Despite the chaos, the sound of Seraza's neck breaking seemed to cut through everything.
It reached the ears of Beatrix, and to her, it was as though her life shattered. For a moment, she just hovered, her eyes fixed on the swaying neck of her only child.
How had everything gone wrong?
She had made plans upon plans for everything. How did they discover her underground base? How did they get past Seraza's guard? How did her baby end up lifeless, in the hands of a boy everyone had called thrash?
Her baby was dead.
The thought seemed to snap Beatrix back to reality. She felt something within her break as Malakai flung Seraza's lifeless body away like she was nothing.
Beatrix felt her blood boil. Her temperature grew to the extent that steam rolled off her body in waves. The blood encasing her began to sizzle, and she leaned forward.
At that moment, she saw nothing but Malakai.
"I will kill you."
She blurred forward, leaving sonic booms like explosions in her wake.
