DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter Chapter Five: JUNIOR YEAR OF A BLOODCASTER
As the night rolled in, we sat around the table for dinner. Joined by our housekeeper, Clarissa. I always wondered about Clarissa’s life ambitions and what exactly brought her to my family’s home.
So I asked. “Clarissa why did you start working for my family?”
A question I see startled her. For some reason my mum head lowered to the floor. My brother and sister both looking just as confused as me.
So I repeated the question. This time with a more direct voice. “Clarissa why did you start working for our family?”
She responded “Because I love your family. I knew they would be good to work for every since I first applied to work for them.”
“How long have you been in my family. I suspect for many years.” I asked
“Actually my dear, it has been many generations I have been with your family.” Clarissa says.
“How many generations?” I asked
“I don’t remember to be honest.” She responded.
“Kyra stop asking so many questions and finish your dinner.” My mum said.
She appeared angry at my questioning. Everyone return to their meals with me and my mum staring at each other with silent looks. I was angry so when we finished our meal. I went to confront her.
“What is going on mum?” I said.
“There are things about our family and this home that we must not unearth.” My mum said.
“What type of things?” I asked.
“Things that are delicate and not appropriate to bring up.” She responded.
“Are those things related to Clarissa?” I asked.
She looked away and left for her room. Before I could follow her. I appeared in my room. It was apparently the work of my mum using her magic against me. Instead of pushing the issue. I was growing tired so I headed to bed.
The next morning school started and while gearing up for classes as a junior was difficult enough. Ace shows up at my door wanting to carpool with me and his mum. Awkward enough, my mum shows up behind me at the door and agrees to it. Showing an interest of disgust. I left and hell begun. Ace tampering me for not calling him back. We arrived at the school with kids outside waiting for their school to start. Walking into the cafeteria, I noticed Kadeem, Kristos, Kycenia, Kachine, and Kachina all at the table waiting for me. Ace following me, I walked up to table with each of them smiling at me.
“What are you guys doing here?” I asked.
“We go here now.” Kachine says.
“Who is your friend?” asks Kycenia.
“I am Ace. Who are you guys?” responds Ace before I could say anything.
Introducing themselves each as my cousin.
“Wait including you?” asks Ace pointing to Kadeem.
“Yeah including me. Is there a problem with that?” responds Kadeem. Eagerly ready to strike Ace.
“Calm down Kadeem.” I said.
“I did not mean anything by it.” Ace says before walking off to class.
“I will see you around.” I said to Ace.
“What are you guys doing here?” I asked.
“We figured with the demons obviously having an interest in you for whatever reason. We are enrolled her to protect and watch out for you. Says Kachina.
“Not like you need our help.” Smiles Kachine.
Kachina rolling her eyes. Takes Kachine by the arm and the two wishes me luck on my first day and walks off to class.
“I am excited at going back to school. Mortal school seems like fun.” Says Kristos as he leaves off to his class.
“Yeah fun. Mortals and their issues.” Says Kadeem rolling his eyes.
“Be careful, remember the demons can be anyone at any time.” Says Kycenia walking away.
I continue off to class. Not realizing several students staring at me as I walked away.
In my first class, a guy bejeweled with a spikey necklace, golden and silver earrings and rings on his fingers. He was like a rocker enrolled with a hippy. He sat and smiled at me. As the teacher taught the class, I smiled as I glanced at him smiling at me. Also in my class was Kachine who surprisingly appeared jealous. My first class was now over and it was time for Math. The guy appeared in that class too. This time I was with Kristos as my classmate. The guy now sitting by me introduced himself with a note he passed to me.
“Hi my name is Karos B.” as simple as it was. His name was very familiar. But nonetheless I was token by him. Kristos laughing was amused at my attention toward the guy. The following class was study hall and I was in the library. Karos walked in and immediately noticed me. He sat down at the table I was studying at. Ace walking by tried to get my attention but my attention was refocused. Ace not too happy by this walked up to me and introduced himself to Karos. An unconcern Karos continued looking at me. While the librarian issued for us to be quiet. Ace tried to get my attention. Without my knowledge, Karos used magic to have Ace walk away without notice. Leaving the library. When I tried to figure out what has happened. Karos turned the attention to him again by asking me out for lunch.
“Will you do me the pleasure in joining me for lunch in the cafeteria.” Says Karos.
“Sure I will.” I laughed.
Lunch came about and the two of us laughed and the remaining of the room appeared almost empty. Karos made me feel like I was the only one in the room. I talked about my family and my adventurous summer. Leaving out all the magical moments of course. My cousins looked onward from the other side of the cafeteria with Ace from the opposite side staring at me. Angry he left with my cousins obviously worried about the guy who I was with. At the end of the day Karos offered to give me a ride home. However, Kachina and Kachine interrupted to take me home. We left in their car.
“Who is that guy?” asks Kachina.
“His name is Karos and he likes me. For some reason I feel like I can tell him anything.” I said.
“You know you can’t right? Asks Kachine.
“Of course I know that” I said.
“He is not good for you.” Kachine says.
“Well thanks for the support.” I said now at my home walking up the stairs.
“You know you are her cousin right?” says Kachina to Kachine.
“I know, it doesn’t make it easier though.” Says Kachine.
“You disgust me.” Says Kachina.
The two drive off. From a distance one of the new kids from school stares through the gates of my home. He watches as Kachina and Kachine drives off. He smiles and walks away. School started the next day as it did the day before. But today I did not see Karos anywhere. He was absent from all of our joint classes. Ignoring Ace’s advances throughout the day. My focus has turned to Karos and I was worried about him. So worried that I manage to get his address from a student that knew where he lived. The student warned me that his house is a creepy house that many people in the neighborhood believe is haunted. Knowing a thing or two about hauntings and ghost I turned my attention onto finding Karos. Approaching his house. It appeared as a massive two story home with large trees in the yard. The house was covered in vines and the sky sort of darkened around it. Giant towers were found on the back and east portion of the home. I tried to open the gates but they were locked. As I was about to walk away from his home. I saw a glimpse of him at the window of an upstairs room. I used my telekinetic power onto the gates and I entered his property. Understanding now why many believe this place is haunted. It gave off a dark vibe. As I walked up the stairs. The front door opened to reveal one of the new kids from school at the door.
“What do you want?” he said.
Taken back by his direct rude tone.
“Is Karos home?” I asked.
He walked away and Karos came to the door. Smiling I could tell something was wrong. Asking him, he passed the question and offered to go somewhere to hang out. I mentioned to him about his whereabouts at school had me worried.
“You was worried about me?” he asks smiling.
“Yes just a little bit.” I said returning a smile.
“You’re very cute. Love your smile.” He says.
Clearly blushing, I offered to come in to hang out. Hesitant, he accepts. The two of us walks through his house which he gives me the tour. His house appeared on the inside exactly as mine. Including the same outline of our living room with pictures frames with no visible pictures or mirrors throughout the home. Even the windows of the home were covered. The home was dark, gloomy and very creepy. It could have been the complete mirror image of my home. We walked pass the main room where the new kids were sitting around. As Karos ignored their request for me as an audience. The girl wanted him to introduce me. Hesitant and wanting to leave. I introduced myself. She introduced herself as Karla.
“K runs in your house too. So does my family. It is somewhat of a tradition.” I said.
“O really? Did you hear that Karos, K runs in her family just like ours.” She says with a smirk on her face.
Confused. I turned to the rest of the group. A short punk rock guy jumps up and kisses my hand. Introduces himself as Kent. A southern bell girl very reminiscent of Kycenia. Introduced herself as Koraline while a tall slinky guy standing near the window introduced himself as Kendem.
“How many of you live here?” I asked.
“Ten of us.” A girl walking in said. She introduced herself as Kymberly and the guy that answered the door walked down the stairs and introduced himself as Koran. Koran offered me something to drink which Karos shouted no. He rushed me to the door and walked me out.
“You have to go now.” He said.
“Why, did I do something wrong?” I asked.
“No you did not. I will see you tomorrow.” He said. He closed the door and I walked away. I looked back toward the house with Karos looking out the window waving goodbye.
“You can’t protect her from what is coming” said Koran to Karos.
“I can try.” Said Karos.
The days passed and the days went by like the previous ones. School came in and out. My cousins and I took each day to learn more about the Bringers of Norgard while mixing in our school work. As pity as it seemed school just wasn’t as important as before. But because of the normal of things. I had no other choice but to attend. Karos was in and out of school. His attendance made me worry since the day I was at his house. It is a mystery over his house and the people staying with him. I told myself that I had to see him again and find out what is going on with him. So the next day it was Saturday. I went over to his house but no one answered. I turned around and he was standing behind me.
“I wanted to see you and ask what is going on with you.” I said.
“We can talk, let’s go somewhere.” He says.
We left to Piccadilly Square for lunch. We had pizza, sat, and ate. He begin to tell me that the people in his house are his siblings. He says that his parents are away on a trip and once we were old enough to take care of ourselves left for work. Asking what his parents do and if it was hard to not have his parents there at home. He responded that he is not a fan of his family. That they are mean and doesn’t support him or his dreams. Before I could give some sort of comfort. I too could not as I felt as him or at least at one point in my life. We turned our attention on each other and the festivities of the area.
In the coming weeks things would turn for the worse. As I gave all my attention to hanging out with Karos and growing closer with him. My cousins were constantly preparing for the coming apocalypse that we were told of while in Eternity. My mum was teaching my brother and sister various spells. Given up the idea to exclude them from what was happening around them. Receiving a call from Kadamba about the upcoming family Christmas vacation. My mum told me about a century old tradition in our family that we were excluded from because all the magic that goes into these gatherings. I was very excited about it. Not about the part of not seeing Karos for nearly two weeks. But the part where I got to see the other side of my family. We traveled through the normal entrance in the backyard to my family’s home in the magical community. Once there I could see my cousins all using their magic to decorate the home with bright lights and Christmas decoration. As Kylie and Kyle ran inside to join the other kids. My mum joined the elders in the main room. I joined my cousins. Kycenia told me to concentrate my magical energy toward a decoration and lift it into the air. She mentioned that it’s called Levitation which is a variation of the more powerful Telekinesis. She mentions that any and almost every magical being can learn it just by using Energy Magic. Following their direction, I assisted in hanging ornaments around the yard. Including erecting a large tree in the backyard. Magic was everywhere. The air was scented with candy and the smell of bread and muffins could be found near the side of the home. Aunts and Uncles danced around the fire as the skies lit up. It started to snow. Kadamba called everyone to the massive size windows in the main gathering hall. The lights dimmed with the snow cleared from the windows. Dancing ladies dressed in long white dresses formed outside. They were the Spirits of the Snow, servants to the Snow Goddess. Kycenia distant herself from the windows as she fell sick with sight. Her stomach started to ache and her head was pounding. The room turned a brisk cold. The ceiling covered now in ice. Kycenia floated toward the ceiling unleashing a massive amounts of energy throughout the room. Her eyes pure white, her hair and skin now colored to match. Our family started to worry.
“What is happening?” I asked
“She is awakening” says Kadamba
“Who is awakening?” I asked
“Like most members of our family’s legacy. Ancient beings have taken home within in our bloodline. Such as the Snow Goddess, Snow. A dark seductive woman who once loved the King of the gods, Born’. When he did not return her love. She spun the world into eternal darkness. Covering it in ice. This moment in time was called the Ice Age. For punishment, Born’ banished Snow into a prison locked away in time.” Says Kadamba.
“Yes and thanks to him. I rose up more powerful than ever.” Says Kycenia.
“That is not Kycenia.” Says Kachine.
“You are right Kycenia died when she was only a little girl by an illness. I covered it up by taking over her lifecycle barely keeping her alive. If it wasn’t for me. Your precious cousin would be dead.” Says Snow.
From within Kycenia’s body, Snow has overtaken her body and is using her magic to recreate the Ice Age. This time in the magical community. With every part of our surroundings covered in ice, we could not see anything outside. Black as night was the skies and Christmas had become something of a nightmare. Releasing amounts of powerful magic. Snow and Kycenia started to integrate with one another. With bright blue eyes, long white hair, and a Hindu style fuku. Snow has been completely restored and my cousin Kycenia was now dead.
“I am back and I will have my vengeance on this world and the next.” Says Snow.
“You’re fight is with the gods not with us.” Says Kadamba.
“Correction, my fight is with you and the gods.” Says Snow.
“You see I was one of the most powerful deities in my reign. The gods grew stronger due to humans worshipping them. But weakened when I spun the world into the Ice Ages. With little power to fight me. Your ancestors help the gods to banish me. Believing that I would overthrow even their power. So now you know why I chose your family and why I am here to take my vengeance on the Balkurians ancestors.” Says Snow.
“Little due you know, we don’t like our ancestors even more than you do.” I said.
“But their blood runs through all of you. It gets stronger each generation. I know what they are planning and I will be damned if they succeed at it.” Says Snow.
“What do you mean? What are they planning? Asks my mum.
Snow continued to fight us. With every blow she grew stronger. Her soldiers attacked us as we protected the young and used attacks. It was another battle among us. With all the fighting previously, now down a soldier, and friend. We are tired of it and are ready to end this fight for good. The hours past and nothing has changed. Snow continues to grow stronger and reports on the radio are saying that her effects can be felt across the dimensions. Once playing Christmas music, the radio now only speaks of a new Ice Age amongst us. In fiery, Kycenia’s parents release a fire spell which shattered most of the ice soldiers of Snow. However, with their regenerative abilities they came back to stance. As if nothing could stop them. Snow herself, as beautiful as she appeared. Was covered from head to toe with rage. Her tears from the past. One could tell she was reliving every moment of her past with the god, Born’ again. Her love betrayed, Snow was going to take it out on everyone. Thinking quickly, Kristos pulled us from the fight to discuss the possibility of summoning the god Born’. Hoping that her attention would turn toward the deity.
After much attempts even our magic wasn’t enough to summon him. But Kadamba thought the plan was brilliant. Able to read minds, Kadamba was also able to send us a mental thought without letting our plans be known. While still fighting against Snow. Kadamba mentioned a spell capable of allowing us direct access to the gods. We ran to the other room to follow his instructions. Afterwards, we held hands in a ring. We drew the power from my blood since I was the last person capable of blood magic in the room. The ring lit up and a weird sigil appeared between us. Signs decorated of different colors shot upward around the room. As we concentrated on the name of the deity. With a wide blast of energy knocking us to the ground. Born’ appeared as grand as his pictures. He was tall with a long beard and a helmet on his head. His attire was similar to those of the ancient Greeks. A toga and staff. One earring dangled from his right ear with a ring on his right finger. He shouted why was he summoned and how was he summoned by those that were not gods themselves. His voice was loud like thunder and it echoed throughout the house. So much that the doors to the room froze to ice and shuttered to pieces. With Snow on the other end. She hovered into the room and her eyes placed on Born’. She was angry but slightly still adored by his sight. As Born’ welcomed her in open arms. He quickly also asked of how she came about being here. To which the ice goddess turned to us and threw us to the walls. Where we were pinned by ice sickles. The room begin to freeze with the oxygen thinning. Born’ unaffected by the change in temperature tried to calm the goddess. However, she just fought him. With her rage, Snow’s power was effecting the oxygen of not just the room but the house and of outside. Animals and even nature itself was dying because of the lack of heat and oxygen in the area. We watched as the battle continued. The weather was crushing everything below with almost entirely the mansion being the only thing left standing in sight. With the battle roaring inside. That was barely.
In the wake of everything around us. My cousins kept their faith. That everything will work out fine and we will honor Kycenia. However, to mourn her properly we had to put an end to everything that has been happening. Going back into the other room where the members of our family were facing off against the ice soldiers. We noticed that they were weakening as Snow outside was fighting Born’. Her attention was being drawn away from our fight. This gave us the perfect opportunity to ban together to cast a spell. That would allow us to expel the soldiers and give us time to recuperate.
“Born’ and Snow doesn’t seem to be giving up their fight.” Says my mum.
“The two once were lovers. The fight is not because they hate each other. But because they love each other still to this day.” Says Kadamba.
“We have to stop this before this world is turn to ice.” I said.
“At this point we don’t have the power to defeat Snow. We just have to hope that Born’ does.” Says Kachina.
All of us were peering out of the windows of the home. From different rooms and levels of the house. We watched as the fight continued. Thunder mixed with heavy snow. White foggy skies and racing rivers of ice covered the area. Before we could succumb to the thought of Snow falling the wake of her battle with Born’. The tide suddenly changed. They were talking but we could not make up the words they were saying.
In the midst of the turning tide in the battle. Born’ crashed into the window in front of me. Snow laughing hovers toward him, grabs him by the neck and threatens him. Her eyes now a dark blue has tears of ice running down her cheek. The windows froze with sparkling glowing ice around the window panes. We could not see anything. And then out of the darkness that has overcame the room. Born’ crashed through the window. Covered in blood he was laying on the ground. We ran to help him up, before we could help him. We were again pinned to the floor by Snow. Hair flowing the wind that echoed throughout the room. She has now taken her true form. Her skin was like porcelain and hair like flowing ice. Her short skirt now a long dress enhanced with sparkling panes of ice and glass. It was like looking at a doll. As I looked at her a vision struck my mind. In the vision it showed what happened long ago to the goddess Snow.
In the vision:
“Two lovers, Snow and the king of the gods Born’ kept their romance a secret from everyone in fear of the retaliation from the queen Crienta. Although their romance was seen whenever the two crossed eyes. Many viewed it as true love. With so many previous loves, no one has ever seen Born’ happier with anyone else than the time he was with Crienta. The goddess was strong, beautiful, envy of everyone, she also had the potential of being the new queen. Something that Born’ adored about Snow. However, his betrayal would one day be shown when dark powers influenced him to cheat on the queen with other women. For punishment, the queen banished Born’ to a dark world where he could not escape. She replaced him with his inner image. The version of himself that still loved her. She called this version the god Vecknur. The queen and the god continued to rule the heavens and took charge over all those within their kingdom. However for Born’, the god that loved to much. Was never heard from again. However, the forces that influenced him took his image and started to use his image and power to change the world. They overthrew the gods from within and for those that did not know of his true absence. Their blindness was taken advantage of. The dark forces called out the darkest of magic and brought the down the gods with the help of the imprisoned giants known as the Valkens. As the gods fell so did their influence on the world. Magic grew stronger in their absence. With the High Council the overseers of Heaven, Angels, and all things magic took notice. The dark forces took their aim at them as well. Still with his image, the dark forces took Born’s image and influenced the goddess Snow. He would have sex with numerous women and men. In hopes that Snow would find out and throw the world under her spell. A situation which played out as planned. Snow showcased her anger toward humans and the gods for Born’s betrayal. She turned him into ice and shattered him and threw the world into a massive blizzard which lasted for nearly a year. With most of the world dying under the cold temperatures. Snow took the reigns as queen over the new world. In anger, the remaining gods and the High Council fought Snow. With anger now her weapon. Her powers would grow intensely. Nearly most of the world has frozen to death and the rest was near death. The High Council had to act fast. So together with the gods and all forms of magical beings. Knowing that they could not destroy the goddess. They instead banished her into another world. A world sealed away in flames. However, as time progressed Snow managed to find a way out through a young caster who shared her power. A young caster calling out for help as she was dying at the age of three. The caster was my cousin Kycenia. She could feel Snow’s agony and the two shared pain. Snow who knowing the girl’s health conditions would have her dead by the end of the coming winter. Connected her soul with the girl’s. The two combined into one body and Kycenia was saved. Her dreams would serve as the window to see the outside world. Whenever Kycenia was in harm she could fall back on her blood magic. Nevertheless, when the blood magic was not enough. Snow would intervene to protect her. Knowing Kycenia’s death could be the end of her returning to the world. That is until she grew strong enough to take over Kycenia. Because my cousin was only hanging on in this world because of Snow’s influence. When Snow took complete control over her. Kycenia no longer could stand on her own in this world. So her soul left this world. “
The vision was over and I returned to the world seeing Snow hovering over Born’. When I repeated what I saw. Born’ concluded it all was correct. Confused and even angrier than before. Snow released a wave of icy fury across the land. Now in an emotional state. It was the time for us to strike. Born’ told us something while Snow was in a trance brought on by her releasing her full power. He mentioned that there is a way to kill an immortal god. He summoned a weapon and told me to use my blood on the blade. Hesitant at first. I followed his command. The dagger glowed. He then told me to propel it into her chest.
“I can’t do that, that is still Kycenia’s body.” I said in tears.
“That is no longer your cousin.” Says Born’
With all eyes on me. I had no other choice. Snow was going to kill us all and place the world into a blanket of ice. Using my magic I shot the dagger into her heart. Her body turned to ice, the weather outside begun to wither with snow melting and her soldiers breaking into pieces of glass. Her tears turned to water and she turned back into Kycenia’s body. Snow was defeated and all was returning to normal. Laughter could be heard throughout the room. Kycenia’s spirit appeared in front of us. With tears on everyone’s eyes. I cried the hardest and apologized for killing her.
Using Kadamba as a conduit to talk to us.
“It was not your fault. I died a long time ago. Snow was able to barely keep me awake by using her power and my blood magic. I love you all and I will watch over each and one of you. I will visit you when you need me. Just think of me and summon me and I will appear.”
With the light shining through the window. The light shinned down to us from outside and Kycenia disappeared. Tears flowed throughout the silence of the aftermath of the room. Born’ disappeared and Kycenia’s body evaporated through the form of magic.
Our Christmas was left with silence, the decorations and festivities stopped and everyone returned to their homes. Kachine, Kachina, Kadeem, and Kristos took residence at my home back on Earth. My mum, Kyle, and Diana took passionately to the idea. After everything we been through it would be good to have support and the extra protection since it has become apparent that the dark forces are after the blood magic in our family. With me being the only one remaining in my family to have blood magic. It was more than ever important for me to stay safe.
The remaining week passed and school started back up. My cousins and I all returned to school. As soon as I saw Karos at his locker in the hallway. I ran up to him, gave him a hug and kissed him. Surprised at my actions. He kissed me back and hugged me tightly. I felt as if he knew what I was going through. But his comfort was so warm and inviting I did not think twice about it.
School started back after Christmas like normal. Classes and lots of homework. I distant myself more from Ace and moved closer to Karos. Feeling as if Karos would understand more for some reason. I could not place my finger on it. But I just knew that Karos would understand. We spend countless time together. His family snarled at us from a distance with my own doing the same. With everything that has happened, my family grows weary of anyone new coming around me. With Kycenia now gone. Things have not been the same throughout my family. Trust is absence and various members of our family are taking breaks from their magic. The tragedy has been one of very few in the last few centuries. Since everything with the Bringers of Norgard and their servants. The ghost and hooded figures all have also been absent from my home. Silent whispers could be heard throughout my dreams as the nights passed by. I felt as if something was brewing but with everything that has happened thus far. It did not seem appropriate for me to think nor discuss it out loud.
In a dark room, various figures stand with hoods and a glowing symbol beneath them.
“Now that one of their own has been taken away from them. Everything is playing out as predicted so many centuries ago by our creators. Now is the time to attack, now is the time to make our move. While the Lazaron family is weak and distracted by recent events.” Says one of the male figures.
“What about him, he will try and stop us. What if he tells her?” says another figure in a female voice.
“Then it is time for us to do something about him. Either he return to us or we will be force to vanquish him. We have come too far for this all to fail now.” Says the male figure again.
Meanwhile, back at the mansion. The house has been very quiet. Clarissa, my mum, Kyle, and Diana have all been avoiding each other. The silence was unbarable so I decided to have a family outing. Dinner on the town and I invited Kristos, Kadeem, Kachina, and Kachine along as well. Much to my surprise the night had turn out better than I anticipated. It was fun, the night air was great, and of course had it wonderful 1970s vibe. Glowing lights and trending music. It was a night to remember. But before the joy could sink in. Walking along the Thames River seeing the bright bridges and the coursing lights along the riverside. A massive fireball like the one we saw while traveling toward Norgard hits the river. Several more followed in sequence hitting various points of interest including the London Eye and Big Ben. The Tower Bridge was hit as well. It was an all-out terrorist attack on The City. The hooded figures were back riding the wind across the sky. Launching various magic attacks toward bystanders. Kachine raced around the river helping anyone he could find from the attacks. Several demonic creatures, Warvue in smaller forms, Sholls, and spirits were roaming the streets. My mum ordered us to stop them but be careful as to not get caught using magic. Kristos conjured white cloaks with hoods to cover our faces and clothing. Glowing white in the night. It distant us from the appearance of the hooded figures. My mum with my siblings launched attacks toward the Warvue as they approached them. Seeking to take my brother and sister’s blood magic. The Warvue pounced. Meanwhile, with Kristos he created a Ring of Expulsion. This ring would lit up around the Thames River to expel angry spirits from this world. Although effective. It was not without its faults as most spirits could overcome it if they were strong enough. Some were. Giant spirit creatures came from the river with spirits of various sizes and shapes raining from the sky. It was officially hell on Earth. Kachina released a massive gust of air across the streets to propel the Sholls into the river. Proven that the Sholls hated water. She was on to something. Noticing the effects it had on their scaly skins. The water was like acid. Using my telekinetic abilities I threw several of the demons into the water. But as we fought, more would continue to come.
In orderly fashion, swirling white lights rushed down from the skies. Assisting the fight, the angels have come to our assistance. As the battle of Norgard repeats itself in front of my vary eyes. I noticed oddly familiar figures standing in the shadows on the London Bridge overlooking the fight. They were just staring in silence. Each with smiles on their faces. Each looked in my direction. One walked toward me and they all vanished in thin air. The Warvue, spirits, and the Sholls all disappeared. The angels committed to erasing memories of those that witnessed the fight and cleaned up the damage in the process. I watch my family pull the pieces together and then my mum came to me.
“During the fight, your brother and sister was stricken of their blood magic. You are the remaining member of our family that has the power to use it now.” She said to me.
My brother and sister heads were lowered and mine raised to the stars. As Kachine, Kachina, Kadeem, and Kristos each came to me. They mentioned that the Bringers released this as a possible lead in to the Apocalypse.
Angels fluttered down to us, now dressed like normal humans.
“We are the Domaedians, you know us as angels of Heaven. We were sent by the High Council to assist and protect you.” Says one of the angels.
“Thanks for your help, but we don’t need your assistance. Angels and demons could just leave us alone.” Says Kadeem.
One of the angels in anger stepped forward, with another stopping her with his arm. The angel responded:
“You need our help as we need yours. If you have not noticed, the Bringers are testing each of you, most notably you Kyra. Because you have very powerful blood magic. Why is a question that the Bringers must know the answer too.” Says the angel.
“But why me?” I asked.
“I do not know, but the High Council is trying to figure it out.” He responded.
The angels disappeared leaving us in the aftermath of yet another battle for our lives.
