Terror

Chapter Twenty-Three

Ashley stared at them with a feral grin, her head cocked to the side. "You two are idiots for thinking you could save them," she taunted.

Cassandra stared in shock, tears streaming down her cheeks. The mutant child can be a real pain when it comes to trying to defeat her.

Those two girls with super speed and ice abilities were now dead, which was great. One of the girls had blood soaking her shirt, while the other had blood dripping down her back.

"Wow, I'm so cool that I killed people. Nobody can defeat the big bad god," Divina mimicked. "Look at me go."

How dare Divina mimic her actions for what she achieved? It gets her that much closer to killing the rest of these tiny humans, walking out into the world to create her own place.

Suddenly, Ashley felt a tight grin latch onto her ankle, yanking her down with a forced that slammed her hard against the ground. Cassandra had used her invisible force to hold Ashley upside down, and she could feel the heat of flames burning through her own body.

"You took innocent lives away," Cassandra grated. "I barely have energy, but I'm taking them."

Ashley felt her own energy being drained of something as Cassandra dropped her on her head. She stumbled back, her eyes closed. When Ashley tried to use her burning light, nothing happened. She widened her eyes in shock and tried again, but still, nothing came out.

"She took away the high ranks. Oh no, should we cry?" Divina sneered.

Ashley's entire body boiled as she gritted her teeth. How could that mutant child take her powers them now? Cassandra had dark bags under her eyes and barely looked like she had any energy to stand.

Ashley had to try and think of which powers she had left. However, her mind felt blank. Why couldn't she think of any of them? Cassandra had a glare in her eyes, while Divina still laughed.

"What did you do?" Ashley demanded.

Suddenly, Divina swung her fist and punched Ashley hard on the side of the head. The force of the blow sent her crashing to the ground, landing on her side.

"I erased your knowledge of the list of the powers," Cassandra spat. "You still know information, but not your own power. That's what happens when you make me angry."

Ashley struggled to get up from the ground, but Divina kicked her head back down. This wasn't how her plan was supposed to go after she killed those two humans.

"You shouldn't have killed those humans, God. I've told you many times that the mutant child is stronger than us. It's not just about sheer power, but she knows how to use it," Divina taunted. "Did you hear the great news? I get my powers once all of your powers are gone."

Ashley widened her eyes, trying to turn her head, but Divina kicked back down again.

"Impossible! None of this should be happening," Ashley spat.

Divina clapped her hands, as if someone had won an award. "Now that makes it that much easier for us. I swear you're just pathetic."

Suddenly, Ashley saw a sparkling light running towards her direction, sparking in different directions. She held her palm out, but nothing happened when she tried throwing them in the air.

"Oh my gosh!" Nevaeh exclaimed, throwing the sparkler directly at her.

Ashley felt the spark on her leg but didn't move. Her mind felt slow as she saw four people. Cassandra was dragging the bodies to the side with what little energy she had left, while River held sparklers. Ashley didn't know what they were for, except for decoration. They can't fight with them, right?
