Chapter 6 - Chapter 5: The Wielder

The static electricity lighting struck Hero's hand and instantly he was covered in smoke, when all of this was happening the demon just stood there and watched everything as it unfold.

The smoke cleared and Hero was kneeling with one knee facing down, purple electric waves flowed all over him and in his right hand which was the hand he reached out with and was struck. He was now holding the sword in his hand like a capsule opening up the sword made a pshh sound when it was releasing some dark mist.

"Finally". The demon smiled showing it's white sharp teeth.

And Hero lifts his head and he also gave the demon a little smile while his eyes glew in purple colour.

While all of that is happening on the other side Rebecca was busy smiling and laughing, enjoying every moment when she was watching the rock crack up with her zombie minions having their way with the magician.

"Come to me my Soul Reaper". Rebecca feels the moment and calls up the sword which lifted from it's rock, she smiled with satisfaction.

But in a blink of an eye Rebecca just felt a gust of wind swoosh in front of her, she didn't even witness what the hell was that. The moment she realised it was probably too late.

"My sword!!!". She screamed.

The sword was gone and she felt like she was losing her mind, Rebecca constantly looked around for it but it was nowhere to be found. How can a sword just disappear just like that in her eyes? She asked herself.

"You, deadbeats. Where is my sword?". Rebecca asked her zombies.

They didn't see anything either they just continued with what they were doing devouring the magician.

"Were you looking for this?" Someone speaks.

Rebecca turns her attention to whoever said that when she stares straight away she's shocked to see the sword releasing purple electricity.

"Who are you?" Rebecca starting to get pissed.

She takes a closer look to her surprise the person who is carrying the same sword she declared hers was none other than Hero Hudson the same person she assumed she had killed.

"How in the?". Rebecca in shock.

At first she didn't believe her eyes so she decided to look where the body was lying and to her discovery there was no body there.

"But you are dead". she said.

Hero was kneeling with one knee the sword in his right hand.

Rebecca (chuckles) "you better hand the sword over to me or she's done if she hasn't died already". Rebecca talking about the magician.

That should have made Hero crumble and easily give in but instead of doing all that Hero also chuckled.

"Take a closer look love". said Hero.

Rebecca had no idea what the hell was he talking about so she decided to play his mind game, she then realised that on the other hand Hero was actually holding the magician. Who's clothes were torn it showed her skin from that moment Hero realised that she was a girl, who was covered in scratches and blood also unconscious.

"How!!!". Rebecca couldn't believe what she just saw.

She looked at her zombies only to find out that half of them no longer had heads she looks up and their heads spill blood on her while still in the air.

Rebecca screamed as she gets covered by zombie head blood.

"What are you waiting for?! Go get him!!". She throws a tantrum.

The zombies all run for Hero who was all alone against a zombie horde of about twenty five zombies tops, he looks at the magician.

"Hold on". He said.

For a split second it looked like Hero was getting in a running position because he just leaped in the air and cut through all of the zombies then he went back to his position.

The zombies didn't feel anything they just continued to run for him all seemed well to them, that's up until they all crumbled into pieces like they were being chopped.

That gave Rebecca a jump scare and chills.

She screams again "fine I'll kill you myself!". She said.

"Ooh" Hero realises that he was about to face an opponent that was way more stronger than the zombies."okay don't be mad at me but I'mma need to lie here I promise I'll be back for you". Hero puts down the magician.

Rebecca puts the helmet on her head again then starts to make hand signs like the magician did, but hers were different in both signs, hieroglyphics and in colour.

"You are dead now!". Rebecca said angrily.

"We'll see about that". Hero waves around the sword.

They both run towards each other screaming Rebecca performs a hand sign by waving her hand and raising one hand then closing it with a cut in the air. A dark purple bird-like hieroglyphic comes out of nowhere then a dark huge purple crow comes out and flies through Hero.

Hero grunts in pain whatever power that crow had it seemed to have done a number on him, because he was burning in purple fire.

But he keeps running towards Rebecca who now isn't running but walking slowly.

"You are about to be dead soon, so it's pointless to keep running for me". Rebecca humming.

"Oh yeah, and why is that?". Hero keeps on running.

"I just hit you with one of the most deadliest hieroglyphic called Satan's bird, which will release deadly toxins in your body and go through your bloodstream and cause a major damage by the time it reaches your heart you'll be dead". Rebecca explains with excitement.

While Hero's running he suffers a minor heart attack causing him to cough out blood and bleed through out his nose. He slows down and struggles to keep on running.

"Wow I didn't expect it to work so fast, but do you see what I was talking about?". Rebecca enjoying this.

Hero feels like he just suffered another heart attack and this time he heard the heart stop it was loud, he didn't know what was happening to him so he just tripped.

"What did you do to me?". Hero asked as he falls down.

"Heh, heh" Rebecca begins to dance "I told you what was happening to you, now do you feel your heart burn and your insides feel like they are melting? It was nice for you to try but you are no match for me". Rebecca dances ballet around Hero.

Everything seems to be fading and turning black in Hero's eyes at least he's still holding on to the sword, he keeps watching as Rebecca continues to dance and hum. His eyes are shutting down, he opens them up again now Rebecca is standing next to him.

"Thank you I'll be taking the sword now". Rebecca goes for the sword.

Hero goes unconscious while he's out he sees a purple flame burning.

"Are you dying already? What a waste". A deep powerful voice came out of the flame.

"I don't know what to do I can feel my insides burning and my heart melting". Hero in pain.

"So? Man up you weakling I chose you for a reason now don't disappoint me". The flame spoke.

"But I'm so weak" Hero's coughing his insides.

"I'll borrow you my power for now I don't know if you'll be able to bare it, so let's not waste any time reach out your hand". The flame ordered Hero.

Hero was crawling with his stomach it was clear as daylight that he was good as dead, so he crawls and reaches out his hand like he was told to do so. The flame burns his whole hand.

Meanwhile Rebecca tries to take the sword away from Hero who is now helpless, just as she's about to rip it off his hand. Hero grabs onto it tighter.

"Impossible". Rebecca speechless.

Hero just slices the sword Rebecca jumped out of harm's way in time, then Hero gets up from the floor he didn't use his own hands to lift himself up. He just got up.

"How? What are you?" Rebecca stunned.

Hero was silent but Rebecca could see and feel the intense and horrifying presence in the air, she saw something demonic standing behind Hero and holding him. Then it gave her a sinister smile showing it's razor sharp white teeth with it's eyes glowing purple.

Not only did it scare her it made her even shake uncontrollably, her whole body was trembling and paralyzed. In a matter of seconds she saw sleeping Hero cut through her.

She just saw herself coughing black blood, she falls.

"What the hell are you?" She asked one last time before she died.

Even though Hero was asleep he smiled sinister, he walked weakly towards the magician and raised the sword. The demon disappeared before anything else and Hero fainted next to the magician and let the sword go.

"Here, here I found them". Those are the words Hero heard before blacking out.
