A solvent wind breeze by. Her auburn eyes widened as her hair fluttered. She stood up with lips parted whilst adjusting her hair. Her partner in crime, Selena, did the same.
Aleysius who was being treated by Maria looked at the sky. "The air feels different."
Maria wiped her sweat of her forehead. "Perhaps he's gone and done it."
"Aren't you worried?" asked Aleysius.
"With every heartbeat, father-in-law," said Maria.
"Darling..." Selena gripped her sword tightly.
"Stay here, Selena," said Cecile. "We are both beyond our strength right now. It would be dangerous."
Selena clicked her tongue and gripped her sword tightly. She was in no condition to continue the battle, nor was she able to continue. She placed her hand on Cecile's shoulder as she tipped.
"I hate feeling helpless," said Selena, seething.
"Would you look at that, in time of chaos, we discovered a common ground," Cecile smiled.
