What's next?
Battle at Castle Walker
Kat, Natsu and Jude reached the castle.
"Where are the Order?" Kat asked.
"They're being attacked by orcs as well" said Natsu, "you know that manor we passed. That's where they're based"
The trio did not have time to stop at the Order's manor.
"Thats what happens when you have a base of operations everyone knows about" said Natsu, "your enemies know where to attack. The Order will probably be able to fight them off but while they're doing that, they can't stop the orcs from attacking Walker castle"
Kat, Natsu and Jude reached the castle where orcs led by Abby were attacking it.
"Stop this crap, right now" said Natsu.
"You can't stop me, sister" said Abigail, "I'm going to bring the queen to justice"
Abby summoned a blade of light while Natsu summoned a blade of darkness. The two fought as Jude killed an orc. He grabbed the sword and threw it to Katrina.
"I've never used one of these before" said Kat.
"Still, a sword will be more useful than claws" Jude said.
Jude and Kat fought against the orcs while Natsu faced Abby. Due to Kat's inexperience, Jude dealt with most of the orcs. Of course, they were helped by paladins at the castle. Abby fired a light blast at Natsu but she dodged it.
Natsu hit Abby with a darkness blast. Kat managed to kill an orc with her sword.
"I got one!"
"Congrats, now get the other orcs trying to kill you" said Jude.
Abby summoned illusionary clones of herself. However as Natsu knew these illusions were made of light, she summoned darkness to cloud the area, making them disappear.
"Dammit" said Abby.
"Yeah, I also knew which of you was the real one on account of you being the only one of you to not spontaneously appear in front of me just now"
Abby fired light daggers at Natsu who blocked them with a darkness shield. Natsu then summoned a ball of solid darkness round Abby.
"Dammit!" said Abby.
Natsu ran inside and sliced Abby with her dark sword. Abby stumbled out of the darkness and fell to the floor.
"Help me" she asked the orcs.
One of the orcs shot Abby with a crossbow.
"Why?" she asked.
"You were just a useful idiot" said the orc, "there was no place for you in our world"
Jude came behind the orc who shot Abby and ran his sword through him.
"She might have betrayed me but she's still my daughter"
Natsu ran to her sister.
"What did you expect?" asked Natsu, "the kind of orcs who want this revolution are only in it for things like power or orc supremacy. They don't care about justice or fixing anything"
Abby cried.
"I just wanted to be a hero" she said, "I thought that was who I was meant to be. I was born with the powers of light, I should've been the hero of this story. Was I the villain this whole time?"
"I'm afraid you were" said Natsu.
"I'm still fighting orcs over here" said Kat.
Abby stopped moving.
"Dammit" said Jude, "someone get treatment for her"
Eventually the orcs were overwhelmed and captured. Abby was taken into the medical room.
"Is she gonna be okay?" asked Kat.
"She should be" said Natsu, "unfortunately, there's still the question of what happens to Abby afterwards. She literally tried to take over the kingdom"
"Given that we were the ones who put a stop to her, we can negotiate this with the queen" said Jude.
