CHAPTER 22-THE WAR PART IV

Oviera's POV;

All day I've been hearing a solemn hum in my head. What could it be?. Could it be the power in me trying to speak. It left me puzzled, but I had enough time to snap out of that thought and block an attack from one human soldier. Sliding my sword across his, I sent sparks into his eyes before beheading him. I felt a tingling sensation from behind, turning around to look at what could be the problem, I saw a soldier I thought I killed earlier. He was charging at me, I prepared my twin sword ready to fight.

"Kiesher, we have a problem here." A soldier called out to me, pointing to the region which orkagor had been ordered to command.

"What is the matter?." Taking my eyes off the approaching attacker as I noticed a super soldier had taken note of him.

"Orkagor. Orkagor is dead." He sounded like he could not believe his own words. And so did I. Orkagor was a transcendent as far as I was concerned, he wielded the axe of a god. Begging the question, who could have killed him.
I turned to meet the eye of the soldier who came bearing the bad news and putting my hands on his shoulders, I fixed my eyes into his.

"This must not leave this ground. If the other soldiers know there will be panicking and that might cost us the war." He nodded and headed towards his hoovier and galloped away.
Taking my focus back to the battle, I could hear a loud cry from the previous spot I was headed. A soldier was mourning his befallen comrade, a soldier was once on my nerve.
I couldn't care less, the mourning soldier would soon be mourned.

Him. Its him.
I turned round,  no one was behind me. Who could be talking to me.
It's strange. Could it be the power.
"Hey weirdo, if you wanna say something come say it to my face." I said into the air and to whosoever was listening.

Him. It's him. Draco corde.
My heart stopped for a moment, then my hands began to glow and I could feel power surge out of me out of nowhere a glowing sword was in my hands. With my eyes glowing blue, my eyesight become sharper and had more focal range, meaning, I could see any object from miles away.

Crack.

In the midst of my self admiration, the sky had been turned blood red, and it was caused by light projected at it. Tracing the light, I saw it came from a body lying not far from me.

I could feel my jaws drop and sweat rush down my face as I watched the being take full transformation.
His hair became as black as night while it swept to the back of his head down to his hips, his skin was glowing black and in his hands were chains that bleed lava.

It seemed to be focused on the super soldier before him as he spoke in a distorted voice. With a swing of his chains he took of the legs of the giant soldier and buried it's blades into his head.

Him. Its him. Draco corde.

This voice thingey was already getting on my nerves. Looking down at the sword I had in my hands, I looked forward to what seemed as my opposition and I could only have to my own individual skill to come to my aide.
Placing my left forward to attack and then...
Fwoosh.
I found myself right in front of this strange creature, leaving blue dust in my previous location.
We locked eyes, staring into those red pupils of his sent chills all over my body. Everything seemed to be happening in slowmo.

"Shit." Ducking his hot blades weren't an easy task as he swung them as if they were an extension of his body. Without giving a space to breathe, he relentlessly swung his blades aiming for my head. Being on the defense wasn't my thing.

Let me help you. Let me.

The voice again. What does it want now?. This man before did not seem like a transcendent that has been prerecorded. He was more like a dragon.

Let me help you. Let me.

He came at me again but this time I used my sword to deflect his blades and sprung at him aiming for his chest. But I paid dearly for it.
He sent a punch right to my jaw and I could swear even the rocks around us were affected by the effect of that punch.
Flying miles away and crashing into a large rock, I could feel my strength sapping away.
He stood up and placed his blades in his hands. From slow steps to jogging and then pacing towards me, he began to advance. Probably to end this. To end me. Lifting himself to the air, he positioned his blade for the kill.

Let me help you. Let me.

"Alright, help me already." I felt an impulse in my right hand, it was glowing more than usual. Without my control, my hand positioned itself towards him and a gush of blue light left my palm and went straight to him, sending the opposite direction.

"Wow, this is cool." Holding my sword in one hand and the other glowing, my confidence returned. The injury in my mouth had heal.

"Hmm. Is that all, red queen?"
With those I froze. How did he know about the red queen?, has my father visited him or... The hooded creature.
What was that dude planning?, I could only hold that for a second as he rose to strike again. Shooting another beam at him which he deflected with his blade leaving him defenseless and open i sent my sword to the side of his scale covered body, it sent him flying again.
When he got up I could see the anger his face, all he wanted was to reap my head off. He sent his chains towards me again but I ducked, so it got stuck at a rock behind.
"You can't keep doing that, I already..." As he pulled the chains a enormous amount of rocks began to rain .
I tried to destroy them with blasts of my beams but the were so much and I also tried to avoid attacks from my opponent. But he got me. With both hands occupied with trying to save me head from being crushed, he speared me, I felt my guts shrinking as I finally landed creating a crater.
He then landed right on top of me, his hair now covering his face I noticed for the first time that he wasn't with blades.
He sent a punch right to me, now this was going to hurt.

Fwoosh.

I was in mid air, hovering over him. Sending blue dust on his face,I saw the puzzled look in his face as he quickly sprung at me, almost flying.

Fwoosh.

I got under him. Grabbing him by the legs , I sent him down to the ground creating another crater. I landed roughly though but more damage had been done to me than to me.
With my head feeling dizzy, my body started to feel heavy.
I knew it was time to end this.
I summoned all the power in body to my right hand making it glow like the sun.
Taking a peek at my target, I could see he had no counter for this. Wait. His chest began to glow bright red and so with his cheeks.

This is your last shot. Your last.

And hell yeah I was gonna make it count. And then I fired.

"Arghhhhhhh." I could just scream endlessly as the mighty beam of power left me. But boy was his fire hot, the rocks around us began to melt, the trees burn. 
And then boom.
We went opposite directions as the vicinity was entirely destroyed.

Damn you. Damn you.
Slowly I lost consciousness.
