Chapter 257 - Dancing In The Dark

Luna smiled, her eyes glowing with pride as she looked across the destroyed city. "Even after all this damage, they still managed to get defeated! What weaklings - I don't even know where Alex went!"

Suddenly, she heard a shadow in the distance, where the thick fog sat. The shadow was holding a staff, aiming it at Luna. "How the hell is he not dead!? I sniped him over 100 times, he should've decomposed by now! These people are really persistent when it comes to battles!" Right before her eyes, the cloud of fog opened, showing Alex's everlasting grin. "Sorry for the wait - I just had to go check on something. You thought I would retreat from the battle, huh? Well, jokes on you, I can't retreat! Apparently I won't be a part of Team ENTITY if I do!"

Luna scoffed. "You idiot, just DIE! I've shot you so many times, yet only one percent of my shots have made it! You just won't fall, why do you keep coming back every single defeat you face!?" 

Alex laughed, looking right into Luna's soul. "It's because I made a decision to join Team ENTITY - and I won't let that fade right before my eyes.

Flashback

Suddenly, Kevin emerged from the shadows of the evening sun, running up to Samantha and Alex. "Samantha, how was your ba-" Kevin froze. Looking at the weeping Alex, he smiled. "So it's really you, Alex…" he exclaimed. Putting out his hand for a handshake, Kevin followed his friendly gesture with a grin. "Ready to be the sixth member of Team ENTITY?" Alex's weeping exponentially expanded. "YES! I'M FINALLY RETURNING TO CRYSTAL CITY!" he celebrated, echoing lower into the mountains. Kevin and Samantha smiled. "Welcome to the team!" they both said in unison.

Now, Team ENTITY had welcomed its sixth member - Agent Blue had joined the faithful group!

"You expect me to let my dream slip away just because of a puny battle!?" he screamed. "I've known each and every one of them for years, BEFORE my adventure across the world! Now, that voyage has ended - I'm forever a member of Team ENTITY!" 

Luna blinked her eyes. "Hypnosis." she said.

Right before he fell under the spell, Alex closed his eyes to avoid Luna's success. "Although I'm blind without my eyes open, I can still see the aura of your soul! That'll make it easier to poke out both your eyes, then finish you once and for all!"

Luna smiled. "Then let's see if you can dodge my Eye Sniper!" she exclaimed, blinking her eyes again. 

Alex flipped over the bullet faster than Luna could keep up, then ran across Hamila to counter her attack, landing a blow that wiped out half of the city. "Not only did he dodge with his eyes closed, but he also countered!? What are you?" she asked.

"I'm the God Of Fire," he replied.

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 45 - Dancing In The Dark

"How are you able to see the path of my bullets through your closed eyes?" Luna screamed, devoting all her power to trying to shoot Alex in a fatal spot. "Last time, I had you beat! Why can't I beat you now!" 

Alex rolled his eyes angrily, using his hand to create an ember of fire. "Since I'm a god, my flames are slightly expanded… neat, am I right? I can finish you in five blows tops!" 

Suddenly, Luna felt something snap in her body - as if a bone that was fatal to her wellbeing had been destroyed. She wobbled around, trying to continue sniping Alex, but it was no use - she had hit her limit with her sniping power. "Now THAT'S WHAT I CALL AN OPENING!" Alex exclaimed, striking Luna's chest with his flame. "I'll blow you off Hamila entirely - you AND your family!" he exclaimed. 

Luna wobbled on the battlefield, her face still focused on Alex. "I… can't use my eyes anymore… how the hell are you so STRONG!?" she exclaimed, picking up a knife and running at Alex. "I'll stab out your eyes before you can stab out mine, idiot! You're nothing without your hands or that annoying staff!"

Alex dodged Luna's knife, grabbed hold of her right hand, and slammed her across the ground. "Attack expectation at its finest." he muttered. "I told you that I would return to Hamila one day with my friends, and become the strongest person I can possibly be! Now, look at where you're at right now! Standing defeated after the battle right before the God Of Fire!"

Luna winced. "You wouldn't kill a woman - you'll be forever dishonored if you even affect my life with one of your weak ass flames! It's been five years since I had you in this position, so DON'T BE A PUSSY!"

Alex sighed. "Very well… I guess I won't kill you."

Luna smiled. "That's what I though-"

Alex had impaled Luna's heart with his hand of fire. Seconds after impact, she fell on the ground with no signs of life. "I won't kill you, but the God Of Fire would kill anyone that stands in his way."

The battle of Hypnosis vs. Fire was over. The winner? Alex of Team ENTITY, master of fire.
