9: Battle for the world's sake: It has begun

M:

"So it has begun," Empyr stated, his fiery gaze fixed on Umbra. Ora nodded in agreement and let out a howl that could send shivers down the spine of the bravest of hearts. The Mandorian knights advanced, with Ora and Empyr in the lead. Prussia and Ussr lead their army while Umbra teleported Poldara's cage to the castle doors where he would be out of the way.

The two armies collided and the battle for the world had begun. Mandoria stayed back with the others to instruct them.

"We will draw their attention for as long as possible while you all rescue Poldara, Empyr and Ora are very powerful, but even us spirits can only last so long. When Poldara is safe we're going to need everyone's help, especially you, Mr. Hatter."

"Father, how are we going to fight," Mandara asked, "it's been centuries since swords have been used and I don't even remember how to hold one."

"Not to mention we ain't even equipped to fight like that," MC said, "MA and I have our handguns and that's it."

"Well consider yourselves lucky we can use magic too," Mandoria simply remarked, he snapped his fingers and all three countryhumans received suits of armor and swords, as well as the knowledge on how to fight with them. Before he rode into battle, Mandoria turned to Hatter and said, "I know you may think you're not very powerful, but you just have to believe that you can, because everyone else does and the more you believe, the more power you achieve."

With that, Mandoria galloped off to join his fellow spirits.

"Come on Hatter, we're going to need your help to get Poldara," MA said.

C:

Hatter vigorously nodded, then ran along with MA, Mandara, and MC who made their way through the battlefield to reach the castle. There was no shortcut. Hatter replayed Mandoria's statement.

Was he worthy?

He couldn't remember a lot about his old self after that fatal incident when he accidentally whipped his memories in the Amnesia Anemone's reef while scuba diving. He couldn't remember all the spells he knew before. Having power? That frightened him, anxiousness sinking deep to the core. What if he turned like that other angelic entity? What if he too, became destabilized and destroyed the world?

He had no time to ponder over anything. The clocks were ticking. Poldara needed to be saved.

-"Sorry!" Hatter said as punched the zombified soldier that took advantage of his daydreaming to attack him. "Don't take it to heart!" He apologized as he cast spells left and right.

The rescue team progressed pretty quickly through the plain. A shadow overhung them. He gazed up in horror.

————————-

Umbra floated up, electric fields forming in her palms. She didn't need anything more. While she still had time, she discretely made a clone of herself and left it there to fight, then transforming into mist she snuck after the small group that intended to rescue Poldara.

-"Where just do you think you're going, B r o t h e r?!" She inquired as she took back her solid form. The electric energy divided itself into smaller orbs before she fired at the squad.

-"Where NOT related! And leave us alone!" Hatter's eyes darted at Umbra as he nimbly moved his hands. A hurricane swooshed away some of the missiles before they reached their targets, instantly dissipating afterward. The rest fell down, sending chunks of soil and grass flying around.

-"Fight like a man, you coward!" Umbra sneered at the weakness of the shielding spell.

A new spark shone in her crazy eyes as she got an idea. She recited an incantation, a devilish grin distorting her face. That was it.
