Chapter 18 

Atticus 

Once again, Atticus was locked in combat with a god.

Athena had been to tough for him. In his defence, Athena was a goddess of war while he was only a mortal created with limited combat knowledge.

The same can't be said for Alfear was more than holding his own against Ares. Ares was hot-headed and at times reckless. His physical prowess was exceptionally, Atticus could say that. However, his swings were wild.

Alfear however was different, he moved grace and ferocity. Where Ares's strikes were more forced, Alfear's were natural. It was as if the swords he held were merely extentions of his own body. Extra reach to his already deadly tactics.

Atticus wished he had paid for attention to his opponent rather then Alfear as The Other delivered a crippling blow to him. Atticus crumpled to the floor.

"Atticus!" Theresa screamed. She started to move towards him.

"No!" He shouted back.
