Eclipsed Journeys

S.1, Ep.16: Dark Confrontation: Part 1

As Ace opened the large wooden door, it creaked as they turned to the inside open. Behind it was a long, dimly lid hallway that led into darkness. Ace once again was leading up front as the group walked in. Nats and Nova looked quite nervous at each other as they followed Ace and Nova even looked back to see if Luna could catch up to them. Luna was holding the orb with a little bit of fear, since she still didn't really trusted herself with it, but shook it off her as she continued walking. Nova and Nats were alert as they followed Ace trough the hallway. It was silent. To silent if you asked Ace. All you could hear were the footsteps of the group walking in the hallway. As Nova noticed a light on the other side of it, she informed Ace.
"Over there." She said as she pointed towards it. "I see. Lets go then." Ace said solid and calm. He was ready to end this all as soon as possible.
"Are you sure?" Nova asked Ace cautious.
"I am. We need to put an end to this." He responded without looking in her direction.
"I agree." Nats said as she walked past Nova, following Ace. Nova sighed as she continued following them.

They arrived at a large room. The room was well lid as the group looked around. Nats and Nova scanned the place for danger and Luna readied the orb while she accompanied Ace. "This looks like the end right?" She asked him nervous.
"I hope so." Ace responded calm. "It is time to confront LiHa and end this curse once and for all." Luna nodded as she looked around. "Where could she be then?" She said quietly to herself.

"Well, well, well." A female voice was heard as a woman wakes out of the dark. "Look who finally made its way to the endgame." It was LiHa and a boy. "In the time I was waiting for you. I have got myself an apprentice. Meet Jarvis." She pointed to the boy. "I learned him the tricks about dark magic. Isn't it perfect." LiHa said as she smiled. A young boy with short brown hair was standing next to her. He was holding a sword as he just watched the group. LiHa walked forward as she moved her hands in the air. "I think we all know why we are here huh?"
Nats and Nova aimed their rifles at LiHa. "Any move further and I pull the trigger." Nats said determined.
"Oh my. I'd almost be afraid of you. LiHa flicked her fingers and at that moment a wand manifested itself in her hand. She swung the wand when a black ball came off and hit Nats.
"Ugh.." She said as she fell down and grunted.
"Nats!" Nova yelled and ran towards her.
"Natalie? Talk to me. Hey." Nova held Nats and checked if she was breathing. "Okay. Calm down now." She told herself.
"Okay then. If you want it like this.." Ace said angry and dashed towards LiHa.
