[HAWI]
"You're going to meet your sister, Atticus. It should be a perfect reunion, huh?" Hawi said, letting her team hear her voice for the first time in two weeks. She had been watching, and studying them, and eventually, she figured it was time to come here.
Atticus didn't even know what he was supposed to say to the woman. His voice was sore, and every word that came out of his mouth couldn't be heard. His body hurt, he was missing an arm and an ankle.
His entire body looked like someone had been throwing darts at it, and his magic had been absorbed by Hawi in the process. He was helpless and couldn't do shit, even though he could sense his sister's magic in Hawi.
He hadn't expected that, but the fact that Hawi was subconsciously absorbing the magic of the shadow warlocks was scary enough for the warlock. He didn't know how to live a life without magic, and at the same time, he wasn't sure he would be alive anyway.
"Wait... we sprint two weeks going in circles... because you wanted us to mourn the fallen, right?" Mbali asked as she looked at Hawi and then at Atticus who had so many wishes but wouldn't ever get any of them granted.
"That makes a lot of sense. She was always watching over us in silence, making us feel safe," Elodie added and Malika just chuckled, making them look at her. They had all been in the same position but she was happy?
"Took you long enough to realize that. The mourning period in Greyson is two weeks. Mistress knew we couldn't go and mourn with Greyson, so she made us mourn in our ways," Malika explained and they facepalmed.
Then again with Hawi everything she did always had a meaning to it. It didn't matter that she was psycho, because no matter what happened, nothing she did was just for the sake of it. She was, after all, a great strategist.
"I think I'm falling in love again," Rukiya said heartily, and they all let out laughs, while Hawi just turned to her and hugged her softly, kissing her hair as they waited for the Sicario gates to open for them.
It wasn't going to be easy, but then they were way past the technicalities and safety measures. They had come here to make sure that they got what they wanted regardless of the consequences.
"I guess you have a thing for the impossible huh? Your mate was a weakling who couldn't even try to survive. She died alone in a stuffed room with weapons? What a waste of life. I bet it's even good that she's gone.
"Besides, you had a mate, an actual one and you fucked it over. I'm starting to think your name should be changed to Jeremiah fucking Warner, man," Malika said and Jer glared at her, this time, he grabbed his blade and threw it at Malika who caught the blade.
It was so easy for her and Jer stared in shock. He wasn't certain what he was doing, but even he knew he was outnumbered. So, he made the only choice he could at the moment, if it would ever count for anything.
Jer ran. Literally.
Jhe ran towards his people and asked for swords to join the fight.
Expectedly, the fight was supposed to be ways, given it was just five women against the entire Sicario army. They were outnumbered, but would the huge army be able to win this kind of battle?
These warriors were immortal, had nothing left to lose, and had gone to the pits of hell and come back. They were worse than the devil himself and at the same time, they were being led by the devil herself, who was seated on Atticus's body.
Hawi was watching the warriors get their asses kicked by the women and she loved it.
It was always fun watching them in action and it was truly fulfilling. The best part of this all was that even though they were fighting everyone, none of them was even paying attention to Jeremiah; not even Malika who had been with him earlier.
She was focused on making sure whatever remained of Sicario was what they wanted and needed. It didn't matter how long the war would take or even what they would do, because today, they would fight to the death.
It didn't matter how long it took.
"You guys are really pathetic, is that all you got from my years of training you?"
