Avyanna ran through the forest.
She was almost there.
A while ago , She had left Kyra to take care of Rosalind before She had emerged out of her projection.
Kyra had laid on the floor unconscious while Conrad had sat near them watching , careful not to break the circle. As soon as she she stepped out of the circle , she felt strange .
Something was wrong with Levi.
She had suddenly broke out running , with Conrad yelling her name in exasperation.
If she could just reach Levi in time...

Levi was now enraged at Gothel's impudence . She was getting on his nerves.
Gothel regained her stamina. Over the years, She hadnt forgotten how powerful he was. She lounged at him with her Claws of death and managed to scratch his arm as her nails dug into his skin.Levi jerked her back as she flew through the air and barely landed on her feets like a cat .
An infuriated Gothel swore as she silently recounted some incantations from her grimoire . Levi suddenly felt weightless, his feets were getting farther and farther away from the ground.Gothel rose her hand and with a quick wave , Levi found himself flung against a tree.A thick invisible iron grip seemed to be clawing at his throat , tightening around his neck with each screwing like movement of her hand.
Levi retaliated with another deadly strike that sent her through the ground, 50 paces away.
At this moment , Avyanna came in panting.
Levi looked at her. "I thought you all abandoned me and fled. What are you doing here ?
"Not even a thank you?! "Avyanna exclaimed . "I came back here to help you , you ****k.
"I can handle myself, unlike you". He taunted.
"Don't you dare use that tone with me!!!!" Avyanna shouted back.
By this time , Gothel had risen from the ground and set her eyes on Avyanna. She tittered . She could remember herself once, being young and brimming with life.
But ...
Oh well...
She was going to make him pay.
Moving as fast as wind even in old age , She calculated the risks and decided to take a move while his guard was down.
"Art of death : Demonic fist!" .
"Damn it " He swore under his breath as his eyes caught sight of her coming towards him.
Gothel levitated up and threw balls of fires in his direction. Levi pushed Avyanna out of the way and used his palms to deflect the blow.A huge gust of wind arose from the point their fists met and Levi was pushed back by the overwhelming force.
He glanced down at his palm. It was bleeding.
He never expected her to ever be able to attain this level of power. It wasnt as high as his but still...
He was bleeding , though it was only a scratch.
And worse ...
She seemed to be enjoying their little fight .
"Are you ready to submit?" Gothel asked.
"Over your dead body " He bit back.
Out of thin air , Numerous serpents made their way towards her as she chuckled.
"Really, another parlor trick?!! Fool me once ;Shame on me , Fool me twice; Shame on you!!!"
She snapped her finger and all the snakes fell to the ground as strings of rope.
'Roll Initiative '
'6'
"Yes."
Avyanna held out her hand towards Gothel in the midst of all the chaos , and began to invoke a spell.
"Harbingers of the Divine Empress of Death, I summon you from your resting place. RELEASE!!!
Swarms of dark creatures flew toward Gothel enveloping her . Avyanna smirked to herself. No one could get out of that.
A eerie fog covered the entire atmosphere . What was stranger still was that the mist was blood red.
*******:::::::::::::::::::
John sipped his diet coke and looked at his sheet again.
After taking that much blows from Gothel ,his character was at his weakest .
Levi took out one of his daggers.
His energy levels were low so he could make any irrational moves.
Whispers and low moaning were heard. The thick fog made it so that Levi nor Avyanna would see each other as they called their name in the heavy mist.
Avyanna peered into the fog. She was sure she saw some one moving towards her.
She looked again.
Gothel, now creepily crawling on all fours, prowling around in the fog , glaring at her.
Avyanna was jostled as Gothel now held her strongly by the neck. She tried to fight back but her strength was leaving her.
'It must have something to do with the fog' She reasoned, for Gothel to enact it before she struck. It must be sucking out their life force making them unable to resist.
Gothel stretches out her hand and an invisible force pulled Avyanna back to her,raising her up.
Avyanna was choking as Gothel continued squeezing her neck with her magical hand grip and stared at her , Gothel turned to Levi "this time you will see the light go out of her eyes and knowing you couldn't save her "she cackled .Gothel felt no pity, but anger and jealously, determined not to let go until she was dead.
"You think he's going to stay! He's going to leave! Like he did me.,He's never going to change! ".She snarled.
Everywhere became blurry in Avyanna's eyes. She was trying to gasp for air, looking at the witch and smiling ,
"He can change even if not for me but for someone else .Don't we all deserve a second chance?"
Gothel eyes widened in outrage " You can say and believe in whatever you want but you're not going to leave here!"
She smirked.
"At least not alive" She scowled.
The mist began to clear up as she was able to spot Levi across from where she was standing.
Levi saw Avyanna closing her eyes and he called out her name but she was too weak to answer, Levi saw life slowly being snuffed out of Avyanna and got furious. His eyes turned blood red with anger as his body began to vibrate. A black flame engulfed his frame as he stared hard at Gothel , looking ready to kill or be killed...
Avyanna had never seen him this way before.
As she closed her eyes, and gave up struggling from Gothel's grip.
