Lucas became enraged. His eyes glowed blue. His fangs and claws popped out. He started charging toward the Cyclux as well but unfortunately for him, the Cyclux grabbed him with his four arms, squeezing him so hard. A blast of white glowing light came out from Lucas’ body. The light shone directly at the Cyclux’s eye. In defense, the Cyclux tossed Lucas to the ground and at the same time fell to his feet as it became impossible for him to see. The blindness lasted but a few seconds. The Cyclux when he regained his sight cast his gaze on Lucas. “Impossible,” he said pulling himself up to his feet. As he slowly draws closer to Lucas, Ann and Bonnie took a defense position as they both conjured a blue glittering light that flashes lightning. They were ready to strike the Cyclux with a blast known as the ‘clan blast.’ The clan blast is mostly used by the white clan witches. They use it as a defensive power to fight off their enemies rathe
Luxo took Lucas, Bonnie, and Ann to a mysterious-looking castle. Mist covered the walls of the castle. However, Lucas can see the top edge of the walls and can tell the walls are about 40 feet tall. They were still standing outside the walls when suddenly the main gate of the castle lifted on its own. It was a gigantic iron gate with designs of three-headed dragons. “You mean my half-sister stays here?” Lucas glances at Luxo. He has asked Luxo to prove what he said earlier by taking them to see his half-sister. If what Luxo says is true, then they might be a family reunion. He believes he can talk his half-sister into telling them where to find the mystic orb. “She stays with her father, the Grand Wizard of Ouxs,” Luxo answered. From the look on his face, he was certain of everything he has said. However, Ann still has her doubt. She believes Luxo is luring them into a trap. She slowly moved to Bonnie and whispered to her. “We can’t trust him.” “I know but we have no ch
Lucas quickly deflected the lightning. He swirled to know where the lighting blast came from. His gaze was quickly drawn to a pale-looking man dressed in a black flowing robe. He has a bald head and his eyes were red-looking. His mustache was white and was about 10inches. Luxo quickly ran towards Lucas for safety. “Master!” he called out. “Who is he?” Ann enquired with curiosity. “That’s the Grand Wizard of Ouxs." The pale-looking man has been causing havoc in the Unknown Land. Almost all creatures in the Unknown Land are terrified when they see him. Lucas recognizes the one he saw hunting his kind with his late mother. Seeing him again in person made him believe his mother was blind bedding the Grand Wizard of Ouxs. He’s not a nice-looking man and no woman should have anything to do with him or even desires him. After he helped Mira to her feet, he cast a scornful gaze at Lucas and his companions. “You dare come to my abode after destroying my Ouxs!”
BONNIE’S MAGICAL STORE Lucas, Bonnie, and Ann made a rough landing inside Bonnie’s magical store. Ann wasn’t happy they left the Unknown Land without the mystic orb. They can’t return home empty-handed. She frowns her face and walks away without saying a word to Bonnie or Lucas. “Why is she upset?” Lucas asked with curiosity. “We returned without the mystic orb.” What Bonnie did was to save Lucas. If Lucas was able to poke around Mira’s memories to see how his very kind was killed with the mystic orb, then it’s not safe for him to be around the magic object that can obliterate him. Ann understands this but at this time she cared less about Lucas. She just wants all this to be over with the mystic orb in their possession. “Oh no, my dad must be so worried about my disappearance for days now. I must get home.” “That’s right!” said Bonnie. Her voice was filled with sadness. She doesn’t want to see Lucas leave. She wants to finish what they started back at the
Jane was left in the dark with no idea of where Lucas had gone to. Her parents have gone to bed and she was left alone sitting on Lucas’ bed wondering where he is. The night was chilly. The chilly night howled through the open window. She quickly got up to shut the window. Her best thought was that Lucas might have gone out through the window. She can’t still place her mind where he might be. She became worried. At first, she thought he might have gone back to the strange land he told her about a while ago. Her main concern was the safety of Lucas. A lot has been going on in New Orleans and she doesn’t want him to fall victim to that. She thought of the best way to help. She finally made up her mind to call Detective White. “Hello Mr. White, Lucas is missing,” she said over the phone. Detective White already had a rough day. His encounter in the woods has left him wondering. He has spent all day in the station going through some case files. It’s now clear to
Detective White was lost that he couldn’t help. He reluctantly drove off without bothering to send Jane away. He didn’t want to miss the dispatch call. The last dispatched call was described as a ‘wild beast in human form maiming innocent citizens.’ He didn’t want to miss out. At least if what the dispatch call said is true, he will not have difficulties in proving to his department that werewolves are in existence. They finally came to a stop at Bailey Avenue. Detective White pulled over beside the police barricade. He turns off his ignition. With a serious look on his face, he said to Jane: “You stay in the car!”“I’m coming!”“No, you are not! Don’t you get it, do you? This is police official business!” Detective White walks out of the car and slams shut the door leaving Jane inside the car. He makes his way to the lead detective who first arrives at the scene. He flashed his badge to identify himself. “Detective White,” he said.“Detective Carter.” They both
It was an old woman. She was lying helpless in the restroom. Detective White couldn’t help but wonder what the old woman was doing here? “Ma’am, are you alright? This is Detective White!” His Akdal Ghost TR01 was held firmly between his sweaty fingers. The light was still flickering that he could barely see. He was bold enough to enter the dark restroom to check on the old woman. “Is anyone here with you?” “Talk to me, ma’am!” Obviously, Detective White arrived late. His gaze was drawn to the hole in the old woman’s left chest with her heart gone. “Fuck!” he exclaimed. He didn’t know what to do but was certain that the suspect is still in the building. He steeled his failing nerves and breathed out a puff of cold air and sprang back to his feet and continued with his search. He noticed a weird movement behind him. He quickly flicked around steadying his Akdal Ghost TR01 and ready to pull the trigger but there was no one. As he turned around to c
The multiple gunshots continued as Detective White passed through the alley. He instinctively ducked behind a dumpster taking cover. From the dumpster, he peeped to see who his colleagues were shooting at. A bloodcurdling scream escaped from the shadowy alley behind him before he could get a response from his team after he radioed demanding to know what was happening. His heart raced inside him as beads of cold sweat streamed down his smooth cheeks. With his years of experience as a cop, he has never experienced such gunplay before. He needed to know who it was that screamed. He caught a glimpse of a corpse of a young lady wrapped in red clothes. Only her head and neck were exposed after being wrapped. At this time, he was lost and couldn’t make any sense of the situation at hand. He has seen an old woman dead with her heart gone. Now another corpse of a young lady amid multiple gunshots. Blood was coming out from her neck. From the look of thi
“All rise!” the registrar echoed to the hearing of the people. As the judge takes his seat. The registrar ordered the court to sit as he calls out the cases. “The City of New Orleans vs. Lucas White.” The judge requests the lawyer of the plaintiff to identify himself. The plaintiff opens his case first. He has witnesses ready to testify against the defendant. What congressman Styles keep telling the press was that Lucas came for retribution and have succeeded in killing his son. He told the press it was wrong for Lucas to take laws into his hands. He has vowed with the blood of his son that Lucas will never escape the wrath of the law for killing his defenseless son, Jack. The evidence presented by the plaintiff's lawyer points to Lucas being the killer. The jury has reached their verdict and now the judge is about to pass the judgment. Lucas was terrified of what his fate would be in the prison away from his family and friends.
CONGRESSMAN STYLES MANSION “Let him go!” Lucas yelled. Jack was suspended in the air. He pleads for his life but Ann showed no mercy. She glanced at Lucas with hate in her eyes. “You will never find my former mistress’ corpse.” Ann’s words stroke him. “So it was you?” “I had help,” Ann giggled. “Let him go and we can talk about this,” Lucas pleaded. “Whatever anger you have should be channeled to me. He has nothing to do with it.” “You are right,” Ann flashed a fake smile that can’t get to Lucas. “He has been a pain in your ass and now I want to help you delete him.” With a flick of her wrist, Ann released Jack and let him slump to the ground. Lucas moved at an accelerated speed to help Jack but Ann flings him away. She appeared behind Lucas and stabbed him with a similar dagger he stabbed Lucas with. “Die asshole,” she whispered into his ear. “No!” Lucas roared. It’s too late fo
SIX MONTHS LATER Lucas walks into the cemetery to spend time on Bonnie’s grave. Things seem to be back to normal in his city. He has achieved getting the vampires, the witches, the werewolves, Banshees, gypsies, and the hunters to agree on a truce. The supernatural community will now live in harmony with the humans without any party looking over their shoulders. As he draws closer, he caught a glimpse of sand by the grave. Something isn’t right. He quickly made his way toward the sand that was close to Bonnie’s tombstone only to realize that her grave has been dug.When his mother returned from the ancestors’ world with the rest of the witches, she came back with Bonnie’s corpse. After consecrating it, they buried her close to her mother.Lucas quickly jumps into the grave as he reaches for the coffin. He opened the coffin. To his greatest shock, the coffin is empty. “Impossible!” he cried out. Is this real? No, it can’t be real. ‘There’s no way she could be alive,’ he thought to
DOWNTOWN There’s been an attack in the bar close to the witches’ quarters. The people of New Orleans have been hearing of mysterious killings by a wild cat. Some say the witches are behind the killings. The witches assumed the wild cat bite happens to be a bite mark from vampires. They do not want to get into a fight with the vampires especially now Lucas is speaking of a truce. They quickly made their way out of the bar leaving the barman, John, and Scott alone.Customers at the bar are running helter-skelter. The customers were still in shock. They have never seen such an attack or someone who vanishes out of thin air or morphs into a cat. ‘This is sorcery!” they screamed running out from the bar.The cat hops and stood at the bar counter making a constant purring sound. In the bar was one of Zuka’s vampires who has gone to get a witch to help Zuka out of his deep slumber. When he heard screams coming from the bar, he diverted and started heading toward the bar.
“What are you doing?” Jane stared with a confused look. This isn’t saving. Pete’s actions got her puzzled. “A few tricks I learned from Jones,” Pete replied without looking up. His hand was still buried in Lucas’ chest. He isn’t pulling it out – instead, he held Lucas firmly in his arm. He glanced at Jane. There was a concerned look on her face. The look one gives when betrayed. “Relax,” he said. “I’m just trying to keep his heartbeat.” “By burring your claws into his chest?” Jane cast a wide-eyed gaze. At this moment, she doesn’t know whose side Pete is on. “I’m just massaging his heart,” Pete spoke up in his defense. He knew that look on Jane’s face. He focuses on his alpha and continued caressing his heart. It’s a way of reviving a werewolf if you noticed his heartbeat slowing down. By just massaging the heart, the heart will get back popping blood as it ought. Jones used this trick to revive
“Lucas, wake up!” a loud voice called out. The voice came growing louder and closer in Lucas’ ear. He quickly sat up and started gazing around. Nothing seems familiar. There was a slow-moving creek close by. It’s quite different from the bayou at Hilltop. As he was about to get to his feet, the voice came again, “You’re not supposed to be here.” He flicked around. He recognizes the voice. It was Bonnie speaking. There she is standing and staring down at him next to a tree. Lucas quickly sprang up to his feet and wanted to make a run for it. Bonnie disappeared and reappeared before him. “You’re not supposed to be here!” she yelled. “You don’t belong here.” “Please don’t hurt me!” Lucas cried out. He was terrified like a scared little child. “I will not hurt you but you need to leave—you don’t belong here!” she disappeared into thin air. Lucas stared around puzzled in fear. His legs shake rapidly. H
PRINCIPAL MYLES APARTMENT A full-fisted knock interrupted the quiet noon of Alicia. She’s still mourning her dad and has not resumed school. Principal Walter has assured her she could get all the class updates in their class group and has given her as much time as she needed to get over the death of her father. She was the only one at home. Her mother has resumed work and so is Rosita. Maureen on the other hand has been busy with her team trying to catch Ann. She told them how Ann killed Pablo and cut her ankle. There were pleased to hear that the same Lucas they wanted to gun down healed her. The rumor of Lucas seeking a truce has gone viral and the Five Fingers have agreed to be part of it. They see it as a good way for all creatures to live in harmony without hurting or hurting each other. It was a welcome idea. But for Ann, they have never stopped looking for her. Alicia answered the door. It was Jane. They were greeted with a warm hug.
The pale-looking man’s hand is mangled and his skin peels away like a banana. They are replaced with the large, hairy, and dangerous clawed hands of a beastly creature. “Not again!” Captain White cried out. He has witnessed the furious nature of werewolves in the woods but got his ass saved by his wife. Too bad Kora isn’t here to save him. She’s still kicking some asses in the ancestors’ world. Is either he fights or gets maimed. The pendant given to him by Eva to protect him from werewolves has lost its power since she died. When the ancestors killed her, they destroyed every spell she created, and all magical objects she made died with her. The pale-looking man’s eyes are now stripped of all humanity and replaced with the eyes of a hunter beast. His entire body starts molding itself into its new werewolf shape. His bones began to snap and pop through the skin and back into place. As the bones began to reposition, his skin moved
Captain White was suspended in the air by an unseen force. The unseen force had him on his throat and he gasped for air desperately. Lucas moved at an accelerated speed toward his father. He moved faster than the eyes could see. Whatever that is suspending his father in the air won’t let him be if he didn’t act. On reaching his father, he stretched his hand to take hold of his father’s hand. He was more than 19ft above the ground level. There’s no way Lucas could get to him. He propels himself into the air and allowed himself to be pulled into flight. It was too late for him to get to his faster – the invisible force was acting ahead of him. His father vanished into thin air. Lucas crashed and landed on a tombstone. His face became distorted with rage. He sprang back to his feet and began scanning around with his eyes desperately. “Show yourself and fight me!” he roared. A weird unseen force flings Lucas th
