"Just a reminder. I never wanted to be here", he sighed. "It's his birthday, Joe". He sighed again. He'd never thought he'd meet the crocodile man from Club Go again. Now they were family friends. Emily knocked at the door. "Joe! ". Joe sighed again, feeling his heart sink. Emily rubbed his back. The door opened
Expensive bulbs illuminated the restaurant since it was late at night. So many people had come there to eat and relax themselves from the stress of the day. "It is over between us Joe! I am done!" Emily fired at Joe heavily.Joe couldn't believe his eyes, "you mean you called me here to tell me it is over?" He asked in disbelief. His heart shattered into pieces at an instant. "Don't you get it? You are just too broke. I can't be with a person like you! No… not any more," she emptied with disgust rustling out of her voice. The people in the restaurant could feel how disgusted Joe was, merely hearing Emily's voice. The people's attention was fixed on them, since they wouldn't stop their dramatic display. Joe couldn't say another word, he felt hopeless and empty within him. "I am sorry Joe! It is all over now," she said and was about walking off him. Joe couldn't control himself, he held one of her hands immediately.Emily paused her step, she looked behind her. Joe was looking at h
'How would she dump me like that,' He muttered within himself, because he couldn't just wrap his head around the whole situation.He looked around and it was like his world is crumbling down. 'Don't you get it! It's all over!' those words hurt him more than anything.He could feel the pain within his heart. It is as if she is just spuing those words. He stands up from his bed being fatigued, 'today is a very long day,' he retorted and went straight into his kitchen just to have something to fill his little tummy. 'Gosh!....Nothing is here,' he muttered after checking out his food storage. 'I shouldn't have consumed that much this morning,' he retorted with lots of regrets. 'What do I do now? Will I have to sleep with an empty stomach?' he asked himself. At the moment he is confused, due to what had happened to him earlier. He is destabilized.While he is still trying to weigh his options, his tummy starts rumbling like a pig rustling its sound.'I am damn hungry. I need to eat som
According to Joe's vision, one of the men asked him to come, instead of him being scolded, he was worshiped.'Is this how this vision will come to fulfillment?' he asked himself. But still, he is scared, 'what if it's the other way round? Gosh! I would be in soup,' he panicked. Still, he had to heed to their call. The hefty man's face was fierce and scary like that of a lion.The more Joe walked up to them the faster his heart beat. He had to control himself so that the vibration of fear wouldn't be seen all over him.He exhaled and inhaled gently to calm himself. Now, it's like Joe has just reached another height.Their looks didn't seem to intimidate him anymore, he walked towards them with courage.When he was at a very close range, the two hefty men bowed themselves to the ground.Joe was shocked, 'why would they bow themselves to me? Have they met me before? Or do I have an identity I don't know?' he retorted. The question in his mind continued to pile, just like a plain land ge
Joe couldn't believe what he just saw, 'if I am a seer, does that mean I just saw my future?' he retorted with fear rustling down his spine.Now that Joe has discovered who he is, his joy was short-lived with immediate effect, 'i am going to be broke soon,' he retorted. He glared at his room for a while thinking of how pathetic this world could be. He brings out his phone gently to look at his balance, 'ten million dollars,' he retorted with a sad gaze.He knew the ten million dollars would soon be gone. Everything continued looking like a dream to him, but unfortunately that was his reality.'How pathetic could this world be?' Joe's memory flashed to the early hours of the day. He remembered how happy he was earlier with the hope of being a millionaire forever.Joe remembered what happened few minutes back, he couldn't just believe how his eye vibrated, 'so this is what seers go through,' he retorted sadly. He remembered the flashes he saw, 'it is all over now,' he retorted with an
Joe's eye widened with shock. He couldn't just resonate everything at once. His head spanned through everything he had seen earlier.He spanked his head hoping he would snap out of it all, but he couldn't. 'Why am I a seer? Why!' he muttered severally.'Joe… calm down,' he retorted and sighed heavily, calming his nerves. As soon as his nerves were calmed, Joe remembered what he saw just now.'I musn't stand by and let this happen,' Joe retorted out of the love he still had for Emily even after what she did to him that day.After he had said that, it was as if Joe just got his senses back, 'what has come over me? Why would I be this concerned about her. Let her die if she has to, anyways she is not worth my pity,' he retorted. Joe couldn't forget what she did to him that day, he felt embarrassed and humiliated.Joe made up his mind not to interfere. He laid on his bed to sleep, but sleep wouldn't come.All that was on his mind is Emily, he couldn't stand not helping her out, anyways

"I love it here, Luther."He looked at me and smiled. Staring right into my face he said, "I know you would love it here… that's why I brought you here in the first place."I couldn't hold that excitement that was within me. "You think you know my taste?" I had to ask, because I don't how he come to know this much about it.With smiles on his face, "common…. You know I have my eyes all over you," Luther quickly points it out to me so that it would be clear.I scoff gently, "don't let too many ideas get into your skull… you know I have a boyfriend…." I had to remind him.My eyes was fixed on him after I mentioned that. He felt disgusted and tired of me."Tell me, Emily…. Who on earth dates poverty?" His lips opened up gently when he rolled those words down his tongue.'Not again!' I s

Narrator's POV Somewhere Secret, Alpine CoveWhen the Captain had burst in and heard the alarms, he'd expected to see armed guards waiting, but everyone was in a frantic rush to escape from the building. Someone, or something landed from above, hitting him with great force. It was Harver. A Mito infested Harver. He tried to move, but he couldn't. Harver had psychically rooted him to the spot. Harver rushed at him, but fortunately Joe came to his rescue, jumping in. They struggled, the Mitos coming from Harver's body and entangling Joe. Joe's Demon Essence charged up, burning the Mitos off. Joe kicked Harver from him, but before Joe could blink, Harver was back on him again. He pushed Joe to the floor, the Mito trying to enter Joe's mouth. He struggled. "Do something! ", he yelled to the Captain. The Captain tried to move, but he was still stuck to the spot. Marie forcefully peeled Harver away from Joe. "Harver, I know you're in there somewhere ", she begged. Harver's Mitos c
Narrator's povFlashbackHarver was escaping. He'd discovered a secret that changed everything about his mission.. The Book of Shadows was not the key to stopping the demons. It was the key to control them. King Trafford desired to have these demons to himself. His armies chased after Harver for all they were worth, but he didn't bugde. All of a sudden, his horse stopped, throwing him over. He landed in the snow, wondering why his horse was running away and leaving him on the cold floor. He could smell them. Mitos. He started to run back, towards the army. The Mitos infested humans chased after him. They crashed into the incoming army, hoarding them. Harver realized he was going to be stuck between the devil and the Red Sea if he didn't find a way out. He ran into General Lothbrok. "You bastard!. You dared to betray the king", he said, jumping off his horse. "He's the one who betrayed us. He's planning on controlling the Mitos for his own benefit. He doesn't care about you".
Narrator's POV A few years ago, Flashback "The Book of Shadows is what I need to restore me rule over this dimension". "What is this book anyway? ""The Shadow Mythos. Whoever has this book in his possession can conquer the world. The Shadows empowers, sustains and makes everyone bow". Harver didn't understand a word. "The Lioness sent me on a secret mission to help you find a book that might be a myth". "Its not a myth. My grandfather once willed the book". "What happened to him afterwards? ""He ran mad". "Oh". "But that is because he held the book for his personal gain. I wish to will it to bring back the rain". "Rain? ""That gods has decided to punish us. They released terrible demons on us and withheld our rain. I have lost more than half of my people, and the people who used to look at me with so much love and respect scorn at the mention of my name". He was dejected. "Demons? What do you mean? "He raised his hands in the air. Two men came out from behind trees.
Narrator's POV A few years ago, FlashbackA young Harver Morvacain trudged on, his carriage waiting for him. He was not exactly happy about going on a secret mission. He'd just confessed his feelings to Marie a week prior, and Mina's birthday was in a few days.He resolved to finish the mission in two days and return. But he was in shock when he got to Trafford. It was a dimension stuck in the past. No cars, televisions or roads. He made his way to the palace, angry that his carriage had shown up two hours later than usual. He noticed that the streets were empty. He entered the king's quarters, bowing as he came in presence of the king. "Harver Morvacain. I've been expecting you". "King Trafford... ". "Urgency, please. The Lioness claim you're the man for the job. I need your help in retrieving a book". "Book? ""The Book of Shadows. Lies beyond the mountains, for anyone daring enough to embark on a journey that kills most men". "Ok... ". "We leave at dawn". And that w
Narrator's POV Somewhere Secret, Alpine CoveJoe hid behind some bushes. He couldn't do this. Damn. Wasn't he the one who said anything was possible? But the Mitos had tortured him. Messed with his mind beyond reason. He stood up from his hiding place, then hid back immediately. Harver Morvacain was there. He needed to get to Emily. Before he knew it, a younger version of Harver Morvacain stood in front in him. There was nowhere to run to. "Who are you? ", Harver asked. "I'm Joe.

Could you help me find my way back? "Joe's senses picked up Mitos. They we're watching the two of them converse, but they were keeping their distance. They were scared of the younger Harver.Joe had an idea. "I think I can". They walked down the hallway of students. "All you have to do is to pretend like you know me".

Stanning's PovThe City BankStanning crept past the gate and into the bank's premises. The guards were all dead. I checked the bullets in my gun again, for like the fifth time. I was nervous. I'd run into the Skin Croc Gang a lot of times in the past and come out unharmed , but this time it was different. I was a demon. It'd been ten years. What could have happened? A lot. I'd changed too. I was no longer a crybaby, and I didn't care about what I looked like. All I wanted was some peace. I saw my mother every single night in my sleep. I put her hand into a pouch, bringing out finely grounded dust. I poured it in a straight line round the outside of the bank building , forming a circle. I was creating a magical boundary that'd keep Luther in the building. I looked at my teammates. There was no going back.Norman and Donna put on their masks. "Let's do this ", I said. Norman kicked the door open. "It's the police!. Freeze!", he screamed shooting all the bullets in his assa
