It was mind blowing. I have never seen the extent of Elaine's power. The water bender and ice maker Chosens were nothing compare to them.
Gabby controlled their minds using his telepathic gift and made them walked inside Elaine's web of roots. They were strangled in evry parts of their body.
It was hilarious!
The crowd cheered for them. "And the winning pair is Gabby Ruzvelt and Elaine degeneres!" he announced. The crowd cheered louder. I clapped my hands and even gave them standing ovation. They're so cool!
Elaine glanced at us. I waved at her and smiled. She chuckled.
The batailen goes on. Tons of Chosen surprised us with their unique and fantastic gifts. There are shapeshifters who imitated the opponents body and I swear I almost burst in tears because of laughters when his own parsen smacked him on the head.
"Hahaha!" the crowd laughed. We're all having fun in here and I decided to put my nervous and anxiety away. This is not something I should be scared of. Everyone's so friendly and having fun!
I smiled when I felt Damon's hand on mine. I squeezed his hand and he planted a small kiss on my forehead.
"Our next pair would be the most awaited pair of all time!" Diante says loudly. The crowd started cheering and gossping. They already know who will it be.
Us.
Diante picked the red paper, the Niest Chosen Tree had bear. I forced a smile. Here we go.
"Let's give it up for Golden Young and Damon Felono!" he announced. The crowd became slightly quiet. I looked at Damon who's already lending me his hand. I blew a deep sigh and accepted it.
"Alright!" Diante yelled. He looked so proud and I couldn't help it but feel more nervous. What if I messed up?
Don't worry yourself, child.
My eyes grew big from the voice I heard. I looked around to see everyone cheering with mixed emotions on their faces. I glanced at Diante. It's definitely not his voice.
Just relax your body. This is a friendly battle.
I looked at Damon. His face is on blank mode.
"Baby..." I whispered. He looked at me and arched his brows asking what's wrong. I gave him a scared look. "Do you hear that voice?" I asked him. I sighed in relief when he nodded.
"It's an automated comfort voice that we hear inside our minds when we feel nervous. This spell is under God Hlaford." he explains. I smiled weakly.
"You're nervous?" I asked. He smiled.
"You're with me so yeah," he answered like a lover boy. I chuckled. He's such a charm.
"For our next pair!" Diante says. We looked at him and watch him pick the blue paper the Niest Chosen Tree had bear. "Oh!" he squaked. My forehead wrinkled. What's wrong?
"This is interesting," he says. He scanned the crowd and back to us who's appprentlly giving him a confused look.
"What is it?" I mouthed to the God of Classife. He burned the paper to the torch beside him and opens his mouth.
"Steve and Freeda!" he announced. I winced at the familiar name. I watched the gray haired guy and the woman walking acrossed the podium. The smirk on the woman's face brought chills down my spine.
Why do I feel like I know her?
I glanced at Damon when he squeezed my hand. "What's wrong?" I whispered to him. He looked at me with his small eyes. My forehead creased. Is he scared?
"It's her," he says weakly. "The woman on the bathroom." His face spells terror. My eyes widened. I stared at the couple in front of us Steve has a normal look on his face but Freeda is smriking like a devil. My grip in his hand tightened.
"What should we do?" I asked him nervously. He pushed my chin to his face. My pupils dilated when he smirked.
"Let's play along," he mouthed.
I don't know how and when but I found myself sitting on his back. Damon's in his dragon form. I gulped nervously as I looked at them with scared eyes.
I winced when Freeda raised her brow. "What is this? This is unfair. He shouldn't be allowed to use his dragon form. We're after a fair fight," she slurs. The crown started gossping and some even said she's right. I looked at Diante and he seemed to be overwhelmed on what she said.
"B-But!" I was about to disagree when Damon had already transformed himself to his normal form.
"Pleasure," he responds. I looked at him frantically. What does he mean by that? We'll be fighting them with no powers?! We're so dead!
"The guy had said his answer. Let the battle begin," Steve announced. He smirked diabolically at me. My grip on the sword tightened.
Oh shit!
I stepped a few steps baclk when they started running like wild animals toward us.
"Baby do the third position!" he screams and went to Steve.
What?
"Aghh!" I groaned when she throw me her sword. Lukily enough I was on my blocking position. I kicked the back of her knee and pulled her hand away from my face.
"Ha!! Hahh! Yahhh!" I screamed as I fight with her sword to sword. I wasn't able to check my parsen because I'm too occupied of Freeda.
I blocked the sword on my face and she pulled her face to me playfully.
"Bitch, you want to die here?" she threatened. I gritted my teeth. The fuck she called me?
"HAAA!" I screamed and crossed the sword on hers. I wiftly tuned around and gave her a flying kick to her face. She landed on the ground harshly.
I was about to point her my word which will end our battle when she shapeshifted to a bird.
This bird.
She went flying across the circle and I looked up to her with my swordson the ground. I ran when she started spitting a sticky liquid. I have no idea what it is but I don't really want to find out.
I groaned when I saw Damon loosing. I jumped on the air and give Steve a kick on the face. He let go of Damon immediately. Steve's a shapeshifter as well!
I pulled Damon up and we both looked at the shapeshifters couple in front of us.
"They have the same gift," I whispered to him. I glanced at his face.
"This is bad," he responds while looking in front. I followed his gaze confusedly and my lips parted when I saw them colliding like two orbs and imitating Damon's dragon form.
"Holy shit!"
