D aimed for the killer blow to Liam's head. As he was bringing the vine down, Aoi lept in his path and took the blow instead. D smirked as she was thrown back. She stood at once. She cut through the vines with her knife, leaving Liam to lie on the floor. She stood in front of him protctively.
"Leave Liam alone." she threatened.
"Or you'll do what?" taunted D. He sent a vine towards her and it pierced right through her, but she stood firm.
"Take my life and leave Liam. If you do, we'll leave. One of your members and most of your scientists are dead anyway. Our mission will not have been in vain."
D smirked. "Whatever you say, little girl."
There was a shriek from Aoi as he sliced her with his Sword. She dropped to the floor, seemingly dead. There was a flash and D had gone, carrying Rose.
There was the sound of barking. Sygnal rushed into the lab moments later, followed by Rai and Bubbles. She noticed Aoi and Liam lying on the floor, both seemingly dead.
"What happened here?" she murmered. The dogs went to the two and got them onto their backs.
"We're going back to the cabin, immeadietly." Sygnal ordered. "We can help them there." Sygnal ran out with the two dogs carrying Liam and Aoi.
All that was left was a ruined lab filled with the corpses of scientists.
