Infinity: Rising of the Soul Weavers

*Jax Jones - Breathe ( ft. Ina Wroldsen) *

Steeling her heart against her rampant emotions and adopting a serious expression, Maya narrowed her eyes into the far distance where the two Seraphim fought restlessly.

From the looks of it, Uriel didn't stand much of a chance against Michael. In a sense, that was rather obvious.

If Maya herself was not Michael's opponent, then Uriel who almost never fought a battle before was by no means his opponent.

However, Maya didn't mean to intervene in their fight at this moment. No, it wasn't the right time for her to act yet.

She herself needed to heal her wounds as soon as possible. Otherwise, with the strength she could muster in her current state, she could not even delay Michael, let alone fight against him on equal footing.

Additionally, she needed to heal Raven too. If not, those injuries of hers may leave some long lasting marks, especially the ones affecting her soul.

With that in mind, she closed her eyes in concentration and took in a deep breath as mana throughout the void started to move and gather around her. 

Although the amount was rather tiny and insufficient, it was her only option at the moment. And if she was lucky and Uriel managed to buy her enough time, she'd definitely be able to reap some significant results!

With that being said, she could not depend on such uncertainties. She needed to find a more plausible solution quickly!

And surprisingly… finding that plausible solution didn't take long; a familiar voice sounded at a spot in front of her face.

It was very similar to Raven's, yet Maya knew it wasn't hers. The only other option was most definitely Kayla's voice!

"Maya, nice to see you after so long…" Kayla said, obviously happy that she could finally see Maya again. 

It was rather unfortunate that they didn't have time to properly celebrate though.

Maya, who had her eyes closed in order to focus, opened them suddenly and found an extremely tiny version of Raven, with dark purple eyes and matching long hair, standing just right above her nose.

"Uhm, I'm sorry for the trouble…" Maya said, even though she sounded apologetic, her face showed a genuine smile the moment she saw Kayla's face.

Although the two of them were never really that close to each other, they both shared one person that they could die for without any questions asked. 

That's why the reunion wasn't awkward, but rather very heartwarming to the two of them. But even so, none muttered any nonsense.

"What do I need to do?" Maya asked, firmly believing that Kayla would not have expended her scarce energy just to greet her. 

Even though she had the background of a Seraph, Maya knew better than anyone that she could never underestimate Kayla. 

That's why she only had one thought in mind; it must be that she has found a way to help Raven and she needs her help!

"I need angels," the tiny Kayla grinned at Maya's response and replied promptly. She could tell that she had already seen through her, which made her rather satisfied. 

"How many?" Maya asked, rather decisively.

"As many as you can afford!" Kayla had a serious expression as she spoke those words.

Maya grinned. She was suddenly aware that Kayla had a plan, and it wasn't a simple one!

Without further ado, Maya focused on her angel forces and issued her command…

***

While Maya, Kayla, and Raven were each busy with their own task, the surface of planet Earth was rumbling as its mountings were razed to the ground, its oceans sent crashing against the wind, and its skies cracked open!

A magnificent battle was taking place on that small planet. Instead of its usual peaceful blue and green colours, Earth was covered in white as hundreds of millions of angels attacked all at the same time.

The ranks varied from rank Star One and all the way to Star Five, with the highest being extremely rare. Only one hundred such highest rank angels existed.

Fortunately, although there were more powerful angels waiting in line, such as one Star Twenty leader, two Star Fifteen, and twenty Star Ten angels, none of them attacked.

According to their instructions, they were not supposed to finish everything easily. Instead, they were asked to torture and kill the Humans slowly!

According to their calculations, the leader by himself was enough to destroy this planet. As such, he could not attack for now.

With that being said, the current number of angels was enough to trouble everyone that was fighting relentlessly.

Everyone has been fighting for a long time and even standing has slowly become extremely difficult. Fighting was a thousand times more so.

This applied to both Humans, Demons, and even the few aliens that chose to stay and fight alongside them.

Even Gaia herself looked slightly tired. After all, the battlefield was her own body! Those mountains, those oceans, those skies… everything that was affected by the attacks had inflicted sole serious pain to her.

But with that being said, her origin was hidden deep inside the planet so there was no real risk of serious injury.

"Those b*stards are planning to wait until we're unable to fight!" a Terran soldier shouted angrily while blasting an angel into pieces.

His attacks were decisive and vicious. Previously, such attacks would never harm a One Star ranked angel. But after Gaia's blessing was passed to everyone, such a thing became the norm.

"Take turns, don't let them overwhelm you!" A commander yelled loudly.

The enemy was taking advantage of their small numbers and launching continuous attacks to tire them out. Basically, they were planning a battle of attrition.

However, the Terran Army came up with a very simple and rather effective plan; simply take turns in engaging in battle!

On a small scale, this would be forming a team of two soldiers: one of them would attack and defend as the other rested.
