form vanished. I felt so tired and weak. I passed out and fell to the ground. When I regained consciousness, I saw demons sparring with each other underground. Priscilla looked back at me and smiled.

“Welcome to your new home Raikoe!” she said.

“Welcome my new friend” Malory said.

Resistance

Nohkaria limped through the metal door injured after beating every wind user in the room. They were all scattered about with green energy lingering in the room. Nohkaria climbed up the stairs of the prison and reached the room at the top. Sinaria was there waiting for her.

“You just don’t know when to quit do you?” Sinaria asked as she went into demon form. Nohkaria raised her right arm to her chest and a bright green light formed in her hand. Her demon form vanished and the energy remained in her hand.

“Now what will you do with no power Nohkaria!?” Sinaria asked.

“I’ll destroy this place!” Nohkaria yelled. Sinaria turned and flew out of a window. She stopped and looked back at Nohkaria.

“You fight on the wrong side Nohkaria!” Sinaria yelled. Nohkaria slammed the green energy into the floor of the room. The entire prison rumbled and exploded when the energy tore through the bottom of the prison.

“Let’s go Nohkaria!” Gestalsia Nohkaria’s demon shouted to her. Sinaria escaped and Nohkaria tried to do the same she jumped from the window and started to fall to the ground.

“I can’t do anything else Gestalsia!” Nohkaria yelled. As she fell a small glimmer of green light caught her in mid air and she then vanished. Nohkaria appeared in the darkness she put Raikoe in. she passed out in the darkness and Gestalsia her demon from within appeared beside her. A green demon with emerald green eyes and no legs just a tail. Her hair was extremely long.

“You won’t last very long like this Nohkaria. I see what you’re trying to do but you’re abusing the power I give you.” Even though Nohkaria couldn’t hear her she spoke anyway.

“I’ll wait with you until you’re ready to face him but we both know this won’t end well Nohkaria.” Gestalsia said.

 

In the Kings Capital amongst the quarters of the Red Guard, Typhon laid in his room thinking about what his mother said to him. He tried to ignore it but he couldn’t escape her words. He held his crystal in his hands and thought of the day he received the crystal from Nohkaria. She taught him how to use it for the first time while his older siblings watched and smiled. Remembering his siblings made him think of Raikoe and where he could be. He looked toward a mirror in his room and stared at it.

“If Raikoe really has a fire crystal like father said then the wars can be put to an end one way or another. Father wants more war with the angels and Mother wants no war at all. Januro wants to be left alone while Annabelle keeps her secrets. Kaley hasn’t been seen in two years while I’m in line to be King after my father. Raikoe is being hidden from the world and quite possibly learning to use the fire crystal against us. Who do I go to? Who do I help? What should I do?” Typhon speaks to himself in his room. He walked over to the balcony and stood out watching the people of the Capital go about their days. He looked up and saw Sinaria flying back to the Capital.

“What is she doing here!? She’s supposed to be watching over her prison!” Typhon shouted aggravated. Sinaria landed in front of the Red Guard and made her way to Hiemachy. Typhon stood before the door to his office and waited for her to speak.

“She escaped Typhon I need to tell your father!” Sinaria said to him.

“How did you let her escape, She was in your custody you fool!!” Typhon shouted.

“The soldiers you gave me were weak!” she responded.

“Typhon!” a voice from behind the door Typhon stood in front of called to him.

“You’ll be explaining this one you fool.” Typhon whispered to Sinaria.

Nohkaria awoke in the darkness and sighed.

“I’m awake lets go Gestalsia.” She said. Gestalsia waited in front of her.

“Do you really think we can beat him like this?” Gestalsia asked.

“I have to try Gestalsia.” Nohkaria responded.

“No you don’t Nohkaria! You’ve basically handed the revolution over to Raikoe! You wouldn’t do this if Raikoe had no power so why now!? Why go after him after all this time!?” Gestalsia asked angrily.

“If I can stop him now it’ll be easier for Raikoe to end the war and take control of the Red Guard!” Nohkaria responded.

“I hope you don’t expect me to believe that! Why not help Raikoe further by being by his side when he faces the war for the first time! Let Raikoe decide for himself what should be done. I’ve seen what Raikoe is capable of remember? He’ll mature faster than you think!” Gestalsia tried to explain to Nohkaria but she didn’t seem to care.

“I’ll do this for my son Gestalsia! You can leave whenever you feel like it!” Nohkaria said.

“How dare you! I’m here for the same reasons you are Nohkaria! I’ve been with you through it all! Every demon we’ve killed and sent to their judgment! And you know what, I’ll be right there with you when you lose your life on this pointless mission!” Gestalsia said as she jumped back into Nohkaria’s body. Nohkaria went into demon form and the darkness shattered. She then stood before the Red Guards gate ready to face the disaster her husband had become.

 

Typhon stood in front of a large red throne and a large red desk turned to the window in Hiemachy’s office arguing with Sinaria about Nohkaria’s escape.

“Father, tell this insolent fool that my soldiers were some of the best in the Red Guard!!” Typhon asked.

“Hiemachy, this child of yours obviously gave me his weakest soldiers on purpose to make me fail and disappoint you!” Sinaria exclaimed.

“Both of you shut up, your bickering will be the death of both you! Your prize is already watching. Take a look; we have a long awaited guest.” Hiemachy said as he turned in his throne. His Eyes glowed bright yellow but he was still in human form. He had long golden hair that hung in front of his face. He wore a shiny black cape and red uniform with a long black hood draped down his back. Typhon and Sinaria looked to the open door and saw Nohkaria in demon form standing at the door with her deadly staring eyes fixed onto Hiemachy. Both of their eyes widened in surprise.

“It’s okay you two, leave us. Nohkaria’s been known to do things that aren’t in her best interest. Isn’t that right sweetheart?” Hiemachy asked as Typhon and Sinaria edged their way out of the room. Typhon looked at his mother but she didn’t look back. As Sinaria shut the doors. Typhon felt left out. He felt that his own mother had disowned him. From that moment his confusion only grew and so did his anger.

“Now that you’re here Nohkaria you can tell me where Raikoe is. So we can all be a family again.” Hiemachy said as Nohkaria walked over to the front of his desk.

“I told your perfidious new wife that I would never let you have him!!” Nohkaria responded.

“There’s absolutely no difference between us Nohkaria! Except the fact that I have more power than you, I have an army, and all but one of our children is with their father!! What exactly are you protecting Raikoe from anyway!?” Hiemachy asked.

“Raikoe will kill you and restore this world to the peace and love that the people of this world desire!!” Nohkaria exclaimed.

“Then what, he’ll kill his vengeful siblings!? Or will he make the angels leave the demons alone using his childish charms!?” Hiemachy angrily asked.

“He’ll rule as a just leader and correct the mistakes of the world!!” Nohkaria angrily replied.

“Are you really feeding this stuff to a child!? Across the oceans and continents there’s a force still building that is so powerful it could destroy what’s left of us, all of us!! One child alone can’t take on the whole world!!” Hiemachy said as he angrily stood up from his throne.

“Maybe not Hiemachy but one child can definitely change the world!!” Nohkaria responded.

“Where are you getting these theories that I’m not changing the world for the better, huh!!? Where!? I was always nothing but good to you Nohkaria!!” Hiemachy tried to explain.

“You’ve destroyed the lives of so many!! You’ve destroyed the way people think! Being in the wars has become an achievement to people!! There’s no excuse for your evil, no explanation, and no justice!!!” Nohkaria roared. The air was thick with tension as Nohkaria and Hiemachy stared each other down.

 

“Well Hiemachy shall we?” Nohkaria asked.

“Of course, we can play for a while. We’ll dance with the evil intent until the light fades or the lightning strikes its last!” Hiemachy responded. Nohkaria took a step back and revealed her sword. Hiemachy held out his hand and gold lightning flashed and revealed his sword. The blade was almost normal it had no color but it glowed just like his eyes. Hiemachy then smiled at Nohkaria.

“Last chance Nohkaria where is Raikoe!?” He asked. Nohkaria smiled back and laughed.

“Die!” she shouted. Hiemachy kicked his desk at Nohkaria but she simply cut it in half. Nohkaria then bolted and slashed Hiemachy; he then flew out the window and ricocheted off of the building next to the Red Guard and into the road in between the buildings. Hiemachy stood up smiling. Nohkaria stood at the hole made by his body.

“What’s wrong Hiemachy can’t go into your demon form? Too scared to see what would happen if that demon took the rest of your soul!?” she shouted from above.

“I don’t need it to kill you Nohkaria!!” Hiemachy shouted from below. Nohkaria jumped up from the hole and slashed downwards to Hiemachy. Her power forced Hiemachy to dodge. Slashing into the ground made a small crater in the road. Nohkaria stood up and looked at Hiemachy. He could see that Nohkaria was serious she was holding nothing back. Hiemachy shot lightning from his right hand and made Nohkaria dodge. A flash of lightning made Hiemachy disappear. When he reappeared his hand was already on the right side of Nohkaria’s face. His golden wings shot out from his human back and he flew through an entire building with Nohkaria’s face in his hand. He flew up and threw her at another building. Nohkaria’s wings appeared and she stopped herself. The entire Red Guard then surrounded Nohkaria including Typhon and Sinaria.

“Leave us now!! This is our fight!! Now leave or die!!” Hiemachy shouted to them. They all started to step back and watch on top of every building in the Capital. Before Typhon backed away he looked to his mother.

 

“What are you doing?” Typhon asked. Nohkaria looked to him. 

“Trying to protect all of my children.” Nohkaria responded. She then flew up after Hiemachy and clashed swords with him. Typhon watched wondering what to do. He then started to step forward but Sinaria stepped in front of him.

“Move aside woman!” Typhon yelled.

“There’s no future with your mother Typhon!” Sinaria yelled back. Typhon pulled
