Rachel stood there as Lilith held down Adrian with all she had. But she could see Adrian starting to overpower Lilith. Rachel took a step forward but was stopped by Lilianna.

"Don't get near them cause he is slowly draining Lilith's strength" she said.

"Why is she covering his mouth?" asked Rachel.

"If he speaks out the incantation to force Lilith to her weapon form. We will all die." Lilianna replied.

"It will be that bad?" Asked Rachel

"Lilith isn't the strongest of the primal weapons but when wielded by death. She is the deadliest" replied Lilianna as
Lilith was starting to lose to Adrian. 

He eventually got an arm free and was trying to remove her hand from his mouth. Her grip was slipping. She released her grip on his other arm and placed her hand covering her other one. The attempt was for nothing cause once his other arm was free he ripped her hands from over his mouth and spoke.

Adrian spoke in a language Rachel has never heard before. But it felt familiar to her. It was commanding and Lilith struggled to not listen. She covered her ears as fast as she could so maybe she could drowned out the incantation. Adrian grabbed her hands and pulled them away. He leaned down and whispered something and Lilith froze. 

Her voluptuous body started to thin out as her black hair started to shine like metal as it combined together to make a obsidian blade. Lilith went from a bombshell of a woman to a ancient black scythe in Adrian's hand. Giant raven wings sprouted from his back.
Lilianna stepped in front of Rachel and Rebecca. A blinding light filled the room coming from Lilianna.

"Your little light show can't stop me" said adrian flapping his new wings.

"It was never meant to stop you" she replied. 

The light was getting brighter causing Rachel and her mom to close and cover their eyes.

"Sorry it took me a while to get here. I got lost til I saw the light" said a voice 

The light dimmed down to the point Rachel could open her eyes and see it was Belle. She was still in her school uniform. Belle walks up to Lilianna and takes her hand. Without even speaking Lilianna started to change. She thinned out turning into a ornate golden staff. Causing angelic white wings to sprout from Belle's back.

"You are just going to hurt yourself using the power of life. Your body will give out" said Adrian.

Belle didn't even reply. She just tapped Lilianna on the ground and a barrier appeared around Adrian. He swung Lilith and she just bounced off the shield. He swung her a few more times but the shield held up.

"This is made of all the power Lilianna has been draining from me. You won't be able to break it that easily." Said Belle

Adrian tapped Lilith on the floor and forced his own energy out against the barrier. He managed to expand the barrier out another foot before he started to strain. 

Adrian stilled and closed his eyes. There was a eerie silence in room the only sounds was everyone's breathing. 
The amount of energy building inside Adrian was growing exponentially. A black aura enveloped Lilith as you could hear her pained screams. 
The moment Adrian opened his eyes he slashed at the barrier and it crumbled.

The amount of energy that was released as the barrier fell caused everyone but Adrian to be thrown back. Belle hit the wall hard enough to knock her out cold. Lilianna change back and tended to her. The strain Adrian put on Lilith made her transform back to her human form. Adrian stood there holding Lilith's hand while she was collapsed on the floor. 

"No more master" pleaded Lilith. "I'll die if you do that again. 

Adrian released her hand and stared at her. "Well if you don't submit to me then I will kill you" he said.

Lilith was hesitant but she submitted. "As you wish master"

Lilith gained her strength and stood up. The aura she gave off was completely different. The little bit of life in her eyes disappeared. It was now like she was a mindless weapon. She wrapped her arms around the back of Adrian's neck. 

"I the scythe of death Lilith submit to you and you alone Lord Death. For you are my one true master. I will become an extension of your arms and your will." Said Lilith before she kissed Adrian. 

"We are doomed' said Lilianna.

"What do you mean" asked Rachel.

Lilianna immediately put up a life barrier around them.

"A wielder can't fully use a weapon if the weapon isn't willing. So when Adrian forced his power into Lilith to break the barrier it almost killed her." Said Lilianna.

"So since she has fully submitted to him now he can freely channel his full power through her" said Rachel questionly. 

"Exactly. But now there isn't any one who can stop him. Belle body can't withstand the amount of energy needed to stop him." Said Lilianna.

This time when Lilith changed to her weapon form it was different. Her blade was now void of all light. Skulls were etched into the staff. She became the weapon of story tales. Adrian's wings now had void black armor lining the the bones.

"That barrier will not impede me at all." Said Adrian.

He touched the barrier with his hand and it shattered. Lilianna quickly put up another but it quickly fell like the first one. The panick in her eyes made Rachel's stomach drop. If the calm and collected Lilianna was afraid then there was no hope.

Adrian picked up Lilianna by the throat. Rachel wanted to scream but she couldn't make a noise. Rebecca wrapped her arms around her daughter as they both watch Lilianna get impaled by Lilith through the stomach. The life drained from her like the blood poured from her body to the floor. Adrian threw her away like trash.
He turned to Belle's unconscious body and reached for it. But Rachel jumped into the way to block him. 

"You will not kill her Adrian" demanded Rachel.

"It matters not to me in what order you all die" he said as he pick Rachel up by her arm.

Rachel kicked at him and clawed at the hand holding her. But it didn't phase him. He brought Lilith's blade up to her neck and pressed it against her.

All the light in the room vanished. Rachel could feel something else was there now as a voice came into her head. 

"Do not fear us." Said the voice 

Rachel couldn't see anything in the dark. But she still felt the blade and the hand around her throat. But that all changed in an instant. Now she was being held bridal style. She looks in the direction of her savior's face and a set of ice cold blue eyes stared down at her. 

"You are safe now princess" said her rescuer.

She couldn't see anything besides the glow of the person's eyes. They were piercing.

"Who are you? And what happened to Adrian?" asked Rachel.

Rachel was set down and all the darkness in the room was sucked into the person with the blue eyes. It took a second for Rachel's eyes to re-adjust. 

What stood in front of her was a man covered in black from head to toe. His voice echoed as he spoke. He sounded like a dead man.

"That is not important right now. We have come to stop Death"

Rachel turns and sees another man was over Lilianna. From what she could see he looks very similar to Adrian, like a twin. The only difference she could find was his short hair.
