Abnormal

-Chapter 3-

-Allura's POV-

       It was a getting a bit dark as we walked steady towards Riverside Village, Aella started to whine like a big baby. I giggle as she whined and asked " are we almost there yet? I'm tired" I cover her mouth and stop walking almost instantly when I hear something. She looks at me then places her hand over the handle of her sword. Yuko and the rest of our team stop moving and wait for a few seconds. "Iris and Aella protect Pax and Maddox, me and Yuko will go check around" I say hushing Pax and Maddox. Iris and Aella agree without asking questions while me and Yuko travel and watch them from above. About 10 minutes pass when I notice a black shadow infront of Aella's group. She should have been able to see it from this distance right?         Wait...what...TWO AELLA'S?!

I jump down leaving Yuko guarding us from above and go towards Iris who is now in defense position while having both of my brothers behind her. "What is going on??" She looks at me a little worried and says " I looked away from Aella for a bit since I saw a black shadow not to far from our group and then when I looked back, I find two Aella's. I didn't know which one was real so I got your brothers away from them." Fire....FIRE! Aella's weakness is fire so she would get burne- "Allura I am the real Aella." Oh? I grin and say "Remember when you-"The other Aella jumps and covers my mouth instantly while turning red. I knew it the first Aella that came up to me didn't move at all and just stared at us with a grin on her face. Ew. "To figure me out that quick. Impressive, though you aren't going to get passed me." the fake Aella says while tilting her head to the side. "Oh? how about I take you on?" Aella says to her while pulling her sword out. "Are you going to be able to handle her all on your own?" Aella smiles and says "Positive. You guys go on ahead I'll try to finish this quick and catch up to you guys." I look at her and say "alright but I'm staying with you In case you need help." 

Yuko looks at me then says "If you guys stay back then I will too."  Aella looks at us and says " guys please-" Aella gets thrown into a tree due to an ice block the abnormal in form of Aella threw at her. "shit..that hurt" Aella says while getting up. I looked and noticed that we weren't going to go nowhere if we continued on here "I believe you will defeat this abnormal and come back to us" I say to Aella as I see her smile and say "I won't let you down." I grab Yuko's hand and catch up to my brothers and Iris. I believe in you Aella.

-Aella's POV-

"Well lets finish this up.Mimic." I say while standing up after being thrown to a tree..She giggles while spawning many blades of ice." I agree. Aella?" I pull my sword out and launch at her as she throws the blades at me. As I run to her I manage to dodge the blades but one. As I feel the warm liquid coming out of me I pull the blade out and freeze the wound. I need to finish this quick or it's going to become harder for me to fight.. I dodge another blade while keeping my distance but then in one second she disappears making me stop at my tracks..."running away?" I hear giggles from far but then she appears in front of me stabbing me with my own sword I feel blood coming out non stop, "you thought you could stop me...alone?" I grab the sword and pull it out freezing my new wound and freezing my hands turning them into blades. 

"You underestimated me." I said while I looking up at mimic, then slash mimic's face causing her to scream. "you-"  I take a few steps back while placing my sword in front of me once again. "Now you're done for." "I won't lose to you." I say. I drop my sword and start moving the air to make a barrier around us. "You won't be leaving here unless you defeat me." I look up to her and see her a bit shook. This is my chance I need to finish this before I run out of energy. I cause slashes with the wind making it impossible for mimic to counter attack...

-Allura's POV-

A wind barrier?! Aella...things must be getting serious, for Aella to use her wind manipulation..     "guys!" everyone stopped to look at me then behind me, "what...is THAT?!" Iris asked kinda freaking out already. "That's...Aella's wind barrier!" Yuko said looking at me worried. "That must mean.." I nod to Yuko when out of nowhere we hear a very loud scream. I hold my breath and say "let's not waste no more time here! Let's go!" I believe in you Aella. "We can't just leave her alone! what if she is in trouble?!" Iris says in a serious tone. "I believe she will return." I tell Iris and everyone else, Iris looks at me and looks at the direction the scream came from. "Okay." I look at Iris and nod. We start running once again to a little cabin near a river.

"Let's stay here for the night." It's been an hour since we heard the scream I wonder if the fight stopped..I look over to see Yuko with my brothers sleeping peacefully and Iris on a seat looking out at the window "hey..Iris, I know better than anyone here that Aella will be back anytime soon." I tell Iris as she just nods to what I said, I go outside for patrol when I see there is no longer a wind barrier so that must mean the fight is over. I notice someone walking towards the cabin I grab my yo-yo and activate my power to see from far, is that.. AELLA?!
