The whole stadium was now been filled with rumours...scary ones. Marina's declaration had spread like mice reaching the ears of everyone in the stadium. Everyone had heard a slightly different variation but all got the same message. If the match continues...they will all be great danger. At the centre was Saku in agonizing pain. A severe burning pain was spreading out his whole pain consuming him, almost completely.
Sophie felt helpless as Saku was reduced to his hand and knees clinging to his chest. Kieran was at one hallway, his body was trembling "My body...won't stop shaking. What is this...fear? No it's a warning. Something's coming. Something big" Marina had an angry look as she spoke to Aries
"didn't you hear me!? If you let this match keeping, your brother's life is at stake" Aries looked a mixture of scared and dumbfounded
"What are you talking about?"
"I know the truth. I know the truth of the incident that happened at the Stritos estate ten years ago. I know why it occurred...and the shameful secret you have kept hidden for all these years. And if you don't do something...look forward to round 2" Aries looked shocked "I'm going to go gather his friends" with that Marina set off again.
Akihiko was stirring "What...was that? I was caught completely by surprise...that little git" Akihiko then looked at Saku "What's the deal with him...a heart problem?" Akihiko then felt a tingling feeling "Oh...such pain, his whole body is almost screaming...yes...yes" Sophie heard his voice and turned to him
"Akihiko...I forgot about him" Sophie then stood in-front of Saku "I've got to protect him. I won't let you near him!"
"So you won't let me little lady" as Akihiko stepped forward moderate-sized balls of fire formed in-front of him "then you'd better start trying" Sophie began making gusts of winds to either guide the flames away or peter them out "interesting...you'll make for an amusing opponent" Sophie looked back on Saku
"don't worry I'll protect you Saku"
Marina had made it to Saku's friends who all looked worried "Marina" said Anastasia "What's going on?"
"there's not much time to explain but...we need to stop the match now" said Marina "Everyone in this stadium is in potential danger"
"Why...is Akihiko that bad?" said Jessamine looking at the match "I mean Sophie is handling herself just fine" Sophie was still deflecting and blowing away fireballs
"It's not Akihiko that's worrying me...it's her" said Marina gravely looking at Sophie "listen we have to stop this"
"We can't" said Mia "a match can only end if one team loses and no-one can interfere a barrier is shielding the whole stands" in her gut Marina knew this
"then...we'd better hope it doesn't get worse"
Akihiko was beginning to get frustrated "This fire...is the result of intense pain and yet...it's meagre. Why is it so small?" Sophie looked determined
"Saku...Saku talk to me" Saku appeared to be slightly calming down "are you alright?" he looked at her with painful squinted eyes "there you go...just look at me" as Saku felt the pain start to subside...he felt a fierce throbbing in his chest. The result made him almost scream out in pain falling to the floor.
Saku's cry seemed to create a strong wing which could be felt at the back of the stands, and was so strong people were nearly getting blown over. Murmurs were now escalating
