Kyle and Ethan is shocked from the sudden appearance of Crystal with a gun in hand
Stacy: You!! Who are you?!
Crystal: Dead people don't need to know, just realized that they've been killed
Crystal aim two pistols at Stacy before shooting at her which Stacy retaliate by blocking the bullets with earth wall using her telekinetic ability
Stacy: Those guns of yours *look at the damage Crystal guns dealt with her earth barrier that is as dense as steel that got shattered like it's nothing* what are they made of?
Crystal: *continue to shoot at Stacy* Less talk just die already
Crystal continued to shoot at Stacy not letting her fight back and Stacy couldn't help but block or avoid Crystal's attack waiting for an opportunity to strike.
While the two are busy fighting and wrecking the forest with their onslaught, Kyle is doing his best to get out of the spiky binds all over his body
Kyle: Arggh!! Get off!
Kyle continued to force himself out of the spiky vines tearing off his skin in the process
Jake: Kyle, stop it! You're breaking your body apart
Kyle: I need to get out of this vines Jake, I'm the only one capable of helping you guys get out of here right now
Jake can only look up at Kyle as he try to break free from the somehow unbreakable vines
Kyle: Just a little bit more
Jake can only watch in awe as Kyle generate light all over his body that slowly loosen and even incinerate the vines fully as he finally breaks free from the vines.
Kyle look at his hands and on his body only to find there is no injuries on it from the thorn of the vines earlier
Kyle: Just what is going on?
Before Kyle can continue with his thoughts Crystal suddenly got sent flying and landed beside them
Crystal: *slowly stands up and unsheathed her sword from her back* I already know that you won't be easy to handle *take a stance*
Stacy levitate on the air with vines all over her body which she controls like another set of limbs while grinning mischievously at Crystal with her glowing red eyes
Stacy: Still not gonna tell me your name sweetheart~?
Crystal: *looks up at the red eyed succubus* Yeah, definitely gonna be a long fight, when is my backup gonna arrive anyway?
Stacy: I don't know who you are and why you're here but I will promise you one thing, before the sun rise come your head will be located under my foot, where it belongs~
Crystal: Don't be too sure about that yet *prepare to strike and focuses her own aura on her sword*
Stacy: Oh?
Crystal: You're not the only one who have a hidden card up on their sleeves
Crystal's aura burst out before she disappeared from her spot then appear in front of Stacy as she tried to slice her up which Stacy retaliate by hitting her with her own vines.
Crystal is doing her best to cut off all of the vines that came her way but eve she knows that she have limits and it's only a matter of time before she gets defeated.
While the two girls are fighting at superhuman speeds and causes a lot of distraction throughout the forest, Kyle can only watch in silence while tightening his fist because of how weak and helpless he felt right now and while that is happening a hand suddenly grab his shoulder
Jake: I know what you're feeling right now but we have more important thing on our hand right now
Kyle: *looks at Jake and nod* You're right, can you stand Jake?
Jake: Not really but I guess I can manage because of this situation *look at Kyle while smiling weakly*
Kyle: I see, let's get Ethan
Kyle put Jake's arm over his shoulder as he help him walk towards Ethan's direction, even though things isn't looking good for them right now it's a good thing Ethan isn't getting affected by their fight
As Kyle and Jake make their way towards Ethan the two suddenly appear in front of them, fighting in a standstill and not letting the other party get an advantage against one another
Stacy: I must say~ you're quite skilled for handling me this far but both of us know you'll be running out of breath soon~
Crystal: Is it too much to ask for you to just shut up and fight?!
They continue on fighting in a standstill but the longer the fight last the more Crystal is approaching her limits, while that is happening Kyle and Jake finally manage to get towards Ethan
Kyle: We're here, now what?
Jake: Take Ethan and leave this place, leave me here for I will only slow you down, beside I'm kinda curious on how this fight would end
Kyle: No, I will not let the both of you stay behind
Jake: Well what do you plan to do? You can't carry us both alone
Kyle: I wanna try something
Kyle pick both Ethan and Jake then put them both on his shoulders even though the both of them weigh the same as him, Kyle can still move just fine with only feeling a slight heaviness on his shoulder but something he can manage.
Kyle walk away from the clash of two really strong ladies and keep on going till he's finally content on the distance they have on the women. He put Jake and Ethan carefully on the ground then face the direction of Stacy and Crystal.
Jake: Kyle, I know what you're thinking, but please think about it, you might have got some weird superpower just now that made you stronger and heal most of your wounds into nothing but if you go back there you'll be commiting suicide
Kyle: I know, but I have the power to help her I can't just stand here and let her die like that
Jake: Kyle listen to me, Stacy almost killed you before and when you punched her earlier it didn't have any effect on her, if you go back there you'll just stand in the way of the other woman that's fighting Ethan's crazy girlfriend
Kyle: Jake, if I don't do anything, she's gonna die out there
Stacy and Crystal continue to clash and little by little Crystal is getting slower and slower, unable to react to some of Stacy's strikes that cut some part of her skin
Kyle: She saved us from being killed by Stacy
Little by little Crystal movements are getting sloppy due to exhaustion which leads her getting stab on the shoulder with one of Stacy's vines which she can only do is grunt in pain as she contiued fighting
Kyle: So I'm planning to help her back
Jake look at Kyle intensely then just sigh
Jake: Fine, go ahead it's not like I can stop you anyway *smiles warmly*
Kyle: *smiles back at Jake* Then I'll be going then, thanks for understanding
Kyle prepared to sprint towards the fight but halt to the words of Jake
Jake: Also Kyle... Be careful out there and wreck her shit *grins at Kyle*
Kyle: *glance at Jake from behind and smile* I will
With that Kyle sprinted towards the fight leaving Jake and Ethan somewhere in the forest away from all the chaos that's happening and also leaving Jake in awe with so much things happening in one night especially his friend suddenly become a superhuman as he look in the direction Kyle just sprinted towards as in the span of 2 seconds Jake can no longer see Kyle's form at all because of how fast he ran
Jake: *sigh and scratches chin* Ethan's not gonna believe this when he wakes up
While Jake take a break and watch over the unconscious Ethan an unknown person is walking towards their direction till he grab Jake's shoulder
??: Hello there, may I know what are both you and your friend doing in this dark forest?
Jake is sweating bullets because of how much pressure he can feel towards the person who's holding his shoulder as he slowly face the person.
Jake: Uhm, me and my friend are just exploring the forest at night sir, w-we got tired of walking for a bit so we took a break for a moment to get our energy back, sir
Noticing Jake's uneasiness the person suddenly laugh and pats the back of Jake's back lightly
??: No need to be so formal with me, I won't eat you much less hurt you, I'm just curious on why are the both of you here in the middle of the forest is all
Jake: Right... *Still skeptical about the person's words* what about you, what are you doing in the middle of the forest all alone?
??: Oh me? I'm just here to pick up my stubborn cousin, she told me she is somewhere in this destination, that reminds me, have you seen a girl with guns around here? She never left without her guns after all
Jake: (Guns?, is this guy related to that girl who's fighting Stacy right now? If so this guy might be extraordinary as well) Y-yeah, but she kind of got in some sort of trouble, my friend is on his way to help her with it
??: I know, that's the reason why I am here, I heard the person she's fighting is not that easy to deal with because if it is, she wouldn't ask for my help, btw can you point me to the direction where you last saw her?
Jake: That way *Point towards the direction Kyle just went to* My friend said she's in danger and he is running towards the place to help her, please sir, help them defeat Stacy
??: (Stacy? Does this person know the identity of the being Crystal is fighting right now?) *nod in affirmation* Don't worry, that's what I came here for
The person walk towards the direction Jake pointed as Jake couldn't help but get the feeling that everything would be fine now that this person is here.
Jake: Oh btw sir, may I know your name?
Arthur: Oh did I forgot to tell you? My name is Arthur, Arthur William and everything will be fine now, you can leave everything to me.
Arthur smiles warmly at Jake and gave him a thumbs up before walking towards the fight while releasing an aura of a very powerful person.
Arthur: Just wait for a bit Crystal
Crystal keep on fighting for her life as Kyle is running towards the fight hoping that he won't be too late
Arthur: I'll deal with the problem when I get there
Arthur promised while looking calm and stoic while flaring his aura dangerously across the forest where he walk.
