Get Ready To Rumble
Ella was trying to figure out why Sara had grabbed her when suddenly, Sara asked Jason in an unusually polite manner if she could see Ella. Despite this, Ella had a gut feeling that Sara had some sinister motive. Just as she was about to question Sara's intentions, Sara forcefully grabbed her by the chin and uttered, "Keep your hands off that man if you ever want to see your family again."
Typically, Ella had a high tolerance for rude individuals, but Sara had blatantly crossed the line. The moment Sara insulted her family, it stirred up Ella's inner demons. She reacted fiercely to the verbal assault with a forceful push. Before anyone could comprehend what was happening, Sara was sent hurtling through the air, crashing to the ground at a distance.
Jason had been with William the entire time and was oblivious to what had transpired until he heard the crash. Startled, he turned to see Sara on the ground, and then noticed Ella with her hands outstretched, clearly indicating she was responsible for the extraordinary push.
Jason was about to rush to their aid when William held him back, gripping his arm firmly and stating, "It's too late." William, more than anyone, knew that Sara wouldn't let the vampire off the hook for daring to fight back. Sara thrived on the game of predator and prey, always positioning herself as the predator. They all had to watch as Sara lay on the ground, her eyes barely open. She had underestimated the vampire and never anticipated the retaliation.
Slowly, she rose to her feet, her hands still on the ground, and suddenly erupted into the coldest, most chilling laugh Ella had ever heard. Sara had been seeking a reason to eliminate the vampire, but now, the vampire had essentially sealed her own fate.
Sara finally regained her footing. Her bleeding lip was evident, but the powerful aura emanating from her was more striking than her visible injury. "If you fear the darkness, then this is your darkest hour as I unleash my absolute power," she declared.
Ella turned to glance at Jason and William, puzzled as to why they weren't intervening. Then, she recalled William's earlier warning about Sara. It was in that moment that she realized the extent of Sara's terrifying transformation. The woman with wolf-like features had sprouted fangs, long, razor-sharp fingernails, and piercing, crystal-clear wolf eyes. She appeared as an embodiment of death in that instant. Though terrified, Ella was also seething with anger. She had done nothing to provoke this psychopath from the beginning and had grown weary of being bullied. If Sara wanted a fight, she was determined to give her one.
They stood facing each other, as if anticipating an invisible referee's whistle and a narrator announcing, "Get ready to rumble." Sara propelled herself forward on all fours, resembling a heartless murderer. Observing Sara's demeanor, William initially believed she would merely torment Ella. However, witnessing the ferocity of Sara's attack, he realized she was intent on going for the kill. In Sara's eyes, Ella was nothing more than a helpless prey. As William turned to instruct Jason to intervene, he was startled to find that Jason was nowhere to be found.
Sara ran and leaped behind Ella with wolf-like agility, poised to slash Ella's back. Ella, in a quick and resourceful move, used the chains on her hands as makeshift shields to defend against Sara's assault.
She continued to employ the chains to minimize the damage from Sara's attacks until Sara, frustrated by Ella's resilience, seized her by the wrist and forcefully tore off the shackles. As Sara attempted to strangle Ella, a sudden rock from the ground struck her head, interrupting her assault.
Ella, who had been struggling to evade Sara's razor-sharp claws, found herself wishing for a rock, and inexplicably, one struck Sara's head. This uncanny event left Ella pondering whether she possessed some form of telepathic ability that was aiding her in this dire situation.
Just as the confrontation was on the brink of escalating further, they heard someone shouting.Sara had Ella cornered, and she was irritated by the interruption. She recognized the voice as Jason's, but in her heightened state, she paid little attention to his urgency.
Her adrenaline surged, fueled by her intense desire to dismantle the vam before her. In a rage, she challenged Jason's command, demanding to know if he intended to fight for Ella. Ignoring her question, Jason diverted her attention by stating, "There's someone in the cave." Sara's eyes widened, and she immediately advanced into the cave, activating her wolf-like senses.
After a moment of thorough investigation, she declared, "There is nothing here but rats," seizing one and displaying it to Jason. Subsequently, Jason cautiously entered the cave, with Ella trailing behind, anticipating a potential resurgence of Sara's lethal instinct. As they approached, Jason insisted, "I'm serious, can't you hear something ticking?" Sara appeared skeptical and was on the brink of dismissing his claim when she inadvertently stepped on something.
As they stood in the cave, the atmosphere was charged with tension and anticipation. Jason's urgent warning about the presence of someone or something in the cave echoed through the dimly lit space, prompting Sara to investigate, her senses heightened by the lingering adrenaline from the confrontation with Ella.
Upon entering the cave, Sara's eyes flickered with a mix of skepticism and annoyance as Jason insisted, "I'm being serious, can't you hear something ticking?" Sara, consumed by her singular focus on confronting Ella, was about to brush off Jason's assertion as a mere fabrication when an unexpected twist halted her thoughts in their tracks.
As Sara took a step forward, her foot made contact with something on the ground. A sudden movement beneath her shoe caught her off guard, causing her to swiftly retract her foot and step back. To her astonishment, a stone carving emerged from the ground, depicting a grotesque vam's face with menacing fangs. The eerie sight sent shivers down their spines, enveloping the group in a collective sense of confusion and apprehension.
Before they could process the implications of this surreal discovery, the very ground beneath their feet began to tremble violently. In a heart-stopping moment, the cave entrance caved in, sending a cascade of dust and debris hurtling toward them. The once-calm surroundings were now a whirlwind of chaos and uncertainty as the dust cloud enveloped them, plunging them into a disorienting darkness.
The unexpected turn of events left them grappling with a myriad of questions. Had Sara inadvertently triggered a trap, or was there something else at play in the ancient depths of the cave? As the dust covered everything in sight,they found themselves in the eerie stillness that followed, the trio were left to confront the unknown, their senses heightened and their instincts on high alert unable to see or hear each other anymore in the blinding dust.
