Chapter 1011 - THE DRAGON SHIFTERS AND THE OTHER BEASTS
"They should be here by now…" Jean said, as she looked around to find any movement from the darkness, yet couldn\'t find anything. Everything was too silent for something to not make a sound when it moved…
But then, as if proving Jean\'s words were wrong, all of a sudden they heard a series of popping sounds all around them, those sounds were akin to a firecracker being burned continuously.
Yet, when the sound finally stopped and they looked around them, they saw a mass of people, or you could say; witches, wizards, faes and a few crossbred shifters in their beast form.
"Now, they are here…" Leon said with a smile on his lips and Abby could only widen her eyes in disbelieve.
"I don\'t believe this… the witch managed to gather these many people in such a short notice…" Abby said in voice like a whisper.
"I think they like to fight against each other like what they used to through these years, rather than to be the slaves of the devils…" Leon answered his sister, shrugging his shoulders and walking toward the amassed people who appeared at the river bank all of a sudden.
"The witch is full of manipulation," the candlemaiden sneered. Actually, she was in agreement with what Leon said, not all the creatures loved the idea of being slaves of the devils, they liked to kill each other more in order to survive and Serefina used that common inclination to gather them all.
However, it was not a normal thing or reason for making them to fight together, but who said that the line of thought of that pure blooded witch was normal?
"Okay! Now we will…" Leon raised his hands and was about to make a speech when one of the minotaurs growled.
"Shut up!" he said in a vicious tone, the big horn on his head shook dangerously. "I don\'t want to hear you. If you are not going to kill that f*cking creature under the water, better scram, or I will kill you!"
Behind the minotaur, there were around a thousand shifters, beasts, witches and wizards who shared the same intentions. The only cause for them to be here; was to kill the Hydra.
Hearing that, Leon was stunned, but Jean pulled him away before the wizard could be killed by the short- tempered minotaur.
"It is obvious that they don\'t need your speech," Abby sneered, as she noticed that all the people that just appeared had now gathered near the river, waiting for their battle with the most dangerous creature from hell.
There was a reason why the Hydra would appear last, since it would bring havoc to this world just by its presence.
The appearance of this particular creature signified that this world was on the verge of meeting its end in the hands of the devils and humans would be wiped out from its history…
This creature would bring more despair as it would arise the most darkest side of a human heart, turning him nothing more than a ball of wrecking negative emotions that would destroy everything his eyes laid upon.
It was more dangerous than anything else…
"What happened to her?" a man with long silver hair that cascaded down his back, approached Abby, who was holding Bree.
The little girl was still breathing, but her breath turned shallow with each passing second.
"Who are you?" Abby narrowed her eyes at the man and showed a defensive stance until Christal told her.
"He is a water dragon," she said curtly.
The water dragon crouched down beside Bree and checked her injuries, as he mumbled. "The air dragon shifter…" he said.
"Air dragon shifter?" Leon came closer to them, no longer paying attention to the bunch of shifters that were waiting for the Hydra to come out.
They didn\'t have a leader, thus it went without saying that they would fight the creature under the frozen river with whatever they could, as long as it died in the end, they didn\'t need strategy.
Moreover, with their numbers, they were confident that they could take it down in no time.
And Leon didn\'t want to join the battle without a well planned out strategy, but it didn\'t seem that those people would mind it though…
"I have not heard about the air dragon shifters after their kind took the vow that forbidden them from shifting into their beasts." Leon watched curiously as the water dragon shifter traced his fingers along the wound on Bree\'s neck which extended to her bare back.
"They disappeared and secluded themselves, but if this young air dragon shifter is alone here… something must have happened to the older ones. To her parents…"
"No one knows for sure about what happened to the other dragon shifters," Christal crouched down beside Abby.
"But, how could she manage to shift? Isn\'t they are tied down with the vow?" Jean tilted her head, trying to comprehend this situation.
"The fae that sealed that vow had died, so it weakened the covenant of the vow." A slow but steady stream of water appeared at the tip of his finger and covered the wound on Bree\'s skin, as it started to close in. "Therefore I can do this too…"
His power was back and he could feel it, though it was weak, but it was there… growing stronger than ever the moment Purple breathed her last.
Thus, they only needed a little push to allow themselves to shift into their beasts, probably in Bree\'s case, whatever thing that was injected to her, had forced her beast side to wake up.
It seemed that no one was aware of this. Because if someone did, Purple\'s life would be in danger, as all the dragon shifters would look for her and kill her in order to get their powers back.
Knowing how greedy these creatures could be, that possibility was rather high. Therefore, the water dragon shifter could feel a change when Purple died, since the affect of the vow started fading away with her demise.
