Legendary Heroes (Mobile Legends Fanfic)

Chapter 34 | Escape

Finally finished coloring the sketch! :D I made Yun Zhao/Zilong look more handsome! He looks so much better now! <3

Also, for the last chapter. Alice is not controlling Freya. I apologize if I did not make it clear. The previous Queen of Doom is not Alice, the previous Queen of Doom doesn't have a name, yet. (In my fanfic)

Hope you guys will enjoy this chapter!

Layla kicked the blood demon by their crouch by using one of her legs. The demon let out a pained noise, their grip on Layla's arms becoming loose, which caused an opening. Layla took this opportunity to flip the demon over, making him crash into the table. The blood demon whom was pinning Clint down to the table's surface launched itself towards Layla, successfully knocking her towards the wall. Layla groaned in pain as she hit the wall hard, collapsing into her knees. Clint quickly pulled one of his pistols out of the gun case that is hanging on his belt, aiming at the blood demon that is close to devouring Layla's head. He anxiously pulled the pistol's trigger, the bullet passing through the blood demon's head. Blood spilled out of the bullet hole of the blood demon, they collapsed against Layla, their blood spilling over on her lovely, steampunk dress. Layla made a disgusted expression and noise, pushing the dead blood demon away. Clint shot the other blood demon who was holding Layla down earlier, then pointed his gun at the devious blood demon whom cooked her poor, dear mother. "I'll kill you, bastard!" Clint said, his voice nothing but immense anger for this wrenched blood demon. "I'm afraid I won't allow you to do so. Surrender now, because you're surrounded. Me and my comrades took over this little city, they're probably eating the rest of the humans here." The blood demon formed a grin on his face, walking over to Layla. He looked at her, tipping her chin. "You look like a fine dinner, our Queen might get angered by seeing a beautiful face like yours."

"Is that supposed to be a flirt? Your hideous face makes it sound awful." Layla swatted his hand that was tipping her chin, leaping away from him. "Get her, boys." The blood demon ordered, looking offended by Layla's insult.

Blood demons smashed the windows and broke the ceiling of the room, crawling inside with wide, bloody smiles on their faces. Their bodies smaller than the blood demon that desires to take Layla away from the brave cowboy. Clint grabbed Layla's arm, pulling her closer to him. "She's my girl. I ain't letting you take her away from me." Clint said, not letting panic or the feeling of threat get to him. "I don't care if she's yours. We'll get her and make her our food." The blood demon growled, dashing towards them.

Before the blood demon could snatch Layla away from Clint's hands. A large hook went through the blood demon's chest. "A hook to pull." A male voice that sounded familiar to Layla said. His voice hinting anger. The metal chains that is connected to the hook began to move fast towards a roof of a house, pulling the blood demon to his doom. Franco grabbed the blood demon by his throat once he got close to him. "A fish to kill." Franco said, glancing at the blood demon, whom is shaking in fear. "Ha! A demon scared of an old Viking? Go back to your training, boy!" Franco threw the blood demon towards a wall of a building with great force. The blood demon hit the building's wall hard, his bones cracking into pieces. Franco looked at the cornered gunners, letting a tired sigh out of his lips. He grabbed his hook and then threw it towards to Layla and Clint, landing on the table that is in front of the two gunners. "Grab on tightly! I'll help you two escape!" Franco yelled at the two so that they can hear. Layla and Clint immediately grabbed on the hook without hesitation.

Franco groaned as he pulled the two towards his direction, successfully landing them on the house's rooftop. Layla and Clint both panted heavily, letting go of the hook. "You two are crazy if you think you can kill those bloody monsters! You don't stand a chance." Franco said, pulling his hook closer to himself. "I want to kill them all, those wicked demons. If I have known, I would have saved my mom, but I let her down. I let her die." Clint said, his voice hatred at first before sounding like he is in despair. He clenched both of his hands into a fist, hanging his head in disappointment. Tears fell down on his cheeks, enabling himself to sob. Layla formed a small frown on her face, holding one of Clint's clenched hands. Her free hand wiping away his tears. "I'm sorry. But at least you got me to stay by your side." She let herself lean against his chest, resting her head on one of the sides of his shoulder. Clint's eyes slowly widened by Layla's unexpected action. Tears slowly stopped flowing down on his cheeks, a smile forming on his face. "Thank you, sugar. If you weren't here, I might kill myself right about now." Clint said, his voice sounding glad. Layla returned the smile, looking up to him as she let go of his hand. "You're welcome! Anything for a friend." She said, happy that she successfully cheered him up. Clint awkwardly laughed, a tint of red on his cheeks. "Ahaha! You're a great buddy!" Clint said, trying not to sound hurt.

Franco let out a chuckle, nudging Clint on the shoulder. "Welcome to the friend zone, where you'll get hurt a lot." He lowered his voice so that only Clint can hear. Clint glanced at him, looking unimpressed. "Shut up, all though I do thank you for saving us."

"You're absolutely welcomed! It is my mission after all. Now come, the others are waiting for you." Franco walked towards to a direction until he was stopped by Clint. "What do you mean the others are waiting for us?" Clint asked, his voice sounding curious. Franco smiled, patting Clint on the back. "You'll find out once we get there."
