《Guardians : Awakening of Athene》Chapter 20 - Fateful Encounter
Advertisement
The intense scream attracted the monsters in the maze as if it was calling out to them. Ogres, goblins of all kind directing themselves towards the location of the sound.
Kiva reacts to the loud vibrating. With an unease expression on his face, his body dissolved into purple particles of matter as he vanishes into thin air.
The metallic claws almost reaching Hana's neck as she stood up, protecting the unconscious girls. Her eyes closed tight, not willing to discover the future. Only after a while, she slowly opens them, little by little, only to see Alice hesitating at the moment.
Alice struggling herself to stop, as if she still has a little conscious of herself. Her eyes repeated altered back to its' original colours against the colour of bloodlust red. Her right arm shakes with pressure as if she was trying to control it. Her mouth mumbling one single word, telling Hana to run.
Hana stared at Alice, imaginary of the scene flashes into her mind. Fear consumes her as she falls onto the ground. Backing up, while praying to the gods.
With the last control of her own will, she stabs right arm with her left claws, Her ruby colour eyes turning back to its original black as she screams once more. She turned her body away, wings scatter as she flies upward away leaving Hana alone. The black pure eyes, once again altered to bloodlust red.
Hana breathes heavily, relaxing as if she just face a life and death situation. She rushes herself to check on Sarah. But her body still cold, blood flowing from her body, she has become closer with the realms of the dead. Hana shaking Sarah's body, calling out her name until her voice breaks down.
With no hope, she prays to the gods and goddess once more. As a priestess of the Chapel of Oracles, believing in divine beings was their role and duty. But just maybe, the gods haven't given up on Sarah yet.
Purple particles constructing itself into a human form appears in front of Hana. Kiva scans his eyes around, noticing the dying Sarah. He immediately waved his hand with a purple mana flow. A small portal appears as he reaches inside, grabbing a small blue potion.

Kiva bends his legs as he approaches Sarah. He opened the bottle, pouring the liquid into Sarah's mouth. Her body becomes colder as the potion takes in. Blood stopped bleeding with her temperature decreasing.
"Flask of the Iceborn, it gives the user the abilities to freeze themselves. Preventing their conditions to move on. But it's not forever and it really isn't a solution." Kiva's voice warns Hana. She nodded, listening carefully to Kiva's words.
"Take her back to the headquarters, Doctor Amanda will be able to help." Kiva reaches his hand out, petting Hana.
"Al..ice... She had become a monster..." The fear has shaken her voice. Kiva's expression turned, showing a troublesome expression. He sighs.
- Transfer - He chanted. Purple mana immerses in around the atmosphere. Allowing Sarah, Hana and the young glasses girl to dissolve into purple particles of matter.
Kiva stood up as his body becomes purple matters once again. Vanishing towards the screaming voice of Alice.
Alice aimlessly hunting, massacring everything she sees. Blood all over her body, with her bloodlust aura spreading fear to the monsters around her.
She arrives at the entrance to the second floor, with the dead body of an ogre in her path. She rips the limbs of the dead meat apart and consumes it into her mouth. The arm of the ogre became dark particles of matter as it enters Alice's mask.
The goblins and other ogres stood in silent, opening a path to the second floor for her as if they could have communicated to each other through fear.
Alice enters the second level, a human appears to her vision. Tall, blond spiky hair, white skin human with casual white v-neck, blue denim jeans, white sports sneakers and a long dark green jacket on. The clothing brand new as if he just changed them.
He turns his head noticing a presence coming from his back. He steps forward turning his entire body in Alice's direction, positioning himself on guard.
"Who are you?" King questioned.
With the mask covering her jaws, she could only reply with a roar. She launches herself forward, attacking with her claws.

King sidesteps dodging the metallic claws as he grabs Alice's wrist with both of his hands. Turning his body with his feet, throwing Alice on to the ground as he bends his own body over. King immediately crunch down, strangling her neck with his right hand. While holding to Alice's wrist with his left.
"Who are you?" King repeated his question in a more serious tone.
Alice roared once again, struggling to release herself. She flung her legs upward, striking King's knee. Forced to block the leg with his right elbow, retreating as he jumps backwards.
Alice lifts herself up, lunging herself towards King with her claws. One strike after another, as her agility increases, the claws comes closer and closer. King barely able to dodge them.
From tilted his body left to right, seeing the claws coming in contact.
He chanted - Lightning Pursuit -
Sparks emerged from his feet, as he dashes backwards with lightning speed. Alice lunges forward but only able to hit the air. King's body now full of sparks, he kicks with his right leg, dealing a direct hit below Alice's chest. Alice smashed into the sky, as King leaped with another step following her.
King rose his left arm, forming a fist and smashing it forward with the chanting - Thunder Fist -
Alice spread her wings as it flaps with the wind. She closed her arms together forming a cross. Blocking the fist with her claws. The metallic claws break into pieces as the pressure forced her into the grounds. King dashes forward again, once he lands on his feet.
Alice lifts herself as she jumps into the sky, with her wings wide open she glides against King. They clashed once again, broken claws into thunder fist. Cladding with each other, one strike after another creating a force of pressure impacting the second floor.
Monster against monster, none of them backing off. None of them able to stop, one mistake could be fatal.
The sound of giant footsteps can be heard.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
As the vibration closes it's distance, a figure can also be seen.
Alice and King sense the presence and aura coming from a distance. They both turn their heads. In their vision, a 5-meter giant ogre has appeared. He roared. The pressure of his voice disrupted their battle, with a new and fearful strong enemy appearing, they have no choice but to consider this monster into their battle.
Every step he takes, the earth shakes. The green ogre reveals it's deadly jaws, with two demonic horns on his head and bloodlust eyes exactly like Alice's. With a body full of tinplate amour and a butcher's blade on his left and another steel made war hammer on his right. He jumps into the sky, rising his two weapons with his arm, then striking them as he falls.
Alice and King both dodge the weapons, Alice spread her wings as she glides on to the ogre. Her broken claws come into contact with the tinplate amour only managing to scratch it. King ran to the side of the ogre's left leg, striking his lightning but dealing no damage either. The ogre roar again, but this time it came with a laughter. "Humans. Foolish. Meat." The ogre's dark voice reaches into their ears.
Alice with her unstable mind charges once again, but this time. The ogre smashed its war hammer on to her. Alice fell into on the ground causing another small earthquake. The colour of red can be seen through the black mask of hers. Her black scales shatters, dissolving into black particles leaving her naked on the ground. Her black hair becomes partly silver as her eyes turn back to gold and black. Her eyes wavered once again, with her losing her conscious and fainting into darkness.
King immediately took off his green jack and threw them onto the naked Alice. He steps forward with injury all of his body and his broken right arm.
King grins at the ogre with his calm and serious voice he declared. "You are next on the chopping block"
