colour from orange into a magenta purple as it started to beat faster.
