Back in the valley, Fatima pulled out a radio from his pocket, turning the microphone on and broadcasting the following message to the entire island: "I have defeated Kevin of Team ENTITY. Now, all we have to do is annihilate all the other members of Team ENTITY and restrain Gerald, and then we'll recover from this unexpected infiltration. Kevin was in very bad condition, so I don't expect him to get up anytime soon - YOU HEAR THAT, TEAM ENTITY!"
Michael, listening to the radio in the forest, scoffed as he fell onto his knees. "Kevin… is dead?" he muttered, shaking as he tried his best not to cry. Sara, on the other hand, teleported down to Michael and held up a gun to his head. "Now, you have no choice but to surrender to me! Your leader is dead, just let me take you in and we can forget this ever happened!" However, outside the forest sat Gerald and Vani, who had heard the announcement while both exchanging fatal blows. For a few seconds, both sides sat in silence before Vani cackled hysterically, landing a hit on Gerald, who was off guard mentally and physically. "You were never a match for your family, Gerald! Let me capture you, you won't be escaping my sight anytime soon!"
Gerald clenched his fists, slowly losing consciousness as Vani stomped on him as hard as she possibly could. "I'll stomp you to death if you don't obey me! I'm in control here, not you!"
Now, it looked like Team ENTITY had reached a battering defeat - everyone was losing, even Alex and Samantha, due to Kevin's reported death.
However, they would be shocked to know the actual truth to what was currently happening to Kevin.
Thousands of miles away on the island of Hamila, multiple battles rage on as Team ENTITY, the lead of the assault, tries to save their second-strongest member from one of the most feared clans in the world of entities, the notorious Romanti Clan. Meanwhile, there are other subplots across the seas, like Jayden and Jorgen meeting up, scenes in the Land Of Trila, the League Of Heaven situation, and much more to add in this captivating saga. You're reading ENTITY VOLUME 10: CHASING GERALD!
Volume 10, Chapter 43 - The Execution Of Kevin
"I've taken Michael of Team ENTITY hostage!" Sara exclaimed through the radio, catching Fatima's attention almost immediately. "He's decided to turn over to our side and become a Romanti, I love people like him!" Fatima smiled, thinking of the power he could reach with all the remaining members of Team ENTITY under his control. "Bring them to Romanti Castle - we'll brainwash them as well!"
Suddenly, another line intercepted the radio, leaving both Fatima and Sara perplexed. "Lord Fatima, something has happened! Gerald Romanti has disappeared from Hamila! I just looked away for a split second, and he was gone!" Fatima froze. "Vani, you let Gerald get away…? Now, we can't win this battle at all! If Kevin reemerges, then it's going to power the spirit of all of his team, and they'll overpower us easily! He's going to drown soon, so by the time Gerald gets to him, they'll both be at our feet!"
Vani cackled into the radio, feeling herself becoming more powerful over all of Team ENTITY. "Their spirits are broken - they're just nothing but mere, useless toys now! Who would be dumb enough to possibly save all of them with the current circumstance-"
"Kaelan, you have to get him back on the battlefield quickly! Everyone else was defeated after he left, and he can't use NULL at all anymore! Even worse, he hasn't awakened his base power!"
Kaelan sighed, looking out the window at the deadly ocean. "You guys would've died if I didn't save you… and you did help me back in Death Desert. After you guys left, I got invited to join their army and climbed the ranks so quickly, nobody could keep up! Now, we've come this far and you're the ones in need…"
"Don't put it that way, we helped you when you were at your lowest!" Gerald angrily exclaimed. "He's losing blood fast, just please heal me and him up quickly!"
Kaelan nodded. "I'll have you guys back on the battlefield within fifteen MINUTES!"
Hamila
Back on the island of Hamila, there were few remaining Team ENTITY members that were still standing. Michael, who had been quote unquote "taken hostage" by Sara Romanti, still had an undefined battle outcome. On the other side of the island, Samantha was continuing to battle with her opponent, fighting the pain of Kevin being gone as well as Gerald's absence. Then, Kyle and Noah, who had met up shortly after the announcement. They rushed out to the sea, unaware that both Kevin and Gerald were on the Death Desert battleship undergoing special treatment for their wounds. Spooky, however, was nowhere to be found…
Samantha's body continued to lie on Xal's sticky web, his face filled with excitement as he continued to torture her to death. "You're mine now! All of your friends have been defeated, and there's no coming back from something like this! Now, I'm not like my other comrades, so I'll KILL YOU RIGHT N-"
A giant claw ripped through the web Samantha lied on, freeing her almost instantly without any wounds being cast. "What the hell was that!?" she exclaimed, looking behind her and noticing that Spooky was right behind her, fighting Xal off alongside her.
Samantha smiled, wiping the smear of blood that covered her eyelid. "Kevin wouldn't die so easily - he'll always get back up again, don't expect him to suffer such a puny defeat! He told us to never retreat, which is the reason I'm still daring to stand against you! I'll do anything for my friends even if they're idiots, I won't surrender to the likes of you either way!" Xal smiled, noticing that he was in Samantha's dimension again. "You're just giving me a chance to break through again! You couldn't possibly land even a hit on me with your long distance atta-"
Samantha ran right up on Xal, holding both of her fists, full of ice, up to the air. "Who said it was all long distance!?" she exclaimed, smashing half of Xal's ribs and causing him to collapse onto the ground in pure agony. "How the hell did you get a hit so critical on me!? My webs won't even work on you no matter what! Who are you!?"
Samantha frowned, pinning Xal down to the ground with her ice. "You may not know it yet, but after I leave Hamila, they'll be hailing me with two aliases - Samantha, and the Queen Of ICE!"
Samantha's fist went right through Xal's skull, breaking through her own dimension and sending him flying across the sky. However, she wasn't finished. She had put ice on her forehead, jumped up into the sky, and used her final finisher to send Xal zooming into the ocean at full speed.
"I guess this is it." she inferred. "Headbutt Of Ice!" she exclaimed.
Seconds later, Xal was sent flying across the ocean, his body still immobilized from the loss of ribs. As he plunged into the ocean, that was the last trace the Romanti Clan would ever see of him again…
The battle Spider vs. Ice had ended. Who would have thought that Ice would penetrate right through a spider, hm?
