Hellbound With You (WN)

On the ground, everyone could do nothing else but watch, open mouthed and pray to whatever gods there be to be on their side and help Zeres regain his sanity and stop this futile battle. The only thing that was making them from losing all hope was the sight of Alexander seemingly enjoying the fierce battle and fighting the demons like a madman. He was like a beast that had at long last being let loose from his cage and now he was enjoying the hunt.

He had tried to destroy Zeres ’ vortex by calling a very strong wind lance to slash at it, but the wind was swallowed by the blackhole. He tried to reach Zeres too, but Zeres ’ demons were hell bent in preventing him from coming anywhere close, much less touching their summoner.

At one point, Alexander looked down at where Zeke was standing. And as though there was a wordless communication between them, Alex stopped attacking Zeres and he concentrated on his fight against the demons.

…

Everything seemed to be pointing to and just going towards one thing alone. Madness. Everyone and everything are spiralling down the rabbit hole into lunacy. Friend fighting against friend. Good guy turned into a demonic rouge. Stable environment gone haywire and on its merry way to global destruction if nothing was done to stop it.

Those on the ground seem to feel the stirrings of helplessness and hopelessness as things continued on and no progress was made with Zeres, Alex or Ezekiel. Were they supposed to lie down and accept things as it comes? Were they expected to surrender their lives just because Zeres had decided on things on his own and they had no say in the matter at all? That is so unfair! However, absolute power triumphs over all and that was how the world works.

Watching the half dragon and demons literally shook the earth as they exchanged powerful blows in the sky, it all felt like a nightmare. Unfortunately, this nightmare had moved from an imaginary thing into the real world that they cannot avoid. It was as though the world had descended into madness together with Zeres.

Kyle and Lilith could not even begin to understand and process what their eyes were seeing. It was obvious they were telling themselves that this was probably a very, very bad dream. One that they would very soon wake up from and would be able to put it behind them with a laugh. They prayed and wished that it would be so.
