7. Awaken

Hunter's senses started to act up. His eyes darted towards his friends, all three of them noticing the same thing; strong magical energy was near.

"It's them. I know what their magic feels like." Gale jolted to his feet but it was too late...

BOOOOOOOM!

"You were right, Maverick." A green haired girl sneered to a bright blue haired boy. "Following those little fairies led us right to the Demon Queen herself."

"I've never been wrong before, Alissa, so what makes you think I'd be wrong in this instance." Maverick responded in a monotonous tone.

Dust filled the air as the inn was left in rubble.

"These low lives definitely know how to make an entrance." Nashi said coughing the dust from her lungs.

"No shiz, Sherlock." Storm added sarcastically. He groaned as he pulled his left leg from under a large piece of rubble. "Great, now I can't walk properly."

"I can't even move my body anymore. The injuries from before are even worse." Gale muttered with a sour look on his face. He growled as unwanted memories from his torture seeped into his mind once again.

"Poor little Fairy." The girl, Alissa, teased with a fake pout. "You're a cutie, too bad my orders say I have to kill you." She said with a sadistic grin towards Storm who, in return, glared at her.

"We should just take the girl and leave. There's no need for unnecessary bloodshed." Maverick stated with an uneasy look.

"You weren't saying that when we were interrogating metal face over there." Alissa laughed manically as Gale clenched his fists.

Maverick simply rolled his eyes at the green haired girl before his eyes went into a hard stare. "It's seems that Oberon, the King of Fairies has emerged."

"You ruined the surprise." Hunter said from behind before thrusting his sword towards Maverick. Maverick swiftly dodged the sword.

Alissa then launched herself at Hunter knocking him onto the ground with a loud thud. She wrapped a rope around Hunter's neck. Nashi tried to push her off but was met by Maverick who kicked her into the wall.

Gale tried to move and help but he couldn't. His eyes darted to Storm who was looking behind him frozen.

"Storm! Help Nashi! What the hell are you doing?!" Gale shouted angrily. He felt like stabbing the ice make Mage until he saw what he was looking at.

"Everyone, we have a bigger problem!" Storm yelled. Hunter grunted as he tried to overpower Alissa's grip. He looked past Storm and saw Alexis kneeling over the body of Ivar.

"Ivar?" Alexis nudged the man's body a little but he didn't respond. The bright blue sky above seemed to darken as did the ground around Alexis. Dark magic seeped from her body every time her frail voice sobbed out Ivar.

"OooO, has the demon awakened?" Alissa said turning her attention away from Hunter for a moment. "This should be fun."

Maverick clenched his fists. "Shut up." He snarled and shot Alissa a glare. "This girl created Demon's torment when she was only 15. Don't underestimate her."

"Ivar, wake up." Alexis sobbed quietly gripping onto her knees so tight that her nails were leaving marks.

"He's dead, love." A husky British voice said. Alexis' wet eyes looked up to a dark haired man dressed in a all black tuxedo. A blood red rose was tucked into his coat pocket and his skin was deathly pale. His crimson eyes looked down at Alexis with pity. "I taught you better than to cry in front of your enemies."

"W-Who are you?" Alexis stuttered wiping the tears from her eyes. "I've never met you in my life." The man sighed before crouching down to eye level with her.

"I'll tell you my name a little later but for now, let me take control." He commanded.

"Control?" Alexis asked softly, her voice cracking. The man nodded.

"I'll... help you." He said cautiously. "They killed him." The man looked down at Ivar with a frown.

"You'll help me, right?" Alexis' small voice squeaked. The man nodded once again. "Okay, take control."

"As you wish, love." He smirked at her before putting his hand on Alexis' shoulder. Their two bodies engulfed in darkness.

Hunter knew what it felt like when a demon was about to be summoned. He threw Alissa off of him and scrambled towards Gale and Storm dragging them to cover. He looked towards Nashi and she'd already crouched behind a pile of rubble.

"I haven't seen this done in a while." Gale mumbled. He watched on as Alexis' body illuminated purple, her scream pierced the air. Two black Horns extruded from her head while her fingernails grew into razor sharp claws. Alexis' once blue eyes turned into a prison of complete darkness and violet armour replaced her flowery dress. A pair of webbed wings came from her back allowing Alexis to levitate above everyone. Two years past and Gale still found himself a little scared. Alexis Dreyer, in demon form, was terrifying.

"I always liked a challenge." Alissa said licking her lips with anticipation. She whipped her rope at Alexis aiming for her neck but Alexis caught it in her hand.

"You killed Ivar!" Alexis growled angrily. She pointed her other hand towards Alissa. "Evil Sphere." An orb of darkness crashed into the green haired girl hurtling her into the ground. Alexis charged towards her repetitively punching the girl. She gripped onto Alissa's neck. "Evil Spark." Alissa's body jerked violently as the purple electricity entered her. After only seconds, she was out cold.

Sweat rolled down Maverick's forehead as his palms started to shake. He knew Alissa was a highly capable Mage that even he sometimes found troubling to beat but Alexis was able to subdue her in mere moments. The odds of him being victorious was slim.

"This isn't over!" Maverick shouted in frustration. A blue flash occurred and he was gone, so was Alissa's body.

Alexis' body slowly reverted back into her human form. She collapsed to her knees, her chest raising up and down rapidly as she wheezed for breath. The dark haired man towered over once again.

"A-are you going to tell me who you are now?" Alexis reminded the man. He looked at her smugly.

"My name's Lucifer."

Alexis's eyes widened with shock. "Like the Devil?" He laughed at her before dissipating into the air like smoke.

"We should go home now." Hunter commanded. He walked towards Alexis before holding his hand out to her.

"Have you seen that man in the tuxedo before?" Alexis asked the maroon haired wizard. Hunter frowned. "The man talking to me before, do you know him?"

"There was no one with a tuxedo here."
