Warning: blood, violence

Ophiuchus's Pov
"Wake up everyone! Time for breakfast!" Everyone groaned. They should be glad I'm feeding them.

(after eating breakfast)

"Everyone has 10 minutes to get ready for the battle. Go!" Everyone went to their rooms (Ophiuchus gave them rooms. Each room has a bathroom, bed, desk, and medical supplies.)and got ready. I might seem really nice, but I'm just pretending. I'm a monster hiding in the dark, ready to pounce on the next victim.

Scorpio's Pov
I dried my hair and got ready to win the battle. Ophiuchus gave us clothes and mine was........umm..........

I'm suppose to wear a dress? Seriously Ophiuchus? I put on the dress and it was comfortable

I'm suppose to wear a dress? Seriously Ophiuchus? I put on the dress and it was comfortable. It must be a combat dress or something. "10 minutes are up!" I quickly put on the boots and went outside. I saw all the girls were wearing dresses and the boys were wearing a black shirt and a jacket. (black pants) "Good. Everyone is ready. Let me introduce my team." A girl with black hair and green eyes spoke first. "My name is Cetus." The guy with dark blue hair and skyblue eyes spoke next. "My name is Draco." The guy next to him spoke next. He had red hair and green eyes. "My name is Lupus." The girl next to Ophiuchus spoke. "My name is Pegasus." We all introduced ourselves and Lupus was staring at us the entire time. That guy is spooky. "Let the battle begin!"

Lupus immediately charged at us with his sword. Cancer and Capricorn made a force field and we began to make a plan. (the force field is sound proof) "Half of us will attack Cetus and Draco. The rest will attack Lupus and Pegasus." "What about Ophiuchus?" "Okay change of plans. Aries, Leo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, me (Capricorn) and Aquarius will fight Ophiuchus and Pegasus. Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, and Pisces will fight Cetus, Lupo and Draco." Everyone nodded and Cancer and Capricorn lowered the force field. This was it. I got my sword ready (all the zodiac signs can call a certain item.) and charged at Pegasus.

Aries, Leo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, and Aquarius's team (no one's Pov)

Scorpio charged at Pegasus and she blocked the sword with shield. Ophiuchus threw a dagger at Scorpio and she dodged the dagger. Ophiuchus made a sword appear and Leo turned into a lion and pounced on him. Sagittarius shooted arrows at Pegasus while Aquarius levitated rocks and threw them at Ophiuchus. Ophiuchus made a force field and blocked Aquarius's attack. Pegasus also made a force field and blocked Sagittarius's attack.

Ophiuchus made vines grow out of the ground. Capricorn also used his earth powers to make vines grow out of the ground. Ophiuchus attacked first and the vines grabbed Capricorn. He tried to break free, but Ophiuchus's vines were stronger than Capricorn's. Ophiuchus made the vines throw Capricorn towards the other group and a flower bed protected him from hitting his head. Ophiuchus made 10 monster illusions appear and the five of the monsters attacked this group and the rest of the monsters attacked the other group.

Scorpio almost got stabbed by Ophiuchus and Pegasus ran towards her with a sword in her hand. Scorpio used her power (blood manipulation) and slowed Pegasus down while fought with Ophiuchus. The rest of the members fought the monsters. Scorpio was so focused on Ophiuchus that she lost control and Pegasus stabbed her in the stomach. Scorpio hissed in pain as she tried to take out the knife. (Pegasus changed her weapon into a knife.) "Take that b****!" Scorpio tried to walk, but the injury made her unable to move. Leo destroyed the monster and he noticed Scorpio struggling. Leo picked up Scorpio and left her on the bench for injured people. Each person can stay there for 10 minutes before joining the battle again. Leo called Virgo before joining the battle again.

Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, and Pisces's team (Taurus's Pov)

Draco and Cetus charged at us and Cancer made a force field to protect everyone. I levitated some rocks and Gemini made copies of herself and Cancer lowered the shield. We all attacked at the same time and Draco got hit by one of the rocks. An arrow flew towards Cetus, but she snapped the arrow into two.

"Where's Lupus?" "Bathroom break." "I thought he left because he was a chicken." Cetus gritted her teeth. She tackled me and we both landed on the ground. She began to choke me and I tried to pry her hands off my neck. Her grip was strong and I felt cold metal touching my skin. Lupus. "Don't worry honey, I didn't chicken out yet." He slowly dragged the knife on my arm and everytime he did that, the knife dug deeper into my flesh. Cetus was still choking me and my need for air grew larger. I desperately kicked my legs and just when I was about to pass out, Gemini and Libra pulled Cetus away from me. I filled my lungs with air and Virgo pulled Lupus away from me by using his earth powers. "Are you okay?" "I'm fine." Cancer helped me stand up and I heard someone call Virgo.

It was Leo. He looked fine, but then why did he call Virgo? Leo pointed his chin towards Scorpio and I noticed that she looked pale. Virgo nodded and called Pisces to come and take his place. I hope Scorpio's okay.....she's one of our strongest zodiac signs and she can use her powers for 3 hours. Aries and Capricorn can use their powers for three and a half hours. Distracted by my thoughts, I almost got hit by a dagger. Lupus. Of course he was the one who threw the dagger at me. I should have known. I made some shurikens appear and threw them at Lupus. He dodged all of them. He threw a bunch of rocks at me and I barely dodged them. Just then I heard a scream. It was Scorpio.

Scorpio's Pov
Virgo was healing me when someone threw shurikens at him. One hit him in the stomach when he turned around. Virgo screamed in pain and I screamed. It was Hydra. Hydra was the one who threw the shurikens at him. "Hydra....." See Scorpio? Everyone who cares about you betrays you. Look at Hydra. She cared about you, but now she hurts your boyfriend? Virgo probably hates you. If you didn't get hurt, then Virgo wouldn't be hurt. It's all your fault.........

Virgo's Pov
The room was spinning. I couldn't move or talk. "Virgo! Can you hear me?" "Hmm?" I saw Leo looking at me and I remembered what happened. "Scorpio. Is she okay?" "She's still crying. It's like she's in a different world. She keeps saying that it's her fault." "Oh no...." "She's in the hospital right now. The doctors think it's because of the injury." "What about the battle?" "Break time. Ophiuchus said we'll start tomorrow." "Is Scorpio okay?" "We don't know yet...." No news from the doctor is bad. "Do you want to visit her?" "Can we?" "We can wait in the waiting room with the others." (at the hospital) "Hey guys. Any news?" "Nope." Just then a  doctor came towards us. "I'm sorry. We did everything we could, but your friend............" ".......is in coma." Coma? Everyone gasped in shock. "I'll give you guys a moment to process this." I buried my face into Capricorn's shirt. Scorpio is in coma.......

If only we knew that this was just the beginning......
maybe we could have stopped this from happening.
We had no idea what was coming for us..............

Part 2 coming soon 💜
