One. Two. Three!!!
With an explosive dash forward, Lily unleashed her furry of assaults on Garrick non-stop. Her hands were a blur as she slashed at him from all possible angles.
Garrick parried Lily's daggers with his sword, narrowing evading thousands of lethal strikes. He stomped his feet on to the ground, and with a resonating 'bang!' punched Lily in the face.
Lily was thrown back metres, blood streaming down her lips as he dug into the arena grounds with her face.
Garrick dashed after her. He lifts both aces held in his hands and was about to hit when he perceived a strong sense of danger.
Lily rose up from the massive crater she dug with her face. Her brows twitched as she locked eyes with Garrick.
"You are still able to stand after that punch, eh? I had thought you'd go down and stay do-!" Garrick said, but was interrupted by a huge blue fireball coming at his face.
BANG!
Garrick was brutally blasted out of the arena. His clothes were burnt to a crisp, and his skin darkened from the flames.
"Puh." Lily spat out blood. Her eyes wandered up to the red haired man, and the arena trembled.
"It's not over yet!" Garrick roared as he charged back into the arena with anger written all over his face.
Lily looked up to Lucas with the words 'what should I do' written in her eyes, only to receive a blank look in response. Lily shook her head.
'Blunt as always.'
Suddenly Lily erupted in azure flames, burning from head to toe. Her eyes had turned completely green as she looked straight to Garrick.
Garrick paused, his heart skipped a beat as his blood rushed up to his head. His eyes were dilating as he looked at Lily.
Lily spewed blue fire out of her mouth to Garrick. Her green eyes glowed brightly as her flames grew wilder.
"What is that? Isn't witches and warlocks the only creatures with blue eyes?!"
"Immortal Azure Flames! That's a mystical being all right! No human can contain so much power, not even witches can use it in such a manner."
"D-Dragon...!"

Kage and his men had defeated various waves of demons and had retreated back to their fortress.
"Lord Kage, your sister's aura has been awakened again. The candle had lit up in azure flames!" A short bald headed man said. He was a stout as a pig, weighing over a hundred kilograms.
"Duke Evergreen, the warlocks and witches will need to be ready for the war. I don't have time for Lily yet. Father and the higher divinities have been summoned to the council, we need to be ready for the worst." Kage sid with a dead serious expression on his face.
His team had faced a single wave of those demons alone, they barely made it alive. The enemy were powerful, they'll need to be prepared.
Duke Evergreen pursed his lips in thought. That airheaded dragon always gives him a headache, right since birth.
"Queen Lily is a real pain in the behind." Duke Evergreen muttered under his breath.
"I know." Kage said with his brows furrowed.
"Ah..." Duke Evergreen almost forgot of his Lord's presence. He thanked his tongue for not uttering any thing bad about Lord Kage, or his head would've been rolling down the fortress stairs.
"Prepare an elite army for me. We'll have to stop the demons' advance." Kage said as he walked away with his eyes dark.
Evergreen sighed. A man of his calibre should be resting at home now, but duty calls.

Lily indeed looked like a dragon now, her azure flames had formed blazing wings on her back and her face was covered by the flaming head of a dragon.
Garrick blocked the flames with his hands crossed before his body. He bit back a curse as his hands began to turn into darker shades of black from the heat.
The flames started weakening at snail's pace as Lily grew more tired with time. Her glowing green eyes dulled as she pulled back her raging flames.
Garrick seized the golden opportunity and made an explosive dash forward. His axe glowed sinisterly under the sunlight as he lifts them up above his head.
SLASH!
Lily looked up instantly and a self-satisfied smirk appeared on her face. Her face seemed to scream the word 'idiot' as her energy exploded.
"Welcome your doom." Lily said as she released more explosive energy.
Lucas had grabbed both handles of his chair in anxiety as he watched the fight. Two times, two good times. Lily had come out of a cornered position with no injuries.
"How~?" Garrick said with confusion written on his face as black was was blown into the sky.
Lily stood up with a smile on her face. Flawless instant defeat.
"Lily wins!"
The crowd erupted into cheers as Lily finally beat one of the most ruthless enemies with her power.
The red haired man was fuming in anger. He face was a darker shade of dark red as steam rose from his head. A vein bulged on his forehead as Garrick finally crashed to the ground.
Lucas sighed in relief. He had finally noticed he had been holding his breath the entire fight, a sense of pride rose in him as he saw Garrick land to the ground unconscious.
Lily gave Lucas a thumbs up, and Lucas wasn't able to receive throwing his thumb in the air back at Lily.
"Lily, Lily, Lily, LILY~!!!"
The crowd had gone crazy with their cheers. The name Lily filled the arena as she walked up to her seat.
Lily won.
