Chapter Twenty-Two "Adam and Eve"

The werewolf turned to Brutus. James was in fury, massive and scary. Brutus however was not afraid.
Brutus
Let’s fight, me and you doggy
Odias
Ilias we must allow them to fight alone
Ilias
Agreed
They ran across the street to where Malic stood, James roared.
Brutus
Come on, show me what you got
They fought and the floors shook. People stood in their houses as their apartment buildings shook.
Ximendos
We must kill that beast
Akasha
Brutus I am sure can do it
Glado
I want to get in on this
Malic stood across the other side of the street watching as Ilias rushed him
Malic
Come on ya litto bastard
Ilias jumped and his knee connected with his face. Malic hit the ground.
Ilias
Odias
Odias bit onto his neck
Malic
You motherfucker!
Odias dragged his giant body back onto the sidewalk behind them
Ilias
Now Suri!
Suri jumped from the building right above where Malic stood and her fist went into his stomach. He yelled as blood flew out of his mouth.
Malic
What are you doing to me?
Ilias
You can’t use your powers
Ximendos was watching the two fights
Ximendos
Apparently they have this planned out, Akasha, take that girl
Akasha
Love to
Suri stood next to Ilias
Suri
He’s out, wait for the others, we are taking him in
Malic
I’d rather die you bloody whore
Suri
You can soon you-
A snake bit into her neck, pick her up off her feet and swung her into a wall. Suri hit the floor next and did not get up.
Akasha
You were saying?
Ilias
Women, you are wretched
Akasha
Thanks kid
Two hands grabbed Akasha by the shoulder and lifted her into the air, Arkain was lifting her high
Akasha
Put me down fool
Arkain
No problem hag!
He let go, sending her crashing to the ground. She got up still like nothing.
Akasha
You little kids are something else
James bit into Brutus’ neck and Brutus threw him off
Brutus
Come on, can’t you do anything but bite
Every time James slashed or bit Brutus turned into his muddy like creation and was not affected.
Hayden
Hello Ximendos
Ximendos and Glado turned around to meet Hayden’s face
Ximendos
So you’re the elf I was told about, pleasure
Hayden
There is no pleasure here; I am here to kill you
Glado
Ha, you can do no such thing
Hayden
Quiet
Hayden lifted his hand and Glado was thrown back off the building
Ximendos
I like, you have style
Hayden
Enough, I did not come here for flattering
Ximendos
We don’t have to fight. Why waste such amazing powers. In the end one of us will die, but why? We can work something out.
Hayden
No, we cannot
His blonde hair did not even move despite the rushing wind
Ximendos
Your children will die, little Suri down there has already been poisoned by Akasha and will die in 30 minutes. Your indestructible werewolf is fighting our indestructible Brutus and that is going no where, just destroying buildings. What are you gaining from this?
Arkain landed behind Hayden
Ximendos
Aw, I finally get to lay my eyes on this child
Arkain
And this will be your only time
Ximendos
What is with all you preaching death as if you can do such a thing?
Arkain fell to his knees in pain, screaming
Hayden
What are you doing?
Ximendos
Killing him, what do you think these eyes were created for?
Arkain rolled on his back, his wings no longer out. A giant white blade of bone came out the side of Hayden’s arm and he charged Ximendos. Ximendos disappeared. Hayden ran to Arkain, but Arkain was unconscious.
Hayden
This can’t be happening
Malic was getting up, holding his stomach as he bled from the mouth
Malic
It’s alright, I’m okay
Ilias was battling Akasha, sword on sword. While Odias laid on the ground with no movement.
Akasha
You have some really good fighting skills; you’d be great for the regime
Ilias
Darkness has no place in my heart
Akasha
Oh really, then why do you choose not to show the White Coats what you can see
He stopped blocking dumbstruck by what she said
Akasha
Got you
Her sword entered his shoulder and he hit the ground
Akasha
Your coming with us pretty boy
A giant snake appeared from under her cloak
Akasha
Wrap the boy up Maxine, and be gentle, he’s coming with us.
Glado
Can we leave now? My head hurts from being thrown off a building by a stupid elf. No manners I swear!
Malic
We must leave now
Akasha
They will find us
Glado
So we keep moving, at least till this idiot can regain his strength
A white spear broke through Malic’s chest and he fell to the ground
Glado
Never mind
They scattered
Hayden
We shall find you again no matter where you run
Akasha spit on the ground
Akasha
And I will be ready to fight you elf
Hayden
How about now, I do not fear you women
Akasha moved forward but Glado grabbed her by the arm
Glado
Let’s go
They disappeared. Seris appeared next to Hayden.
Seris
Where is Suri, we haven’t got much time
She ran over to Suri and began to heal the bite on her neck
Hayden
Take her home
Ximendos approached Ilias’ unconscious body
Ximendos
Well, well, well, today has proven itself to be a rather amusing day
He put his foot on Ilias’ chest as the snaked hissed
Ximendos
Get off him snake, we aren’t taking him
The snaked hissed and slid off his body Ximendos knelt down next to him
Ximendos
Kid, you are the Adam, and your sister is Eve.
Hayden
Back away
Ximendos stood up
Ximendos
Relax, I mean him no harm. No harm at all
Ximendos disappeared. Sirens filled the air as police cars and S.W.A.T. trucks appeared on the scene.
Police officer on microphone
Put your hands up, we will not hesitate to shoot
James landed In front of all the police officers and their cars. He roared and cars flipped back
Police officer
Fire!
They began to shoot at him but no bullets pierced his body. He ran to stand next to Hayden across the street. He transformed back into his human form
James
What do we do?
Hayden
We leave. Pick up Ilias and run home, I must get Arkain.
James transformed back and picked up Ilias and Odias and ran through the city.
Police Force
Please put your hands up
Hayden
I mean you no harm
His voice was loud and audible. He jumped onto the building. Suddenly there were explosions, he did not know why. He looked down to see lighting coming down from the skies and hitting every car directly.
Hayden
No, this is too soon
