‘How beautiful!’, the ghoul mocked. ‘Do you think they’ll remember your sacrifice? Hahahaha!’ The ghoul kicked Rick away and he slammed against the wall. However, he had kept his hold onto his daggers. He spat blood and rose to his legs, the grip on his dagger strengthening.11Please respect copyright.PENANAh5OsoUlOUp
‘Before wondering about me you should think about your future. Well, there won’t be one for you!’ The ghouls came closer but one ghoul from the herd was faster and was now only one level away from Rick who was observing the ghoul close in. He swung his arms down. Rick threw himself to the ground and the ghoul’s arm wrecked the wall behind him. Rick was already back on his legs and fought off the ghoul that came crashing in him. He stood his own, grabbed the ghoul by the arm and threw him to the ground.
‘You forgot about me!’, the ghoul rejoiced while swinging his arm down. He crawled Rick’s chest, leaving behind an ugly wound. ‘Got you!’ Cold radiated, starting from Rick’s wound to his limbs.
‘Damn, so that’s it for me!’, Rick concluded. And when Rick stared to his right, the ghoul jumped him and bit his shoulder. ‘Fuck!’, was the last thing Rick uttered before everything around him turned black.

Nade was on his knees, painting for his life and fighting the urge to stay awake.
‘Is that all a Celestial is capable of?’, the angel demanded. ‘Though it seems like the demon in you is rebelling stronger than it should be normally. Well, looking at the demon who possessed you, it’s no wonder! You must really be unlucky!’
‘He must be truly someone well known!’, Nade uttered, pushing himself up. It was as if the gravity had increased for him, making it hard for him to remain up. ‘Well, seems like I will have to do it! Glacia, if you’re lucky after this, I’ll die and you’ll return to the demon world!’ (Glacia: So a half transformation! This could cost you your life. And with your current health, I’m convinced, it will cost you your life!) ‘Then it’s good! You’ll be free of me!’ Suddenly the flickering lights of the lamps extinguished and Nade invited the cold. A cold he knew all too well and would embrace every time. The ground froze, just like the wall. And the angel retreated some steps, with a bright smile on her face.
‘Now, it’s getting interesting. I am Angelica, the right and of the king!’
‘Well, Angelica. I have no clue why you told me your name. But if you’re unlucky it will be the last time you told it someone!’ Nade’s hair turned white and grew, long and smooth. His black eyes shone now in a dark blue colour that represented cold itself. Angelica spread her fingers apart and placed both hands forward, the end of the palms connected. In Nade’s right arm an ice spear formed, radiating cold and power. He threw the ice spear at Angelica. And as the ice spear cut through the air, it froze the air itself. Meanwhile, Angelica gathered light energy between her palms. And then she shot it at the spear. Both attacks met – booooo…

On the roof
The three women were ready to lay down their lives to take down this monster. Slowly they approached the man who just stood there, smirking.
‘You can walk faster!’, he advised. ‘or we’ll never finish! Hahahaha!’ Just then the attack of Angelica and Nade clashed some levels beneath them and destroyed the whole floor. And of course, the people on the roof felt the impact. The turmoil now had their attention. A grave mistake! For when they all gazed back to the place where the man had been standing, a minute ago he was gone The next moment they heard a bam. So, Emilia and Sarah gazed to the mother who had received a fist that had brought her down. He face was crushed and her kids were on the way to their mother. Sarah and Emilia shot forth. Emilia shot at the man who decided catching the bullets bare handed was the best choice. Meanwhile, Sarah had grabbed both children and dashed to the helicopter.
‘Empty of bullets?’, the man demanded. He opened his palm and let all the bullets drop. Faced with this situation Emilia simply cried out:
‘Rick you idiot now I have to deal alone with this!’
‘What do you mean? I am here!’11Please respect copyright.PENANAZDqoF7qXJD
