The Crystals

Zohaifa attempted to finish this dual. His eyes showed determination and savagery. The absorpian got up quickly and picked up her stance, ready to face Zohaifa.

But all on a sudden, the pulsating glow from her pulsated faster and brighter. She held her stomach tight and produced a slight moan. Zohaifa stopped his procession, slightly confused.

She struggled to gather strength for standing up but suddely another series of pulsation occured. The vibration of her body showed her pain. Her legs could not support her anymore. She started moaning. But she still tried to crawl up.

Another series of pulsation yet again. She began to screaming now. The way she scratched the dirts and twist her feet showed the unbearable pain she must be in. Tears continued to flow through her eyeballs. She pounded the ground while crying and shouting. Even the man with the toughest heart would feel pity for her. And Zohaifa was certainly not the toughest.

"What should I do?" Zohaifa lost in thinking, "I came here to defeat her but now I feel sympathy. I even wish I could do something to stop this. What's causing all these pains?"

Zohaifa thought, he can leave her for now and think about his actions later. That is when she stood erect unnaturally with her mouth wide and faced towards the sky.

Bwah!

She made a sound as if she wants to vomit. The contraction of her gut was visible. Her eyes were half open with no pupil showing semi-consciousness. Yet another sign of pain. The mouth opened abnormally wide. A figure appeared from it. Its parts weren't distinct as it was covered by light.

"Dammit. She was giving birth!"

When the figure finally crawled out, the angelic radiance disappeared. She observed the environemnt, quite annoyed, trying to read the situation. Zohaifa stared at her in awe of this delivering process. She looked exactly like a duplicate of her parent. It seems more like cloning than a reproduction. Every part of the child looks the same as the parent, inch by inch. The only difference was in their eyes.

However, fortunately and unfortunately, she even has all the injuries that her mother had, in the same places too. "What happened to me?" she demanded to know.

"That boy, over there, tortured your mother. That caused you to be born with damage," her mom answered as she stood up.

She shifted her gaze towards Zohaifa, which brought him back to senses. He noticed the frightening presence the baby absorpian exerted.

"Go! Take vengeance on behalf of your mom," the mother absorpian commanded proudly.

"Why?" She asked "Why do I care what happens to you? I will take revenge because of my injury."

"Oh, dear!" her mom spoke while sweating, "You just took birth so it's hard for you to understand how the world works. Don't you love me?" Saying that, she sought to extend her hands to caress her cheek.

But the child slapped her hands and threw an unbelievably powerful uppercut, throwing her mother far off from the battlefield. "You can't tell me what to do."

She again turned her gaze towards Zohaifa with hostility.
