Scarlet and Ruth were just about to open the portal when Scarlet felt something. Something sinister and dark made all her senses numb before her brain started to warn her of how not ready she is. She squeezed her hands, made a fist, and tried to force courage into herself. It was now or never because if anyone else could do what Hayward could(which was manipulating chaos magic), he or she would be able to use the sword itself. And there was a chance Talon could do so.
The portal opened up and the warm wind from the other side blew through her brown hair. She could hear the gnarling and roars of monsters. Scarlet took in a deep breath while closing her eyes as she braced herself to fight whatever was on the other side.
"Wait," Jack called out from behind.
Scarlet turned, and she saw the entire group running towards both of them. Alex had already recovered so there was no need for her to be so worried about her.
