Gahyeon spat the blood off her mouth. Contrary to their looks, they are deadly. Rosé wiped her lips, grinning wide.

"Is that all? I barely break a sweat!" Rosé taunted her.

"Oh, there's more. That I assure you. Stay tune." Dami lunged forward, swinging her scythe. Rosé deflected it with the sole of her boot, flipping backward and hit Dami's chin with her other foot. Midair, she threw her shield at Gahyeon and as soon as she landed her feet she closes her distance with Dami and ram her blade onto Dami's chest.

Dami despite stunned instinctively spun her body sideway to evade, tugging the handle of her scythe close to her body and turned herself into a windmill. As for Gahyeon, she deflected Rosé's shield with her gauntlet sliding under the arc of Dami's counterattack aiming at Rosé's feet.

But their joint attack failed as Rosé flipped herself forward, grabbing Gahyeon's foot. She sprung her body and slammed Gahyeon onto Dami before cartwheeling away to get some distance between them.

"Urgh... This bitch is flexible as fuck! Is she have no bone at all?!" Gahyeon groaned, getting up on her feet.

"I'm already using all my strength over here...." Dami coughed, picking up her scythe. Rosé smirked at them, biting her lips.

"No, you're not. You're only using 25% of your strength. Show me your true form. Maybe then, you will win." Rosé coaxed them.

"What are you talking about, bitch?" Gahyeon tried to lie.

"Don't take me for a fool, cutiepie. All of the High Council know about your abilities. Here, let me show you mine to get started." Dami and Gahyeon stunned by her words. Rosé clapped her hands together, her hair and eyes starting to glow.

"Odin, hear my prayer. Accept me with an open arm into Valhalla should I fall. For I am Lagertha...." Rosé growled her incantation.

"SHIT! GET BACK!" Dami pulled Gahyeon behind her and pulled up her shroud barrier.

All of them stopped by the sound of the explosion, and along with it a blinding yellow light.

Jisoo smirked at the event. "Rosé has shown her true form. I guess we should too. YUENÜ!" She called for Jennie, retreating back from SuA and Handong. Jennie and Lisa followed, sheathing their weapons.

"True form? What do y-" Jennie just grinned, winking at them. Their hairs and eyes glowed. Shockwaves blasted the Dreamcatcher off their feets, as they saw the appearance of the three changed in front of their eyes.

"You think you're special? Think again. We're on equal ground now, bitches!" Lisa guffawed.

The three donned in traditional warrior outfit; Jennie in ancient China warrior armour, Lisa in Medieval Thailand armour, and Jisoo in Ancient Greek hunter's armour.

"I know you're pulling your punches against us. Bring it out." Jennie opened her eyes, red glowing orbs glaring brightly at the five members of Dreamcatcher. But Jennie can see hesitation in their eyes. She drew out her sword and slashed the air beside her. The shockwave created from her swing was so massive it destroyed everything on the western side of them. It leveled everything on its path.

"Lykan! Something came at us! Most of our forces in the western flank has been decimated! Please, help!" Calls for help echoed in their comm. JiU was petrified by the display of Jennie's power. This is no longer a fight for the resistance. This is now battle of the titans.

"Retreat. The Empire has been defeated. This is no longer your fight. We will do the cleanup." JiU gave the order to the resistance forces.

"But, Lykan! What about Sana?" Mina inquired.
