A strange Reunion
Logan gets up from the ground instead of crying about. He points to the direction of where the 13 is but they have to focus on the real problem. The lair slowly starts to crumble in and it is only a matter of time until the second roar comes through. The earthquake earlier awakened all of the city and they started to panic, people get into their vehicles trying to run away, but to a certain point they seem to burn into ash.
"A barrier surrounds us, we need to close this lair"
As they were about to close it a massive hand comes out of it. A massive lower-demon, it opened its mouth wide open and creatures come out of it. Some even dug out of his body due to their impatience and ravaged everything around them.
"The domain is useless now, we fight it"
"Got it, River!" Remi jumps up and her shifter transforms into several creatures as well. Alucard rides one of it and cuts open his palm, his blood dripped into strings and flowed around the area striking the minions. He pulled hard and all of them falls down. Logan pulls his bow and fires directly upward into the sky, he uses his clairvoyance to spot all of the creatures and the arrow automatically strikes into their hearts.
More waves of creatures came from the lair and Logan tries to keep them at bay. The sizes of the creatures maybe massive or small, but more of them are coming.
"So far none of them are getting into the middle of the city, Kristina"
"Yes?"
"We have to conjure as much imperium as you can and point it towards that massive lower-demon, make sure to call me, Whisper here will keep you safe, you do not have to worry"
"Got it" She holds firmly to her dagger and imperium starts seeping into her. It attracted the lower-demons, it startled her resulting in her stopping but Logan persuaded her to push forward. Whisper surrounds her and destroys any demons that go near her, and she ensures she does her role.
"BAKUNAWA!" Logan screamed. The team looks up and sees a massive serpent-like dragon, like a quetzalcoatl but without the feathers, and a slimmer shinier body. Its screeches loudly and they mistook it as the second roar, as they stopped and waited.
"LOGAN THAT IS NOT IT! KEEP FIGHTING!" Alucard said in order to keep Logan fighting, but the vampire was proven wrong as the second roar came and it was louder and clearer as the one who made the sound is already halfway out of the hole.
"This is disgusting, FUCK LOGAN!"
"Got it"
As he was about to attack the massive lower-demon fell on its back and destroys part of the hotel. He turns around to see people in cloak, the same cloak that he noticed days ago. They showed their weapons and Logan was startled by the sudden action.
"WE ARE HERE TO HELP! YOU DO NOT HAVE TO FEAR US! WE, ALSO-"
"YEAH QUIT TALKING AND CLEAR OUT THE OTHER MINIONS, SOME OF THEM ARE NEARING TO THE PEOPLE!"
"As he wishes" The 2 instead offered their support by stopping the minions that has passed their line of defense. The people in the city starts to panic as they see the creatures go after them, from small sizes that is comparable to rats to sizes as large as an airplane, but the 2 was quick to defend and swiftly slays and of them.
"Officers, are you okay?" The police raised their guns to her and shoot, as they fired more rounds they realized it was useless. The bullets are all floating in mid-air. She turned around to the waves of minions going after him. She closes her eyes in order to strengthen her clairvoyance and sees all of their auras. The bullets heat up into a orange color and is launched, 1 by 1 it pierced through the hearts of the minions. She controls all of them.
"Now, officers, do as I say, bring all of the civilians to the safest place near the area"
"There is no safe pl-" The ground rumbles and everyone's panics get rowdier. They all held onto their lives, or anything. The short rumbling stopped and a massive hill shadows the city.
"Go there, that is a safe place, I will cover you all"
"....."
"GO NOW!" The police officers do as they did and led all of the people, despite being in the threshold of chaos they all remained calm and lead the people. The minions tries to attack them but the supporting 2 was quick to destroy them.
"Thank you, the both of you, RIGHT. KRISTINA!"
"YEAH!"
"We're going after the big guy" They look over to the gigantic demon as it slowly picks itself back up. Parts of it's torso seems to be fleshy more than muscular. It moves around with no control and continues to destroy the ruins of the building.
"HOW ABOUT THE DRAGON THINGY!"
"REMI HAS IT, JUST FOCUS ON BUILDING ALL OF THAT UP, YOU'LL ENTER THE MOUTH"
"Wha- what!"
Remi manages to fight back the Bakunawa as it grows in length. It speed was quickly matched by Remi who has confident on stopping, confident enough to even kill minions that passes her. The creature seems to be on the defense as it tries to create some distance in between them, but Remi was too fast.
River grew a talon and easily snatches it's heart from its body. The Bakunawa falls and creates low and high screeches, calling for the minions. A group of the minions suddenly changed direction and went the Bakunawa, but they were all easily called.
"Keep calling them" Remi said with a creep grin, obviously the creature does not understand her and kept calling for more, and Remi keeps destroying them. Her Morpheus turned into several spears which she struck deep into the creatures body, pinning it down on the ground.
"Keep growling, keep calling them"
River seems to not tire because of her connection to Remi and continued on the defense. As for Whisper, he gives his all out to kill and clear for Kristina who was just about to finish manifesting Imperium.
"Come on, I know this is not enough"
Logan stands in front of the lair and kills all of the minions that stood beside him. Something Kristina noticed as he approaches the gaping hole is that none of them were attacking him, instead they were bowing down. She sees Logan's gaze towards her as he stood there, he moved his left hand towards his face and "shushed" her. He pointed his palm in front of the lair and the chains came out, it quickly wrapped around all of the minions that comes out of the lair, sealing it.
"KRISTINA!"
Seeing this she aimed her dagger towards Logan, but there is something weird about her. She tries her best to aim towards the giant but her body seems to just aim back to Logan. Whisper aids her and aimed her hand towards the giant.
"HERE GOES!"
She outstretched her hands and throws it with all her might, Whisper turned into a black shroud and revolves around the dagger so that nothing can block it. The dagger landed on the demon and chains followed the path that was made back to her. The chain links starts to grow from her palm and up to her arm.
*Control it, it is nothing to be afraid*
"Logan?"
*Yeah, do not worry, I am here*
Kristina wraps the chains around her arm and makes sure it does not move. She pulls hard on the chain links, even whisper helps her.
"YEAH COME ON!" The minions stops in their place, almost as if they are in a bit of a panic. Those that can fly fell down and writ in pain, those who are on the land grabs their head, covering their ears. They all seem to be in pain.
"What is happening to them?"
"You think they did it?"
"No, we need to go up there, kill all of this"
The minions changed in color and grew in size, and they all became much more aggressive, or even desperate. They all made noises and ran back towards the lair, even pushing and killing their own just to make haste. Some of them absorbed the other or even devour their hearts.
"Remi, we need to protect them"
"Yes of course, WHISPER, RIVER, PROTECTING THEM IS OUT PRIORITY NOW!"
"Logan, can you extract all of this"
The whole night sky was covered by the minions, their wings flap in the wind like hurricanes, and their screeches like a terrifying rumble of the storm. The giant struggles to move as the chain wraps around it. Its mouth opened wildly, and the roar comes. All of the minions responded to it with their own screams, they sounded like living people screaming in pain.
"We can beat them, actually that is all we can do now"
"And we are here to help you" 6 More people of the same cloak appeared behind them, and the other 2 finally arrive.
"That voice"
"Right, everyone, Logan and Kristina's safety is our priority, F create a tree that will wrap around the 2, use the imperium that is leaking out of their body, K, you help and use the faint dark imperium"
"Got it"
F and K jumped in between the 2. K put their arm on F's back and F put her hand on the ground. A tree quickly sprouted around the 2 and it grows bigger.
"We got it!"
"Good, next, S and E, you guys will stay here and create walls of defenses, you will be our last defense
"Got it"
"As for us, A, V, N, we try to eliminate those minions much as possible, Alucard and Remi, you guys can do that as well"
"This is a strange reunion, Lady Harriet"
"Of course, we had no idea that you guys were already here in the Overworld, how did you get out?"
"Long story, for now, Lady Harriet, I presume, I shall aid all of you in the elimination of those minions and Remi will be another defense, her and River will be of good use"
"Good, just in time" The roaring of the giant stopped and it was longer than the first one. The ground shook and all of them can sense dark imperium floating into the minions. Harriet attempted to move but was stopped by Alucard.
"We cannot do yet, if you go in their the dark imperium will destroy, we must wait until the have absorbed it"
"Which one, our side of theirs?"
"Both, they will absorb all of it, Logan will use Kristina's help to absorb all of those dark imperium"
"Why?"
"Because he has too, and he is the only one capable of doing"
"Sir Alucard, where is the other 2?"
"One died, and the other cannot leave, focus on what is in front of us, their finish"
"ALL RIGHT, DO AS YOUR ENTASKED!"
"YES MA'AM"
The 5 charges ahead to the swarm of minions and are immediately faced with a much harder foe. Abaddon enjoys the slaughter as he watches from the mountain, scaring everyone that sees him.
"beautiful isn't, all of this just to take this world, and all of you along with it, you humans, as much as I want to kill you all, I cannot, it will be too hard them, well, See you guys"
Abaddon appeared right before the 5 and gave them hard punches to the guy, but they are unaffected.
"HALT!" The demon commanded his legion and stopped.
"As much as I want to use the Omnituens, I cannot, the Angels come after me, but you also know that it is too risky, tell this to Seraph, Harriet, is that your name?"
"....."
"We are all nearing the end, and we are stronger than all of you combined, good luck"
Abaddon disappeared and the fight continued. The 5 threw their all. Even for how long they have been fighting the minions have not been properly cleared, all of the are struggling but they kept their head on.
*Why are they not helping us*
Logan asked Harriet telepathically.
*Where are they? Oh, I blocked all of them out*
"What was that"
"That was Logan"
Logan's tree exploded into smithereens and floats, the splinters all struck the minions and chain links appear and connect to his back. He looks up the giant and tears it's very soul of its body, and those that are connected to the chains. Kiosk manages to break the chain that was connected to Kristina.
"This power is" She cannot speak, "Terrifying" Kiosk finishes her sentence and he got it right. This malicious power is coming from Logan, not from the lair. And the souls of the legion was teared off and it was easily absorbed by Logan.
"Kiosk, you know what to do" Logan said, as if he knows Kiosk's power, who he has not met after their departure.
"Arise, soulless creatures of the dark, hear me, obey me, for I am not your master"
The fallen minions rises up and all of the marches towards Kiosk and bowed down.
"What do you want me to do with them" Kiosk asked with a shock in his face, he feels threatened and this shows to his minions who starts to become aggressive towards Logan.
"Calm down, I am still your friend"
"Enter the lair and never to return"
The minions rushed towards the lair and pushed everything that is in the hole. They jumped and pushed down and they all fall down on the ground, until eventually they all stopped coming.
"Seal it Enola" She punches walks up to the lair and closes it by spikes coming through. It sealed completely.
"That was quick"
"Yeah, it-" Hans and Harry came crashing in and lands a hard punch onto Logan's face and chest. They continued to strike him and no one seems to stop them, Alucard and Remi tried to help but they were easily incapacitated.
"WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON LOGAN?!"
"none"
"WE WILL NOT ACCEPT THAT ANSWER, WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON!"
"I... ask you... the sa..me.. question... Hans... Harry... whose side are you on?"
