Fedyenka in one swoop got up from the pile of dirt.
"I can't even unleash my ultimate strike. If I do then maybe they are gonna be affected by it. Shit." mumbled Fedyenka.
"WHAT IS IT? Mumbling now, my dear?" said Sabio Seventh as he laughed like a devil.
"Yeah, what's your problem with that? How about I visit you now and then a bit? Lemme go!"
"You started this fight. Now is no time to stop it."
Sabia Seventh created an army made of sands. Then he awakened a giant robot out of the dust. With such a large army by his side, he said,
"Show me all of your power Fedyenka! Let us see is you have reached your true potential."
Fedyenka stared up to the sage. His army came towards Fedyenka. No matter how many she destroyed, there were more that were being created.
"Fedyenka...Fedyenka."
Fedyenka could again hear the voice. She still could not understand whether the voice was a female voice or a male voice. She could not understand who it was. She could hear it in her brain. When she spaced out, Sabio Seventh began a powerful earthquake. She got covered in coal and dirt. Her body once again got pierced. But her regeneration power was so powerful that the pierced parts got regenerated again, letting out the small pieces that entered her body.
While they were fighting, Yuri, Phantom and Qiang Li were locked up in a suffocating place. The 'guard-dogs' said that the place or room was the best one.
"I bet Fedyenka is being smashed into pieces right now. We gotta do something, she will die. It is worst than the thunder strikes." said Phantom.
"When she goes all out we go all out as well. It's either do or die but it all depends on Fedyenka now. If we go there with all our power and she just holds back thinking it would hurt us, well, it's gonna be a huge problem." said Yuri.
"Can't we make her use her whole power? She is too sympathetic. Will she really go all out?" said Qiang.
"I don't know...I guessed that something like this could have happened but it was unavoidable. We had no other choice." said Phantom.
"You just rush things too much. Look at what you've done!" said Yuri with a raging voice.
"I really had no other choice. The war has to stop. I feel guilty for pushing her like this. All these are happening because of me. The war, Fedyenka's sufferings...all of them."
"Couldn't we change our plans midway?" said Qiang.
"No. If we did then we would have to pick the Trench of Khijir which was too far and definitely, the place is now well guarded by OUTE. If we didn't leave 'Ard Aldhahab, we would have been in a big trouble." said Phantom while walking away from them.
"Oh...it pains me to see you like this. I will give you a chance. Accept my offer and you are freed as well as your friends." said Sabio Seventh as he slowly got close to Fedyenka. He grabbed Fedyenka by her neck and pulled her close. Sabio Seventh was incredibly tall which made Fedyenka feel like she was facing a monster. His body was skinny and rough. He held Fedyenka's face and said,
"My face was once pretty like yours...My heart was filled with sorrow like yours. We can fix this though. Just accept whatever the hell I am saying. Stay with me forever and you are freed from these sufferings."
Fedyenka looked at him with a still stern face. She did not even blink which made Sabio Seventh think that she might be dead.
Meanwhile, Fedyenka was still thinking about the voice. It spoke to her again,
"Think about yourself before anybody else. If someone dies, it was fixed from the very beginning."
"What?..." said Fedyenka so mutely that Sabio Seventh could not hear it.
"What did you say?" said Sabio Seventh.
"You have to kill everyone." said the voice.
"Why?" said Fedyenka.
Sabio Seventh was confused. He kept asking Fedyenka what was wrong. Fedyenka stayed silent.
"The answer is too simple. I thought you already knew. If you keep doing the same thing, it doesn't make any difference, does it?" said the voice.
"No...then...what should I do?" said Fedyenka.
Sabio Seventh slammed her on the ground and said,
"I hate miserable things like you. You are tired already aren't you?"
Fedyenka was still in her deep thoughts. The voice replied her,
"You are able to make decisions of your own dear. I don't hold you back."
"What should I do..." said Fedyenka.
"Do as you please..."
"What about the aftermath...I hate doing illogical things you know...wait who are you?"
"I am no one. I do not exist in your memory. In any way I cannot be anyone right now."
"What?"
Sabio Seventh pulled her and slammed her on the ground again with the mechanical hand. She did not do anything about it because of the numbness she was feeling. She could not focus on the reality. She could only hear the voice and see what was going on but she could not pay any heed to it. Sabio Seventh smashed her again and again, she was getting smashed and regenerated again and again. Her wings got withered.
"If you don't do anything, things won't change. It will go on like a circle. Go on, do something. Anything. You always do something don't you?"
"Should I try killing him?"
"Don't only try! Do it!"
"Okay..."
Fedyenka opened up her withered wings again. She slowly got up. Her whole body was charged up. She was covered in dust and blood which made her look incredibly gory. Sabio Seventh let out a laugh and said,
"YOU ARE FINALLY AWAKEN!"
Fedyenka went behind Sabio Seventh and kicked him. However, her kick was not enough to finish Sabio Seventh. He got raged up and let out another laugh like a mad man. Fedyenka, being weaponless, had no other choice but to use her bare hands and legs. She destroyed the barrier made of dust that Sabio Seventh made. Even though it was regenerable, Fedyenka was not alone. When they knew that Fedyenka had started her rage, they came breaking through. Yuri and Phantom blasted the place off. Yuri made a protective barrier and tried to protect everyone doing the best he could. Qiang on the other hand unleashed his dragon spirit. His golden dragon form was delicate yet powerful. Sabio Seventh was no man to accept defeat. He activated every single mechanical being of him and rose another army of sands. Qiang was busy fighting the army. He was an immature trainee of OUTE who chose the path of the righteous. Now he has to suffer for it. The path of the righteous is never easy they say. He did his best but was pushed into a corner by the huge army.
"Damn it...Qiang is getting kicked into dirt by them. Fedyenka fuse with me, you take-"
Phantom could not finish his words. The whole place started shaking even more. Fedyenka and Phantom could hear the sound of burning magma coming through.
"Ah, I guess we will die now." said Sabio Seventh.
"YOU DID IT NOW FIX IT!" said Fedyenka.
"Shut up young child. I mean all children are young he he. I will not fix it and we shall die here together."
Fedyenka has yet to learn many things. She could only attack and destroy which made her feel even more useless. Sabio Seventh turned his giant army into dust. His mechanical beings stopped. He hoped that everyone will bid farewell with a lovely smile and he will get a happy ending. It was going just how he wished it to be. Phantom took them all in one place and Yuri shielded them. Sabio Seventh got raged up but he stayed calm. He calmly went towards Fedyenka and said,
"I will tell you all something even Phantom does not know. You all are lost beneath the earth now. The first level of earth actually. There is no way back. No matter how much you try."
"There is a passageway right?" said Fedyenka with a face of a child.
"Fedyenka..." said Qiang to stop her from saying anything as immature as that.
"Yes there is! No wait there was. The magma that is going to come here, are dragged down by the Afgrond. Ah I remembered it's name. Perhaps our disturbance has somehow raged it up. How so? No one knows. There won't be anyone alive to figure it out anymore."
Fedyenka still with a false hope in her heart, started observing the place to find a clue. She could see the magma slowly filling up the place. Yuri's shield was boiling hot while Sabio Seventh was slowly getting burnt. He just kept laughing. Fedyenka stared at everything wide eyed. Being in Yuri's arms, tears dropped. For some unknown reason she blamed herself for all these. She had nothing to do. She let out some words out of her tongue,
"I don't want anything to end now...I am scarred..."
