Ashthoren quickly rushed to help heal Loki and Thoren. "Hurry! they have entered through the mouth!" He leads them back to the town. His eyes widen as he finds Audrey pinned to a wall. Her eyes were dark with anger 'Why!?' He thought as Audrey kicked at the men. She thrashed violently landing a few hits on the men. "The reports said the female was pregnant!" The men shout. Audrey slams her head on the man who spoke. They let her go but she falls to her knees. They kick her against the wall "Look for the children! We will kill them before we kill the mother." the men laugh. Audrey holds onto her stomach gasping for air. 'why!?' He watched Thoren and Loki rush for Audrey. Ash stops as his eyes lock with hers 'Why!?' He demands an answer. 'why did our mother hate us so much!? Why does the Leviathan want us all dead!? what will they gain with the world's death!?' His mind is swallowed by his despair. 'why must I be cursed to watch my children die!?' He flinches as his thoughts merge with Audrey's  'I refuse to let my children die!' Hearing her refuse this fate. He runs towards his children as Thoren and Loki are overpowered. "Don't let them overpower you!" He shouts at his sons. "We are not as weak as they think we are!" he shouts flaring his aura in anger. "We mastered our bodies before we mastered aura!" he shouts in anger. The volcanic walls start to shake violently as his anger starts to strip the seal. Audrey looks at Ash and smirks "Loki! you were named after the mischievous god! show these pests why!" Ash shouts as his only ability at this point is his words. "Thoren! you carry my name! Do not disgrace it!" He demands. Audrey's eyes start to shimmer "Audrey! You are crazy enough to risk your life for the past! Don't let your name become part of it!" He shouts at her. Ash can see that they did not have any aura left to use. The number of enemies that Audrey had managed to slay gave credence to Ash's pride. She grabs the next man's leg before biting down on it. The man screams as he tries to kick Audrey away. Ash turns his eyes to the volcanic walls that do not stop shaking. He looks at his hands 'Oh no.' He looks at Audrey as she slams her head into one of the men's faces. 'This isn't good, there is too much blood!' He steps away from the spilled blood of his children. He turns to the tunnel 'This is not good!' He turns his head hearing Audrey scream. Gunfire echoes in the cave as the men shoot at Loki and Thoren. Ash watches Audrey slam a man to the ground before grabbing his throat. The man screams in horror as she digs her fingers into his skin. Ash knew she was not right in the head but this brutality. She rips the man's throat out before throwing it at the ground. She stands up and grins "Man, this feels so nice." she picks up a gun. She aims it at one of the men but it clicks instead of firing. She frowns when she stumbles as the bullet holes in her legs drip heavily with blood. She stumbles a little bit before lunging at the men. Ash feels his anger mirrored in Audrey's eyes. He shudders as her body starts swirling with his blue aura and her orange aura. 'what is she!?' He looks around the cave as the shaking stops. "Miss Audrey!" He turns his eyes up seeing those men from before. The men groan in pain as Audrey slams the butt of the gun into the back of their heads. "Blake! get the men to gather the scattered pages! Anyone who has a spell for water!" she shouts as she swings the gun at the other man's face. 'She's absorbing my aura!?' He watched as Audrey slams the butt of the gun into the man's face. "You heard the lady!" Blake shouts as his men land quickly gathering the pages that were scattered around the area. Audrey laughs as Loki grabs her arms stopping her from her rampage. "Audrey! Audrey!" he shouts as he pulls her off the already dead man. She turns to Ash "Sleep!" she orders in a leveled voice. Ash steps back and nods giving up his aura form before doing his best to fall asleep. Ash's aura quickly starts healing her wounds as she walks to the center of the new barrier circle. She picks up Don's fang and takes a deep breath trying to calm her adrenaline-fueled rampage. Her body trembles uncontrollably as she holds up Don's fang. 'I swear kid you look like a demon.' Don chuckles. She nods "Nobody touches my babies." she answers. Blake's men are quick to kill the remaining men who got away from Audrey. Others quickly gathered the pages of the grimoire as Audrey ordered. She turns to Ash's stone-like form and sighs 'I'm amazed you figured out how to start the recycling of his aura.' Ash praises Audrey. She nods "As long as my anger mirrors yours I can use it as my own." she answers taking a deep breath 'Don I will use you to manifest this overflowing aura.' She tells him. He scoffs 'This won't be easy.' He answers. Audrey nods thinking about what Sienna called this operation. She looks at Blake as he sends his men around gathering the dead. "this will get rocky." she mutters. Blake turns to her his eyes widen "This earth will feel my anger." she starts "This earth will mirror this anger!" she chants. "As a destroyer! This earth shall bend to my whim and will." she stomps her foot sending a large rumble causing the walls of the cave to shake violently. "Get ready for the snakes that come to attack." she shouts quickly. Blake nods "Everyone! to the cave entrance!" He shouts the order. Outside Kogen and the reinforcements struggle to keep the ships from turning over from the violent waves that have been coming from the Island. "What the hell is going on!?" Roy shouts holding onto the enemy ship. "Leader!" Sienna reconnects. "What is going on!?" Kogen demands. "The... the ancestor is rampaging." she answers nervously. "What!?" he shouts. "Mother is hurt badly and I think that's causing the anger in the ancestor." she whispers. "I... I can't leave the spot I am hiding in but, I think Mister Blake made it in time." she whispers. Kogen frowns looking up at the Island. "What is it!?" The General connects with Kogen. "We might have been too late." He groans. "Too late!?" The general shouts in horror. "General! and all members of the 12 leaders! This is an urgent report!" Blake connects with everyone. "Blake! how is Audrey!?" Kogen demands as he cuts down those who dared attack him. "Madam Audrey is injured severely but she is healing her injury!" he tells Kogen. He frowns as he lops off a man's head before kicking his body into the water. Kogen turns his eyes back to the Island when Audrey screams. "All ally fleets retreat! Al allied fleets retreat!" he gives the order as the shaking only grows intense. "Blake! what is going on!?" Aurora barks from her ship. "Madam Audrey is using the overflowing aura of the ancestor to cause the current earthquake! I think she is planning to cast several spells!" he groans. "Audrey can't use the ancestor's aura! That will cause damage to her aura glands!" Olivia shouts. Kogen frowns ready to get this over with. The sound of a man chanting catches Kogen's attention. "what is going on!?" he shouts. "Blake!" Roy shouts wanting an answer. Blake groans "Audrey asked for water spells! I think she is trying to wash away the blood she and her family spilled inside the cave!" He answers. Kogen's eyes widen as he realizes what is going on. 'There are cults out there that believe once a naga appears they can use them to bring back the ancestor.' His mother's previous warning echoes into his mind. 'The ancestors only living descendant used his blood to beg for aid.' The information Audrey had shared with him before created a pit in his stomach. 'The ancestor's anger drove him to devour the world.' His skin shivers as he feels the reality they are about to live. "Anyone that can use water spells! quick! cast a shower over the volcanic mouth!" he shouts his order. "Do as Leader Kogen orders!" The General shouts. Several people lined up quickly chanting the spells to create rain showers over the Island. The ships are suddenly slammed by a different wave coming from out in the ocean. "what is going on now!?" The general shouts as they turn their attention to the open water. Little did anyone know the only gods that had remained sealed to the day were the Phoenix, the Thunderbird, and the Naga. The General's eyes widen as the large creature comes out of the water. Its face looked human but his size and the shape of his lower body told them this was not human. "Ashthoren!" The creature booms. Kogen steps back "The Leviathan god, Ozaies." General Ammar shudders. "What is going on out there!?" Blake demands after hearing the general. "Blake, a retreat won't be happening." Troy whispers. All of the Leaders facing this Titan are all collectively shitting bricks. Kogen frowns knowing they stood no fucking chance against a god. "Blake, tell this to Audrey." Kogen mutters. Blake turns to Audrey who is focusing on her spell. "Audrey! Kogen wants to say something to you!" he shouts. She looks at him "Don't let the barrier down, I love you." He repeats. Audrey frowns "What the hell are you acting like this is the end!?" she shouts angrily dropping her spell. The ground starts shaking again. "Kogen! I did not get turned into a cheese grater just to give up on some old fuck who did not learn to mind his fucking business!" she shouts at Blake. He flinches as the message is relayed. Kogen stands on the ship a prideful grin on his face as the others hear her words. "I guess you already know?" he asks. "NO fucking shit! I have both Don and Ash down my throat right now! But this is perfect!" she grins. "Grandpa Ash is pissed off and so am I." She opens Don's fang "You all focus on getting back on the Island! Forget the stupid asses left on those ships!" she shouts. Blake turns to Loki and Thoren who step up to the magic circle Audrey is standing on. "The shores are open for you all to land! if you want to help in keeping that bastard off me I would much appreciate it!" she shouts. Kogen chuckles "Yes, Darling." He jokes as he turns to the new more exciting beast he had to fry. He grins as he turns to the remaining enemies. "I leave the smaller shits to you Roy!" he shouts before jumping into action. It's been days since he last had a rest but seeing this beast he did not falter flaring his aura in excitement. General Ammar nods "You heard Heiress Audrey!" he shouts at the lower-ranking troops. "We must keep this beast from interfering!" he shouts. Inside Audrey restarts her spell "What spell is this!?" Loki asks wanting to know what he is about to do. Audrey nods "I will combine a spell I just thought of and the spell Don showed me before." she answers. The blue aura starts swirling with her aura. "Grandpa Ash! Follow my lead!" she orders. "Don! get ready!" she shouts. 'Alright, little one.' Both Don and Ash answer. "From the sands made of Naga bones! My vengeance will roar even in death! From the screams of my brethren! My bones will rattle in remembrance!" Audrey chants as the tape on the sword starts degrading. "From their place as Stones! They look into the heavens seeking vengeance! From Her dark world, she waits for the next to peer at her! From her den of stone statues!" Audrey clenches her teeth as the spells clash refusing to merge. She frowns "From the sands made of My brethren! My vengeance will roar turning all to stone! From the screams of my brethren! My bones will rattle in remembrance! Mine eyes shall tell the truth! Mine eyes will look upon your beauty YOU who has lost your name to time!" The aura starts swirling around Audrey as Loki and Thoren follow her new chant. "From the sands made of my brethren! My vengeance will roar turning all to stone! From the screams of my brethren! My bones will rattle in remembrance! Mine eyes shall tell your truth! Mine eyes will not envy your beauty! YOU who have been called Medusa as the sands of time keep spilling! Gorgon do not see! Medusa Eldest sister of the Gorgons! Lend me your aid! For an envious god seeks to violate my nest!" The sword is freed from its tape 'It's working!' Don and Ash shout. Audrey opens the sword "My nest, my home, I offer as a haven to thee Medusa my goddess!" she points the sword up towards the skies. The ground starts shaking violently once more catching The other's attention. They look towards the island as the aura around the forest quickly pulls to the volcanic mound. Kogen looks in horror from his perch on the beast's shoulder. "Ashthoren! You finally come to face me, you coward!" The beast booms.
