" No" Carisa refused, " If you want it then fight for it"
Diziriela looked at the girl marveling at her courage. She looked at the girl amusingly and asked, " Your parents must be teaching you a lot, aren't they?"
" None of your business" This time it was Kein who intervened.
Diziriela once again gave out a fake smile which was immediately replaced with a frown.
" Enough playing! Now hand that over to me!"
She tried to go over to Kein to grab the core from him but before she could reach him, Queen Aisha blocked her way.
" Sorry, but if you must get the core you have to pass through me first"
" Be my guest" Diziriela quickly replied, before throwing a punch that was faster than a flash of light.
The punch touched Aisha but she was lucky enough to shift back before the blow fully landed on her face. Diziriela again didn't wait for Aisha to balance from the punch she nearly received before throwing another attack.
The attack looked like a blue liquid with some flickering lightning around it.
As Aisha saw the attack coming, she formed a barrier around herself to protect herself from the lightning but to her disappointment, the lightning easily passed through the barrier, throwing her five meters away across the floor.
Kein and carisa tried to intervene but their mother raised her hand to stop them from doing so.
" You know without that energy core, you guys are nothing but a piece of cake. Weak" Diziriela sneered.
" Yes I know and that is why I would like to show you this!" Aisha yelled before her eyes turned bright gold. She stretched both her hands and a few golden auras flew out of her body and moved toward Diziriela.
Diziriela laughed at the action of her opponent and tried to throw another attack, only to find out that she couldn't move.
" What is this?" She asked with her eyes wide open and blood red.
" This is just to show you that we are not that weak without our energy" queen Aisha said before looking at her children, " Kein, Carisa, a portal will open behind you any second from now and this portal lead to earth"
Upon seeing where the Queen was pointing, Jaden instinctively moved back a little away from his group to get behind Kein, waiting for the portal to appear so he could be able to escape from this predicament.
"You two will be taking the energy core to earth but I want you two to promise me that you will revenge for your father's death when you reach earth with the energy core"
"Promise me that you will also get your revenge on other planets as well for ruining our planet. Then after that, promise me that you will rebuild Ectopia by placing the energy core back on this basin"
Aisha's eyes were full of tears as she said those words. Each word pierced her heart and made it bleed on the death of her husband.
" Okay, we promise," Kein and his sister agreed in unison.
" But mom, why do you sound like you won't be coming with us?" Carisa asked.
She seemed bothered about the way her mother was saying those words as if she was saying goodbye to them. And that was the last thing she ever wanted. That has always been her biggest fear.
" Because I will be sacrificing myself so you could escape with the energy core and return it later when everything has been settled"
Diziriela's face tightened with anger at that word and the veins on her face started to appear visible.
She struggled to break herself out from the force that was pinning her down, " you know I won't let that happen, nobody steals from me!" She yelled angrily as she continued to try to pull herself out of the force.
" Who is being a criminal here? And you don't have the right to call this core your own. This core belongs to people with good intentions and not people like you who desire power at all cost" Kein said furiously.
Diziriela let out a chuckle at that statement which made everyone confused. The statement is never in a way funny so for Diziriela laughing was quite suspicious.
As everyone was concentrating on Diziriela, no one noticed that the mirror behind them has started shining brighter like a cloud. When looking at it, one could easily think that it was void of some sort.
" What wise words for a young man. I must say I see your father in you which I don't like. I hate that anyone has to be my rival and that is why, I will be clearing out all the members of the royal family today" Diziriela said before breathing in a good amount of air and then shouting with all her voice, " get me out of here!!?"
As Diziriela shouted, all the force that had held her in one place got loose. As no one was expecting her to get loose from the force, they didn't know when she escaped from the force but before they could take any other action, Diziriela had already fired an attack.
The attack was an energy stealer. It was in the form of a spear but in liquid form. This makes it hard for someone to touch it. The spear with some kind of electricity flickering around it steals the energy of anyone it pierces through their bodies.
Aisha rushed to look, only to notice that the attack was heading in one direction which was toward her son.
Without thinking twice, Aisha jumped into the attack thinking that it would stop the attack but to her misfortune, the attack pierced through her body and kept going forward.
She fell on her knees from the pain but her eyes were still on her son who was about to get hurt or probably die from the attack.
Kein was still confused about the situation. He could see the attack coming at a fast rate towards him but didn't know which way to avoid the attack.
He stood there in shock not moving because he knew that that attack wasn't just a mere attack.
Carisa looked at her brother, hoping that he would make a move to dodge the attack but by the look, she noticed on his face, she knew that he was going to move any time soon.
Kein watched as the attack came closer to him without moving and when the attack was about three inches from passing through his heart just like it did to his mother, Kein felt someone shove him down.
He looked up with curiosity to know who pushed him down but to his ultimate surprise, he saw his sister standing in place for him and the spear was just about to pass through her heart.
His eyes widened in total shock and anxiety. He couldn't bear to lose one more from his family, so without thinking twice, Kein threw the energy towards the attack.
When the spear and the core collided, an explosion took place.
Kein, Carisa, and Jaden were pushed into the portal that appeared behind them a long time ago due to the force of the explosion. Apart from them, every other person inside the underground was sent flying across the walls.
But one thing happened. The Core has been damaged and shared. Its powers have been shared by every single soul on that underground.
The explosion that took place gave everyone possession of the power of the energy core.
But not all the powers were shared. Some of the powers also escaped through the portal leading to where Kein, Carisa, and Jaden were heading.
Hence, these shared powers held a great probability in the future. It either ends the world or puts it back together.
