X.W.P. 3257: WORST CASE SCENARIO

Finale

The group of Xena, Gabrielle, Aphrodite and Ares stood before Alti. The four slowly started to spread out and walk around he. Alti just laughed as she shook her head disappointedly.

ALTI
You can't actually think that just surrounding me like this will do anything.

XENA
I guess we'll find out.

Xena yelled as she ran in and swung her sword, Alti vanished and showed up behind her. But before she could do anything Gabrielle ran at her. Alti dodged. Ares came in from the side landing a blow. Alti staggered back a little and quickly vanished once more. She popped up behind Gabrielle and swung. Sensing Alti behind her Gabrielle ducked, dropping down as she swept Alti's leg. Alti fell and disappeared. Then there was a sudden calm in the fight as Xena, Gabrielle and Ares stood looking for Alti. A moment later she popped back up a few feet in front of them. She stared angerly at them.

XENA
What's the matter Alti having trouble? I guess all those people you killed in the name of power didn't do anything did it? You've just been murdering people for no reason.

ALTI
Is that what you think? I've been going easy on you so far.

Xena smirked.

XENA
(Mocking tone) You hear that she says she's been going easy on us.

GABRIELLE
(Sarcasm) How nice of her.

ALTI
I almost killed you a little bit ago.

XENA
Exactly, almost.

Alti sneered.

ALTI
Then this time I'll make sure I finish the job.

Alti held up her hand and used her power to rip a pipe out of the ceiling and threw it right at Xena. Xena jumped and rolled out of the way as it crashed into the wall behind her.

ARES
Ooo swing and a miss.

Alti looked at him, focused her power and lifted a transit car. She then sent it towards the god. Ares dropped flat to the ground as the car sailed over him and smashed through a pillar and into another wall. Sending chunks of rubble all over.
While all this was happening Aphrodite snuck away from the action. She got over to Luka and held up a finger to her lips implying for him to stay quiet.

APHRODITE
(Whisper) Come on cutie I'm gonna get you somewhere safe.

Luka looked over at the battle going on. Aphrodite looked back for a moment then smiled at him.

APHRODITE
(Whisper) Don't worry they know what they're doing trust me. We'll see them in a little bit.

Aphrodite heard another loud crash as the fight continued. She looked up as she saw some dust fall from above, then looked back at Luka.

APHRODITE
(Whisper) But right now we need to get going.

Aphrodite untied Luka and picked him up. She took one more quick look back and then quietly hurried back the way they came with Luka in her arms.

APHRODITE
(Thinking to herself) You three better meet us outside.

Xena and Gabrielle dove out of the way of another large hunk of metal and concrete that was hurled their way. It smashed through the wall, leaving a massive hole.

ALTI
I will kill all of you.

Xena threw her chakrum at Alti who deflected it, sending the projectile into the ceiling. It struck a pipe making it burst. Water began spraying down as Xena's weapon ricocheted back to her.

XENA
Had enough yet?

Alti just yelled as she used her power to rip the busted out of the ceiling and chucked it at Xena who dodged.
