Tbate: Kal-El

Part 31: End of the Flamesworths III

Jasmine Flamesworth POV:

It must be that secret passageway I was shown when I was a child! That must be where Father is running to!

I rush through the first floor of the mansion, and head down the stairs to the wine cellar. At the end of the main storage rack, I press the brick that functions as a hidden switch, and the wall swings open.

I dash quickly through the underground passage. I think the torches here were lit recently, I hope I can catch up to Father soon!

Suddenly, a fireball flies straight at me. I dodge to the side, and draw my daggers. From the shadows, my 3 older siblings emerge.

(A/n: what are their names again? Whatever, won't matter)

"Give up this pathetic chase of yours, Jasmine." My older brother yells. "Just let us put you, the family's disgrace, out of your misery." He brandishes a large battle ax.

"Yeah, we're gonna enjoy torturing you for acting like a genius when you were little." My 2 older sisters smirk maliciously at me, as they draw their swords.

Arthur Leywin POV:

Ok, looks like I've arrived at what's called the Flamesworth mansion.

"Urayne, this is the place, right?" I mentally transmit to my bond, as I hover high in the air.

"Yeah, see there, Kaspian is fighting Jasmine's sister!"

I look towards the courtyard, and see Kaspian clashing with a woman wielding a claymore. Just as I'm about to charge in, I see Kaspian cut forward with a strong fire slash that breaks the claymore and knocks out Jasmine's sister. Looking around, I see a red-haired woman and...Director Goodsky hiding herself with illusion magic? They're steadily taking out the mana beasts. Looks like they don't need my help. Now then, where's Jasmine?

I quickly scan the entire area with my Ranged Vision. There she is! Underground? Looks like she's surrounded by 3 mages. My Ranged Hearing picks up on their conversation.

"You were bound to lose to us, little sister!! I'm a silver core mage, and your older sisters are all yellow core mages too!"

Not if I have something to say about it!

I quickly fly directly above their position, and then fly straight down. Channeling earth mana through my legs, I will the earth apart, and break in through the ceiling above them. I kick away the mage's ax, and punch him in the chest, sending him flying towards the other 2 mages.

Jasmine looks at me, not recognizing me in my illusion magic disguise.

"Did Claire send you to help me?" Jasmine asks.

"Uh...yeah! Just leave these guys to me! Go and...do what you need to do!" I reply.

Jasmine nods, and continues running down the underground passage.

"Who the **** are you supposed to be?! Huh?!" The ax user shouts, as he picks up his ax.

"Uhh...someone." I can't think of something to say here, huh.

"Well, you're going to regret messing with us, the elites of the Flamesworth family! In the afterlife! Die!!"

He leaps into the air, channeling fire mana around his ax, and swings down towards me.

--Static Void--

I fly to above him, use freeze breath on his ax, and then shatter it with a punch. With a kick to his face, he should be knocked out.
