Battle… from “ACCENDO” 3rd Novel “The Light-Bearer Series” by Emily Guido

“Take my sword. We can hold them back.” Shane threw the sword to her while he shocked a Guard coming to attack her.
Sandra took the sword and hollered with no fear, “Affirmative!” She was smiling wide, and her eyes were open with determination. She presented her weapon like a Sword Master and began to slice through the Guards punching and kicking at the same time.
When the Guards attacked Shane, he shocked and bit them making them bleed.
Charmeine, Tabbruis and Shane were fighting to cover Sandra, but…
It was too late!
*****
In all but a second, a wind came through, and Sandra’s headless body fell to the ground of the Acropolis.
“NO!” Shane wailed, and his whole body lit up with glowed white heat.
Charmeine and Tabbruis were looking around for the murderer while they were covering for Shane.
A sinister laugh came across in a gust of wind. The squad saw Sandra’s head dangling by her hair in Pascal’s bloody hand.
“NO! SANDRA!” Shane growled ferociously. His eyes blazed with fire and his body glowed with electric current. He fell down on his hands and knees, like the air had been kicked out of him.
This was the most excruciating pain and anguish Charmeine had ever witnessed. Her heart was bleeding for her son and daughter.
Tabbruis stood beside Shane fighting off as many Guards as he could.
Neal, Thomas, Dmitri, and the Blood-Hunter they freed, came to their aid.
With vengeance in Charmeine’s heart, she shot off after Pascal.
He saw her eyes glowed white with revenge. He dropped Sandra’s head and vanished.
Dmitri collected Sandra’s bloody torso and head while fighting off the Guards.
Charmeine flew after Pascal, and his speed was nothing for her flight. He tried to hide behind one of the many large stones around the Acropolis. She flew to the ground and sneered, “Pascal you will die,” and threw lightening which blew through the rock.
In an instant of superhuman speed, Pascal ran beside Charmeine, and put her hands in a vice grip like he had done on the terrace.
Charmeine couldn’t believe she was in this position again. Her hands were sparking, but she couldn’t throw a shock.
Pascal cupped her chin, and she withered away from him. In his English accent which sickened her, he said, “Charmeine, my sweet little Angel. I do not want to kill you. I want you and I come to an alliance,” as he swept his fingers over her chin.
“Alliance?  Never!  You are going to pay for your crimes in the Lake of Fire and Torment in Hell.”
“You will yield Charmeine.”
With a big dose of sarcasm she said, “Didn’t you listen when you were told to go to the GAP? You look like Little Jack Horner…”
Pascal tugged at her arms violently.
She winced with pain.
“Ah, you can joke all you want my darling. However, you do not know how great my power is. I can murder every Elder Council member if I chose to. I am the most powerful Blood-Hunter on the Earth. If you and I join, we can rule in peace.”
Illumination came across her face, and she trembled in disgust. “Yes, now I get it… the Prophecy… You want to be the King of Darkness and Night? However, you don’t want peace. You want world domination over all…Blood-Hunters, Light-Bearers and humans. I am nothing but a stepping stone in your lust for power.”
“It is only fitting Charmeine. I am the most powerful Elder, and you are the most powerful Light-Bearer. If we become…” and he raked his eyes over her, “intimate, then we can marry and rule together. We would be invincible.  Even GOD could not have dominion over us.” He reached his hand over chin, down her neck, to the top of her chest and growled in desire.
She was stunned. To even suggest this was sacrilegious and blasphemous to God. She was also revolted. Then she felt his vile hands wonder on her body. She knew he was ready to attack her. With as much calmness as she could muster, she said, “You are truly insane. God is all-powerful and even thinking about it is wicked.  You are truly an agent of Lucifer. Now, I am sure of my mission on Earth… you must die!”
Pascal growled in anger and tightened his grip which made waves of pain in her hands and arms.
“You smarmy worm, I have my King. No one or no ‘THING’ will ever take his place.” With pride and dignity she said, “I am Mrs. Tabbruis Hunter. He is the true ‘King of Darkness and Night’. We are joined on Earth as we were in Heaven.”
Just then Pascal could sense her heart was not beating right.  He sensed her relationship was in trouble because her heart skipped a beat whenever she mentioned her husband. “Oh tsk, tsk Charmeine, what is the matter? Are you having trouble with the hubby? Has he failed you? Now with me, you will be totally satisfied.” He put his long slender nose to her neck and smelled her scent. He rubbed his body up against her.
She became nauseous and the bile rode up to the top of her neck. She realized that he intended to rape her right then, and she became terrified at the thought.
“I have wanted you ever since the first minute I touched you. I have dreamed of your body and how you will enjoy me.”  His eyes became black with lust.
With all the bravado she could muster, she yelled, “Never will you lay one finger on me, you filthy pig!”
“Marry me or you will be preparing your precious Tabbruis’ death shroud. He will not live long, if you refuse me,” and ground his thighs against her.
“Pascal, I will see your dead body on the ground before anything happens to Tabbruis. I promise you, this is the last time you will ever lay a finger on me.” With that, she bent down, swiped his legs, and he fell like a slimy fish on the ground. She stood away from him as her hands threw electric currents to his body. “Ha! Those eight buck Judo lessons paid off.”
Just then, Charmeine heard the squad yelling while battling the Guards, and for a second, she became worried.
This distraction was all Pascal needed to run.
She flew in the air after him, but he disappeared. She hovered over the Acropolis looking for him.
“My Queen! Look out!” Neal shouted.
With that, she felt it… a red hot pain sliced through her, but she did not know what it was. The hotness went from her heart through her shoulder. She looked down and swiped her fingers where it hurt. She saw her hand was saturated in blood and smelled the familiar metallic aroma. She realized an arrow had gone through her body with the end sticking out in front. Still flying and throwing lightning, she could only do use her right hand. Like in slow motion, she started to lose power and plummeted to the Earth.
She saw Pascal smiling and laughing waiting for her to fall with a crossbow in his hands.
Like a hunter would wait for the duck or quail to hit the ground, he mouthed the words, “His death shroud. Tabbruis will die.”
