War Chapter Five: Invasion

January 5th, 2037

Rei: Professor...

Wilkersmith was immediately tackled by Botan and dragged away leaving the others shocked at his speed.

Nathaniel and Rei land meters away from Grace and Oscar while Anaira and Midas stand where they are.

Nathaniel: Oscar, we meet again

Oscar: So we do Nathaniel

Oscar was blown back by a beam of blood that poured from Nathaniel's palm and switched his attention to Grace and whistled, Grace was then shoved into the ground, and Nathaniel's eyes gained an orange hue.

Wilkersmith: Grace don't let him touch you!

Grace was immediately held down by Rei as Nathaniel chuckled, Anaira ran towards him and threw a fist but Nathaniel lazily blocked it and grabbed her by the throat.

Wilkersmith broke free from Botan and had both his hands together, and then sparks of lightning shot out and straight toward Nathaniel.

A crystal wall blocked the volts and Nathaniel slammed Anaira into the ground screams of agony were heard from her.

Grace broke free from Rei had her wings deployed and with her speech, it fired a beam at Nathanie that hit him dead on.

Rei acting quickly went straight towards Grace but was intercepted by Justin who dragged her to the floor and held her down.

Wilkersmith: Rei, why are you doing this?

Rei: Get off me, professor

Wilkersmith: I want answers now Rei

Botan jumped onto Wilkersmith's back got him into a full-nelson submission and wrestled him into the ground.

Botan: Strike Botan, strike!

Rei stood up and walked towards Wilkersmith, and from her expression, Justin saw a glimpse of pain and regret in her.

Rei: Seems like you've replaced me, Professor, did Jeremiah as well?

Wilkersmith: No one will replace you ever Rei

Rei didn't respond but her arm morphed into a crimson-red claw and stabbed Justin in the Stomach.

Anaira (Struggling): Professor!

Midas staggered to his feet and gave Grace a smirk. A smirk she knew too well, See rushed to him but soon Oscar and Anaira's eyes went gold, and with surprised revolt, Nathaniel was punched in the throat hard, and Oscar blasted Botan and Rei away.

Grace: Stop Midas!

Midas (Smirking): Nah, the only way you'll get away Grace

Grace: No we can go together, let's leave them, please...

Midas only shook his head and looked at his stomach wound.

Midas: I'm sorry Grace, I don't have much time left, seems like The Silver King bested me Eh?

Grace only shook her head while Nathaniel struggled with the possessed Anaira, Oscar toyed with both Rei and Botan before Wilkersmith stood up and looked at his stomach wound.

Wilkersmith: Shit, not much time left, Oscar!

Oscar slapped both Botan and Rei away and nodded. With his staff he taps it and bubbles appear around everyone but Midas.

Grace: Wha- NO! MIDAS PLEASE!

Midas looked at her placed a simple kiss on rhe bubble and turned back to the rising Nathaniel, Rei, and Botan, with one last smirk he bit his hand until it bled and his arm turned to gold.
