Ariel's pov:

Lluisa lifts the statue, her malicious intents evident. With lightning reflexes, I summon my sword, Xander, as I like to call it. The silver blade, a veteran of countless battles, streaks through the air with a crack of thunder, cleaving the serpent hairs and landing firmly on my grip.

The snakes' deathly shriek pierces the air, as its severed head falls, but before I can secure the statue, Thanos lunges me with lethal intent.

In a whirlwind of emotion, Lluisa transforms into a massive grey serpent, swallowing the statue whole before disappearing into the shadows.

Our swords clash with a deafening ring, Thanos wielding his long blade with deadly precision. Though he has the advantage in reach, my strength fuels my every move. We dance on the edge of destruction, my focus solely on our deadly duel.

Suddenly the ground trembles as Zekai's whispered incantations summon fought a demonic monstrosity–a beast with the body of a leopard and three heads of snarling dogs. It's crimson eyes burn with malice as drool drips heavily from their gaping maws.

With lightning-fast reflexes, I fend off the beast's ferocious assault, narrowly avoiding it snapping jaws.
Meanwhile, Thanos proves a relentless adversary, his every strike a calculated move towards my demise.

Seeking refuge in the crumbling ruins of the building, I lead Thanos into the heart of the chaos. The beast prowls outside. It's thunderous roars echoing through the rubble-strewn streets.

As the battle rages on, I struggle to keep pace with Thanos's relentless onslaught. His swordsmanship is unmatched, each blow threatening to end me. But amidst the chaos, I spy a momentary lapse in his defenses.

With newfound determination, I evade his deadly strikes, gradually unraveling his techniques. In a daring maneuver, I lure him into a trap, causing his balde to become ensnared in the debris.

Seizing the opportunity, I strike with precision, slicing through his arm with a quick and decisive blow. Victory hangs in the balance as I stand triumphant, the tide of battle finally turning in my favour.

Thanos groans in agony and curses vehemently, but now my focus shifts to the monstrous beast. With swift agility, I scale the walls, poised for action.  As I descend, Xander slices through the first head on the beast, it's blood staining the ground with a pool of darkness.

The beast's roar reverberate louder than ever, echoing through the crumbled ruins. Thanos' arm regenerates, his fury evident as a launches another assault.

"You son of a bitch," Thanos snarls, but I undeterred. With a powerful strike, I claim his sword in two, reclaiming my momentum.

We clash once more, a dance of blades and fury. I maneuver carefully, strategizing to fend off Thanos and the relentless beast. Every move is calculated, every strike is precise–I can't afford to sustain serious injuries that won't heal on time.

"If you can't handle him then I will take matters into my own hands!" Lluisa's enraged voice cuts through the chaos as she joins the fray.  Her massive serpent form lunges at me, but I deftly evade her attack, retaliating with a swift stab on her eye.

With a hiss, Lluisa retreats into the shadows, leaving me momentarily vulnerable. I stumble, my sword slipping from my grasp as the two-headed beast corners me. Before they can strike, Thanos presses his sword on my neck, offering me a final chance to surrender, but defiance burns within me.

With a swift motion, I retrieve my sword slicing through Thanos' defenses and sending him flying across the room into a wall with a powerful kick.
Im a blur of motion, I decapitate the beast, black blood gushing forth in a grotesque display.

As Thanos snarls his threats, I swiftly dispatch him with a lightning-fast strike, his head rolling to the ground in a grim finale.

"I will end you!!!" Thanos' enraged cry turns into silence as his form dissolves into ash, carried away by an unseen force.

Turning to face Lluisa's looming presence, I prepare for another confrontation. With steely resolve, I engage her in battle once more, her furious onslaught met with calculated precision.

But as the battle rages on, a new adversary emerges. Zekai, consumed with rage, transforms into a towering fiery giant, his formidable presence radiating power.

"If you don't join, your presence will only be a threat to the cult. We have given you enough chances, if you don't comply then I will just have to send your dead body to your brother!" Zekai's thunderous voice echoes through the walls, his intent clear.

With determination burning in my veins, I ready my sword and shield, preparing for the ultimate showdown, but Zekai's incarnation unleash a sinister force, enveloping the surrounding in an otherworldly domain.

As the third eye of Zekai's dark magic fixes upon me, I realize the true intent of his power. With every blast of fire and every twist of fate, the odds stack against me.

With every ounce of strength left in my battered body, I charge headlong into the fray, ready to face whatever horrors await.

For death maybe knocking at the door, but I'll be damned if I don't answer it with defiance.
