BXBX NOVEL Chapter 207 - Alongside
At that crutial point she could do two things, escape or she could work on her inner emotion and stop herself from being in fear so that whatever that creature was would stop feeding from her fear to grow more powerful.
She closed her eyes and worked on her rationality repeating to herself internally she didn\'t have to fear that huge snake in front of her, she was with John and she was just as strong as that creature if not even more.
Roselyn kept trying to lead in her mind those thoughts even tho it was very difficult to coinvice herself when usually she was the first person who doubted her own capabilities. But she had to be confident for once. They were in that drastical situation because of her and it was her duty to get them out of that trouble.
Roselyn narrowed her eyes and the fear and agony suddenly turned into anger and fury that she felt for herself for having acted immaturily and for having put in danger both herself and his husband. Anger now overfomed fear and Roselyn\'s cheeks heated up, blushing now of anger as her eyebrows knitted downz
She clenched her fists as she kept focusimg and earth began to quake and tremble under their feet until it creaked and opened so widely that the snake fell into it.
Roselyn took a breath of relief when she saw the snake plunging in the creaks and not emerginong even after few seconds.
\'It was easy after all\' she said to herself as she took a breath of relief until the snake jumped like if he fell on a jumpine mat and throw himself on John. His body gripped around John\'s neck who tried to take the snake over his neck by sinking his long claws inside his body but the snake\'s body was so long and thick that John\'s effort was just as in vain as desperate.
Roselyn tried not to panic and this time her hands lifted to point toward the sky. She needed to do something very powerful to beat that creature. She took a long breath trying to ignore the screams of pain coming from John not to get her conditioned or panick but instead try to use those as a motivation.
Thinking of John in danger drove her enraged even more, and anger was only intensigying her powers and her concertation. The sky turned of a blue intense and rain started to precipate so strong until it turned into hail. She kept curling her fingers as she kept her hand stretched up to the sky, the sky began to thunder until a lightining driven by Roselyn struck the snake throwing it on the ground and making it shake and whimper as it remained paralyzed.
John was free from the suffocating grip and his eyes flattened in anger as he growled, with his claws he ripped part of the snake\'s tail.
The snake\'s eyes extinguished for a second before shining of a red light, filled with revenge and fury
Roselyn saw the coming maw of the snake. There was no way her body could move. The only thing she could do was try to conjure the earth wall as fast as possible and hope it was enough to keep the bite from landing in her neck. Roselyn didn\'t lose time and in the the blink of an eye her hands were pointing on the earth\'s surface as she focused more it shifted and the snack\'s maw grew closer. Yet, when the fangs were about to chomp, Roselyn reacted quickly and the Earth spiked up and pushed back despite that the snake still managed to hit her calf sidesway.
Roselyn felt a burning sensation in her calf and she whimpered in pain having John growl and shiver in anger to see his wife being harmed.
"If I thought for a second to keep you alive after having tried to attack my wife your death was marked!" John dashed slamming his fist down with great power. The snack that had laches in to Roselyns\' calf was stunned and released the grip leaving Roselyn on her knees panting. John was torn. He rushed and attacked the serpent while it was weak. The snake whipped its\' wounded tail around and latched in to his chest. He could feel it grinding in to his bones. "John!" Roselyn became numb as the love of her life was writhing in pain trying to free himself but the snake grip was too intense even for such a strong vampire like John.
Roselyn had not meant to hold back so far. She was scared using fully her powers as she subconsciously feared hurting her love. Now…she had broken that seal. She remembered all his lessons how to create fire and she imagined the procedure, focusing onto the ground. She began to have headache for the efforts but she ignored the pain, she had more important things to think of. Flames erupted around her. And Roselyn drove those dancing flames toward the snake burning his squame. The snake didn\'t even have time to attempt to run as it\'s scales melted and charred.
But the snake wouldn\'t give up, he seemed irrepressible and he attempted another attack penetrating his poisoned tongue inside John\'s torso in the bleeding wound and then whipping so strong that John\'s body flew back of his meters and his torso inflamated having John scream in pain.
The snake dropped on the ground worn out of his attack, Roselyn yelled in anger and kept focusing feeding the flames that were eating up the snake\'s body until the snake\'s skin was completely burnt and he stopped to whine to die.
An smell of putrefaction filled th air and Roselyn took a breath of relief as she gazed at the creature to check whether it was dead or still alive, she took one step foreward, shaking fearing it would wake up all of a sudden but when she saw the snake\'s eyes lifeless and his skins so fully burnet that it was smoking Roselyn felt more relieved.
