The Demon Child - Awakening

I jumped off my brother's platform and punched him in the face with my left, using the force to bring my right leg above me, but he was able to block that with his flame. I could feel my lightning begin to course through my veins, whilst I could see my brother's flames appear throughout his shadowy figure.

I opened my mouth, revealing my vampiric fangs, making a hissing sound like a cat before jumping back onto a sheet of ice, which I jumped off onto another sheet. When I was making sheets of hard ice to jump off, I summoned my chains, before doing something I haven't done in a while.

I decided to add a weapon, something that even I didn't know what or how to control, but I decided to do it. Very quickly, I cut my tongue and spat out the blood onto my hands, before summoning a weapon.

"A variant from thy weapon, reveal yourself to me. Show thyself to thee and become cold like thy soul. Thy hereby summons, in the sacrifice of two seals, eight circles and two handles, knuckle dust."

Two crosses appeared on my hands, in the circles where my chains appeared and were replaced with new weapons. Two sharp and ice blue knuckle dusters pulsing a white and black light through cracks appeared on my hand.

I jumped towards my brother and punched him again seeing a better reaction, launching him a few metres away at least. I jumped on another sheet of ice and punched him again in the stomach, making him spit out some blood and put him ever closer to the ground.

He was falling for a while before he regained his strength and looked at me menacingly. I just chuckled before falling towards him, at an almost lightning-fast speed, turning my muscles grey. We collide with each other's right fist, creating a shockwave around us, flocks of birds squawking in fear and flying away.

I took a look at his hands, to see that he enveloped them with a thin layer of blue flames.

"What are you waiting for, you know this is a battle you'll lose?" He said.

"Who said I was alone?"

Spears of blood then erupted from my brother's body and launched themselves in the air. The blood then formed in the body of Sashal before it came for me, impaling my arm, absorbing herself into my body.

Very quickly, Sashal made some wings out of two chains on my back, still leaving one underneath it. She made me fly high in the air, as I was struggling, for some reason my body burnt.

This hadn't happened before, but I knew what was happening, and no one else, not even my brother wouldn't know. I cooled myself down with my ice source and looked down at him. He himself made his fiery moth wings move and began to hover, looking down at me.

"You look like you're in a lot of pain, are you sure that was the right thing to do? Fusing with the woman you are betrothed to? Hurting you? And you were supposed to be the two most powerful in each other's arms in all of Antral!" My brother laughed.

Sashal and I looked at him, I could feel my throat curdling before we both replied, two voices coming from the same person.

"ɥEup ndpəɹ ʇHə ɥɐVə ı Mɥəu əVəu uOʍ" bnıʇ ı ʍonlp Wɥʎ" We both said.

"Fine, speak your bloodsucker language, as that'll all you'll be, a glorified leech!"

My body cooled and crackled with lightning, and I created the illusion of teleporting with my speed, before hitting my brother, feeling his jaw against my knuckles. I analyzed his reaction, seeing him not struggling at all, slowly his jaw moving to the left before blood began to spurt.

Looking at the blood, it was as though it wasn't moving at all. I saw the disconnection of the jaw, so I uppercut him before ramming my left elbow into his skull, making him look down. Afterwards, it all happened so fast, the next thing I knew was that my brother was two metres into the small mountain.

"Dyestral… Was that you?" I could hear her voice in my head, so I quickly closed my eyes and thought of what I was going to say.

"Yes, that was me moving at lightning speed, my... no. Our power, this is how powerful we are together,��� I clenched my fist before opening my eyes, to see that my brother was climbing out of the hole.

I saw his hands, drenched in blood before I saw his entire body. He had no jaw, being able to see only his top teeth and even down his throat. His head was caved in, going all the way down to his nose. Not only that, but the impact seemed to break most of his bones, seeing as both his legs were changing directions halfway.

Very slowly, I saw it, something that was on par. His limbs began to turn very quickly, returning to normal. Seeing a blacker mist appear, enveloping his head. After it dispersed, I was able to see that he was perfectly fine.

My brother grasped his throat and began to massage it. He began to hum, before whistling and then finally singing a tune.

"Do, Do Re Do, Do Re Mi Re Do, Do Re Mi Fa Mi Re Do," He coughed afterwards before clapping "So that's the limits of your power, I see, but can you keep it up Dyestral?"

Very slowly, it was becoming more and more visible that those were the wings of a dragonfly. The blue fire was only the veins, and then very quickly, developed into wings, the clearing's being filled with a transparent blue colour.

The wings began to move, and in a span of a few seconds, they were buzzing. I smiled and looked at my brother, telling him one thing in my mind.

'Bring it'
