Chapter Sixty-Nine - Burnt Hair

KARA

Jessica lifted herself up, making two energy balls on each palm. The yellow color contrasting her dark outfit choice as I prepared my own purple energy.

"I'm sorry, K. I hope you and dad will wait for me in hell," she said, smiling. She threw ball after ball of energy and I shielded myself while summoning up fire on my free hand.

I slid under the shield I made and threw it at her. She dodged and came to me, pushing me off my feet. She punched and kicked, but I grabbed the next punch and flipped us around.

With the help of magic, I threw her over my head to the back. She stopped herself from rolling with her feet and sprinted towards me. She chucked fire at me and I extinguished it with water. I jumped up and forced wind behind her so she fell face first.

With quick reflexes, she jumped back up and lifted the surrounding dirt before throwing it at me. I moved it out of the way with one hand and summoned a sword out of fire, throwing it in her direction.

It slightly grazed her torso and disappeared. She grabbed my shoulders and went to knee my stomach, but I moved her leg in time, causing her to flip around. I summoned a boulder and threw it in her direction, but she dodged, flipped behind me, and pulled at my hair.

She burnt the bottom half of it off so I was left with shoulder length. I turned around and she threw the chopped off blonde hair onto the ground, "I've always hated that hair. You're a true blonde and I'm not."

I went to kick her head, but she caught my ankle and threw me to the side. My body slammed at the force field and fell to the ground. I looked up to see Jessica walking towards me.

She lifted me up by my neck and smiled at Connor who was standing on the other side of the force field, face filled with fear and concern for me.

"Sorry, didn't want you to see that," she said and threw me to the other side. I got up, dismissing every pain I felt, and looked at her. She conjured up faceless people and pointed at me. Before I knew it, they were rushing towards me.

I lifted myself off the ground and used my life force to turn them around. They abruptly stopped and faced Jessica. I pointed at her and they charged towards her. She flew above the ground and completely obliterated the whole fleet.

"You wanna play like that? Let's play."

She threw shards of ice at me and I blocked it with the energy shield. I countered by flinging an axe of fire at her. She dodged, causing it to cut off some of her hair, making it uneven.

I summoned up a big fire wolf, putting life force into it, and jumped on its back. Jessica had the same idea as she created a water wolf. Both of us, sitting on the wolves in the air.

I petted its ear to calm it down before letting it run. Jessica started rushing towards me too. Once I got close enough, the wolf read my mind and stopped abruptly and I flew off, catching Jessica by her shoulders and sending her to the ground.

The two wolves above disappeared and I punched the witch multiple times with the help of my energy. The purple air emitting from my closed fist as it connected with her face over and over again.

She suddenly grabbed my fist and forced me away, throwing me on the ground. She grabbed my neck and started squeezing. I grabbed her arm, trying to pry her off until I thought of something that may work.

'Oh, mother, please have mercy on me.'

I managed to say out the words, "S-Stop!"

Jessica abruptly stopped and let go of me. I coughed as the oxygen rushed to my lungs. Getting up, I saw her eyes fog over and silently prayed a 'thanks' to mother.

I summoned up a fire dagger, but before I could use it, she broke the command and forced the weapon out of my hold.

"Y-You...how?" she said as she backed up. I stood still and answered, "You're half werewolf. It should work on you."

She looked at the crowd around us before looking back at me. I saw a hint of fear flash by but it was soon replaced with anger. She conjured up a fireball, "It's not the end until one of us dies."

I made a water ball and nodded, "So be it."

We threw the elemental balls and it exploded. Both of us put a shield around ourselves to protect before charging at each other. She summoned a silver knife, intending to stab me, but I slid under her legs and with a simple flick of my wrist, a fire knife was floating in my hands as I moved it to stab her shoulder.

She screamed in agony and I made the knife disappear. She turned around and made multiple daggers appear before throwing them all in my direction. I quickly made an energy shield but one was able to make it through and stabbed me in the stomach.

The dagger disappeared and I held the wound, the blood seeping out in between my fingers and staining my white dress red.

Snow wasn't here so my healing was slower than usual, but Connor's mate bond somewhat helped. I looked up to see Jessica holding her shoulder as it bled.

"Jess, we don't have to continue," I said and she looked to meet my eyes. She shook her head, "I'm not giving up. Not until my last breath."

I removed my hand to see the wound almost healed. I rubbed the bloodied hand on my dress and summoned fire on both hands.

"Then let's go."
