Chapter 10: intense battles PT.1

"KATHY!" She screamed, manifesting herself in front of the young lady with rainwater.

"Cancer!!!!" the girl screamed in fright, knocking the glasses off her face as she hit the wet floor. Hitting the concrete sidewalk made the twenty year old zodiac's eye begin to water.

"Are those tears I see?" "Cancer" snorted, disgusted with her new master. At least her last one had a backbone! "Katherine! You've been trained to be an agent for seven years now! Get a grip!"

"But it hurts!" Katherin cried, tears falling from her eyes."I don't like hurting people!"

"Well, get over it!" Cancer snapped, lightly slapping the black haired woman. "You are a zodiac and have already been attacked once!"

A disgusting aura of inescapable dread swallowed the young lady whole as she tried to finish her plea. In helplessness, Katherine watched Cancer seemingly unravel. Cancer was helpless to protect her master as she dissolved into black bands of runic signs. Her 'affection' was forced upon her.

As Katherine stiffened, her focus was on the thin string of saliva connecting the two. Grinning wickedly, Veronica said, "Your lips are still as soft as ever."

"Ver-oni-ca." Katherine coughed, her body trembled in fear. Her eyes were drawn to the webs of shadow inscribed on other contestants' skin.

"Sweety." Veronica hummed lovingly,tracing her finger along the fine specimen of feminine beauty,savoring the feeling of naturally flawless skin. As the motherly caress continued dark runes began to appear slowly taking the will and emotions from the other brunette, leaving only a doll. "Can you please show me where Julius is?"

"Yes Veronica." Katherine said with cold dead eyes. Rising to her feet she led Veronica to a heated battlefield.

"Is that all you have?" a young man with bright rainbow eyes laughed as he clashed with a light blue haired man holding a crystal blade. The young men clashed showering the area with lights of the rainbow as light met crystal. "Don't disappoint me!"

The blue haired man sighed and sent a crystal clad fist at the fellow male's face, only to be struck down in an instant by pure light. Sliding back the clump of light shifted back into a male as blue flames ignited across his body.

"Isabella, I owe you my thanks." the blue haired man muttered as his black eyes focused on the rainbow-eyed man.

The young man wielding a sword of light began to question his opponent's words as he questioned what he was saying. However he instinctually moved backwards narrowly dodging a golden beam of lightning homing in from his left wing. "Shoot!"

A young man holding a large musket answered with a calm echoing voice: "Happily."

"FUCK!" the light manipulator shouted, transforming into a beam of light to avoid the bullets of darkness.

Veronica marveled at the battle, her heart pounding with unwavering resolve for battle.

Micha gave her a sword as a graduation gift representing her rank as a saint, and she giggled as she unsheathed it. With a sword in hand, she rushed towards the targets, her blade clashing with the glistening crystal shield. A short-lived clash cracked the sky, lighting the air ablaze.

In an instant, the blue haired man coughed half his body as the red lights burned and licked at his skin, turning it black.

"Julius!" the shadow man yelled looking at the young lady standing over the down man "VERONICA!"

"That's my name! don't wear it out!" she laughed before expertly evading the hail of shadow bullets with the grace of a ballerina. Mimicking the movements of a certain Agent,Veronica weaved through the bullets like a winding river,every gravity defying step inching her ever closer to her target. 

Sensing the incoming swipe with Qie,the shadow man let the shadows consume him in time for him to narrowly avoid the incoming sword. 

 "Come on Eddy!" she laughed,shocked at the fact the shadow man had dodged an attack when he could deflect it “is the heir to the shadow school running away?”

"IT'S EDWARD!" roared the shadow man Edward, enraged by the mere sight of this monster before him. However, before he could unleash hell on her with his swords he was stopped by a tall golden haired man.

"Calm it Edward." He huffed, turning his white eyes to Veronica and kindly asking "Why are you here?"

"isn't it obvious, Zeus?" turning her gaze to the still downed Julius her gleeful grin becoming a dark frown. She coldly declared "I'm here to take revenge and find Violet to make her pay."

"You?" Julius coughed, his healing fire struggling to heal the damage inflicted on him. "You're a weakling. A dark curse user! You won't win."

"I don't know, Julius...." Zeus said warily, his gut telling him not to engage with Veronica lest he would meet his end. "She's not as meek as before."

"Does that matter?" Julius scoffed, not believing for a minute that a dark, wicked blessing user like Veronica could beat him. On top of training with the safety commission and strengthening muscles via surgery, a second ability is added. He had almost no doubt of his strength.

Despite his confidence, the facts were the facts, and his body was proof of that. Clearly, she has gotten stronger by a large margin. It was only a cherry on top when Zeus spoke. Despite the immense pain Julius was experiencing, he was aware. He allowed himself to acknowledge the familiar growing feeling of unease inside of him.

Black haired young lady and black haired man continued to argue, both growing increasingly hostile with every word. It became increasingly difficult for him to tolerate Veronica as hostility rose between the two parties; Veronica gradually became the source of his anxiety, leaving him wide-eyed. Looking around he began to wonder where Katherine was, unaware of her twisted fate.

Her ability was needed in this fight. And to ease his anxiety. It was capable of healing the excruciating burns that his flames were unable to heal along with strengthening their powers. He knew how effective having a person like that on a team could be...

"KATHERINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!" Julius screamed at the top of his one functional lung. The scream reverberated across the domain causing many to cover their ears in pain. "HEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPPPP!!!!"

Laughing, Veronica took a stance with bands of cursed runes weaving on her skin like a basket. Her expression was the smile of nightmares as she said, "I guess I'll have to beat you guys before she gets here!"

"Good luck with that." Edward huffed creating a sword out of shadows. Zeus, in contrast to his companion, said nothing and only transformed into the golden bolt of lightning that even darkness could not touch. Pushing himself to his feet, Julius joined the fray, his body clad in an azure blaze.

The fated battle of grudges began.
