It has been three hours since the team took off, they were running through the wastelands at intense speeds. They could have easily gotten to their destination at full speed, but because moving at intense hypersonic speeds would have taken alot of energy and tired them out, they instinctively thought that it was a bad idea. As the team were approaching the huge forest in front of them, Gwen pointed "That must be the forest the first base is located in.", Kazuma replied "Yeah, I see it. So does everyone remember the plan?". Yuji then recalled "Just incase. The first group would head into the forest, the second group are to head 30 kilometres east. The east is on the right. And as for the other base located in another forest for the third group, its west. Does everyone understand now?", everyone then exclaimed "Yes we do.". Kito then says "In a matter of seconds, we would separate. Good luck.", Kazuma smirked "Yeah buddy. Good luck!". Kito then exclaimed "The mission officially starts....NOW!", group two and group three separated from each other at a swift speed. As Kazuma's group where heading straight forward for the forest, Kazuma's arms started to spark with purple energy, his grin still on his face "I'm going to enjoy this.". Meanwhile deep in the base, a man who was sitting on his chair had just opened his eyes from his nap "We have intruders.". A few moments later, Kazuma, Regina, Yuji and Volt had entered the forest, they were jumping from tree to tree at speeds faster than sound. As they were moving and jumping at blinding speeds all over the place, Regina asked "Has anyone seen anything?", Kazuma replied "Not yet.", Yuji also replied "Nah, I haven't sensed anything yet at all. What of you Volt?". Volt was quiet for a moment while looking down at the deep dark depths from the forest "Hey guys, i know this is obvious, but the tree stumps are like over a thousand feet below from where we are flying from, its obvious there are giant beasts like attribute snakes down there. I know this is common sense but.... the moment you fall into the dark abyss, its game over. Straight death!". Volts eyes and face spoke seriousness, Yuji thought to himself "He's right. There are alot of eerie things down there. Huge snakes, hundred feet tall scorpions, giant lion beats, even ceraberus are no exception. We have to be careful.". As they kept darting all over the place, Regina couldn't help but to be looking at Yuji, she thought to herself "I know the mission is the first thing right now. But if I atleast had the opportunity to hold his hand before we left, my mind would be calm right now.". For a few moments, everything was quiet, until a sharp danger spark crossed Volts and Regina's mind. Kazuma and Yuji felt this sharp sting as well, Volt yelled "EVERYONE, GET BACK!". A huge snake blasted itself out of the abyss as it let out a huge screech, the kids were stunned the moment they saw this. Yuji's eyes became serious, his killer instincts started to kick in. Volt's arm started sparking with electricity, Kazuma had an excited smile on his face and Regina's eyes became dark and was ready to kill. The snake instantly shot out a huge blast of fire at the team. Immediately they intercepted this, the kids dodged by jumping out of the way as fast as they could. As soon as they landed to the ground, they realised that the powerful burst of flames had incinerated a large portion of trees and ground to ashes. "What the hell?", Kazuma thought to himself, he looked up at the snake "Looks like we're dealing with this thing now.". Kazuma asked "Yuji, are you ready?", Yuji already held his daggers and was ready to kill anything in his path "Yeah.". Regina stopped them "Wait, there is someone untop of the snake.", Kazuma and Yuji were abit stunned "Huh?, Volt added "Yeah, I can sense some electrons standing above the snake. Its definitely a person.". Suddenly, they all heard a women's voice "Hello, kids. You must be from the city. Its so nice to see you.". Regina looked closely and saw a woman with a revealing brown assassins clothing, the woman jumped down to the ground and caused a huge smoke screen just by landing on her feet. This lady was holding a chain with a sharp hook at the top, she was rolling her weapon "My name is Vanhell. I'm one of the *Hornets Web cult* members.", an evil smirk curled up on her face as she hurled her weapon infused with lightning "NICE TO MEET YOU!", she exclaimed with a psychotic tone in her voice. The team immediately saw the attack coming and jumped out of the way. The chain that Vanhell had launched at the team was able to cut through a large part of the forest with a single strike of lightning. Kazuma, Regina, Volt and Yuji were absolutely stunned, their eyes were wide open "THAT WAS CLOSE!", they exclaimed with wild look of shock in their eyes. They immediately rushed forward towards Vanhell. Vanhell smirked deviously as she swung her chain imbueded with lightning, the kids immediately dodged this power strike that would have killed them. The strike of lightning from Vanhell's chains had wiped and sliced a part of the forest into ashes. As the kids blitzed past her and were darting through trees, Kazuma asked "So? Who's taking her on?", Regina instantly replied "I'll be the one to kill her.", Volt objected "No, I'll be the one. You guys should go-". He hadn't fully finished his sentence before everyone felt a strange vibe and saw the huge hundred feet tall snake looking at them with death In its eyes. Vanhell appeared behind Volt with an excited smile and was about to slice him open with her weapon "Oh? So you want to fight me? GOOD!". As she went In for the slash, Volt turned around with a powerful burst of lightning on his palms and exclaimed wity aggression "GET BACK!", and blasted a powerful amount of electricity at Vanhell. Regina immediately blasted purple beams of energy at the eyes of the snake that was in the way. The snake screeched in pain as it started to go berserk and destroy everything. As it was raging and destroying trees, the kids were darting forward, Volt ended up getting smacked by the snake and crashed through a couple of trees. As he was about to fall into the abyss, he quickly grabbed a tree branch to cling on. Yuji yelled Volts name "VOLT!", Volt replied "Don't worry about me, I'll take care of this thing!". The snake immediately blitzed towards Volt and slammed him towards the ground with its head. Yuji was about to go help him, but Regina grabbed him by the collar "No, let's go!", she exclaimed as herself, Kazuma and Yuji flew along. Kazuma clicked his tounge as he looked back "Fuck, I wish we didn't just leave him behind like this.". Meanwhile from the abyss, a huge burst of electricity blasted up from it and wiped out a large number of trees into ashes. Volt was standing with his head and left arm bleeding, he had an excited look on his face while trying to catch his breath "Looks like I survived that. Good for me.". Vanhell was swinging her chain cloaked in lightning "So, you're tougher than you look.....", a deranged smirk of excitement curled up on her face with lightning sparking on her hands and face "To bad i'll have to cut you up and gauge your heart out!". Volts smirk slowly started to grow unhinged as blue electricity was sparking all over his hands and face, his hands had turned into pure electricity and were almost taking the shape of spears "Ha, you wish! Electrical Discharge: 10 percent: 12,000,000 volts!"
