#3 7 Rings Of Hell

Chapter 17: Angel + Demon

The horn blows so Luke and Azora quickly bolt towards Shinra, with Luke leaving a trail of electricity behind while Shinra sprinted with a large scythe held behind him. "Who will win, Trickster Demon, or a Thunder/Tracker Demon accompanied by an angel?!" Shinra asked as he swung his scythe at Luke. "I guess we have to find out!" Luke said as he blocked the scythe with his sword.

Shinra began to split into a second version of himself, each holding a scythe. "Bring it on!" Luke said as he summoned a second sword. "Are you ready Azora?!" Luke asked. "Of course!" Azora said as she summoned a spear, engraved with holy markings on the blade section.

"Split up, I'll get the original Shinra and you get the clone... and don't underestimate his clones!" Luke said. "Understood, good luck Luke!" Azora said. Luke blushed a little, "Thanks, you too!" He said.

Shinra was suddenly confused to see Luke's reaction to Azora's words. "Wait a fucking minute!!" Shinra said, finally realizing what's happening.

"Oh God, don't tell me..! *begins to laugh maniacally* ...you two have a thing for eachother?!" Shinra asked. Both Luke and Azora blush and turn bright red. "Ohh I'll make sure I will break this romance!" He added as he lifted his scythe.

Both Shinras bolted towards Luke and Azora, swinging their scythes downward, but they managed to bolt out of the way, making both Shinras pierce the road.

"Thundering Dash!!" Luke said as he sprinted at a rapid and alarming speed, followed by the sound of a thunderbolt, grabbing the original Shinra in the process.

**Azora**

"Well, what made you have a hard on for Luke?!" Shinra asked he gestured with his hand. "That is highly inappropriate, even for me!" Azora said as she bolted towards Shinra with her spear infront of her.

Shinra swung his scythe towards Azora's head, almost piercing the side of her head, but Azora managed to summon her wings and block the swing. "Impressive, but do tell... why Luke of all people?!" Shinra kept persisting. "That is none of your concern... Holy Gospel!!" Azora said, spinning her spear around her then stopping it as it pointed at Shinra, making a white and golden flame emit from the blade.

"I've killed only one angel in my lifetime, you're not much of a challenge!" Shinra said. "And I've killed many demons like you, you're the weakest of all!" Azora said. "Looks like Luke and his buddies may have taught you how to speak like a human!" He added.

They both suddenly bolt towards each other, clashing their weapons together and causing the area around them began to shake violently. "Do you know what demons hate the most?!" Azora asked as she tried to keep her balance. "Let me guess, God?!" Shinra asked. "Targeted Holy Presence!" Azora said making Shinra fall to the ground in pain.

"What... type of power... is this!!" Shinra struggled to ask. "An angel's presence can effect even the strongest demons!" Azora said as she pierced her spear through Shinra's back, making him cough out pools of blood. "I... win..!" Shinra said as he closed his eyes and laid his head down.

"Not quite, I was victori-!" Azora said, right before Shinra appeared behind her, piercing her through her back and out her chest with his scythe. Blood began to pour out of Azora's mouth and through the hole Shinra left her once he removed the scythe. Instead of it being red blood like everyone else, an angel's blood was golden and bright.

A tear began to roll down her face and in a whisper, all she could say was, "Luke... I'm sorry...!"

**Luke**

As Luke grabbed Shinra, he lifted him into the air then threw him back to the ground. "That hurt..!" Shinra said as he stood back up. "Here comes the boom!" Luke said as he flew down with his swords pointed at Shinra. Shinra just looked up at Luke as he flew down and once Luke was about to strike, Shinra stepped to the side with one step, letting Luke hit the ground.
