Sunset looked up from her book, “Astronomia Nova" to glance at the voice speaking to her. She took notice of the former siren circling her, and she rolled her, sighing to herself and flipping the page.
“Aria, was it?” She said dully. “What do you want?”
Sunset let out a groan as spell hit her, finally dropping to her knees. She fingertips seemed to sharpen into claws as she gripped her head, groaning in agony. She felt… pain. It took over her, swimming through her core. She wanted to hurt herself.
As she reached out with a claw, aiming to slit her own wrist, a voice in her head, stopped her. ‘Let. Me. Out.’ It said. But Sunset couldn’t verbally respond. She couldn’t tell her yes. But it didn’t seem like the voice cared.
With a scream of rage, Sunset’s eyes blacked, and her skin took on a blood red hue. Suddenly, a large column of fire erupted from where she stood, shattered every window around the two girls. The smoke hadn’t even cleared hardly when a new, red skinned woman rushed at the siren with an intense speed, snarling, her teeth baring in a rage as a fist cloaked in black fire aimed directly at Aria.
The hologram of the siren had finished her song. But remained to see her handiwork. And when she beheld that instead of killing Sunset she had drawn out what looked like a demon, her massive jaw dropped. The demonic fist collided with the socket where Aria’s gem used to be embedded in her flesh and the siren flew backwards.
But possessing flight helped the creature massively. She became more substantial while the human form on the ground became more opaque, frozen in shock. The two forms had one goal now: survival.
Aria’s siren form twisted around in the air and let out a defensive blast of energy from her voice at the demon.
Meanwhile, news of the fight had spread through the town and police officers and fire trucks had barred off the scene. Among the crowd a blue-haired woman was pushing past people. Sonata struggled to get to the scene.
“You have to let me through,” she explained to the officers, “I can stop it!”
The new begin gave a grin as it saw the blast coming at her.
Taking off in a red blur, she lunged, not at the siren form, but at the siren herself, fist clenched and aimed straight at her throat. “Hey Aria!” She said, speaking for the first time. Her voice sounded lower then Sunset’s more feminine but still slightly gravily. “Choke on THIS!”
She never once took notice of her surroundings. All this new being cared about was beating Aria into the ground.
