Marvella had returned from a faraway war between two sects; she was hired as a mercenary to help one of them.
When she came home, it was entirely chaotic. The floor was wet and seemed to have been flooded by clogged toilets. She didn't need an explanation and went to look for Adonis.
When she looked for him in his favorite spots- He wasn't there, this made her worry, and after thinking for a minute, she concluded that Adonis clogged the toilets as a distraction to go outside. She knew his adventurous side too well.
She went to look for him, and using her insane speed and senses, it didn't take long to find him. Seeing a fireball coming at him, she immediately reacted and stopped it.
Adonis was sitting on the ground, looking at his sister in shock. Marvella crouched down and reached for him; Adonis closed his eyes and lowered his head, thinking she would smack his head for being stupid.
Instead, she patted his head and said, "Are you okay?" in a caring and worried voice.
Adonis looked up to see his sister's concerned expression; he nodded and felt awful for making her worry. Marvella was relieved and looked back at the Magma Turtle, who regained their senses after being shocked by what this girl did.
Marvella looked at the turtle with a cold expression and sized it up; she scoffed and said, "Barely a warm-up."
The turtle could tell she taunted them by her expression. This angered the turtle, and they roared; Marvella casually took out her sword, and blue flames started to spark out of her and surround her sword.
The turtle smashed its feet into the ground, and three spikes made of obsidian and magma came out; they all speed toward Marvella. Marvella wasn't fazed; she ran toward the spikes and used her flames to dodge and deflect the attack.
The turtle was surprised, but it then sent a wave of lava toward Marvella. However, it was nothing in front of her; she covered her body in blue flames and easily charged through it. Marvella finally decided to attack and sent out a few fire slashes. The Magma Turtle was confident it would be immune to the fire, but it made deep gashes in its hard shell when it hit. The turtle was in pain and shocked by Marvella's power.
The turtle felt a wave of fear as Marvella closed the distance. It created a significant barrier made out of obsidian to protect itself while it gets its next attack ready. Marvella made another blade out of blue flames; she stabbed it into the barrier and made her fire erupt. The shield around the turtle exploded, and Marvella continued her charge; however, the turtle had its technique ready.
The turtle made a hand of lava erupt from the ground behind it; the hand immediately launched toward Marvella. Marvella jumped out of the way, but the hand traveled through the magma and shot toward her underground. Marvella's senses were sharp, and she continued to dodge the hand while it continuously came out and into the ground. Realizing this was going nowhere, she jumped into the air and let herself get caught by the hand.
Adonis and the turtle thought she actually caught.
"SISTER!!!"
*ROOOOOOAR*
The turtle roared in joy as it thought it finally killed the pesky human until it noticed lightning sparking around the hand. The hand immediately burst; it wasn't just the hand, but its entire arm had lightning around it and exploded; it looked as if the fuse was lit on a bomb.
Eventually, the entire arm was gone, and the lightning went into the ground from where it came from. The turtle looked around but didn't see Marvella. It did feel the sudden rise in temperature underneath it; when it looked, it saw the ashen rock glow blue. The turtle immediately used the rock to maneuver itself away from the blue; the ground erupted into blue flames, and Marvella came out of it, looking as if she didn't just travel through magma.
"Trap Claw"
Marvella put her left hand out toward the turtle, and three blue swords shot toward the turtle in a curved way so it couldn't dodge. The turtle reacted quickly and had the obsidian covering its head glow a bright orange. The blades met the orange helmet, and after a struggle, the orange helmet came out victorious.
However, Marvella was interested in the orange helmet's durability, so she burst toward the turtle; the turtle rammed its head at Marvella. She met the ram with a blade made out of lightning' she then used Explosion Sword. The lightning blade exploded, and the orange helmet couldn't take the force and broke.
Marvella was launched back due to the force of her attack; she saw the broke helmet but no wound on the turtle's head.
"Hm, harder than expected."
The turtle was pissed at its broken helmet and charged a fireball within its mouth. Marvella prepared for it- but it wasn't launched at her; instead, it was shot toward Adonis.
Adonis was staring in amazement at his sister; while watching her fight, she looked like she was dancing with the sapphire flames. He was mesmerized by her fighting and control of fire; he was so stunned that he didn't even realize the fireball was being shot his way.
Marvella reacted quickly and used Lightning Shiver to appear in front of Adonis. She then used her blue fire to coil around her blade, the fireball was coming at breakneck speeds, and Marvella focused intently on it. When it was right in front of her, she stabbed her sword into the fireball's center.
"Core Splitter"
The coil discharged a heavy amount of fire and diffused the fireball. Marvella was pissed off even more at the turtle.
"You're still trying to hurt my brother despite us fighting..."
Marvella looked up at the sky as if she was considering something.
"I decided..."
Marvella looked back at the turtle with a dead look.
"That there won't even be ashes left when I'm done with you."
The turtle felt fear that it had never felt in its life; with such heavy panic, it immediately created five spikes and shot it toward Marvella. This time, the spikes had magma bombs attached to them. Marvella waved her hand, and five spheres of blue flames with lightning acting as a shell appeared' the fire and lightning shell made them look like Sapphires; this is where Adonis got his inspiration for Calidus Bomb.
"Gem Fire"
The five Sapphires shot toward the five spikes; as soon as they made contact, they both exploded, creating a screen of fire and dust. Marvella used this to close the distance in an instant.
The turtle saw Marvella run out of the flames, and it immediately made spikes appear from the ground. However, Marvella was far too fast and had so much control over her fire that she easily weaved through the spikes.
The turtle was scared for its life, so it made a tornado of lava around itself. Marvella created a lightning blade and used Explosion Sword again. This time, she threw the sword at it. The tornado of lava was split in the front, and the turtle tried to react, but Marvella was faster.
"Star Flame"
Her blue flames converged into one point, and a 4-pointed star shined and erupted heavy flames toward the turtle. The Magma Turtle was sent flying and felt a pain that it never felt before- it was what it felt like getting burned.
However, Marvella wasn't done yet. During the entire fight, she continuously supplied her sword with blue flames- making the fire condense until it couldn't anymore. She pointed her sword at the turtle in the air and released the full force of the Sapphire flames.
"Sapphire Litura"
The condensed Sapphire flames shot out like a streak of light. It had an Azure glow while it flew at the turtle; when it hit, everything went into suspension for a moment. That was when a four-pointed star shone brilliantly for a split-second, for it to then explode into a blue-flamed nuke.
The explosion was so large that shrouded the entire Lock Mansion in its light.
Marvella still had such excellent control that she protected herself and Adonis from the fire.
For Adonis, it was a spectacle.
Wherever he looked, sapphire flames wisped and flew by him. He was enamored by the fire and felt like he was seeing an entirely different world.
He reached out his hand, and even though he knew he would never reach it, he still tried.
For him, all he wanted was to enter the World of Blue.
