CHAPTER 77.

  JAKE.

  After a while the witches appeared again as I tried walking towards the house with the guards walking behind me, my gaze hardened with shock as I stared at them. The guard shifted backward and I also did but slightly, looking at them in their eyes. I thought I stabbed their leader and not the illusions. I sighed as my mind flashes back, when I threw the sword the one in their middle teleported away quickly in a flash and the sword stabbed another.

  I dashed at them wanting to finish them off but they teleported to my back. I bent low escaping the knife they wanted to use in stabbing me, stretching my hands forward as the sword I threw earlier at them appeared in my hands. I swerved to the left, dodging the fire which was thrown at me by the witches, casting a spell on them.

  They were unable to move. I moved towards them swiftly and tried stabbing their leader but they broke free from my spell, they teleported away before my sword could touch them. They appeared far away from me, they snapped their hands and a sword appeared in their hands, they charged at me and I quickly brought out my second sword which was at my back.

  A witch tried stabbing me but I moved back a bit before cutting the witch's head, using my sword to dodge a sword swipe, and delivering a bicycle kick at the witch. The witch which I cut her head off earlier appeared behind me but I swerved to the right before cutting her arms, looking around my eyes, and landed on one of my men who was fighting a witch. He was about to be killed but I threw my sword toward the witch. The witch turned and saw the sword coming towards her, she controlled it and it went sideways.

  My gaze connected with my sword and using my eyes to control it towards the witch it stabbed the witch in her head, the witches combined their powers and used it to control lighting towards my warriors. I redirected the lighting towards them and they screamed in pain, walking towards their leader who was groaning in pain.

  She was the only one who was more affected since she is the real one while the others are illusions, stabbing her in her heart she moaned in pain. Glaring at me angrily with a deep breath scattered a spell but nothing happened, laughed at her mockingly because her spell didn't work, and then she cast another spell. Little did I know her spell worked, she took her last breath and died. A sword made with ice pierced into my stomach through the armors I wore from behind, groaning in pain as I melted the sword with fire.

  My gaze hardened in pain as I chant a spell to heal my wound, I should have not underestimated the dying witch, the wound was healed and I sighed in contentment. The remaining illusions disappeared immediately after their maker died, sighing heavily. I looked back at the remaining guards. They were all breathing heavily there was sweat on their faces, signaling at them with my hands to follow me and they did. I walked into the compound with the guard trailing behind me and was surprised to see different creatures in there, six witches sitting in a circular motion.

  They all held hands and there were dangerous auras radiating around them, the warriors charged at them at my command. I summoned a chair and sat down watching the fight, as the warriors charged forward towards them they were flung away and the warriors stood up immediately channeling fire into their swords. They charge at the witches again and try hitting them but their swords only pass through them, the head warrior uses wind to blow them away but it also passes through them.

  Another warrior chanted a spell and water made of rope appeared, he used the rope to grab one of their hands, yanking it and using it to drag her out. The others quickly hold hands and the warriors charge forward towards the witch which was dragged out of their midsts, the witch smirked as she saw them get closer. She starts singing, producing some weird sounds.

  As soon as they got closer to her they were captivated into wonderland. The warriors all stood still staring at her, she enchant them with her powers. She snapped a guard's neck and he fell dead, as she was about to kill the next one. I freed them all from her charms and they all charged at her angrily after seeing the dead body of the warriors. One of the warriors slashed her shoulders making her scream in pain and she teleported away before appearing beside the others groaning in pain, another witch steps out of the circle they made. I stared at her with a smile wanting to know what her powers could be, she stood in front of my warriors staring at them and they charged at her. She waited for them to get closer to her before she unleashed flames on them, she was not aware that the flames can't burn them because I made the flames unable to hurt them. Instead, the flames encircled around their swords, they dashed at her, she screeched in pain and they all dropped to the ground holding their ears as they tried to block the sound waves but it did not affect me.

  She stopped to catch her breath and the warriors used that as an opportunity to attack her, they slashed her all over her body and she screamed in pain and they all fell to the ground. She was bleeding profusely all over her body where she was cut by the guards, she teleported to the middle groaning in pain and they all healed her. She hissed as she sat down, a witch walked out of their midst walking toward the warrior.

  The warriors attacked her impatiently with her hands stretched. The warrior froze in a place, she walked up to the warrior and started touching his body making him giggle. I frowned in disgust, with just a snap of my eyes she was pushed backward hitting the remaining witches who in turn glared at me.

  They all stood up at once turning towards the direction of my warriors, they all combined their powers making the wind blow eerily and thunder flashes in the sky. The sky darkened as lightning bolts rained on the guards and they tried shielding themselves with their power but it was of no use. I created a shield around them not wanting to lose more warriors. The shield protected them from the lighting bolts and by the time it stopped all the witches were already drained of their powers, they were all breathing heavily due to the excess of power they used.

  A smirk formed on my face as I made my way toward the witches who tried teleporting away but they were unable to move, one conjure fire ring her hands and pointed it to me but as soon as the fire touched my body. My whole body became consumed by fire and my armor was not burnt, walking towards them I roasted them with the flames on my body. They screamed in pain and agony which seemed like lyrics to my heart, their body soon turned to ashes and it evaporated into the air. The winds blew the ashes away and I walked forward towards the house with the warriors trailing behind me, staring at the house with a smile on my lips. I brought forward my arms and I conjured a powerful blast and I channeled it towards the house, the house shook vigorously to its foundation.

  I waited for some while and I was getting impatient that Brittany hadn't come out. After a while, the door opened and it closed back on its own with a loud bang. I frowned suddenly when a heavy wind blew causing the dust to rise, straining my eyes for me to see clearly. The wind cleared up and I looked at the door, there was Brittany's mother Jane standing at the entrance of the door in weird-looking armor. She glared at me angrily and I returned the glare, we stood there glaring at each other for seconds.

  "What do you seek here?" she asked, glaring at me and I sighed looking at the dark sky.

  "Your daughter, she has something that I have and she did not release it to me" I said and she rolled her eyes.

  "And what may that be" she questioned, staring at me and I smiled.

  "I want to collect the forbidden leave from your daughter," I said with a smirk plastered on my face and she groaned glaring at me daringly.

  "That can't be given to you even if you bring the whole world down," Jane said and I hissed angrily, this is also what Brittany said to me.

  "Don't tell me she is such a cry baby to let her mother fight for her" I said sarcastically and I laughed while she fummed in anger.

  They all knew what I could do but they ignored it. My eyes glowed brightly in anger.

  "I will collect the forbidden leave from her by force since you did not release it to me now, you will face the consequences," I said and looked at my warriors whose sword was brought forward readily.

  "Charge!" I shouted and they all charged at her, stretching my hands toward the ground. I levitated up and I watched the view, my gaze was on them as they fought her. The guards charged at her speedily and she cast a spell as quick as she could, a long sword appeared on her hands with pointed edges. She uses her sword to slash a guard and he shrieks in pain, she bent low escaping a sword swipe. She narrowly escaped a guard who tried cutting off her head, she raised her head, and anger was vividly written on her face. She dashed forward towards the guards and she dodged their various attacks, the clang of metals could be heard as she counter their attack.

  She pushed them backward with her powers and the guards and they fell to the ground, the guard stood up and charged skillfully at her. She cut a guard's arm and she slid under their feet cutting their swords, she did a high flip landing amid the warriors. She did her sword in a rotating manner, the sword got some while the others dodge it narrowly.

  There was a smirk plastered on her face as she slaughtered the guards, one of the warriors cast a spell and her sword became so heavy that she had no choice but to stop using her sword. As the guards moved closer to her, she did a combo kick and the kick landed on a guard's chest, and the guard fell. She swerved to the left dodging a sword swipe and she slid under the ground hitting a guard between his legs, the guard fell and she hijacked the guard from the ground with a punch.

  She has a satisfactory smile, as a guard slashed her from behind with his sword and she shrieked in pain as her stomach bleeds. She punched the ground and forced them all away, she winced in pain as she nursed her wound. I smiled as I watched her, soon I would collect the forbidden leave and Carlisle would fall in love with me. I was close to getting the leave and I will make sure I get it at all costs. Jane's wound was healed and she was fighting the guards angrily.

  She took her sword from the ground which was blazing with fire and charged forward at the guards, she slashed a guard using her sword. The guard screamed in pain but she ignored it and she delivered a bicycle kick at a warrior who was close to her. She threw her sword and it started spinning in the air, there was a thunderstorm. Watching her with amusement as the sword starts rotating circularly, the sword splits into ten and it moves forward towards the warrior.

  The warriors seeing this created a shield on their fronts but the sword penetrated the shield, suddenly her sword was frozen together with the guards. I burnt the sword using my eyes and she looked at me with a killer look making me smile, she turned to the guards just in time to evade the fire thrown at her. She raised her head to the sky and the heavy wind started blowing, and the rain started pouring down heavily. All the guards were wet and she connected her hands with the water on the floor, all the guards became frozen up. She looked at me with a smirk and tried charging towards me when she was dragged by a guard, looking back she was surprised when she was yanked to the ground.

  I had released them immediately after they were frozen by her, my gaze connected with the sky and the rain stopped. Returning my gaze to them she was handling the guards well, she twisted a guard's neck and the guard fell to the ground. A smirk was curved on my face as I heard her breathe with exhaustion, all the guards remained four and I was disappointed. I thought they were the best but they were killed easily, one of the guards waved his hands and she was suspended in the mid-air. The guard controlled her and she hit her head on the house, she stood up from the ground weakly and she yelped in pain.

  She raised her hands conjuring thunder and it struck the guard hard, the guard fell to the ground and it remained three-guard. The guards cast a spell and a huge fireball appeared and they controlled it towards Jane, she leaped up escaping the fireball and she charged at them but unknown to her the fireball was still being controlled by the guard. The guard hit her with the fireball and she crashed to the ground, she yelped with pain and agony looking at the guard who was walking toward her with a victorious smile. She glared daggers at them and she teleported away, she opened her mouth, and a big lighting ball bolted towards the guard. The guards tried to move but they were unable to, the lighting bolts hit them and they all died instantly. She sighed heavily as she was breathing haggardly and I scoffed, the look on her face soon changed to anger and she glared at me. She dashed towards me angrily levitating up and a smirk was plastered on my face.
