Hyuga gleefully challenged that statement, sending Sehki flying so deep into the walls each time he tried to get past the magnetic circle, his shadow had to brace his body for impact. The walls expanded the more the Prince of Shadows got flung away.

Remember we can't waste too much energy. If we have to rescue Xia, we need enough Cosmic Mana in case we fight her father. Calypsa was dead serious when she said that. The damage should be enough.

Ainsley watched his efforts. "Cal, the magnetic field, can only work within his field of vision. If we strike from above," looking up, "but the ceiling's in the way."

Calypsa noticed Sehki was smiling. "I think he has an idea."

After Hyuga laughed, forcing Sehki to spin and toss into the others, the young prince landed near an annoyed Rigal and Taylor. Upset, the air heir punched two fists of winds that spun around the field and flew back at him, only for Taylor to summon and enlarge his body of water to shield them all.

"Thanks man."

"Always. No Saiban smug is gonna harm you on my watch."

Sehkki tried raising an eyebrow, only for it to hurt and make his head spin. Then, watching the two men remind him of their typhoon encounter that suffocated and nearly submerged him.

That's it! "Rigal, could you make a tornado around the field?'

"With what? I don't have enough air down here for an Airstrike Stream!"

"Don't waste that much magic," whispering his idea to him. "That's all we need."

Hyuga sneered. "Nothing you do will work!"

"We'll see about that!" He dashed in, forming dark claws around his arms, while Rigal's dropped a field of spinning air directly around the magnetic field counter clockwise to Hyuga's rotation. Hyuga seemed unconcerned until Sehki jumped on, flying and holding around as he pushed onto the wall of the revolving forces.

But Hyuga's breathing grew heavier as his hands started to waver constantly circulating while Sehki ensured the wind around him would never fade, rising up the field, touching and stabbing the field, forcing the Rising Twelve member to raise his hand to focus.

"Now!"

Taylor pushed himself towards the bottom while Ainsley contorted rubble from Sehki's debris towards him, which smashed at the top as Hyuga coughed up the dust around him.

The drop in his hands were enough for the weakened space at the top enough for the estranged prince to launch fireballs the Byxis user focused to stopping before a gust from Calypsa's Air Pump spread his focus far enough for Sehki to dive down and wail on him with a barrage of strikes.

Hyuga attempted to repel his arms away but Calypsa slipped under her flirtmate, whacking him up to the ceiling and blowing said partner upward, kicking him into the upper walls.

The young Saiban student barely picked himself up when the person he taunted sat next to him.

"I'll curse you for the rest of the afterlife!"

"Relax with this pointless melodrama! I ain't gonna kill you," flicking him in the head. "I'm the villain who broke in, you're the hero who valiantly fought me off with your life."

Hyuga smiled. "And I win," cut off as Calypsa chopped his neck, knocking him out.

"He's definitely grateful President Hinata chose him- a bit too much."

Sehki apologized to the unconscious body before moving around, looking around the rooms for Flint in, until they reached the second floor, finding a jailer electrocuting two figures with a giant assortment of chains around them.

"An Andromeda StellArts user?"

Calypsa tapped on a twin colored mask oddly similar to Hague before the guard noticed their arrival.

"You're supposed to be gone!"

Her eyes leaned to the cell, her Lynx powers spotting a high concentration of negative energy. Sehki took that to dash forward, grabbing the Aquila powered cord with a earth-infused kicked to the jailer's body into the wall.

"Xia?"

The two bodies made him double take.

"Vena? Vital?"

Both of them had whips, scars, and marks over their body, barking sparks out from their mouths.

"Hold on," using his powers to snatch the key and free them, as the jailer smirked.

"You'll regret that."

Beige energy spiraled around the siblings, silencing their screams with their bodies cracking, glowing, and bursting colorless energy, mutating them into giant and smaller quadrupedal beasts slashing at Sehki when Calypsa full body tackled him away.

"They're?"

"DeVoids."

Taylor's head started pounding at the sight of this while Rigal was too late to blast away their container, Arian Tame quickly formed chains around Vena and Vital's forms, cultivating the outline of another giant hellhound between them engrossed in fire to Ainsley's surprise.

"Major, Minor, and she made the splitting image of Venatici? He used them as test subjects?"

"They failed just like you all did before," giggling. "Now they've been trained to fight to surpass you mistakes! Sick em!"

Calypsa tightened her staff's grip.

"I knew he would punish them, but not this far."

Sehki covered the pain in her voice, adding to his grip.

"Then we'll free them, together."

Taylor shook his head. "Are you suggesting we free them? We need to focus on Xia, besides these guys tried to kill you."

"First of all, every single member of our Inner Circles but Lorena and Cree have tried to murder me. Hell, one of my own father's tried that, the blonde should not be calling the pee nasty!"

Candy sneezed as the Shadow Brawlers oversaw both campus and their leader's movements.

"Second," as Damien popped out of his clothes.

"They took care of him," who was also eager to save his fellow owners. "They can't have joint custody in that state. Dame, ready?"

Damien barked with confidence, climbing on top of Sehki and growled at Arian in defiance. Calypsa ran side by side with him, whispering Perseus, gaining a sword and sickle extension to her staff and wings around her footwear.

The two jumped forward to confront the three figures winding their heads back with fire permeating through their breath.
