Reece, Saturn, and Bennett traveled throughout the streets, in search for Morell after her disappearance.
Reece was marching forth, rather upset that the two had split apart once again,Bennett approaching her, as he gently placed his hand on her shoulder.
"Hey, it's alright! We'll find her eventually..-"
Bennett was quickly met with a backhand to the face, falling backnon his ass as Reece turned to him, looking down with her hands on her hips.
"Quit being all touchy with me, twit..!"
She leaned down to flick him in the forehead, before continuing stomping forth. Saturn helped Bennett back up, as he fixed the bandages over his eyes, rubbing his forehead, the two following behind Reece.
"I must ask.. Why do you wear those bandages over your eyes? You don't seem blind.."
Saturn asked, looking towards him in curiosity, as Bennett gained a smirk, crossing his arms pridefully.
"I've been waiting for someone to ask! Reece doesn't seem to care.. I'm not blind, my visions just TOO good, I can see right through the bandages! I keep it on so I'm not looking through people's clothes."
Reece quickly turned to Bennett, taking a stomp forth as she growled at him. Bennett flinxhed back, startled by her as he held his hands up.
"You're looking through WHAT!?"
She grabbed him by his collar to lift Bennett off the ground, her fist readied as Bennett squirmed around frantically, looking around for a distraction as he then quickly pointed to something in the distance.
"Wait-! Wait!!! Look, over there! It's..! Ah-!"
Reece punched forth towards Bennett, only to be bloxked by Saturn, as he grabbed Reece's shoulder and turned her around.
She dropped Bennett as he phewed in relief, then turning to look at what the others were, beginning to step back quickly. A suit of armor was walling towards them with a spear in hand, it's presence leaving a grim feeling..
"That's.. That's the stupid knight you made me wake up in the cemtery!"
Reece shouted, quickly getting into stance as she ran forth towards the knight, her monstrous mass moving to her hand, forming a large claymore shape, swinging it towards them.
"That things still following us..!? Don't blame me that you woke it up..!"
Reece's attack was quickly parried, throwing her off stance, the knight countering as it spun it's spear, delivering a flurry of swings Reece could barely block with no room for recovery.
The knight swung it's spear to the ground, knocking a chunk out from the road as it flung into Reece's face, knocking her back as she was then met with a spear into her shoulder, the others watching in shock.
"Ow..! Fucking shit..!"
The knight kicked her off it's spear, as she laid on the ground holding her wound, the knight about to stomp on her head, though Saturn quickly swopped in, unsheathing his blade as he delivered a palm strike to the chest, water forming out his palm like the drip of rain hitting the surface, the knight sent back.
Saturn approached the knight, as Bennett rushed to Reece, leaning down to aid her. The knight got back up quickly dashing towards Saturn.
It grabbed it's spear with both hands, before splitting them into duplicates, twirling them around before swinging them down at Saturn in the shape of an X.
Saturn clashes his sword with the two spears, sparks flying as neither of the two stop pushing back, as Saturn's eyes flashed in a blue light.
In the moment of a milisecond, Saturn draws back, twirling around the knight before delivering a full power strike to it's back, it all appearing like a blur to the bystanders.
The knight is sent down on one knee, as Saturn raises his sword into the air, beginning to swing down at the knight, the blow with intent to finish the battle off.
"Saturn, watch out!"
The feint callout was heard, as arrows had formed all around Saturn as a dome, all firing towards him at different intervals, as he stopped all his momentum mid-swing, dashing around as he began parrying and evading each one.
An unexpected spear was sent into the mix of arrows, Saturn's stance broken upon parrying it, leaving the knight a chance to delivering a powerful punch towards him.
Seeing the fatal attack coming towards him, Saturn quickly twisting his body like the lash of a whip, a sudden boost in momentum, as he rapidly punched towards the attack, hundreds of punches per second.
The barrage of punches knocked the knight's singular punch back, Saturn regaining his footing as he continued the barrage, now with both hands, pummeling the knight and leaving it's armor dented.
Saturn let out a war cry, his veins popping out as he gained a viscous blue aura, the punches completely flattening the knight's armor into a sheet of metal before he stopped, breathing heavily as his body let off smoke.
"Ah.. Huh.. it's an empty suit of armor, it seems..?"
He looked towards the armor oddly, picking his sword back up as he sheathed it, slowly reaching down to the armor as he poked at it.
Upon touch, the armor faded away into a black smoke, the arrows and spears following to the same fate, as the three looked around in confusion.
"Just like the castle…?"
Reece stood back up, biting Bennett's arm and drinking his blood to heal her wound, as Bennett shouted and tried to free himself. Reece mumbled as she spoke, Bennett's arm muttering her speech.
"Mph.. Maybe they're linked.. somph..- someone must be behind this all.."
She released Bennett's arm, wipinf her mouth of his blood as he sighed in relief, holding his arm. Saturn walked back to them, crossing his arms.
"We better find the cause of this.. they're clearly after us, perhaps one of Uvie's men.."
Reece pounced up, her energy back as she pointed her finger up, taking a stomp forth.
"Or Uvie herself! Surely that lazy brat would make things fight for her..!"
She then crossed her arms, impatiently tapping her foot as the three discussed the topic, though they were quickly interrupted by a slow clap, a forcfully seductive voice heard approaching from the alleyway.
"Well done, you three.. You defeated my little worker.. I now deem you worthy to aid me…"
An older woman, her lime green hair flowing down to her ankles exiting the alleyway, her hand on her hips as she smirked at them all.
"I am the True Queen…"
