As we stood ready; backing on each other, the mist still swirled around us.

"Hey there adventurers.."[Faery]'s echo linger into my ear.

Her frightening voice gave me a goosebump.

"Are you dare to fight me ?"

The mist slowly disappeared, showed her slender figure in sky blue dress, it looked like a smooth silk.

"Oh I see... you're all waiting for a game," She paused for a while, then snapped her finger "Game on."

An army of [White shadow] emerged from below, they're the 'spirit' that living in this [Aeneist] castle. [White shadow] dressed in white plain cloth, their hollow eyes stared at us, it also has long sharp nails on it's hand.

[Faery] tapped her feet twice, the army seems understood and dashed toward us.

I swinged my sword "Fire slash !" a wave of fire forming half circle, it burned their clothes, and its soul vanished.

"Just that ? too easy for finale." Tyler raised his eyebrow. "Come on, give it quite challenging." He demanded, strange.

"You don't have any idea what's coming up later" I shook my head. The clanking sound of armour and weapon came near us, the [White shadow]'s army has evolved. "Just what I'm thinking of." I murmur under my breath.

They dashed toward us, I slashed once again at them, but it dealt a little injury for them, of course that's because the armour that they wore. It came nearly in a flash, that I can't even made a barrier. This would be the end ? as I thought that, a sight of quick figure pushed me aside.

"No, it's not ended, yet...." Rango's back was stabbed by several sword, tried to protect me. "Hah.. hah.. spiky turtle.."

He coughed and blood dripping from his mouth, he let out his water aura, it formed a turtle shell with spikes. The army vanished, an let out a wailing sound. His [Health point] changed into red, as his frail knee loses its power, Tyler stood there speechless.

"No no no you must survive, please keep alive.." Tyler pulled the cork, and emptying the content of [Healing potion]. "I should be the one who's suffered this.. not you.." tears shed from his eyes. "One's death would be meaning to another." Tyler pulled his dagger from its sheath, the sharp metal was aimed at his chest. I quickly hold his hand, grabbed his dagger, and throw it away. "Iza ? what have you done ?"

"Your brother hasn't died yet and you tried to kill yourself !? Idiot !" I yelled at Tyler, he looked down. His open mouth wanted to say something, but a frightening voice drowned his word.

"I heard somebody hasn't died yet huh ? don't worry I'll released him from suffering." [Faery] grabbed Rango leg, she swinged him with ease, and throwing him out the window. He crashed it and falling from the high.

"Interweaving twig !" Tyler quickly opened his hand, soon a twisting vine growed from his hand. The vine reached the window. Lucky, he's fast enough to grabbed him. We pulled the vine, and lifted Rango. Rango weakly smiled at us.

"Thankyou." he whispered.

"Anytime.. bro"

[Faery] summoned the [White shadow] army once more, there about 30 of them, no problem. I and Tyler sheathed each other weapon, the clanking sound of sword, and the shiny knife. Rango tried to protect himself with forming a water dome around him. [Faery] look angered when I cleared the army into ashes. She crossed her arms, the greenish aura start flowing her hands, then covered her upper body, after that bathed the below body.

"Metaphor Evolver !" she screamed, her wings spread wider, she also wear a green armour with golden stripes. "You'll face the wrath of the wind queen [Faery]."

Her deep tone filled the room. She waved her hand, and each of her hands changed into crystal sword.

Dual wielder style ? Jotan uses this too.. She rushed forward like a wind. "Come at me if you dare ! sword dance !"

She spined around swinging her hand, that acted as a sword. It leaved a cut on my arm, when it about to landed on my chest, I dodge it with my sword. "You're great enough... but it just a beginning." She moved like a ballerina dancer. I distracted by her movement, my body fell, and in a moment a twisting plant grabbed [Faery] arm.But it was useless, the crystal sword lenghthen covered her whole hands. She swinged the vine powerful, Tyler fly for a while, she aimed the sword to his chest. Tyler froze for a while with his mouth open wide, blood srinkled to the floor.

"Tio ! no !" Rango screamed.

He abruptly wake and run. [Faery] shoot a wind bullet, poorly he didn't notice it much. It flashed and penetrate his chest. He flung away, and screamed in pain holding his chest, electric sparks bathed his body. And then disappeared into pixel dust.

"If I died before I wake..promise me you remember me tomorrow... cause I'll remember you." he said that, and died.

"I'll remember.."

Tears streaming down my face. I'm lonely now. Without knowing, fiery red aura glowed my sword. This is it, my last chance. Slowly but sure the aura grew bigger, and stared to coat my body. Breathe in and out, I lurched to [Faery]. "Hiiiahh" I swinged it, and the [Faery] were cut in half. Finally.
