Death of Vampires (Book #2 of BTCO) Becoming the fires
Kyra stepped outside of the house and she heard the angry yells of the people who didn’t want her in their Town anymore. They didn’t even spare her a moment as they now started throwing stones at her and some even threatened her with the torches they now held in their hands. As one stone was about to hit her in the face, the boy came in front of her, blocking the stone and protecting her from it.Kyra slowly raised her eyes to look at him and he saw how red her eyes burned.“The one who needs saving is not me,” she said and then stepped aside to now reveal herself again to them and she took few steps forward.Martinez also stood at the front and he seem to be the spokesperson for the people. He said, “You are just like your mother. Caitlin came into this town and we accepted her, only for her to turn on us and turn this once peaceful town into what it was not. Who would have known she was killing our children to survive and who knows if she was also feeding you from it? we all thought

Jayde had also moved away from where he was standing and he went to stand at Kyra’s side before looking at the vampires who had come.Kyle stepped forward and he turned around to behold what was left of the town. When he looked at Kyra, there was excitement in his eyes and he said;“Wow, who would have thought that we are both alike. Right! These people must have irritated you a lot that you couldn’t restrain back, but then, you are something else. How did you keep this rage within you for so many years?”“Is she ‘The One’?” one of his men asked and Kyle gave a nod.“That’s right. She is the very one who must be stopped. It should be easy if one of you can go bring her here so we can end this one and for all and return to give our master the good news.”Kyle’s words sounded just right to them and one of them quickly stepped out from behind him. His eyes were fixed on Kyra and he wore a grin as he made his way towards her.Sage deliberated on either to stop the man that was approaching

They flew into the night in silence and they finally crossed through the border, entering into their own world. By the time the sky was starting to get clear, Sage felt his shoulders aching and he needed to rest, but Jayde just kept going and he tried to catch up with him. He noticed that Kyra had not woken up since she became unconscious and he said to Jayde;“Shouldn’t we at least check on her? We can take a little time to rest before continuing on our journey.”“There’s no time,” Jayde said and didn’t even stop. It was only when he felt a movement from Kyra that he slowed down and dived to the ground before setting her down on the grass.“What happened? Is something wrong?” Sage asked him, noticing how he checked Kyra.“She moved,” Jayde answered and took Kyra’s hand.“Why do you think she fell unconscious in the first place?”“Didn’t you see it?” Jayde answered with a question, somehow uninterested in having a conversation. “She was consumed by her own rage and it must have draine

Because Jayde had carried Kyra when they left Cinderville, Sage agreed to carry her on his back this time. He was surprised to know that Kyra could not fly like them, but could only leap up to the air, without wings. That means she couldn’t travel in the air. She can only walk, but that would take hours and even, days.Kyra got on his back and they set off to Pollypel.“Jade,” Kyra called and Jayde turned his head to look at her. He and Sage are flying side by side and Kyra could see the vast sea spread out below them. “Tell me about Pollypel,” she said.Jayde knew there was a lot to say about Pollypel, but he only responded with, “Pollypel is an island, but Aiden found it and took us all in.”“Us?” Kyra asked with a little pull of brows. “What is your people like?”“We are also vampires, but we learn to control ourselves. We are what the humans would call misfits.”“Misfits?”“Yes. It means we are not accepted in other places. We are like oddballs. You’ll see for yourself.”After say

As they ascended the stairs, twisting and turning again and again in a spiral, they finally came to another long corridor and as they walked, Kyra lowered her eyes to look down at the people below, in the courtyard. They looked small and it dawned on her that they are at the top of the castle.Samantha pushed the door at the front open and they walked inside. "This will be your room," she said to her.Kyra looked around the room and she went to stand at the middle, admiring everything. There was the wardrobe for clothes and she could see the set of clothes that peeped out from it as it wasn't closed. Then the bed, made of stone, or was it rock, positioned at the side of the wall. As she took in the sight of it all, she started to realize that she hasn't really had a room of her own. When she was still with her mother, they both shared that tiny space together and she never complained. When she was with Padma, she also didn't get to have a room. Although, Padma had showed her to a roo

Sage already moved away from the corner and walked a little to the front as he feared what Kyra might do this time. She already shed enough blood and the people of Pollypel hasn't done anything for her to go up against them and he saw that the people were about to attack, but then, seeing how Aiden commanded them with just a raise of his hand and how they all returned back in line, it amazed him how he seem to have everything under his control.It was just like Donovan had said. It was no wonder he was willing to accept the prophecy about the Chosen One, even though it was something that would change the rest of their lives.Kyra's forehead deepened into a frown as she tried to resonate with what Aiden said."Why did you have me brought here? Have you been watching me? If you have, why didn't you save Padma? Were you waiting to see what I would do?"She brought the sword even closer to his neck but Aiden was unmoved, and it made her question what manner of person he was."I brought yo

Bathilda took a stroll forward and said, “Who knew you would be so excited to see me again? I thought you wanted me gone.”Kyra moved her eyes away from the door and turned to look at her. “Why are you here?” she asked her.“The same reason as you,” Bathilda replied her.“What reason?”Bathilda sighed and said, “To prepare the way for the Chosen One. I am one of the people, like the rest of the misfits, who will stand with you as we prepare for the great day that will change everyone.”“What are you talking about?” Kyra asked, feeling confused.“I know you don’t understand any of this right now, but you will, because soon, you will know. I heard about what you did to Aiden.”Hearing his name again, Kyra had a frown on her face and she said, “I don’t like him.”“You will come to like him, soon enough,” Bathilda said to her, even though Kyra didn’t believe her. “He knew I would come. I have been here for a while now. It didn’t take me long to find this place. Remember I told you I didn’

Gazzeus and Bryon who were at the border, with few others from Lifeblood Coven, all waited for Kyle and the other men that went with him to return. They knew it would not take lots of time, but the more they were there, the more they started to feel that something must have gone wrong. There was debate on going to find them on their own, but Bryon asked who would stay at the border and watched out for anyone who may want to trespass. After much arguments, Gazzeus finally decided to go and look for Kyle himself and that they should stay back, but Bryon pulled him to the side and told him in a low voice;“You know that Kyle could punish you if he sees you. He didn’t pick you when he was picking the others. You were supposed to stay back at Arkadia.”“I know, but I can’t possibly be the one being left out. Kyle is letting all these get into his head but I can’t leave him because of that. He is still my friend, and I have to make sure he is fine,” Gazzeus said to him. “Also, Klaus is out

Death of Vampires (Book #2 of BTCO) Epilogue
Present day…Every morning when it’s not the weekend, the house is always on heat mode. There is the TV playing, footsteps running from one place to another and music blaring out from a stereo in one of the rooms. Noises everywhere.Amber dashed out of the kitchen, pulling off her apron and carrying with her a lunchbox which was already packed. She rushed to the dining table and placed it aside before dishing out food from the pot she brought to the table earlier. Her eyes darted to the TV and she saw the news that was being displayed. It was yet another sad death and the cause unknown.“This doesn’t seem to end,” she muttered to herself and shook her head sadly.Turning her eyes away from the Tv, she moved her eyes towards one of the rooms, the one that belonged to her daughter and she shouted on top of her voice so her daughter would hear;“Renee! Get out here now! You are going to be late for school. Again! And turn off that damn stereo!”“I’m almost done! Give me a minute mom!” Re
Death of Vampires (Book #2 of BTCO) The prophecy fulfilled
Three days after, Aiden and the rest of the people had stayed back at Athens and are making preparations for the sacrifice which Kyra said they should prepare for before passing out on the field after the rift closed up and the black clouds cleared from the sky. Every one of them who accepted the prophecy and the Chosen One all stayed in Athens and prepared for the sacrifice as they all waited for her to wake up. Sage had been by her side during those three days, watching her and trying to understand how she must have felt after she woke up from her deep sleep. Bathilda had explained what happened while he was being held as a prisoner by his own people, but now, there was nothing like that anymore. No one belonged to a coven. They are all One.Kyra slowly opened her eyes and saw a figure standing over her and looking down at her. It was blurry at first and she called softly, “Sage.”“Oh sorry. I sneaked in after he left. Did you finally wake up?”Kyra blinked her eyes again and saw th
Death of Vampires (Book #2 of BTCO) Awakening the darkness
As they all waited for Kyra to say something, Kyle knew his coven all looked up to him now and this could be his chance to prove in front of everyone that he was the one they needed. If he killed the Chosen One now and in front of everyone, he could easily take over Athens and control all the other covens. He would build his own council where they would take orders from him and be brought for punishment if they went against him. This thought brought him an inner excitement and with that, he stepped out from the crowd.All eyes were on him and they all seem to want to know what he wanted to do as none of them was brave enough to step forward. He was even surprised when no one opposed him and it gave him more confidence. His lips twisted in a confident smirk. "So, the death warrior finally shows herself,” he said. “I thought Sapphire killed you. How are you still alive?”Kyra stood calm amid the storm that was slowly brooding inside of her and her hand gripped the ancient sword. “This i
Death of Vampires (Book #2 of BTCO) The wakening call
The guards that were outside the building of Athens, who were guarding the place from any intruders, soon became distracted by a brighter light they saw ahead of them, up in the sky. It looked like a blazing sun and it was heading directly towards them.“I think…the sun is about to fall,” one of them said and the others watched on, until they saw that it was closing in on them. Not having the time to take cover, they cowered and shield their faces with their hands and they expected to feel a burn on their skin, but instead of that, they heard a loud thud that shook the ground beneath them.Meanwhile, in Arkadia, the vampires were busy making plans on how they would attack Polis before the Silver Crest Coven would, and how they would capture the chosen one and kill her once and for all. Meera had brought Kevin to the coven, hoping to use him against Kyra who people speak so highly of and one that should be feared, but she was determined to kill her with her own hands. She vowed to make
Death of Vampires (Book #2 of BTCO) AWAKENED
Kyra slowly opened her eyes and she stared up at the ceiling for a long time. Her white skin was starting to return back to its original color and in a matter of seconds, it regained life once again. She raised her upper body and sat upright, her hands holding either sides of the hard stone where she laid and she buried her head down, her hairs falling over.She knew a lot had changed. The vampires were all back and she was being hunted again by them. Also, the world she knew of had also changed. Even Pollypel was no longer called like that anymore. It is now Polis.The events that happened in the past days suddenly came back to her and she knew she was staked by Sapphire who disguised herself using her shape-shifting technique. It was how she killed Sage in that war and he had thought she was the one.Revisiting the past as if she had really gone back and lived that life all over again felt like she had been out for years. She felt she had died and returned to life, but in a new form
Death of Vampires (Book #2 of BTCO) The light
Sage had just finished killing the last vampire left and he saw Kyra at the front coming towards him. it seems she had managed to kill Kyle and now, they were the only two left. The battle was over, he thought. As Kyra came to him, she embraced him and he embraced her back. Even though this was the end, they were still together, but as he was embracing her, he suddenly felt her push something into him and he let out a gasp before pushing her body away and he looked down at his own chest to see that she had just staked him with a sword. But why? He thought and the looked at her with pain in his eyes. Her eyes held no emotions or remorse. It was as if she had been waiting for this moment to get rid of him, but why would she do that to him, he thought again as his body fell to the ground and his vision became blurry.Kyra got to the scene and she saw someone standing with Sage. That was before she saw his body fall to the ground and she screamed his name;“SAGE!”But Sage didn’t hear her
Death of Vampires (Book #2 of BTCO) The last war
Kyra led her people to war. It was one that would never be forgotten, and one that no one would live to tell…Few hours before the war started, Kyra walked to the mountain and met with Jade. They both sat down there in silence and just staring at the horizon.“It’s going to be soon,” Kyra said to him. “I can feel it.”Jade looked at her, knowing what she meant, and Kyra looked at him and asked;“Is there anything you want to say to me?”Jade pulled the corner of his lips into a smile and said, “I wish you would have asked me before now.” Jade knew even if he said what was on his mind, it was already too late. And he said to her, “I thought you would know.”But Kyra understood what he was saying, and yet, she pretended not to know.They sat there in a long silence and as they watch the night go on, Kyra’s eyes caught something from afar, like a black cloud, heading towards them. she stood up, and so did Jade who knew what it was already, and he looked at her.Kyra went back to the cove
Death of Vampires (Book #2 of BTCO) For those who died unfairly...
Kyra sat on her stone bed, wiping the blood off her sword with a piece of cloth. As she did that, a knock came on her door and when she raised her eyes up, she saw Sage entering, and he shut the door again. He walked towards her with a bowl and a cloth in his hand and he came to stand in front of her.Kyra set down her sword to the side carefully and she looked at him again. She hasn't said a word to him ever since they got back together, even though she knows he has lost his uncle and brother.Sage placed the bowl beside her and took her hand gently without permission. He dipped the cloth inside the water and squeezed and he started to wipe her body with it. After he was done with her hands, he came up to her face and started wiping the dirt and blood off and the water turned dirty."Do you think I'm right with what I'm doing?" She asked him.Sage stopped the movement of his hand and he asked, "Leading us to war?" He then answered, "It's the only thing we can do. Since Aamon is dead,
Death of Vampires (Book #2 of BTCO) Pledge to the Chosen One
Since the day Kyra and Sage returned to Pollypel island, the place has been silent and they didn't return to their normal life. No one trained anymore or bullied anyone. Everyone just kept to themselves, grieving inside and awaiting what was next for their lives.Kyra hasn't smiled or spoken a word since she got back. The only place they could find her was on that cliff where she had lost Samantha. She would sit there for days and no one dared to disturb her.Sage travelled back to Athens to have a funeral for his brother and uncle and that night, Jade took up the courage to go meet Kyra where she was for days.He climbed up the mountain and when he saw her, he stopped and just stared at her. He didn't say a word until later when the sky started to darken."I know you can hear me so I'll just say what I have to say," he said and started, "I know how you feel about losing your friend. I am also in pain but it's nothing compared to yours, I know. Samantha is my sister, but she does mean
