Attack
Serena sat in her room, focused on drawing. She was waiting for her brothers, father, and Giselle.
Though she had grown closer to Giselle, Serena still hesitated to call her 'mom' because of the traumatic memories of Hestia hurting her whenever she used that word.
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
*thinking about her past life*
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
(Why mom killed me? Because my powers lost?)
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
(Mom never liked me. What did I do?)
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
*continues drawing*
Serena's world was still steeped in fear, trauma, and sadness. She overthought every little thing, constantly worrying that someday everything might return to the way it was in the past.
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
*hears noise and footsteps*
As Serena was engrossed in her drawing, a sharp whoosh cut through the air, followed by the thud of a knife embedding itself in the wall beside her.
The window shattered with a loud crack. A man in black robe appeared at the window. He looked at Serena with a menacing gaze.
Assassin
*in slurred voice* Divine Saintess
Assassin
I'm here to take you.
Assassin
*walks towards her while grinning*
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
*terrified*
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
(Who.. Who is it?? Dad? Where is dad?)
The music box started spinning alerting everyone of the danger. A red lace flowed towards Serena, circling around.
Meanwhile, the ring gifted by Louis glowed in dark blue colored which made the assassin close his eyes.
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
*invisible*
Assassin
*looking around in confusion* W.. Where did she disappear??
Assassin
*sniffs* Mana scent
Assassin
*angry* Did she vanish somewhere else? Ugh!!!
Assassin
But what if she is here? And I can't see her??
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
*trembling* (No.. Please... Go)
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
(where are you dad??)
Assassin
*swinging the sword around the room while searching*
Serena's heart pounded in her chest as the sounds of clashing swords and piercing screams echoed through the mansion.
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
*starts crying loudly in fear*
Assassin
*grins and looks at the direction from where he can hear the sound*
Assassin
Ohh!! So you are hiding there.
Assassin
*laughing* I'm coming for you Saintess~
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
*crying loudly*
Serena Ashford/Fl/5 y.o
*taps the necklace continuously*
Eric Ashford/ Fl's 1st brother
*appears in front of her*
Eric was holding a sword. His arm bleeding from a deep cut. He quickly stood in front of Serena.
Eric Ashford/ Fl's 1st brother
Sorry sweetie, there were so many assassins. Dad is trying hard to come to you.
The assassin hurled a blazing fireball at Eric, but Eric quickly raised a protective barrier, deflecting the fiery attack just in time.
Eric Ashford/ Fl's 1st brother
(A mage?)
Assassin
*continues attacking him*
Eric Ashford/ Fl's 1st brother
*defends himself*
The assassin swiftly closed the distance between them, slashing with a dagger. Eric dodged the attack and countered with a sharp blow from the hilt of his sword, knocking the dagger out of the assassin's hand.
With a quick lunge, Eric drove his foot into the assassin's stomach, sending him stumbling back.
The necklace around Serena's neck started glowing, and it teleported her to Giselle's side.
