Inside the Volcano…

The group managed to reach the center of the volcano…The group began to move according to the plan…Meanwhile, El Muerto began to move…

“I will begin with the ritual to summon the Golden key…the Aztec Gods are keeping our visitors busy…I have the golems guarding the prisoners…I will expect your help, Ms. Alexa…”

El Muerto heads to the altar, Alexa sits on top of a rock looking at her phone; “You’re not my boss…and like, I’ll do what I want okay…Go do your ritual or whatever…”

“Ms. Alexa, keep in mind that I will be focusing all my attention on this ritual…if you could please lend a hand when I need it…”

Alexa rolls her eyes, acting disappointed; “Very well…I guess I could help…” Alexa continues to text on her phone. El Muerto walks to the altar, the altar has a bowl in the middle with ancient Aztec symbols, a giant crystal object facing up to the sky similar to magnifying glass that is being held by two pillars:

“My master investigated the golden keys for 10 years and found a ritual in the Borderland…He explained that in order to summon the golden, we will need an object made of gold…” El Muerto drops a golden coin to the bowl; “A genuine Spanish Golden coin from over 500 years ago…next we will need elixir that the CIBOLA tribe used to seal the Golden Key” El Muerto takes out a bottle of blue elixir and pours it to the coin.

The moon light comes down the magnifying glass and focuses on the golden coin. El Muerto extends his hand; “Next, we will infuse the elixir and golden coin with mana.” El Muerto releases dark mana from his hand into the bowl, as it slowly melts the coin; “The process will last 15 minutes…and when it's over, I will need the final ingredient…The blood of the sacrifices…”

Quetzalcoatl vs. Sister Veronica

(BBBOOMMM CCCRRAASSHHH)

The battle begins with Sister Veronica throwing her thunder covered lance towards the flying serpent. Quetzalcoatl, who recovered its colorful feathers, receives the impact, creating an explosion.

“Did I get him?” Sister Veronica looks at the sky. Quetzalcoatl comes out of the smoke without any scratches. -TCH- Sister Veronica calls her lance by extending her arm; “I guess a simple attack won’t do any damage right?” Sister Veronica makes a battle stance; “No matter, I can take my time…”

“Foolish mongrel…you think you can beat a God?” Quetzalcoatl gathers mana from his mouth and fires it towards Sister Veronica; “This is bad…”

(BBBBOOOMMM)

Sister Veronica dodges the attack with her lightning speed. “Viento Dvini; Vórtice” (Divine Wind; Vortex) Veronica jumps towards a little vortex and uses it as a catapult, she creates multiple vortexes to jump higher above Quetzalcoatl.

“Oh Senor, dame la fuerza para desterrar aquellos que han pecado…Juicio del Rayo; 300 Voltios” (Oh lord, give the strength to vanish those who have commited sin…Lightning Judgement; 300 Volts)

(BBBBOOOMMMM)

Sister Veronica gathers mana with her spear releasing lighting in the area. She concentrates it in the tip of the lance and releases it as beam towards Quetzalcoatl, Quetzalcoatl response by attacking with his mana breath. The attacks collide creating a huge explosion.

At that moment, Veronica gets distracted, Quetzacoatl uses the opportunity to hit her with his tail.

(PPPUUMMM)

Veronica falls with great speed and crashes into a golden building, destroying it completely. Adihe, who is on Quetzalcoatl’s head takes a look; “Did you kill her?”

“No…she survived by using a strange wind technique…”

The smokescreen clears, revealing Sister Veronica lying on her back; “Damn it all to hell…good thing I used my wind or I would have been killed…that Serpent is no pushover…”

“Why are you attacking Quetzi?” Sister Veronica hears a voice as she stands up, she notices Adihe walking towards her as he repeats the question; “Why are you attacking Quetzi?”

“He’s speaking an ancient language…good thing I can understand him, thanks to Sister’s Magdalena’s teachings. Sister Veronica stands up; “Because, he is a Pagan Deity that our God does not tolerate…therefore, he must perish…he is a sinner…just like you…”

“You got it wrong…the sinners are those who have committed wrong…Quetzi and I have done nothing wrong, we only want to survive…you attacked us without any true motive…for us you are a sinner…”

“Oh, really? I guess I must bring you to judgment…”

“You foolish girl, you are not mature enough to comprehend what is right or wrong…Your eyes reflect innocence and those who are naive always die…''Quetzalcoatl begins to disappear as mana covers Adihe, creating a golden armor. As the light disappears,the golden armor finishes forming. Both Adihe and Quetzalcoatl chant at the same time:

"Deity Armament; Quetzalcoatl"

The golden armor has the head of Quetzalcoatl as a helmet. The armor is 2 meters tall (7 feet), has feathers in its arms, it also has green and red feathers in the helmet. The eyes of the armor are blue.

(BBBAADDUUMMMPPP)

Sister Veronica feels an enormous pressure as the armor stands in front of her; “W-W-What is this? This mana…it's enormous…”

“Little girl, you who have a cross around your neck share the same sin as your predecessors who once attacked this peaceful land…You declare war to us…and now, you will pay…”

“W-W-What is this feeling…fear? Am I afraid?” Sister Veronica begins to tremble upon facing the Aztec God within that form. Quetzalcoatl extends his right arm and summons his large sword.

“Calm down…I must concentrate or else…this time, I will…” In a blink of an eye, Quetzlcoatl charges straight at Sister Veronica. Sister Veronica dodges the attack. -SSLLLASSHH- With one swing, Quetzalcoatl cuts in half many golden buildings. Sister Veronica notices and with her lighting speed begins to run away.

Feeling scared, Sister Veronica runs as fast as she can searching for the exit; “I can’t face that thing…this is too much…what was I thinking… I need to escape…”

“You won’t escape…” Quetzalcoatl with great speed catches up to her. Sister Veronica spins her lance and use it as a shield; “NOOO!!!” -SSLLLAASSHHH- Quetzalcoatl attacks one more time, Sister Veronica manages to stop the slash. Quetzalcoatl attacks multiple times with Sister Veronica defending, however, her lance is cut in half; “This is my chance…” -CLAP- She claps and her lance splits into dozens of mini lances:

“En el nombre del Señor, trae el juicio a los pecadores…Juicio de los Pétalos del Rayo” (In the name of the Lord, bring judgment upon sinners…Judgment of the Lightning Petals)

The dozens of mini lances charge themselves with lighting and attack Quetzalcoalt at the same time. -PPPUUMMMM- Quetzalcoatl swings its giant sword and blows away the spears along with Sister Veronica; “GGYYAAHHH!!!”

Sister Veronica lands on her back as she breathes heavily; “I need to escape…” -PPPUUMM- Quetzalcoatl stands in front of her and grabs her by the neck, slowly lifting her up; “Girl who bears the cross…you are young and naive…but I will show no mercy to those who destroyed my land…”

(SSHHHIINNGGG)

Two blades come out of Quetzalcoatl's right arm, he prepares to stab her; “Wait Quetzi…is it really necessary?” Adihe shows doubts about Quetzalcoatl’s action; “It is…remember that they showed no mercy to our kind…”

Sister Veronica cries; “I was so stupid…thiking that I could fight a God…someone please…Paola…Alondra…please help me…”

(TOC TOC)

“Excuse me…I will have to ask if you could let her go…” Qutzalcoatl hears a voice from his right, he turns around and sees a gun. -BBAANNNGG- A bullet hits the armor, Quetzalcoatl lets Veronica go. -COUGH COUGH- Sister Veronica coughs up blood; “You okay there? Bambina?” Sister Veronica opens her eyes and sees Giovanni standing in front of her; “G-G-Giovanni…”

“WHO DARES TO INTERRUPT MY JUDGMENT!”

Giovanni blows away the smoke from the pistol; “The one and only lady killer Giovanni Piedmont…at your service…”
