Chapter 23: Reunion
‘Well, I’ve had a good life. I just I wish I could have-’ Malachi’s thoughts were cut off by a ferocious growl.
Malachi opened his eyes to see Wysteria made an ice, dome shield to protect him. Meanwhile, Richard charged at Cyrus, flaming sword in hand. Jasmine and Jonathan weren’t far behind, sending shockwaves through the air and ground at Cyrus. Richard send Cyrus flying through the air, where Jonathan’s shockwave threw him against the cave wall and knocking the air out of him. He stood up shakily and dusted himself off.
“Well, it seems your pupils have come to the rescue after all, Machy.” Cyrus taunted.
“Of course they did. I never doubted them for a second. They are my students, aren’t they?” Malachi boasted.
“Indeed.” Cyrus grumbled, massaging his back from when he collided with the wall.
“Are you alright, Malachi? How’s your shoulder? Did it heal up okay?” Wysteria asked when she removed the shield.
“Yes, to all your questions. Don’t worry about me. I’m fine. Malachi assured her. “But I might not have been if you four hadn’t shown up when you did. Thank you.”
“No need to thank us. I’m just glad we made it in time.” Wysteria said, giving Malachi a warm smile.
“Me as well, now let’s beat the snot out of this guy and get back home to Regenbogen, but whatever you do, do NOT let his magic touch you. Even if it barely grazes you, you will die.” Malachi said.
“You got it.” Jonathan said, taking his place in a defensive manner in front of Wysteria.
“Good, now show that snot rag what I’ve taught you!” Malachi called and charged toward Cyrus.
“Yeah!” the four teens cheered and followed their mentor and attacked Cyrus.
Despite Cyrus’ old age, he managed to dodge most of the blows sent his way. Then he caught sight of Wysteria, momentarily distracted, Richard and Malachi managed to land a few hits on him. Richard scorched his shoulder with his fire sword, and Malachi hit him in the stomach with a rock. He recovered quickly and kicked Malachi and Richard out of the way. Then descended upon Wysteria like a hawk.
“It’s you! You’re the girl I banished to earth! How have you returned?” Cyrus asked, grabbing Wysteria’s chin and forcing her to look at him.
“M-Malachi found me a-and br-brought m-me back.” Wysteria stuttered, her entire body shaking with fear.
“I should’ve known.” Cyrus scoffed, throwing Wysteria to the ground, causing Wysteria to yelp in pain.
“Hey! Don’t you dare hurt my sister!” Jonathan roared, kicking Cyrus in the side, causing him to crash into the ground.
