"Nice, you say?" Vanessa raised her arm, and streaks of black lightning appeared on her palm. "Very well, then. I guess I can allow you to die feeling 'nice,' right?" Her face stiffened. The magical energy surged from her hand, forming a dense sphere.
"Haha, you? Kill me?" I finally sat upright. "Puh-lease."
"Alright, that's it." She said. The surge of energy in her hand increased manifold. Excruciating pain echoed on my back as the engravings informed me of her intentions. Vanessa's eyes narrowed down, and her smile withered away alongside her emotions.
Fuck.
She was really planning to kill me!!
"Va-Va-Vanessa!! Oi!" The gravity of my situation dawned on me. I scuttled backward with my feet and pushed one arm towards the woman. My hand swayed back and forth while the woman's magic continued to swell threateningly.
