Skulduggery came out of no where and landed on top of her, sending her flat on her face. He muttered a 'sorry' before flying into Chione and taking her off her feet. Star threw fireballs after them but Skulduggery turned round and they hit Chione instead, her skin sizzled but fixed itself again a couple of seconds later. Mithria sent a sphere of water towards her and Valkyrie cartwheeled to the side so the sphere shot into the doors instead. The door splintered further and she had an idea. September shot daggers that looked like...leaves? and Mithria turned into a puddle. Valkyrie shot fireballs at the leaves burning some but they still came at her, she only had time to cover her head. The leaves cut her hands, sliced her hair, tore at her jacket but didn't do any real damage. She felt hands round her legs and water seeped through her jeans and up her leg, over her stomach. She tired to stop it but it travelled up her neck, on her face and into her mouth, She chocked as Mithria began punching the back of her throat. She fell to her knees and clutched her neck. September watched with a smile. Chione shot into September, the two entangled on the floor. Skulduggery ran over and picked Chione up by her hair.
"Freeze your sister." Skulduggery shouted.
"N-no" Chione struggled. Skulduggery pulled her hair tighter and punched Chione in the jaw. Valkyrie was turning red as she fought for breath. Chione shot ice at the water on her face and it froze, aswell as the water in her mouth. She clicked her fingers.
"Don't," Skulduggery said quickly, "you'll unfreeze her and she'll turn into water again."
Skulduggery came over and knelt in front of her. "This may hurt"
He broke the ice on her face and reached inside her mouth to break the ice in her throat. She gagged and coughed, Skulduggery patted her back. The water on her leg turned back into a puddle on the floor and travelled to a hunched - over Chione, a bewildered September and a - she heard a click and her hair set on fire. Star tackled Skulduggery and Valkyrie rolled over screaming trying to put her hair out. Skulduggery was swarmed by the 3 sisters and Chione stood up. Mithria and September held his arms and Star held his shoulders, keeping him on his knees.
"Well well" she sneered s she wiped blood from her mouth, "seems the tables have turned" she said loudly as to be heard over Valkyrie's screaming. Chione punched him in his already broken ribs and he cried out. She kicked him in the face then took off his hat and put it on.
"It suits me don't you think? after this, you won't be needing it." she chuckled. She nodded to Star and she set his suit on fire. They all let him go and watched him squirm and burn on the floor. Valkyrie finally put the fire in her hair out and she ran over to Skulduggery. She used the water technique he showed her to bring water down on him, dousing the flames. Chione didn't take her eyes off him, the other 3 sisters came towards Valkyrie as Chione stood on Skulduggery's back, not letting him up. She turned round and gave her a grin.
Oh my god... looks like these sisters are really good at fighting ;)
ReplyDeleteChi, you're a genius!
Generally I don't like fight scenes a lot but I loved reading this one!
I have read a lot of fight scene books, watched a lot of fight scenes in movies, I should be good, I would be a bad writer if I didn't get the good fight scenes in there! I will try and keep making them better.
ReplyDeleteYou're really good at fight scenes Chi! Poor Valkyrie, poor her hair.
