Chapter 150: Sneaky
"Are you guys okay?" Nessa asked and Dalia lowered her head.
"Yes, we are okay, thank you," She responded and Nessa raised her paw and patted the girl on the head.
"It's okay, Dalia, these things happen at times," She said as Dalia looked at her and saw her paws were bleeding.
"We are getting in the way," She replied and Nessa chuckled.
"No, of course not, we'll talk later, let me finish this thing off or it'll heal again," She said, and Dalia smiled before Nessa returned her attention to the growling beast.
"You are strong," She said as she approached the beast, and it jumped up in the air, and she chuckled.
Unexpectedly the beast disappeared throught the shadows and before Nessa could sense it, it appeared beside her and roared.
Nessa was struck by the beast across the field, and as she stood up with his claw mark by her side, the others gasped. She sighed and looked at it, her eyes glowing red with rage as the wound it gave her started to burn while bleeding.
"I will kill you," She mumbled as it rushed towards her for another attack and she raised her tails up.
Nessa's tail grabbed onto the beasts limbs and she repeatedly slammed it into the ground more than once and the black flames appeared on the tip of her tails, spreading onto the beast, while pinning it down and the flames formed a ball around it, trapping it within and Riki smiled as Nessa released the beast and her eyes glowed orange as natural flames formed a circle around her black flame dome.
"Now, that's an attack one won't be able to survive that easily," Riki said and Zilrud smiled as the black flames began glowing white and Nessa looked at the others and they pulled back as it exploded, causing a beam of light to hit the sky and the earth to shake a bit, then everything went back to normal and Nessa sighed as she notices ashes from the beast disappearing and she sighed in relief before looking back at the leader of the Orcs who roared as he broke free from Nessa's grasp and all the other Orcs began staring at her.
'Are they all under the same command?' She wondered.
[Yes, master, they are aware of what they are doing but are unable to control their bodies.]
"I see, and the only way to stop this is to kill their controller, but because the leader is so badly affected, I might have to kill him as well?" Nessa inquired.
[I know it's harsh, but this is what needs to be done or a lot of people will die here, which I know you don't want.]
"I don't; in order to protect them, I will do whatever is necessary." She mumbled before sighing as the Orc leader was about to attack her, but Riki stopped him with his weapon and the others fought off the rest of Orcs while Dalia and the chiefess approached the Orc leader and surrounded him.
"Guys, don't kill him, there's something wrong with them, just fight them off, a lot of them died already," She said, and they bowed their heads to her.
"Got it," Riki said, and Nessa looked up in the sky, but there was no sign of the guy who was controlling them.
'Where has he gone?' As she looked around, she wondered as the others fought the Orc leader.
They were hurt, but they didn't back down because they were told not to kill him; if he didn't return to normal after Nessa killed their controller, she would decide whether or not to kill him.
"Where are you?" She asked and when she spotted him in the sky, she disappeared and hid within the shadows so he couldn't see her and Riki smiled as Dalia released energy from her sword, sending the Orc leader flying along with a few other Orcs and the chiefess helped fight them off along with the chief who was hurt but strong enough to fight and his son helped him.
Everyone defended themselves as well as those around them who were unable to defend themselves due to a lack of strength.
While they were fighting the sun rose up and shone brightly on all of them and the Orc leader covered his eyes after it shone brightly in his eyes, the very sunlight distracted the guy in the sky and at the very same time, Nessa jumped up in the air and wrapped her tail around him and pulled him down with her and his eyes widened as he stared at her and she growled at him.
"Looks like she got him," Yanka said and Vill nodded.
"She is quite sneaky," Vill replied and Yanka chuckled.
"She is more than just sneaky, I wonder whether she will kill him or not," Yanka said as Nessa's eyes glowed bright gold while staring at the guy as he looked at her directly in the eyes.
"You have a real form, this isn't it, what are you afraid of?" He asked with a smirk as she stood tall before him.
'I can transform into my true form, but maybe I'll use that to investigate who you're working for,' Nessa thought as she growled at him and he scoffed.
"I know you are not that strong so I am just going to ask you this once, who are you?" Nessa asked in a stern and heavy tone, and the others looked at her because she sounded like a man.
"Am I hearing properly or does she actually sound like a guy?" The chief asked and the chiefess glanced at him and chuckled as the Orc leader was about to attack them and Nessa wrapped her tails around his arms and they looked at her as she continued bleeding and Riki sighed before attacking the leader, injuring his legs and arm causing him to fall to the ground then she sighed and released him then Riki bowed his head and Nessa looked back at the guy who had them under his control and he stood up then took his mask off with his eyes glowing red and black.
