A sigh of relief left me when I saw Anti, still standing on both legs and other than being mildly wounded looking fine. Dark was standing in front of him, looking slightly more wounded and both his dolls standing beside him.
I felt Sam moving around in my eye socket all of a sudden. What's wrong buddy? I asked as the Septiceye looked up, the void kept cracking, small shatters falling off when suddenly I realized a huge piece detached and started falling off. I didn't have time to react when I felt a shockwave push me out of the way.
"Are you okay?" A hand reached out to help me get up.
"Yeah..." I grabbed it, looking up at Anti. "Thanks for saving mE..."
The impact wasn't significant, but it was painful nonetheless... especially in the state I was in at the moment.
"Dark... why are yOu still here..." I sighed, letting go of Anti's hand. "This place is collapsiNg... Just leave."
"You really think this moron is listening?" Anti huffed, crossing his arms.
"Who are you calling a moron?" Dark growled, fixing his tie.
"You. There is nothing to do here anymore!" Anti called. "We can solve this fight once we're out of here... Do you want to die that badly?"
"The only ones dying here are the two of you." Dark replied calmly.
Anti shook his head.
"DarK..." I sighed, approaching the man.
Let me take over. Crystal noted all of the sudden.
But- I stopped.
Do it. Crystal stepped closer to Dark, standing in front of him. She placed her hands on his cheeks. "Please go, save yourself and your people... There's no need for everyone to die." I noticed her hands were glowing as she lowered them.
Dark turned to the girls. "We're leaving!"
"But master, we can take care of them!" Alisia called.
"We're not done!" Emma called.
"We're done." Dark hissed, grabbing both by their arms before pulling them away.
I heard Alisia call in the distance. "But the exit is gone!"
"I am still able to teleport." The demon replied.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Emma called.
"We'll make sure the others evacuate and leave as well." Dark replied.
Their voices became more and more distant until I couldn't hear them anymore.

"How are you doing?" Anti asked.
Crystal shook her head. "This body is useless... it won't survive for long."
"I see..." The man sighed. "I should've noticed that necklace earlier... I could have saved you two."
I shook my head, realizing I was in control again. "This body has beEn dying for a while noW." I observed my palms. "Even before I toOk it from Crystal."
"Is it because she used to be a magician?" Anti asked.
I nodded, standing at the edge of the road, the void behind me. "I think she was aRound 205 when I was born..." I paused. "This body is at least 623 yeArs old now." I shrugged.
"Well, you look good for a 623 years old." The demon smirked.
"oH, shUt up." I sighed, but still smiling somewhat as I brushed a strand of hair to behind my ear.
