CHAPTER 44 - THE GREAT BATTLE
"Let's get moving Marcel shield the chamber and Minerva cast the protection spell." Diana instructed them.
"I am coming with you." Minerva towed.
"No, you will stay with them are we clear?" Marcel ordered her younger sister.
"Mini just stay focus on our plan and never leave their side okay?" Diana told her.
"Okay." Minerva nodded.
"We need to go now; I can feel the rogues are near the border." Diana runs to the door.
"The pack will win the attack I made sure of that." Minerva assured me.
"What do you mean?" Diana and Marcel stopped on our tracks.
"I secretly created a spell for our pack warriors against the rogues. We let them reach our perimeter but the moment they cross it, lighting will hit them and they will be human forever." Minerva described thoroughly.
"You are so genius Mini!" Diana hugged her proudly.
"There is only one problem the spell works only for rogues not for the Grim Reapers and Demons." Minerva alerted them.
"Marcel will summon the Angels and Guardians so it will be taken care of." Diana bring up the another plan.
"Come on let's go Sis." Marcel holds a tight grip on his sword and led Minerva to the safe chamber.
As soon as everyone is inside the chamber Marcel created a white fog and blasted it to the door and it soon faded. Diana grabbed her bow and aimed for the chamber’s door for added protection. During trainings they learned how to use their own abilities to transform into their own warrior gear. Diana has a bow and arrows while Marcel got shield and sword then Minerva has special leaf as headpiece. Soon as they head to the clearing, they saw pack warriors fighting the rogues back and forth. Diana aimed her special silver arrow to the rouges that turned human permanently. Her concentration was distracted when she felt Tyrone and the last conversation they had was he was heading to the border.
'Artemis what's wrong with Tyrone?' Diana got a sudden pain on my head.
'It's our mate I can detect he is in trouble.' She answered anxiously.
"Diana is everything okay?" Marcel called his attention.
"Marcel there's something not right here can you mind link Tyrone and Warren please?" Diana requested quickly.
"Tyrone didn't make it on the clearing as per Warren." Marcel passed the message to her.
In the middle of the conversation the atmosphere changed and they are surrounded with black smoke.
"Looking for your precious mate?" Hades appeared with evil eyes.
"Where is he?" Diana deathly stated.
"You think I wouldn't find out your plan?" He walked towards their direction.
"Stop talking and fight us!!" Marcel yelled.
"Let me introduce you first to my alley and I think you would love her." Hades motioned his hand and the silhouette appeared.
"Charissa." Marcel whispered.
“What did you do to her?” Marcel is now shaking.
"I know Charissa is your mate my dear nephew so I used my black magic to compel her. It was so easy to get her attention on the day you fought with her sister." Hades retaliates.
“'Marcel, Hades knew she is your weakness and she is using her don’t make him win.” Diana stopped him.
“But I can’t fight my own mate!” Marcel dejected the idea.
“Marci, I will try to undo the spell but you have to mark her now I will use my illusion to stop the time so you can do it and get her away from here, just be quick and Diana please buy some time.” Minerva offered out of nowhere.
"What are you doing here? I told you stay at the chamber." Diana snapped.
"It's nice to meet the third deity." Hades gazed on her direction.
'Don't fret Dee that is my illusion.' Minerva linked to her.
“Hello little Minerva.” Hades smiled menacingly.
“Cut the pleasantries, I maybe little but my abilities aren’t.” Minerva did not back down.
“Then join the company, the more the merrier! Ha ha ha!” Hades laughed.
"Let her go!” Marcel shifted on his grey wolf but his mate stood in front of Hades for defense.
"You will get to me first before you hurt my master." Charissa eyes turns pitch dark.
"Let's see if you can harm your mate Marcel and you Diana this is for you." Hades whisked his hand in the air.
Diana saw Apollo together with his mate and their parents being chained with black smoke surrounding their necks, wrists and feet.
“Focus Diana! I know Tyrone is your weakness but you can't let him get into you!' Artemis gets on her head.
"Let them go! This battle is amongst us!” Diana shouted furiously.
"What do you want?" Marcel saw Diana is distraught and getting weak.
"Surrender all your powers willingly and I will let everyone free." Hades negotiated as if it was a piece of metal to negotiate with.
"We will not do that! You can't fool us Hades." Minerva came from behind me.
“Dee, I will open the portal to the Underworld now. Marci use your magic to unchain the prisoners and use the same portal to get back here.” Minerva started to form the vortex.
“Time is ticking, tick tock tick tock.” Hades copied the sound.
“I will use mutation to hold Hades but you need to move fast. Leave immediately before he finds out that this is all just an illusion.' She commanded like an adult.
When the vortex was opened, Marcel entered the portal while the Angels and Guardians are descending from the sky and at the same time the Reapers and the Demons are emerging from the ground.
“Since you don’t want to surrender then let the battle begins and you will all die!" Hades changed into his own fighting suit.
"We will never let you win Hades!" Diana shouted authoritatively.
From a distance snakes start to appear and Diana used empathic ability to summon animals. She hummed a melody for animals calling specifically eagles, hawks, honey badgers and the notorious mongoose. She commanded them to hunt and kill every snake that they can see.
"You will pay for that!!" Hades shifted on his demonic form.
Diana teleported before Hades can grab her, her bow and arrow appeared on her arming for her devil Uncle. Hades was flying while surrounded with black smoke as he threw fires continuously but Diana was able to block it. She aimed towards his way and Hades managed to dodge the arrow with fire turning it to dust.
"Is that all you can do while everyone is fighting for their life!" Hades caught the arrow.
"Nobody will die on my pack!" Diana shouted venomously.
She used her remaining energy for the mystical moon and suddenly Diana was floating in the air and the dress turns white with a touch of blue. The bow became a shape of crescent moon with sparkling effects and aimed for Hades heart. It went straight to Hades it was then in time that Marcel came and plunged his sword at the same spot while Minerva casted a vanishing spell. Diana watched the shimmering light engulfed Hades and before her eyes closes, she prayed for one thing... her family's safety
