Chapter 18 - The Minotaur's fate

The bulky commander put her on his shoulder before jumping into a distance putting her down on the ground to regain her strength .. afterwards he returned to fighting with the other commanders and captains .. they kept bringing attack after attack hitting it I and out and soon enough the minotaur could now be seen weak but still strong to wipe them out if it still had its feet .. "Let's kill it while we have the chance .. " before the captain who said so even got into close range .. a commander pulled her by the wrist "That thing wants you to think that it's weak and can't fight no more .. if you had gone to it .. it could've killed you with just a wave of its hand .. we'll do this together .." they joined forces and began attacking from different locations on the minotaur's body .. the minotaur's rage continued to rise up making it more stronger and more enraged but that didn't stop them from slashing their swords and massive attacks at it .. even though it wanted to look mighty infront of them .. it knew that it had no chance now that it was in its current condition ..

"I have a plan ..." a male commander with a slim body and two large axes in his hands explained the plan to them but they didn't agree and they didn't disagree all they were worried about was the outcome of their plan .. what would happen if they succeeded .. would it grow more limbs and start evolving again .. it was an impossible task for them to complete even if they were going to die today . they didn't want their deaths to be pathetic especially if their deaths would be caused by a 'dead walking' minotaur that was in its deathbed .. "I agree on it .. I mean .. if it absorbs too much power it will explode or maybe fade away who now's .. I've seen this a couple of times .."

"Where ..? In the movies ..? listen here this is not movie .. this is not a sad scene from independence day .. okay .. we're going to fight it like normal people .."

"You call us normal ..? normal people don't exist now if you ask me .. even if they do would you call their lifestyles now normal especially if they're in a matter of life and death crisis .. use your brains commander Weil .. stop acting like Samson .. this is not a lion this is a minotaur .. a damn giant minotaur that could squash us if we keep on blabbering about this .."

"I agree with commander Robinson .. I think we should try it out .." with no further ado the commanders called the other soldiers who were still alive and many .. once they were in place .. the commanders combined all the weapons in the field .. and now with every weapon combined everyone put their hands on the large weapon they had created using the combination key .. their electric energies started flowing down from the bodies into the weapon .. when the minotaur saw this it had a grin but acted dead ..

Particles of energy started to get sucked infront of the large weapon creating an energy sphere .. "Commanders if this doesn't work .. I'm taking you to hell with me .." commander Weil shouted pushing in his energy more and more into the weapon .. causing the energy sphere to grow in size .. and the particles kind of changed their bright blue colour as well .. it turned to green energy ..

Everyone put their strength and energy into the weapon charging it to its fullest .. some soldiers fainted during the process after their energy had been sucked out of them .. the others didn't lose hope yet and focused their energy on the weapon until it glowed slightly red and the heat radiating from it informed them that it has been overloaded and that satisfied them more than they had expected .. "Now ..!!" commander Weil then pressed a blue button on the weapon causing the energy sphere to stay in place without the need of their energy .. everyone there fell on their butts gasping for air whilst commander Britt aimed the weapon exactly to the minotaur's heart .. "Say hello to Theo for me .." she said in a low voice before shooting out the energy sphere .. unexpectedly .. unlike how they had thought it would just shoot out the sphere .. the sphere only shrunk in size before a large red beam shot out from it heading towards the minotaur with no spiral directions ..

The minotaur then raised its head slightly showing a menacing smile at the crowd before getting hit by the beam .. *ROAR!!*

Although it was painful for it .. it was also painfully worth it to regain strength and this was how it was going to do it ..

the red beam continued firing until the sphere had completely vanished .. and from a distance they could see the minotaur's body growing taller and bulkier than before .. when they saw this commander Weil was the first one to open his mouth .. ".. commanders .. as you all know .. I commander Weil was not part of your shenanigans .. so when we die

... I'm taking all of you to hell with me .. " he didn't shout or do anything embarassing instead he stood on the large weapon before making his short calm and gentle speech ...

Just when the minotaur was opening and closing its hand to feel the immense power it has just received from the stupid 'humans' .. it suddenly felt pain running through its body .. it's veins suddenly glowed bright red .. soon it's muscles were exploding and the squads cheered in their hearts as they saw the minotaur exploding "YEEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHH!!!" they cause a major uproar after seeing the large body thump on the ground with it's limbs ripped off from the blow ..

When they were busy celebrating their victory .. they saw the minotaur move .. when the soldiers saw this ... they made goatee faces .. "Ah , sunny day and night together ..

We were birds of the same feather

Until you decided to rip off my wings

As I fell I felt power surging into my body and I felt like a king

I turned into a dragon and I saw you flying above my mountains and territory

Just then I imagined giving you your wings cut too on your grave in the cemetery .. ah .. good day .. it was .. until you turned me into a monster .." no matter how stupid the soldier told this poem it still hit many in the heart .. and some even regretted being here and even worse .. a soldier in the back was starting to speak to himself as if he was literally speaking to a few people in the battlefield .. out of the blue he cried like a maniac ....

Coming out of the minotaur's body was another minotaur .. 4 times smaller than the bigger one .. and the one that had just emerged from the big one's body was driving with new and profound energy .. causing the others to give up and let fate take their lives .. since they had no energy left in them to fight and throw long range attacks .. they collapsed on the ground leaving Rose , the other captains and the commanders kneeling on one knee with their hands tightened into fists .. placing them to their chest in unison .. and just as they though this was only the minotaur .. a horde of 50 or so came out behind the bigger minotaur charging for the combined squad force .. *whoosh*

just when Rose stared closing her eyes .. a medium sized boney arrow with a golden glow flew past her swiftly hitting a smaller minotaur in the back .. when the squad force turned their heads to look behind them .. they could see a soldier like them who was holding a boney bow that was covered in golden lightning streaks .. more arrows started flying into the minotaurs direction completely missing the big one that was rushing towards the commanders and captains .. when the other minotaurs were killed .. the soldier ran forward and leapt into the air .. when he got into the air he combined his weapons forming a large boney sword enveloped in a golden glow .. *ROAR!!*

The minotaur kept charging forward despite seeing the power performed by the soldier ..

When the two crossed the distance between each other .. the soldier swung his large sword for the head slicing it completely like it was butter .. "Hoooo .. you guys had a lot of fun hey .." the soldier said dumbfounding and hurting the other soldiers who had lost their loved ones in the fight .. "Theo ..!!!" suddenly captain Rose jumped at him and pulled him into her embrace .. with tears flowing from her cheeks .. "Theo ..?" Roy suddenly opened his eyes as he raised his head to look at the guy who was 'dead' .. soon the others followed until everyone of them opened their eyes to look into the eyes of their hero .. "Wait .. he killed a Fifth stage Silver Rank Minotaur in its rage .." despite the situation they were in they were just wondering why was Theo a soldier and not a captain .. "Thank you for saving me .." Rose then let go of him and wiped her tears to look at him ..

He put on a smile and gave her a thumbs up .. "I'm not going to die anytime soon .. ya know .. " the soldiers then cheered for him whilst his teammates went up to him and kept looking at him as if though he was a ghost .. "Stop looking at me like that .. it's kind of creepy .. anyways I got you guys these .." he then retrieved six different roses with different colours and also with an immense energy coming out of them .. "Don't sell them okay .. it's a gift from me to you guys .. you must've missed me hey .." he scratched the back of his head .. 'What the hell is wrong with these guys can't they just give me a hug like captain Rose did ..?' he cursed inwardly as he looked at them taking the roses without saying thank you .. 'Wow the matter of life and death has really changed them .. hehe' ..

"Oh since I already got you a rose captain Rose .. I want to give you this .." he then retrieved a beautiful flower that seemed to resemble pink particles running in through it .. and a white glow could be seen in the middle part of the flower .. "This flower is called The Flower Of Prodigy

Worth - 10 000 pecuniary .. but like I said before .. you must not sell it .. it's a gift from me to you .." he the showed a big smile before heading into a different direction .. "Why are you all guys kneeling there for .. let's go .. the hunt is over .. I just overheard the other commanders getting a direct message from head general Brassard .. that the hunt is over .. I think he might've found out about the minotaur thingy .." he then turned around and looked at the soldiers who were coming in on him rushing and the few commanders walking with heavy steps .. and commander Weil with commander Grayson on his shoulder .. "Commander Britt when we get back I want to know everything about him .. and you do know that we can rip him off you right and take him as our own .. " commander Britt just looked at them and looked in Theo's direction "I don't care ... you just do what you do best .. steal .. and forget .."
