Chapter 22

Jung JoonYoung's Sympathy gives me chills and makes me feel xx

They ran back to the clearing, Izzudin on the lead. When they arrived they were met by a puffy eyes Lily and a pale Zulfikar. They were sitting side to side near a big tree.

They looked up to the group as they arrived. Zul met Izz's eyes.

"She's gone." He croaked and Lily started to cry again.

Izzudin turned to his side as his eyes started to get blurry by the tears. Miezza patted his shoulder to comfort him, but she too, was crying silent tears. It was exhausting. People kept passing but the attack didn't even cease a bit.

Now they were down by another member, they only had six members and two leaders.
Miezza looked around.

"Where are the Numbers?" She asked quietly. The constant tears were draining her energy.

Zul looked at her. "Lissa died. Number Two killed her. Her own father." He answered. Hisham and Noorizan wore a clear shock on their faces. Jyra nodded solemnly.

"No wonder I heard about it before..." She trailed off.

"Apparently her father had the power to drain magic. Alex and Dylan has no more magic when we arrived-" his voice stucked in his throat while he was reliving the memory in his head. Who knew, it was the last time he'd ever seen Sheronica or hear her voice.

"So I told them to leave." He finished, trailing his eyes to Farra whose eyes were equally red.

She nodded. "It was never their fight anyway."

"Listen, I know we're lacking more people than we used to. But our friends would want us to finish this war without them. They would want us to live." Farra said. "We are going to win, I'm sure of it." She added, and Hisham gave her a small smile.

"Now let's go and kick some butt."

They were at it again, kicking and draining their energy on killing as much hooded creatures as they can. They faced difficulties in killing the massive army because the creatures knew exactly what their powers were and each of the Alphabet's specialities.

"They know about us." Jyra said between gritted teeth. They were now scattered because they lack in number. Some of them even fought alone.

"Yeah." Lily breathed as she ducked from an attack. She released another shot of fire balls but she was tired so she missed the head. In result, the creature stood up again, its broken limb grew again. Lily grunted loudly.

"I can't take this anymore!" She screamed. "Jyra, get down!"

Jyra turned at her briefly, forehead crunched in confusion until she figured out what Lily was going to do. Her eyes widened and she crouched on the ground, head down.

Lily screamed as she threw her hands open, her veins were popping out of her neck and hands. Instantly, a bright light emitted from her body and it exploded, sending the everything in the area bursted in fire.

She dropped on her knees, her hands on the ground as she panted. Jyra brought her head up from the ground to Lily.

"Are you okay?" She scrambled up to her feet and jogged to her friend, she helped her up.

"I'm fine. A bit tired, that's all." Lily replied between lungful of air.

Jyra grinned. "I've always known you have it in you! You killed like, fifteen of those beasts in one go! Right on, sister!" Lily smirked.
