A massive tornado forms from nowhere, engulfing the town. However, the centre of it, which fell onto the docks and sea, was unnaturally calm, pebbles, debris and crates floating it the air. From the vortex raging around them, the laughing of two people, one male, one female.

He looked up, sensing the power of the incoming figures.
A smile spread over his face...

The ring seemed to tremble on her chest, almost as if it was afraid...

You really are a little... what the?
Oh dear... their powers are immense... we... we should back away...

Two figures walked through the vortex. They were almost identical in every single way. They wore the same flowing robes, their hair, their eyes, their face. The only evidence that they were different was the swell of the girl's breasts.

'Look what we've caught brother. Are they the ones that Mal was messing with?' the woman asked.
'I don't know, should we ask them?' Her brother replied.
'They wouldn't tell us, silly! We want to kill them.'
'You're right, sis. I can be so dense sometimes.'
They both started giggling like schoolchildren.

Very... far...away...

He smiled warmly at the giggling figures, and Trinity couldn't see him. He moved closer to her, ready to kill the moment he received his orders... which would be any minute now...

He smiled.
"Finally."

The next thing Trinity knew, the ring was gone from her hand, tossed across the ground. Then he was in front of her, grinning evilly, black flames roaring out of him.
"Time to die, you little traitor... your husband never truly forgave you for Darmaku'ul, you know. And now he never will. I want you to die knowing that he thought you were a traitor..."
He struck at her, black flames roaring...

Change of plan, get the ring, get the ring, GET THE RING! Martyris screamed inside her head...

The ring tumbled along the grass, the flame starting to bun feebly...

He laughed, watching her cower.
"I don't believe I managed to get so close to you without you noticing I wasn't your beloved husband... what a pathetic excuse for a wife to fail him so utterly..."

He advanced on her, chuckling.
"He'll thank me for killing you..."

she backing away from him
"you dont know nothing, i knew you weren't ty, i just pretended that you were cause i didnt know what you planned to do"

They stared at Sean, then burst out laughing.
'Look brother. That human is trying to intimidate us.'
'I know, sister. It's so funny!'
'Should we see what he can do?'
'I think that's a wonderful idea.'
They both waved an arm, mirroring each other perfectly. With that, dozens of demons burst through the vortex, charging towards the group.

'He thinks he's scaring us brother.'
'He also thinks he's killed our little servants.'

The demons that had been stuck down broke down, half becoming water and slipping towards the sea, while half seemed to disappear. Moments later, those same demons rose up from the sea, or reappeared from the vortex, and returned to the battle.

She smiled at the man, and applauded him. 'Do it again. Do it again!'

He raised an eyebrow.
Then he laughed again.

"Well then. Guess I'll have to murder you two quickly then."
Then he sent bolts of dark flames to swirl around Zerron, then sprang at her, knocking her onto her back, and leering at her right in her face, daring her to fight back...

The ring glowed faintly, showing Ayase where it lay in the grass...

There! Get it, quick!

A pillar of flames burst from the ground behind Ty, and Ignis stepped out. He grabbed Ty by the neck, and tossed him towards a nearby building. He looked over at the other two demons.
'Aquae! Aeris! What is the meaning of this!'

They both smirked at him, as if amused.
'Oh, ligthen up Iggy! We're just having a bit of fun.'
'Yeah. We saw Mal messing with these people, so we decided to play too.'

A look of realisation appeared on Ignis' face, 'Malum...' Hoards of fire demons appeared from the same flame as Ignis. 'This foolishness ends now!' The Flame army charged.

Alright, now hold on a second...

The ring glowed with a red haze adding to the red flames as Martyris communicated with Tyrcestus.

Ok, so... wait... no, I'm not risking... alright then, well... no, no, that won't... if you're sure...

The ring stopped glowing for a second, and flames seemed to gather in Ayase's hands.

Now, Ayase, you need to hit Ty as hard as you can. Don't hold back. It's the only way this will work...

He sat up, stunned by the unexpected assault...
