Chapter 27 - HOUSE OF SNAKES 5.8

The snake attacked them all with its tail and they all fell to the ground, their wands scattered. 

It grabbed Shelly with its tail and tightened it's grip. 

Shelly made a choking sound. 

Flinging Shelly to the wall, it lunged at Zo but Fina pushed Zo away and got hit instead. 

The snake, with its mixture of male and female voice laughed at them. 

It picked them all up and tightened its body on them. 

Zo gasped for breath and Shelly Jefferson kept hitting the snake. It didn't as much bulge. 

It tightened its grip more on Fina and she struggled for breath. Fina could feel a rib cracked and then another. 

Shelly kept hitting its body until it turned its attention on her and tightened its grip more on her. Fina, with all her strength summoned her wand but couldn't grab it. 

Summoning as much concentration she needed, she said in her mind… 

"CMANTUSREDUSEYUSSNAKUSDUVIUS"

The snake screamed so loud the walls rumbled. 

A portal opened and began to drag the snake. 

"Ye shall not succeed. Ye shall all die! Ye shall not succeed. Ye shall all die!"

It got dragged completely and the portal closed. 

"Seems like Ruxia finally met her match"

They all turned to see a nun garbed in complete black. The nun smiled at them. 

"You are not a woman" Fina said 

His lips was painted in blood red and his face was dusted with white powder. Black rimmed his eyelids making his dark eyes more scary and prominent. 

"Yes. I certainly am aware of that"

"You are not going to kill us, are you?" Fina asked cautiously 

The nun painted mouth tilted upward in a small smile. 

"I don't know. Am I?" He asked "Guess we are about to find out"
