After Alice stuck a knife in Leah's stomach, I¹ ran up first and started giving her first aid. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed Marie turning to angora and abruptly soaring into the air. The entire mansion trembled at the volume of her voice:
- NOBODY. CAN. TOUCH. MY. SISTER!!!A strong wind rose at the last words, and a powerful energy sphere of slightly bluish color appeared around Marie. Everything happened instantly:
The sphere began to narrow, and, for a while becoming a kind of "shell" of Marie, it expanded dramatically without affecting us. There was a big explosion, everything got stuck and began to collapse. Alice flew to the far wall of the corridor, tightly pressed against it. In the next second, the wall collapsed, burying the girl under the rubble. I, having come to my senses from what I saw, quickly began to direct everyone to the exit, realizing that the mansion was about to fall apart. I gave Leah to Caroline, and she   gave Vlad, who came running to the noise. At the last moment I turned my attention to Marie and was horrified:
All her hair was disheveled and flying around her in random directions, her skin turned bright scarlet, and only glowing whites are visible in her eyes. Teeth and nails have grown twice and become sharper than a razor.
Then the ceiling began to collapse, and a huge piece suddenly fell on Marie. Whoever she is, she is still my friend, so I immediately ran to save her. But she didn't need help: the piece, split into millions of small stones, opened Marie.
- Marie, stop! I command you! Turning to the voice, I saw the Lord making his way to us. - Calm down, otherwise we will all die here!
- Diana, you killed my parents, tortured my friends and many others! - Marie's loud growl rang out. – Now you're going to pay for it!
Millions of shards of glass and stained glass flew at the Lord, piercing him through.
- Marie, I've always loved you.... I'm sorry that it happ-... - the last fragment, without letting Diana finish, stuck her right in the heart¹.
