As Kate left Brute fighting against his own creator, she swiftly flew to save her sister, that was being overwhelmed! Using her speed and the opportunity of both Rogue and Beauty being distracted, she sneaked behind Beauty and then…
"[Divine Soul Hacking]! [Circuit Takeover]!"
FLUOOOSH!
"HUH?! AAAAGGGH…!"
Beauty suddenly screamed in agony as countless blue circuits spread across her body from her back. Her internal circuits and other pieces of metal began to be hacked! However, Greenwood's technomancy was of a much higher level as of now.
It was impossible for Kate to take over these cyborgs in just a few seconds, and might need a lot of time to completely take control them, especially because they had brains and souls and weren't completely all just pieces of metal.
Nonetheless, this Circuit Takeover Spell was ideal, as it immediately disrupted their functions and made them go berserk!
"GRAAAAHHH! RAAAAHHH!!!"
Beauty started to scream, her eyes glowing red and blue constantly, as she flew away from Benladra and Kate and started spinning around the skies.
"H-Heeelp! I can't move as I want! M-My body doesn't respond! AAAAGGGH! RAAAAAGHHH…!"
Rogue immediately noticed the scene and was taken aback.
"What the…?! Beauty! What the hell are you doing?!" Rogue cried. "You can't just-"
CRAAAAASH!
Benladra's spear-like tail hit Rogue's chest and threw him away into the skies!
"Benladra!" Kate flew towards her big sister, as Benladra quickly turned back into her smaller, Ice Giant form to save her energy and strength.
POOF!
"Ugh… K-Kate…!" Benladra cried, too tired to move much more.
Kate quickly carried her sister in her tiny arms, flying away from the scene and descending into the seas.
"I-I need to go look for papa!" She thought, too exhausted to conjure any more magic already. "Benladra…! Benladra! Are you okay?!"
Her sister had already fallen unconscious in her arms. She immediately set her sight into the seas, about to arrive into its depths!
However…
SPLAAASH!
Brute surged from the seas with Greenwood sitting over his head, his enormous fists reached Kate in a single second!
"YOUUUU!!!"
"Uwaah!"
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
Kate evaded most attacks as she flew away from the barrage of fists, glancing back at Greenwood who had regained control over Brute incredibly quickly!
"You're really a problematic girl…" He said with a furious glare. "Your sister's already on her limits anyways, and so will you! Once you two are mine… Hehehe… HAHAHAHA! I'll create the strongest beings! Rogue! Beauty! What are you two clowns doing?! Chase after them!"
Rogue quickly kicked Beauty into regaining her senses, as the two swiftly flew down, surrounding Kate from above while Brute and Greenwood came from below.
Moving to the left or right wasn't an option either, as there were swarms of bug-like drones coming to her, which Greenwood was constantly summoning.
"Your pointless struggle's over!" Greenwood laughed. "Now! Give up and you might… one day see your papa again, I promise…" He spoke with a malicious intent.
"Ugh…" Kate struggled to even find a solution to this predicament… no, this imminent danger to her life and that of her sister.
Their friends, including Fuyu, were locked inside the island, about to be destroyed by the contracting barrier made of incredibly powerful lasers, and her father and mother were busy fighting the incredibly powerful Deep One.
"Now… Come quietly, I won't harm you as long as you act nicely." Greenwood offered his bug-like metallic hand to Kate. "Come…"
Kate tried to move back, only to find Brute there, to fly above, only to find the other two annoying bastards… it was futile.
There was no hope…
"P-Papa…" She cried.
"Your father is busy fighting one of my siblings." Laughed Greenwood. "He won't come back any time soon~ Now, come and-"
SPLAAAASH!
RUMBLE!
The seas trembled and moved wildly, suddenly, a gigantic silhouette appeared from below. And then, countless of other shadows, hundreds- no, thousands!
"ROOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRRR!!!"
A gigantic, ferocious roar emerged from the seas as hundreds of ocean water-made spears emerged from below, flying above and piercing through Greenwood's mecha army, while attacking everyone else with countless explosions!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The presence of this entity wasn't Drake exactly, but one of his sea-dwelling friends!
The enormous head of a gigantic sea snake surged from the oceans, covered in countless scars and sharp horns, ferociously glaring at her foes, who were harming her friend's child.
"Huh?! That damn Sea Snake again?!" Greenwood cried.
"Auntie Leviathan!" Said Kate smiling.
"GRYYYYSSHAAAAAAAHHH!!!"
SPLAAAAASH!
Leviathan furiously jumped off the seas with a thousand sea monsters at her command, immediately wrapping around the body of Brute and Greenwood together and forcing them down into the oceans!
"UUAAAGGH! LET GO OF ME!"
"AAAGHH…!"
SPLAASH! SPLAASH!
Her utterly titanic body tightly kept them underwater, as her magic constantly attacked them, attempting to break down their defenses.
"You damned sea beasts dare harm my creator?!" Beauty cried furiously, descending into the battle as she started slicing into pieces dozens of sea monsters with her sharp needle-like arms and legs.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Kate finally saw the opportunity, deciding to escape! She flew away as fast as she could while trying to sense where her father was!
However…
FLAAAASH!
Rogue appeared right at her left side, his beak smiling viciously.
"You're not going anywhere, brats!" He roared, rushing towards Kate and attacking her with several kicks from his talons!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"Uuugggh…!"
Kate generated a barrier made of metal around her, however, the barrier shattered into pieces instantly, throwing her away down into the seas below…
FLAAASH!
"I might as well just finish you two once and for all! My master didn't said you had to be alive anyways! Gyahahahaha!"
Rogue flew down, pointing his beak at Kate and Benladra! The little Kate felt her entire body stiffen as she was completely exhausted of energy, and was unable to evade or move away from this lethal blow.
"DIEEEEE!"
"Papa! Help! PAPAAAAAA!"
CRAAAAASSSHHH!!!
The sound of metal being torn apart echoed across the skies.
However, this wasn't produced by Rogue's beak finally piercing his targets.
But by a gigantic, golden trident piercing through Rogue's chest, slowly freezing his internal circuits!
"G-Graagh…!" Rogue vomited a mouthful of blood, as he noticed an utterly terrifying draconic presence appearing behind him.
"Papa's here."
