”But what if he fails...” Asked Ariel as she started to tear up
She was about to sprint off the edge, ignoring, what master said, but serena stopped her.
”Serena!” Ariel shouted

*Clang* *Clang* *Clang*
The sound of weapons hitting each other, resounded throughout the darkness. A light versus a shadow.
With irregular swings, following one after another, John would either block them, or avoid them, while attacking. No one was being pushed back, just as no one was being hit.
John was constantly draining his energy, to keep up the rush, while the shadow looked perfectly fine, however, john's focus did not waver
For a moment, the shadow, left an opening near his torso, John instantly grabbed that opening and got a clean kick on the shadow. He reinforced his leg as much as he could, sending the Shadow flying back
As the shadow continued to roll back, it suddenly disappeared, John looked around then up but it wasn't there, he looked down, and it was rising from the ground right underneath him at a fast speed.
As john stepped back to avoid it, it disappeared again, and this time, John knew that it was behind him. Since his legs weren't touching the ground, John needed to use velox to propel himself away
As he turned, to face the shadow, and propel himself away, he was suddenly stabbed, right beside his abs, in the abdominal oblique.
John tried to pull the dagger out of him, but it wouldn't budge
Then with a grin, the shadow muttered, ”Tenebris Flammae”
Flames erupted through the blade, and passed through john's wound
”GAAHHH!” John let out
The pain coming from the wound was unimaginable, his hand wouldn't stop trembling, and he couldn't talk. As he continued to grip the shadow's hand trying to pull it away from his wound, he looked at the shadow's face.
IT had a wide grin formed on it, as it said
”Ah... Yes... That expression... That hate... The pain... The fear... It tastes so good...”
As pain surged through his body and john's anger began to increase, he could hear a voice inside of him
[John, need help?]
He could easily recognise the voice, even though he hadn't heard it in a long time, it was the voice of the person who saved him from the shadow mage. Hearing that voice, gave him strength, it showed him that he wasn't alone
”No, I'll be fine.” Said John
The shadow confused, was about to end john with the next move, when all of the sudden, John said
”Magnum Sancti Lumine” Translation: Big Holy light
