《Shining Duos》Red Hot
Advertisement
Pitch darkness was all Kazami, and the girls could see after getting sucked in the mysterious blue door. All of them in this space heard nothing, and yet they couldn't shake this growing dreading feeling as if someone were watching them.
Kazami attempted to move his body but soon realize it became massively tougher to work a single muscle. The girls were well were having the same difficulty, and becoming frustrated Kuzumi tried to gather up her Qi.
However, dismay soon appeared on her face as she couldn't gather up any Qi no matter how hard she tried. The others also tried to gather up Qi and were similarly shock by the results.
Throwing all caution into the wind now, the four of them then blasted out their divine bloodlines, causing a more intense feeling of being watched swell up inside them.
Any attempt to talk with each other was in vain as they could barely open their mouths, but in moments after unleashing their divine bloodlines, space started to tremble violently.
Worry and anxiety started to increase by the second until they witness something white slowly opening up to them.
The white increased in brightness until, in the middle, they saw a small black dot. 'An eyeball?' Kazami thought to himself, and suddenly the four of them heard a chilling voice in their heads.
"So this is what I managed to sense on the outside and in this space? Even for young youths, you four are a bit lacking now."
It was like the voice was everyone at once and still right next to them. Kazami was the first notice when whatever started to talk it became a bit easier to move and opened up with,
"Who are you? Or, more specifically, what are you?" His words has gotten the person to chuckle a bit before saying,

"At least you appear to have some courage, but still from what I'm sensing, it's not enough." Such a vague response only further puzzle the four and Lun You had to ask,
"Do you hail from God Realms?" Her suspicions lead to this after all the strange phenomena so far. To the divine feelings felt by Kazami, those attacking robust skeletons and a seemingly random door popping up all was very suspicious.
"My, my seems like we got someone with a little bit more knowledge, do we? You'll find out soon enough…if you survive." Such ominous words worried the four, but before they said a word, their bodies started to crash down.
It was sudden and abrupt that they didn't have any time to react towards it. And that's when while falling, the four saw a hint of red coming down below.
The temperature suddenly increased exponentially, and their eyes widen like a saucer. What they were falling to was red scorching hot magma that will surely burn them away.
"Shit!" Kuzumi screamed out and desperately struggled to break from their imminent descent.
All of them attempted to struggle like Kuzumi, but it was to no avail. With no other options, they started to wrack their brains for a solution.
And with each second passed, an overwhelming sense of dread started to well up inside them.
Even though they have enough freedom to speak, it was still nearly impossible to gather up any Qi.
However, Kazami got a quick idea and blurted out;
"Burn your divine bloodlines!"
When he shouted, instantly, he bit his tongue, burning out his purple blood and blasting out purple aura everywhere in the dark space.
Kuzumi wasn't behind as she similarly blasted purple aura, Brenda unleashed golden-white aura, and Lun You blazed out bright green aura.
All of them now we're going to the extreme to face off against the searing magma and possibly survive. The four did notice thanks to burning their blood, the temperature decreased somewhat, but it didn't alleviate their worries on surviving.

Like an executioner blade coming to claim their lives, they fell fast into the magma plunging deep within it.
The enormous floating eye at the time widen a little bit more as the voice thought out aloud,
"Hooh looks like I underestimated those kids a bit; maybe after all this time, someone can finally survive."
None of this was heard by the four as they barely resisted the fiery magma. Every fiber of their body was burning up now, causing excruciating pain never once felt before in their lives.
The only reason they didn't burn to ashes instantly was because of their divine bloodlines aura barely protecting them enough to keep them alive.
But the pain and heat they were experiencing had them feel death was a better option at this point.
Kazami had soon noticed once they were on the magma, they only stayed still in one spot, and if it were to keep up, then death will surely come.
Gritting his teeth, he twisted his head around, looking around in the magma since his aura shielded his eyes from burning.
He was glancing all around; he finally a small black hole deep at the bottom of the magma sea. There was nothing else in the magma besides this peculiar black hole, and quickly deciding on his action, he clapped his hand hard to gain the girls' attention.
Stuck inside the magma made it increasingly harder to speak. But Kazami clapping seemed to do the trick as the girls struggle to lift their heads to look at him. Kazami immediately pointed to the black hole, wordlessly telling them what they should do.
Wasting no time now, the four pushed their aura farther beyond their maximum straining their already pain fulled bodies. Blood flowed from their mouths, and the feeling of consciousness was slipping away by the second, and yet not a single one of them backed down.
Slowly but surely, they drag their bodies down to the black hole, and to their horror, the temperature gradually increased as well.
Midway through the magma, they all had to cease movement as now the pain was nearly impossible to bear, and the pressure on them increased. Struggling to keep their eyes was then they saw what felt like the grim reaper scythe.
A large red magma hand-formed in their faces towering over them. It was dreading disturbing sight as the hand was preparing to crush them to bits.
All sorts of questions rang out in their minds about this trial, they got forced into, but the biggest one of them all was, 'Is this death?'
When the thought of death played in their minds, Kazami and Kuzumi felt something dormant inside them roar out as it wanted to break free from their shackles.
But they both couldn't keep up anymore as this trial was too much for them.
And at this time Kazami and Kuzumi eyes close shut, an action that would soon be followed by Brenda and Lun Yuo until,
'BANG!'
A blast of silver ranged in Brenda and Lun Yuo eyes as the twins gleamed in a dazzling bright silver light.
No emotions appeared on their faces, and it seemed as the two weren't even conscious now, but their eyes had turned into piercing silver light that could cut through one soul.
Such a sudden and shocking turn of events stunned the other two girls and watched in awe as the twins turned back to stare right in their eyes.
