The Seraphim Tower was in the Insect's possession. The Holy Beast army was prepared near the entrance, waiting for the Beast General's command. An atmosphere of tension came over the field where the holy Beasts stood. The Beast General thought carefully for a moment: " This isn't right, if the Insect clan wants the tower so badly, why aren't there any guards?". The Beast captains ask the General what is he so deep in thought about. The General, with a wary look at the castle, tries to rationalize these thoughts, and ignores them.
*****
(in the Insect Commander's head quarters)
The commander grins, laughs and declares is assurance:" Today, we will defeat the Beasts and taint this land!". He then sends the command for the tainted insects to attack.
*****
(Outside the tower)
A malevolent feeling fell on the Holy Beasts. Suddenly, Tainted Insects burst open the tower doors and thrash towards the Holy Beast army! Hunters fire at the insects in the attempt to slow them down, the warriors embrace for impact.
Following the tainted insects, masses of insects come out of the tower to attack. All insect units in the tower attended this battle, outnumbering the Holy Beasts 4 to1.. The ranks of warriors were starting to shader, the captains ordered them to not disperse, healers, illusionists and hunters did all they could to aid the warriors. The tainted insects infected the Beasts with every slash, Elementalists aided the flanks, everyone hade their hands full... the current battle situation appeared one-sided!
*****
The Insect Commander laughed in a malicious manner. The same Insect patrollers presented themselves once more to tell news, the Commander slowly stopped laughing and turned his attention with anger to the two. The Patrollers nervously report to the Commander:
" Co-commander sir! th-the patrols w-were lessened in order t-to support the battle for the t-tower, and...".
"And what!? What is so important that you have to interrupt me" said the commander.
"W-well, umm..., Holy Beast reenforcements from Fire Bird Castle came right through us in Star Dust Beach...".
"WHAT?! NO!"
*****
(Battle field)
When all hope of winning the battle seem to have faded, Bird Clan reenforcements come to the aid. When the Holy Beasts heard marching approaching from Stardust Beach, their Will to fight heated up! As the insect forces were decreasing, they fled in separate directions. Healers briefly aided the wounded and the Holy Beast army enters the castle at the Generals command.

(Insect headquarters)
"This can't be!! I was supposed to emerge victorious!!"
The commander fled through a secret exit. And the tower was restored.
To be continued...
