The Godslingers Next Gen: Chapter 16

Finn POV

I tried to sense Josh with Divination. I saw him, in the werehouse in front of me. Everyone began to pound on the steel doors. Then Sabre walked up. He rammed into it. It dented. He did it again. A small hole was visible now. Then he grabbed the little hole and ripped it open. We climbed through. 2 10-foot tall Cyclopes had Josh chained over a pit of boiling water. "Can we eat him yet, Madam Boss lady?" one asked.

Then I noticed a woman sitting on a throne in front of the pit. She had long straight blonde hair and emotionless violet eyes. She waved her hand and orange dust came out. The chains loosened and Josh lowered. He was dangling only 2 feet above the water now.

Then she noticed us. "Well, well, well. 4 demigods and a sorcerer." She spoke in a Russian accent and walked around us, examining. "I am Natalia Robinshky. My mother Hecate forwarned me that you were coming. I got these two, Bash and Smash out of Tartarus. They love Demititan meat. But they will settle for demigod." she said. Then they pushed my friends against the wall.

"Give them back!" I shouted.

"Make me." She said.

I put my hand out. Green energy blasted. She made a wall of orange and the blasts canceled each other out.

A double-bladed scythe appeared in her hand. I swung my pendant and expanded into a mace. She spun her scythe like a baton twirler. Wind came out as if her scythe was a fan with Gale force power. I summoned a wall of rock and pushed it forward. She cleaved it in half. Then a giant orange combat Avatar in the shape of her appeared around her. One in the shape of an Owl warrior appeared around me. Our combat Avatars fought until I got her up against the wall. Her avatar faded. "Now release my friends. Or else."

"Bash! Smash! Attack!"

They charged me. My avatar's feathery tail flicked and two feathers shot off, impaling the cyclopes in the chest. They disintigrated.

"Fine." Natalia said. The chains around Josh and the others vanished. The pit sealed up. We left the warehouse.

"See ya." Josh said.
