Minho charged forwards, his steps leaving smoke and ash behind.
Chan and Changbin charging forwards as well.
Arachme materialized as ash covered the floor. Blood and scales flew around. The young demigods stopped dead in their tracks.
She opened eyes as a head came her way. Her hands felt the cool surface as it turned to stone turning into a monumental piece of the temple.
Her gaze went up as the young demigod fought the beast. His movements were fast and precise even if the rage covered his every sense. From every angle, Minho was better than his father.
"I recommend you apprehend for a moment," she said.
Arachme moved her fingers as the head collided with the ground. Black smoke coming out the mouths of the severed head as the poison drained from their teeth.
"Make sure to do the worst you can," she told them. "This beast better die under his hand, however"
Chan and Changbin stared at the witch. Minho's blades hissed in response.
"Let him kill his father one last time," she said.
The boys nodded as they launched for the beast.
The young demigod was too infatuated with his task at hand, that he didn't notice the poison just slip through his fingers.
Arachme took a deep breath as she looked at the centerpiece. Ares' head seemed to stare at his son. Judgment and disgust clear even if it was a rotting pile of flesh with no power or control. Just a piece of memory deserted to a town of death and salt.
She moved away from the fight towards the stairs. Towards the deserted child.
Jisung and Seungmin came running into the temple, arrows flying into the beast's eyes as the other cut away their head.
Chan launched his fist down into the ground. A surge of electricity attacked in an array of sparks and fire.
Changbin turned his body and launched his sword into one of the wounds.
Minho screamed as his blades extended away from his body and cut 4 heads clean off.
A show of all types of colors and horrors fell as the body slammed against the ground.
The two demigods landed as the blood spilled in buckets.
Around the room laid dozens of heads, all turned to stone by none other than Medusa's power.
"Woojin found the head!" Felix said as he approached the scene.
"He better have," Jisung said as he looked at his friend before assessing the other children.
Minho stared at his father's head. A surge of relief coursed through his veins as the monster laid still.
Hyunjin ran inside as he went past to reach Jeongin. Something suddenly felt very odd.
The monster began to twitch as the sound of hissing came out of its body. It was melting.
Minho lowered his eyes as a sticky substance leaked from his weapons.
Hyunjin came up running, his face pale and absent.
"Jeongin is not here," He said in between breaths.
Minho gripped his blades tighter.
"Arachme" Chan said as all of them made a run outside.
All except Felix. His eyes centered on the jewel. The held his hand out and grabbed it, his skin filling with chills as the surface was cold. A bright green shined as the monster finally turned into stone.
He closed his hand and placed it in his pocket before running after his companions.
Arachme took Jeongin's hand as she guided him out of the city through the tunnels of his coven.
The boy's eyes were wide in wonder.
"You are safe with me," Arachme said with a soft smile.
Woojin stood by the horses as he held onto the gates.
"The witch took him," Minho said.
His appearance was much worse than what anyone would ever expect. His body was dripping in blood, salt, sweat, and even the beast saliva.
"She is in her way North," Woojin said. "She took his through another exit"
Everyone paused.
"We don't hold his power until we find the Carrier of the Gods" Woojin said as everyone seemed to curse the situation.
Felix arrived as he closed the gates. The loud sound of grunts and groan following him right away.
"We better go," he said as he ran to his horse.
"Where are we going!?" Hyunjin asked.
"The Lagoon!?" Changbin asked.
"Woojin!" Chan called.
"We are going to Athena!" He answered, doubt lacing his words as they rode fast. "We may find answers inside my mother's chambers"
"What!?" Jisung yelled in protest. "You want me to die!"
"No!"
"Then why am I going there!?" Jisung said, "You know how much my father hated her!"
They came out to the beach, running even faster as the children moved.
"You'll be fine!" Woojin yelled.
"Not inside Athena's womb!"
"For the love of every sacred thing!" Chan said. "Decide!"
Jisung scowled as he went in front.
"You want to arrive in Athena, you better get your feet moving," Jisung told Woojin.
"Guys!" Felix called out.
Everyone turned only to see Sparta falling to the ground. Minho hissed as his blades burned.
"Better get moving before our weapons start killing us," Changbin said.
"There's a problem," Woojin said looking forward. "My mother doesn't accept weapons"
"What!?"
"Any weapons carrier may not enter my sacred grounds," Woojin said. "That's what she said when Ares attacked."
"Can we leave them behind?" Chan asked.
Changbin and Minho charged a look with Seungmin.
"We can't," Minho said. "These things are taking over our power."
