"!!!!" Iceik said. "Y-yes! I think that's the rumor monster!"

"Hahaha! I'm the Hot Spicy Demon! I ate so many hot peppers that I turned into this!" He laughed manically. "It's been years since people cross this way on foot! Now I'll get the chance to taste some meat!" He turns to the gate, with it's metal becoming heated due to Asuza. "And I'll break down that gate and slaughter every single one of them of those damn magicians and maybe even take a couple as my bride!!!" He turns to the duo. "Now, prepare to be mincemeat!!" He'd opened his jaws, gathered high intensity of beat. The temperature around the area began to rise.

Iceik was sweating like a storm, unable to move due to the increased temperature. He'd fell to his knees.
 
"You waited for us to show up before doing that?" Asuza asked, looking stone faced. "Do demons always talk in monologues? I'm borrowing that axe of yours!" She snatched Iceik's axe and began floating. 

But what would it be doing here in a snowcovered mountaain of all things? That doesn't make a lick of sense....

"Whatever! You talk too much and your breath reeks of rotten turnips!" If she could aim for its eyes and poke them out she could easily pick it off and throw it down the crevasse of the bridge.
 
"Yes! You have no idea what it like! Because of my body constantly heating up,  I never get the chance to enjoy the snow! However, this area is filled with some mysterious aura that constantly produce the snow!" The demon shouted out. "So, once I'm done with you, I'll build my own ice kingdom! Haha!" He fired off a blast towards Asuza. 


Iceik's ears went up. "I.. I hear something .. another person, the same person I sense before!" For some reason, Iceik felt "fear", the person he sense, he couldn't described in detailed. All he think that whoever coming, had a heart filled with rage.
 
"How the hell would that even work? Hell freezing over has a better chance...." Asuza used her levitation to try and evade the blast,  although it would annoy her greatly if it happened to singe her clothes, since fire on a fire witch wouldn't be very affective. And neither would fire magic on a fire demon. 

"Why don't you chill out!" Asuza used her remote teleportation to appear up close to the demon's face, swinging the axe with intent to hit its eyes. Even if she had little upper body strength, the witch had little options.
 
"S-shut up! It doesn't have to make sense for yo-" The demon shouted, but didn't expect the little fire witch to appeared in front of him in a instant. Unable to react, both of his eyes were slashed. "Ayyyahh!" He jump back, covering his face with his arms. "Ahhh! You're gonna get it now!!!!" The monster, unable to see, was going to blow everything in his path. "You're all gonna burn!!" The fire demon was about to unleashed his attack, but he'd stopped when he sense a presence of a man behind him.

Iceik narrowed his eyes. "W-who's that?" 

"...." The man was silent. He stood still on the end road of the bridge.
 
Asuza's grip on the axe tightened, moving herself backwards to prepare for incoming attacks. She seemed mostly unaware of the man until she heard Iceik speak. "Is that the guy we saw earlier?..." she squinted theough the blowing snow.
 
"Yes.. that's him.. there's something off about him." Iceik sweated a bit. 

"Huh? Is this your boyfriend!?" The Fire Demon laughed. "No matter.." He turns towards Asuza again. "We're not done yet.. My sight made be gone, but I can still sense you!" The demon rushes towards Asuza.

"Watch out!" Iceik shouted.
 
Asuza had no time to prepare for another teleport, so she swung the axe backwards over her head and swung it back down to aim for the front of its skull. "Not if I crush your senses out first!" Her swing was ill-timed, and was liable to not connect in time.
 
The axe struck directly down on the demon's head. Blood sprayed out of it's skull, splitting it wide open as the demon cried in agony. "Uh... you.. think that'll kill me..!?" The demon wrapped it's arms around her. "I-I.. make you squeeze you to deat-th..!" as the blood spilling out of it's forehead. It's speech became slurred. 

"I need to help her.." Iceik tried to move, but couldn't. He turns and noticed the presence of the man walking towards the two battling it out.
 
"Hnngh! Ack!" Asuza couldn't get a word out due to the monster squeezing the life force out of her torso. She felt her ribcage screaming to be released, her lungs ached for air. But she couldn't so much as breathe in from how hard it had been constricting her. The force made her let go of the axe, the bloody weapon falling into the reddened snow, or what was left of it.

At this rate, I'm going to die...
