Angel Protector Chapter 27: Turning Point

Red hot lava erupted from under Sakura and surrounded her. As it cooled off, a dark spherical mass stood on the spot where Sakura was. Krysta's laughter filled the air as she walked towards the mass of hot lava. She raised her large scythe against it, but just as she was about to slash it in half, the solidified lava started cracking. The dark mass cracked more and burst open to reveal a sphere of water surrounding Sakura. Her staff was aimed straight at Krysta who looked on in disbelief.

"She used water to protect herself...unbelievable..."
"Deluge canon!"
"Flame Shield!"

Flames came forth from beneath the place Krysta stood and collided with the deluge canon. Sakura panted heavily while never stopping her attack while Krysta started to breathe heavily trying to hold up her defence. Finally Krysta could not keep her defence and got blasted by Sakura's attack. She was sent flying across the ground and was now covered in injuries as she lay on the floor. Sakura heaved a smile of relief as she still panted heavily. Her legs gave way as she fell to the floor exhausted.

"Sakura! Get up!" shouted Sera as he hit away one of Lust's black daggers.
"It's only two of us now you pathetic excuse for an angel."
"Shut up! I will defeat you!"
"Oh? An angel is actually angry. What a disgrace."
"Shut up!!"

Sera used his two swords to strike her but she use two daggers to block it. They continued attacking each other, neither one giving up. The quiet night was filled with sounds of metal clashing against each other as sparks from flew when their weapons clashed.

"You cant even defeat one of me. Lets see you play with both of us now then!"

A second Lust appeared and they started to run around Sera in circles. They were so fast that they were now only a blur. Sera looked on in shock but steadied himself, preparing for any sudden movements. Suddenly, Sera got a cut on his arm, which was followed with more cuts at other parts of his body. He dropped one of his swords as the pain went through his body.

"I can't lose here. Not when Sakura and Ayumi are depending on me."
"Given up already? It's just gotten good."
More cuts appeared on Sera as Lust laughed eerily.
"I need to do something quick...but what?"
"Wait...I have an idea, I hope it works."

"Sacre Benedicto!"
A pillar of light appeared with Sera inside it. The pillar of light illuminated the area around it. Lust continued laughing as she taunted Sera.
"Do you think that will save you?"
"It's like what you said...it's just gotten good."

Lust continued running around Sera, this time a black object was seem flying towards Sera. He easily dodged it as a second one came flying towards him. He used his sword to knock it away.
"Using your pillar of light so you can see my daggers...it's a good idea...but it wont work against me!"

More daggers flew his way as he dodged and hit away each one of them. He started panting the longer the fight drew on.
"How long can you keep this up? You can't win just by evading my attacks."
"I can't keep this up any longer."

Back at the princess' house, she was sweating a lot as she tossed and turned in her bed. Faint screams could be heard occasionally coming from her. The more she tossed and turned, the more the screams turned to cries of help and desperation. Not long after, her father and some maids slammed open the door as they ran to her side.

"Evie! What's wrong my daughter! Wake up!" screamed her father as he shook her violently.
However, no matter no hard he shook her, she showed no signs of waking up. She still continued tossing around as she screamed and cried out for help. Everyone looked on in despair when they realised how helpless they were. Her father sat beside her and held her hand firmly with his own two palms.
"My precious daughter...what's happening to you?"
"Guards, bring some chains here! Chain her to the bed!
"But Sir..."
"Just do it! I rather see her being chained then see her like this."
"Yes Sir."

After a few moments, the soldiers brought some chains and chained her to the bed posts. They struggled to keep her down but they eventually managed to chain her to the four corners. The king put his head on his palms and weeped bitterly. The other people in the room just looked on with helplessness.

Darkness surrounded the princess in this realm. She was just floating around in darkness. She screamed out in fear but no sound came out of her mouth. She just floated along this darkness, not being able to see, hear anything.

"Where am I?"
"You're in my world now...Princess..."
"Who's there?!"
"Your worse nightmare...."
"No...no..."

The darkness disappeared and a small path appeared in front of her. As she took a step forward, flames erupted from both sides with pits of bubbling molten lava. The princess knelt down in fear and wept to herself.

"If you want to escape, walk to the end of this path."
The princess dried her tears, got herself up and took another step forward hesitantly. Slowly, she continued to move forward on that small path.

Sera was now at his limit, even though he still managed to avoid getting hit by some of the daggers, his movements were now slower and some daggers still managed to injure him.
"I think i've had enough fun, I'll end this now."

Suddenly Lust appeared behind Sera with a dagger pointed at his back.
"Goodbye angel..."
As she was about to stab him, an arrow pierced shot away the dagger she was holding.

"It's not over yet Lust."
