In a blink of an eye the 2 and a half years had passed.he group had intensified their training and the month before they would actually fight they had trained with insane fervor till they had reached their utmost limits. Advice from the instructor was to rest 4 days before the match and halt the training. Those last 4 days were filled with stress, knowing they would have to fight for their lives soon did not allow them to simply rest.
None the less here they where. Walking down the hallway to a room filled with smaller magical circles.
“Each of you take place in one of the magical circles.” The instructor ordered them. “Now be prepared, you may not be moved as a group you can be put there alone in the arena, in pairs or in smaller groups.”
Nervous twitching could be seen throughout the room. No more practice fights no more magical revivals. If they died here they died for good. Every single one of them were fidgeting. Even Luniera was checking the edge of her sword for the 6th time.
“Work together if possible, Keep an eye on your surroundings. The arena is huge and you wont be able to see the people watching you.” The instructor looked at them and gave them his last words.
“May you all come back, or die trying. Be brave, fight well. Above all may lady luck be with you all.”
As if those last words had sent a signal the room was illuminated in a blinding flash of white light. With a quick zooming sound the room was empty.
“And may the demon's take those who put you here.” The instructor whispered with a excruciatingly sad look on his face.
Poof. Grey fell lightly on the ground. The soft rustle of the wind could be heard running through the tree's. The gentle sensation of grass could be felt under his bare feet. He quickly clapped his hands and used the ripple the sound created to see wat was around him. It was one of the tricks he had learned along the way. The sound of a clap passed further than normal sounds and increased his vision range but only to the larger objects.
Lucky for him he was not alone. He could see his precious friends around him converging on his location. The sound of the clap the others had grown familiar to had led them all straight to him.
“Those claps of yours really do make an incredibly hard sound.” Luniera said appearing from the trees. She had definitely grown more beautiful during the last few years. She had a small waist and slightly larger hips. Although she was not even close to busty she still had some curves to her chest. The loose shirt she was wearing only seemed to add to her sensuality.
“Indeed if i would not have known better i would have been certain that this came hand in hand with some kind of magical incantation” Oak came from another side actually a bit hard to see from between the tree's. The Ent had grown tremendously over the years and was now a 2 meter tall giant. He only looked more intimidating With his huge shield and the heavy mace he always carried around.
“ In times like this however it is quite usefull” Sansieri joined the group. Unlike Luniera she had definitely grown more busty over the years. Her hair long and thick was being tickled by the wind only making her appear more enticing than ever.
“You should teach me that clap!” Pebbles said appearing with a grin on his face swinging down from a tree. He had not grown an inch in the last years and was still the same happy-go-lucky monkey he always was.
“Most definetly not, my head would suffer for days” The stoic Six walked in his expression serious as always.
“We can always chuck our axes at his head if he does it too much” Tatt's said wielding his twin axes with enthusiasm. Tatt's like Grey had grown large over the years. Both of them where about 180 centimeters now and Tatt's had a very bulky build. Even if he was not as big as Grey himself who had turned into a walking mountain after all the strength training he had done.
“He will dodge one” Fog said twirling her sword around a bit and shifting her shield.
“He will definitely dodge another aswell, fast little monkey that he is” Mist said with a grin testing her bowstring. The twins still looked identical when they grew. Both had luscious green hair and full curvy body. Their bodies alone would make them the envy of any woman. Their faces did their bodies proud aswell. Smooth features and green reptile eyes did somehow not distract from their beauty.
“I can always chuck my knives at him again” Snowflake said smiling. Snowflake had grown over the years he was now about 175 centimeters and had a lean skinny build. His hair he had grown longer and now passed to his lower back.
With the group here together alot of them felt more relieved. The relief however did not last long the quite of the dark moonles night was pierced by screams soon after. The sound was to far away for Grey to be able to see anything, the group didn't even hesitate and rushed in the direction of the scream.

First it was the one scream. But it was soon joined by more. Agony, fear and pain could be heard in the screams that spread themselves through the forest. The scene the group stumbled upon would scar their memories for life.
Before them they saw a seen that should only be visible in the deepest and darkest places of hell.
Blood, so much blood. The grass all around the clearing had turned crimson with it. body parts strewn around with organs and intestines accompanying them. They saw Triclops with only the upper half of his body remaining trying to crawl away with a face smeared in tears and blood. Horror was the only emotion on his face horror and disbelief. The monster that had inflicted all this carnage was on his heels.
The creature was unlike anything they had ever heard of. It had multiple limbs sticking out at random places on its body it walked on 4 hideously shaped legs that shuffled around. Its torso had all kinds of weird appendages sticking out of it. The skin was most unnerving. Probably because it did not seem to have any skin at all. The bare muscles and blood vessels could be seen moving around on his body. And then there was its head. The creature had no eyes that could be seen where the eyes would usually be placed there was nothing but the darkest black any of them had ever seen before. Its mouth was opened wide in 6 different directions with row upon row of razor-sharp teeth lining its body.
Why it even had a mouth Grey wasn't sure. It clearly didn't need one. It was absorbing his former friends and rivals. They could see the screaming faces of their friends trying to get out from under the bloody red muscles on its body. The form of their faces could be seen pushing against the veins running through this monsters body. The most gruesome of all was that they still seemed alive despite everything that had happened. Their faces pressed against the fleshy walls of the prison they were in screamed to Grey and the others for salvation. The torment could be heard in the voices that reached out to them.
A symphony of terror and agony reached their ears making them freeze for a second at the despair that raced through their minds. The trance of the moment was broken by a simple fucking rock.
The rock hit the creature in one of the black holes that were supposed to be its eyes and the creature shrieked. Looking around for the attacked in rage it found it. The small short-haired girl with the sling. She stood there shaking on her spot but staring defiantly at the creature in wat would probably be her last moment of bravery.
The creature raced towards the poor girl with the obvious intentions to tear her apart limb by limb. The girls bravery urged the others into action. Oak sprinted to intercept the creature and crashed full against the side of its body with his shield. Knocking the creature unnerving close to the girl who managed to barely dodge a swipe by one of its weird limbs. The others didn't let the chance they had gotten leave their grasp. Mist quickly knocked an arrow and shot it at the head of the vile creature. Loosing arrow after arrow the others closed in on the monster. Oak smashed where he supposed the creatures ribcage would be with a mighty swing of his mace. A Crunch could be heard causing the creature roared in anger.
Tatt's swung his axes in a parallel swing at one of the creatures leg's only barely managing to lodge them a few centimeters in. Snowflake flew past with the violet light in his veins pulsing with fierce emotions. One of his knives could be heard whistling through the air at high-speed entering the head of the despicable creature. using the chain he swung around the tree snapping its head backward exposing its neck. Luniera and Grey did not waste the opening and swung their blades with all the strength they could muster and sliced into the thick crimson neck of the monster.
After slicing into 3 quarters of the monsters neck they jumped back down and backed off. The creature however just roared in outrage at the group and snapped its own head back onto the nearly severed neck. Screams could be heard from within the creature as they watched one of them be torn apart inside it while it used the parts of her body to reattach the head onto its neck. The other wounds simply regenerated itself aswell. The group just stood there in horror watching the creature patch itself up in no time. All the wounds they had inflicted where now non existent.
