When the day of the fight arrived, and we all headed to the address Elanor had given me, we were met with an army of robots, and Elanor herself. She had made many changes to the metal counterparts of her body, " Astor, the robots aren't powered yet." Aideen whispered to me, and I crept into sight. Elanor's head snapped in my direction,
" Ah, Astoria, my old friend, you came !" She greeted me,
" Let's get this over with." I muttered, nodding to the others,
" Oh ! You've brought friends ! No bother, no bother at all, I've brought some of my own !" She pressed a button on her sleeve, and her army sprung to life.
My breath caught as they all looked at me, with cold, emotionless excuses for eyes. Every single one lunged towards me, " OI ! Ya dumb hunks of metal! " Aideen yelled with all her might. A few changed their focus, yet a lot still came towards me. I pushed a good chunk back, but my telekinesis was only so strong. Bucky ran up to me,
" We've got the robots, you focus on Elanor." He told me,
" Ok. " I picked myself up and forced myself to move forward. Out of habit, I removed a layer of metal from an area on her body, and it came off as easily as I expected it to. She turned to me,
" Already bored of your new playmates ? That's ok, I was getting bored with yours." She threw a punch and I caught it quickly,
" Oh please, Don't insult my abilities." I twisted her arm and kicked her in the gut, quickly taking out another piece of metal. She landed a punch in the face, breaking my nose. I managed to ignore the blood pouring down my face and summoned my dagger. I slashed at her face and neck. I looked at her. I had managed a good cut at her eye. I took more metal from her body while I had a momentary advantage, " You bitch ! " she yelled, " I can't see !" The terror in her voice broke my heart, but I knew this wasn't the time for empathy.
From then on, the fight went in my favor. I'd taken out enough metal for one of her legs ( Both were metal) To snap under her weight. Despite the fact she was nearly done for, she cackled. I looked in the direction she was, and the amount of robots piling on Aideen made dread drop like a brick in my stomach. I immediately left Elanor where she stood and ran to help Aideen. I wasn't losing her, not today,
" Astor NO !" Tony yelled after me as I saw what he was referring too. I froze as the waves of fire sped towards me, and I let out a scream.
