"So you mean you went to the underworld even when you were pregnant?" Ariel asked after Ava narrated the battle.
"Yes. My husband and I closed the gate with the swords of life and destruction" Ava said.
"Wow" Ariel muttered and Ava smiled..
"It's time to train" Ava said and dropped the book on a block of wood.
"Good" Ariel said and stretched her neck.
"Before I start, leave my childish side behind. I am very deadly, I won't hold back on you. You have to learn how to fight the hard way. Your heretic side would be unlocked when you die but not now. For now, you need to know how to fight" Ava said with a cold face and Ariel's eyes widened.
'What happened to her happy face?'
"I am not childish outside don't you worry, I only do it with my close friends so don't misjudge me. It's time for me to be serious. Attack me with all you've got." Ava added and Ariel nodded getting ready to fight.
Ava gave her a cold smirk her eyes glowing golden before speeding to her giving her a punch to the stomach.
Ariel flew back rolling down the hill. She dugged her nails into the ground to prevent her from rolling further.
She exhaled and stood before looking at Ava whose gaze was unreadable.
"Isn't this the lady that was smiling few minutes ago?" Ariel asked herself and her eyes widened when Ava sped to her punching her but she joined her arms together blocking the hit. Her legs were moving down cos of the power Ava used.
"You want to kill me?" Ariel asked moving away from her.
"I told you, the only way to teach you how to fight is by fighting with you" Ava said.
"But this is not a fight, it's you trying to beat the hell outta me" Ariel said and Ava let out a chuckle.
"You're the one choosing not to fight back even when you know you can. I told you I'd attack you with everything I've got. Attack me as well" Ava said and Ariel bit her lips.
"But I don't know how to fight" Ariel said and Ava groaned running her fingers through her hair. She thought of something before smirking.
"What was I thinking asking to fight you when you're such a weak ass? You couldn't even protect your mum and dad and I doubt you can protect your aunt so how do I expect you to defend yourself against my attacks? It's so ironic, isn't it?" Ava asked with a little laugh and Ariel frowned deeply.
"How do....." Ava cut her short and spoke.
"I'm Ava. There's nothing I won't know" Ava said and Ariel folded her fist.
"Just go home. You aren't worthy to fight with me. And I suggest you leave the country so that at least your aunt will be safe since you're doing a horrible job in protecting her" Ava said and tears began welling up in her eyes.
"Leave now else Taylor would be the next to die and she would die in your presence. You wouldn't and can't be able to do anything from stopping her demise. Do you know why?" Ava said and asked coming closer to Ariel.
"It's cos you're a weak daughter" Ava whispered and Ariel closed her eyes before punching Ava's face.
She flew backwards and hit her back hard on the wall which made her smirk.
Ariel opened her eyes and ran towards her kicking her face but Ava dodged and did a front flip hitting Ariel in the process which made her stagger.
"Incedia" Ariel said pointing her hands at Ava and a huge fire ball came out of her palms going to hit Ava. Ava smirked and let the fire burn her.
Ariel exhaled as she watched the fire burn till it didn't burn again. Her eyes widened when she didn't see a single scratch on Ava.
"Don't use your powers, fight me. Hand to hand battle" She said and Ariel ran towards her punching her but Ava dodged and punched Ariel. Ariel caught her hand and flipped her over before placing a knee on her stomach.
"I can protect my aunt" Ariel said and Ava smirked.
"Prove it" She said and threw Ariel off her.
Ariel flew back hitting a tree there and falling to the ground. She looked up with a bleeding nose and lips.
She stood up shakily and Ava sped to her but she moved away before quacking her but Ava did a backflip.
Ariel moved away from her breathing heavily and her eyes turned black with black stripes going around her face.
"Mors certa" Ariel muttered her palm glowing red and she pointed it at Ava.
Ava's eyes widened when blood began escaping her nostrils and her mouth.
"The fuck?!! Ariel stop!!" Ava yelled falling on her knees coughing out black blood.
White teleported behind Ariel and elbowed her on the back of her neck, hard.
Ariel's eyes widened and her eyes went back to normal before she fell to the ground loosing consciousness.
"What the hell was that?" Ava asked wiping the blood on her nose and mouth.
"There's a dark spirit inside her. She's dangerous to herself and everyone around her. She has to get control of the dark spirit inside her. We have to help her control it." White said and Ava looked at Ariel who was still unconscious.

Lucian blocked the punch Conrad threw and kicked him making him step back.
"So tell me, when do you plan on making the mating bond?" Lucian asked and Conrad threw a punch at him which he dodged.
"It's none of your business" He said and did a front flip headbutting Lucian. Lucian staggered backwards before chuckling.
"It kinda is since you almost killed my wife's best friend" He said and Conrad scoffed.
"When she's ready" Conrad said.
"What if she's never ready?" Lucian asked and kicked him making him fly backwards.
"She will be" Conrad said standing up slowly.
"She is a heretic and I'm a shadow demon. What a wonderful pair" Conrad added with a smirk.
"You know there's a dark spirit in her. If you don't take it out of her, she will kill you" Lucian said and Conrad frowned.
"How do you know?"
"White told me" Lucian replied.
"She can't kill me Lucian so don't you worry."
"Yes she can. Not by her will tho, the dark spirit will take over and when that happens, she looses control" Lucian said and Conrad looked elsewhere.
"You guys should stay a little longer so Gorya can tell us what to do" Lucian added and Conrad looked at him.
"We have to leave this place, her aunt will look for her same as her friends. We'd come back another time" Conrad said and sped back to the mansion.
Lucian exhaled before speeding after him.
