Ten
Your screams ripped through the air one at a time each one with more pain than the last. Rin ran as fast as his feet could carry him. The tree wouldn't let him climb them, and it was odd. The air wouldn't let him fly through it. He had to run on foot.
[Y/N], I'm on my way. Hang in there for a little bit. You're strong. You're the daughter of the dead, heir to the Underworld throne, and the Demon with magic. A little bit of pain won't take you away that easily. Rin thought to himself.
He didn't know the strong mutt demon's weakness. No one could possibly know what it was except there were rumors about her fears being her ultimate weakness. No. The one weakness who could kill her was lightening.ย
Lightening creates forest fires, but it can't stop them. It can just destroy them in its past. Over in the little meadowish part of the forest, you fell to the ground once again from the feel of your cousin's lightening strikes.ย
It was slowly killing you, and you couldn't say goodbye to your friends. You couldn't say your goodbyes to anyone.
"Why." You breathed, "Why are you doing this?"
"Your mind is twisted. Us godly demons are supreme over all mortals even the seemingly immortal ones. You think you can protect every one from the monsters. You think you can save all of them.ย
"We godly demons have been waiting to see the day of humans and demons bowing before us!" Claudia preached.
"Us?" You questioned standing up.
Just like an invisibility cloak being revealed, a dozen or so Godly demons appeared before you. Claudia, Joelle, and Akemi seemed to be the ring leaders.
"Hello, [Y/N]. Have you missed us?" Akemi asked.
"Hardly." Your body ached as you felt burns harass your body.
"I hope you understand that this isn't personal, but we had no choice. You are the only godly demon who isn't a part of something amazing, practical, and modern." Akemi said modern like she was drinking poison from a viper.
"There are dozens of godly demons out there. I only see twelve." You screamed again as Claudia zapped you.
You rested against a metal bar near the back: the only bar that would zap you. "These are our strongest ones. With your power, we could make you a commander instantly. You just have to do one thing, and we can do anything you want."
"I want you to get out of here before the real battle begins." You smirked at them.
"He won't be able to stop you. You see I made it possible for you to be alone. Everyone looking at you like you're a monster. Everyone here thinks you killed your family including the boy coming to see you.ย
"You're nothing. Just a simple memory. Once you leave, their anger and resentment towards you will be gone and you will be finally free." Akemi said.
"You will be finally free!" She yelled at you. "Stop being a big baby over everything! Nothing is going to change!"
"I'm sorry." You whispered.
**
"Mom said you will finally be free! All I see is a monster." He looked past you at something in the past difference.
"That's what mom said." You fell to the ground with tears threatening to spill out. "Why did you take my mother's own words unity and accptance away from her?" You yanked on your hair so much you thought you pulled it out.
Akemi smirked at you. "I'm the one who sent the monsters to kill her and your family."
"Hephastus! What are you doing here?" Your fifteen year old self asked.
"For your fifteenth birthday, I thought I would advise you on something." Hephastus explained.
"Are you going to scold me on the fire?" You asked quirking your eyebrow to the side.
"Not at all. I'm just here to advise you of what mastery looks like." Hephastus smiled at you.
You looked up at him with bright eyes ready to hear everything he could ever say. He was your teacher in fire. You would take anything he said to heart.
"Your ideal magic is pyromancy. With pyromancy, you can change your flame to the color that goes with a certain god. Your father is multiples: blue, red, and purple." He said.
"Isn't blue Satan's color?" You questioned.
"Yes, but that's why most Hades demons have purple fire. You control the fire not the other way around."
"I already learned to control the fire, Hephastus. What are you going to say now?"
"Controlling fire not only means manipulating it, generating, and not letting it burn the people you don't want it to, but to not let it burn the user." Hephastus words seemed to enter one ear and out the other. "Oh, and one more thing. Lightening is not stronger than Fire and they are not of equal strength."
The tears escaped you. You couldn't cry once you heard the news. Instead of sadness and grief, you felt the power of rage and resentment go into one small container in the emotion section of your heart.ย
With so much negativity filling one spot, it would grow into too much.
"She can't even speak. She must be emotionally and mentally weak for that." An unknown boy told Akemi.
"She's always been that way. Plus, she's never been a match for me. She could take on only one of us not dozens of us. If she did fight, we have her weakness. She can't break lightning!" Akemi beamed with pride.
Fire ignited in your hand and you clenched your hand into a fist. You punched the lightning bar in the front and flew out. Your eyes dripped with a venomous glare as you stared at Akemi. All your focus was on her, and you took your first strike to her.
She must have seen your attack coming, because she ducked under your arm and flipped you over. You groaned as your back hit the patted grass on top of the cold, hard dirt. She held you like that and despite your flailing to get out from under her, you seemed to fail.
"You really haven't learned anything, have you? I'm the ultimate Hades demon!" Akemi yelled in your face.
Your hand ignited with green fire, and you punched her in the stomach. Her body fell over and she tried to get up. For packing quite a punch, she was useless against fire. You stood up as did she.
"You've learned a thing or two, sister." She said the word like the word just murdered her puppy.
"On the contrary, I have a few things up my sleeve." You said.
"Like what? You're not as powerful as they say you are, sister dear." Insanity was one word used to describe Akemi. Relentless was another.
"I know. I'm getting there." You replied.
"Twelve! Fight the Hades mutt!" Akemi would always use other people to fight her battles.
Within seconds, the twelve godly demons surrounded the Hades and Hecate mixed demon. You withdrew your dagger from the spot around your ankle. You tossed it around your arm movement guiding it through the air, but never once laying a hit on them.ย
You were starting to grow pissed and you swallowed your body in fire before blasting the fire out towards everyone. You made sure everyone saw the all familiar glow of your purple fire. You turned to Akemi.
ย With the twelve gone and Claudia and Joelle gone in the shadows, there was no one else to fight Akemi's battles.
"What were you saying, Akemi?" Your voice dripped with venom.
