The Earth After Rebirth

Kiro looked around and saw a creature that resembled the araknids of the Underworld. Only it was bigger and it felt a lot stronger, it was indiscriminately destroying the NPCs and buildings around.

"What's going on?" Isla asked, she was also in the middle of levelling up when they were transported here without much warning.

"Isaac and Ursa? This day just keeps getting better doesn't it. What the hell are they doing here!" Kiro was livid.

Isaac simply smirked. Ursa was standing far away from him, they were clearly not on speaking terms.

Ding!

[You are all guardians fighting amongst yourselves isn't going to achieve anything. As guardians you have one job, getting rid of harbingers around Asgard, whether you like each other is irrelevant.]

The system chimed in, Kiro wasn't having it. None of them were willing to cooperate with a weasel like Isaac. By the looks of it, he wasn't willing to fight with them either. He instead charged alone.

Kiro looked at him incredulously, hoping he'd receive a deathblow from the go. He'd clearly learned a few skills since last they fought, otherwise he wouldn't be so confident to think he'd take it alone.

He was however swatted to the side like the bug he was. That made Kiro happy a little, as he commanded his group to charge forward. They had no time to waste.

Isla was already shooting her arrows that were proving to be useless, Saanvi and Felix were ready to heal. It was too bad Ishaan wasn't here with his shield to protect their two healers.

She started with the mana arrows, they were much better. They dealt damage that they could actually notice.

Kiro arrived first, with Ryu in hand, he hit the thing on the chin. It flew upwards from the strike, he was already up there with bending kick, striking it down, sending it to his teammates.

Nikolai had his poison blades, he was ready he jumped. Not having the patience to wait for it to come to him, he sliced it's arms, not completely just enough for the poison to seep in.

On the ground it met with Hiro's shield. He pounded it like a pancake to the ground. It disappeared where it was and headed straight for their healers.

Felix was no pushover, he whipped his scepter turning it into the chains that wrapped around the araknid and slammed it down to the ground.

Kiro was already there with his fierce punch that threatened to put a hole on its chest but it managed to roll out of the way. It again disappeared from where it stood, aiming for the Isaac that it could land an attack on.

He surprised everyone when he produced aura they could see. It was on his fists, he managed to dodge the attack, punching the creature meters away from where he stood. It hit a nearby building, wrecking it completely.

Ursa was also an archer, she didn't let up. Her mana arrows zoomed with the wind, reaching the harbinger before it wrecked the building.

"Leader, should we heal them?"

"Don't."

Kiro was petty. He didn't understand the consequences should they fail to kill the harbinger yet. Above everything, he didn't feel like they needed the two of them, they seemed to be handling it seamlessly.

"Hiro, stay behind and protect our healers. Nikolai, let's go."

They didn't want to let it have a single breath of fresh air. It hadn't even gotten up and they were already there, having cornered it.

Kiro threw his wind blades using whirlwind, giving it multiple cuts on its body. It was too strong to turn it into mince.

"You lot are a strong bunch, I should've brought more of us. My arrogance will be my undoing. Curse you Qamata, you've prepared well." It said for the first time ever, the others hadn't expected the monster to speak, even though Kiro had told them they could.

Before they knew it, it was right in front of Nikolai. It punched hard in the gut, he flew a couple of steps back but landed on his feet. The rubble around created bits of shadows, he started using them to attack.

He appeared here and there, attacking the harbinger. All his attacks landed. It didn't matter where it ran to, he was there as the shadows around carried him.

Kiro didn't even bother using vibrations. He knew it wouldn't work. This one was far stronger than the queen, but so was he. And he had a whole team this time.

Isaac tried landing hits but they were all dodged, he was on the slower side. The first punch he landed must've been because it took him for granted, therefore surprised even it.

Isla was back there, ontop of a building. Waiting for the right time to attack. She kept feeding magic to the arrow, instead of it growing bigger, it was growing denser by the second, she however didn't shoot right away. She wanted to get just right.

This required a lot of patience and concentration from her. She noticed that her teammates had surrounded the harbinger and it was right in the middle.

She breathed, letting the arrow go. It was faster than anything she'd ever witnessed with her own eyes. It connected beautifully, hitting it straight in the head, causing a bigger explosion than before.

The araknid's head spaghettified, as if it had entered a black hole before exploding. Leaving it's brains raining on her teammates.

"Bullseye." She shouted excitedly.

"You did that on purpose didn't you?" Kiro shouted back, wiping his face that was smeared with araknid grey matter.

She didn't answer, she simply smiled at him with a naughty innocent smile.

Kiro took a few strides towards the body. He didn't trust that it was dead, with just his hand he was able to break through its chest, squeezed its heart, which exploded within seconds.

Ding!
