Ariana didn"t have a second to lose. More doll llike girls started to materialize with every pa.s.sing heartbeat. "Fine! But only Davita, I can"t risk anyone else!" Ariana shouted and rushed forward with her chakrams in hand. Davita continued her arial blades as Ariana fought with her chakams and sliced the dolls in half. With Celest.i.te being so weak she couldn"t risk making mutiple chakrams to attack all the dols at once.Ariana threw her right chakram as hard as she could and watched it slice five dolls in half at once. Suddenly weird, golden tan sand started to rain along with the black, glittering sand. It caught Ariana by surprise, she stared completely entranced by the new sand. It started to clump together as it fell and the moment it hit the ground, Ariana could not hide her shock. The people that were absorbed were coming back.
"Davita we need to move the fight away!" Ariana shouted as she jumped back and started to run the opposite direction from the dolls. "Are those people?!" Davita shouted as she produced another air slash in front of the doll like girl army. A large trench produced and the doll like girls started to fall inside. Ariana looked back and smiled. "Do you think that you can destroy them without hurting the people they absorbed?" Ariana asked as she stopped in her tracks.
"I don"t think so... I can get the top layer but the problem is the people who are left laying on the ground." Davita said as she saw some of the dolll like girls approach the unconscious people. "I have to go save them!" Davita shouted as she rushed forward. "Davita!" Ariana shouted as she chased after her.
"SH*T!" Ariana shouted as ran back but she couldn"t blame Davita, she wanted to help them too. "I can protect them!" Davita shouted back and then started to prodcue a whilwhind around the bodies, pushing back the doll like girls.
"Davita try to catch the glittering sand!" Ariana shouted as she jumped up. "Wait what?! Ariana what are you doing?!" Daita shouted but it was too late. Ariana jumped into the trench. Ariana started to slash and spin as she cut the doll like girls into pieces. Davita picked up her whirlwind and turning it into a controlled cyclone with glittering black and golden tan sand as Ariana destroyed dolls at a ridiculous speed.
"I don"t think I can seperate the sand!" Davita shouted. Ariana backflipped off of one of the doll"s heads, avoiding capture as she sliced another doll as she arched her back backwards. "Just keep it up!" Ariana shouted as she landed on her feet. The dolls were no longer materializing and their numbers reduced drastically.
While Davita"s cyclone was pushing the remaining dolls into the trench. Ariana started to heave, there was a major down side to Davita"s cyclone. Ariana was having a harder time breathing.
Ariana took a step forward and found that she was already exhausted her strength. There were still a good dozen dolls left and they were all staring her down, ready to pounce. Ariana just kept thinking to herself it was only 12 more to go. 12 is nothing, esecially if she thought they were doughnuts. She could eat doughnuts without much thought. "That"s right.... you"re all doughnuts...." Ariana mumbled to herself as she breathed heavily.
Suddeny the dolls straightened up perfectly, their eyes rolled back and the mouth"s opened widely. The whole thing was eerie and it sent a chill down Ariana"s back. Even though she knew they were dolls they looked so realistic making them look more like small children possessed by an evil being. "You"re quite the fighter." A manly yet feminine voice called out from within the dolls.
It caught Ariana off guard making her drop her chakrams. They instantly dissolved as they hit the ground but Ariana was oblivious. "W-w-who are you? What do you want?" Ariana asked as she tried to compose herself from the shock. "Well that"s new.... Usually I am asked if these children are real or screams... Alright, for now since you survived this long you earned my respect and reward." The voice said with a light laugh.
Ariana gulped back saliva and curled her finger inwards. "Reward?" She asked as panic hit her. She couldn"t call back the chakrams, she exhausted Celest.i.te. She took a deep breath in and felt how shalow the air was. "We will be friends." The voice said with delight. Ariana was dumbstruck. What did this person wanted? She needed to find out what this person wanted before she pa.s.sed out. "I didn"t know I had a friend this amazing... producing such creations with beautiful materials. I would like to know my friend"s name so I can personally praise them." Ariana said as she picked one doll and looked at it.
However the person was using all the dolls to communicate with her. "You are absolutely darling! I can see why that person wants you! Alright my name is -" The voice said before it went silent. Cayden had slashed through the remaing dozen dolls in a blink of an eye. Ariana felt a wave of relief wash over her and she dropped to her knees. "Where have you been?" Ariana asked as she wheezed.
"Davita I got her!" Cayden shouted upwards as he walked up to Ariana. Davita stopped her cyclone and all the sand started to rain down. The moment the clumps of gloden tan coloured sand hit the ground people materialised. "Sorry but we need to leave." Cayden said softly as he held his hand out for Ariana.
Ariana looked at the hand then at Cayden"s face. "Why are you being so weird?" Ariana asked as she tried to stand up by herself. Cayden clicked his tongue then scooped Ariana up mid rise. "I wil explain later but right now we need to leave." He said then jumped out of the trench with Ariana in his arms. Davita quickly changed into light and returned to Ariana"s ear.
Arinana looked back at the busy street and felt her blood run cold as Cayden ran from the trench. Black sand started to flow like a river towards the center of the street. It pooled and bubbled upwards like lava while the unconscious people laid listlessly. An army of people with dark purple robes and gold embroidery on the trim appeared.
