2021-10-31 00:49:23I was fighting with all I've got on this mysterious battle field. I was fighting with monsters without faces. It was hard but I fought with all I've got. There was no armor, no shield, no peculiar weapon, just one sword—likewise the other monsters. It was like a sword fight and it all looked like I was winning despite being outnumbered. But suddenly, I collapsed to the ground, hot blood gushed out of my heart. I should have died but that world cleared away quickly and I appeared in another. An open field—empty and sandy. I was running, then I fell into a pit. I got enveloped in a metal web, like a chain. I struggled to get out of the chain but it was just too strong and tight. I saw faces above the pit. They jeered at me as they drew me out of the pit. I helplessly watched them roll away the stone at the lake of fire ready to throw me into. I looked around, the people around were strangers—Emiliar, Alistair, Julian, no one was there to help.

The first person I saw when I got to the castle was Raleigh. He's probably the last person I needed to see after the taunt he pulled the last time. It's not my fault though, I heard a knock on my door and checked it.“Milady” he bowed. “ May I?”I remembered that night— same 'May l?' what does he want this time?“ What do you want?”“ I came to apologize...” he trailed off. “for that night.”“ Never mind forget that... it's okay” I was about to slam the door on his face when he stopped me.“ You're not angry huh?” I nodded. “ then we can have breakfast together?”“ sure, I'll join you in a sec.”He hesitated. “ no ... here. The maid will serve is the meal here. I've asked her to.”What again?!“ Fine, come in.” I opened the door to allow him in. Moments later, a maid walked in a

A wave of silence swept through the room. It all looked like the time stopped for a moment. I was frozen beneath his hold and we were both thinking. Well, I was just being realistic and I should be commended for still keeping a straight face. I was having mixed feelings—wanted to cry, scream, stay, hold, touch, do something dirty. I have my own fantasies and it's taking a lot from me to control it.He was about to talk when we heard a knock on the door. I eased myself away and went to answer it, the king's messenger at the door bowed.“ Milady, the king summons you.”“ Okay I'll be there in a sec.” I retied my hair and wiped off a lingering tear from my eye. I picked up my coat from its stand and addressed Julian.“ I'm going out. Remember to lock the door when you're ready to leave.” He just nodded. His expression made me feel guilty— like I've never seen him this broken before.When I got to the Kin

“ What did he say?” he asked again.I hissed.“ Asked me to find the girl and the key or die.” I qouted him in verbatim. “ says death like he can afford it.”“ You know he can.” Julian chuckled. “ You don't need to find them. There will be war anyways. Let's just start preparing for it.”I thought for a while.“ you'll prepare the soldiers then. Though I'll try my best but I won't be around for a while and you've got to help me.”He arched a brow. “ where are you going this time? And why are you putting me out of your plans.”I sighed. “ first, I'm not putting you out of my plans. C'mon, I'm just following my instincts. I'm seeing things sort of. I need to find some people. Just three to four days. I'll find them.”“ three to four days?! What excuse would I give on your behalf?!”“Dont

A excruciating pain hit my forehead as I rolled back and forth on my bed. I've been like this all night, dreams of faces hunt my sleep. The room felt more stuffy and incubating than it'd ever been before and I had to give up on sleep. I washed my face, put on my coat and walked out. At least to get a little bit of fresh air since my room have been invaded by some beings threatening to take my peac. I took a seat at the garden, the moolight being the only source of light for me to see. Cold breeze slammed on my face. Just when I was starting to feel my headache disappear, someone joined me on my seat. I was shocked at first because I never noticed someone was coming but the person—it was easy to discern who it was. I knew it but uis smell, it was Julian. He wrapped his hands around my houlder and rested on it. My headache literally melted away.“ What are you doing out here thi

We rode quietly on our horses, each attached to a four-wheeler wagon. Both of us were lost in our own thoughts. We have four days ahead of us, four days of unpredictable fate. I'm going all the way out of this territory (probably) to find some people that taunt me in my dreams, it's a typical delusional step to take I must say. But that's the only thing my head tells me—to find them. We headed towards the sacred house first. I'd like to see my sister first before going further into this ridiculous journey.At the sacred house, I met them training. The royal living room had been rearranged amusingly and the sight of the two sparring partners caused flusters in my stomach. They are stopped as soon as they noticed I was there. Alistair had a grin on her face and Emiliar, she caressed the cut on her arm painfully.“ You always end up hurting yourself Emiliar. ” I attacked.“You shut up! ” She spat, dropped her hurt arm and dragged me in

"She said I've met my mother before." Emiliar finally broke the silence that has enveloped us ever since Alistair left our midst. "But I don't think I have..."" Forget it." I winced. "Forget whatever my sister said. You are thinking too much, that won't help. All these things will reveal themselves later." I was speaking from experience. I dragged her off her seat."let's go check what they're doing out there."We hid behind the door. They were both talking. Alistair had her usual smile while he, his usual grin. She was wear some things on him. Alistair always had jewels to give. I was killing myself deep inside as I watched the both of them. Guilts? Yes. I've made a grave mistake by falling in love with a demon. I might end up just like my parents." Did you tell her about Joel and I?"I asked Emiliar who was rather lost in her own thoughts."Huh...you said?"She asked."Didn't I ask you to forget?""You know it's not that easy..."She hissed.

"Deal?"Roger asked."The men would have to fight fist then."Alistair replied.Julian stepped out, Raleigh also. To Julian, the fight was for a different cause. Raleigh had tried to poison him the night before, he hadn't exposed him because he knew deep down that it would be nicer if kept it for another day. The day came rather too quickly. Raleigh also was eager, with Julian out of the way, his plan would go out just well and he'll have the whole demonic territory to himself, probably the whole world."I've always waited for this day"Raleigh muttered, am evil grin on his face."Then go on." Julian's expression was rather bland.The two charged at each other. Julian held his lance to a perfect aim while dodging Raleigh's spear. I never expected the fight to be so short and easy. The spear caught Raleigh right in his chest, below his heart though. That could not make him die but at it he got weak. Julian walked over his body and brought his spear down to his heart. Bloo

"You will rot in hell!"He yelled and turned to leave. Alistair stopped him."Who deserves to rot in hell Roger?"She spoke into the conch. "You have just one day to make a choice. It's either you come down here to surrender to us or we break into your walls."Roger laughed, sounded like it rooted from some bottled forces in his chest. "You that kid! Let's see who lasts one day."He walked away.I faced Alistair. She just made the wrong decision. Giving Roger even a second can change the way things are going."You know Roger would never surrender to us.""I don't intend to keep him either"Alistair said. "Even if he surrenders, I won't let that devil live, never. It's better to catch the devil unawares. We are going in now."I smiled. Alistair's smart. I guess you have to be a demon to fight a demon. I'm proud of her."So, how do we get in?"I asked. "The soldiers can't climb. They won't be caught unawares then."Alistair nudged me by my side. "You

"Next, little bit of rain."Alistair said on getting towards the castle, then the rain began. This time, chilly waters dropped.We saw that the walls have been shut tightly with everything Roger possessed. It's the first time in Roger's history, he got suddenly scared of war. It isn't a war anymore or is it?"We're not burning down the castle. Let's go back."I only followed her command. We turned back, going back to our comrades. Looking over the wretch we've created, I could not help but feel pity. I, Katrienair, that weird kid in school, had a part in these. It's unimaginable. I've really grown up and things have really changed. I remembered Arkishair and muttered a little prayer for her. Alistair noticed, her next words proved it."She'll be proud of you.""And you too."Alistair shook her head. "I don't think she would remember."We got to the spot the white coven's army stood, they was massive celebration in the air. They were rejoicing because our

The number of Roger's troop seemed limitless and no matter how many we killed, it seemed futile. For every hundred that was killed, two hundred appeared. All the while the horizon continued to flood with them, row after row, division after division, crammed up like a million worker ants. They were able to stop the fire, they pushed off the flaming soldiers away an took up new positions. The death of several thousands of their men didn't even put a dent on their forces.Yet at our side, every death made an impact, though we didn't have many. That kept my hope alive. We were already far away from the hill where the war started. Our army was still very much in the spirit. I was proud, they had sustained injuries but that didn't stop them. The key was just the best. It was killing four men at a time. I swinged it around while moving and ducking at the same time. At the corner of my eye, I heard a scream. I had less time to linger on that sight because I was being attacked from ever

I stood on the top of one of the hills of the northern province of the demons territory, my comrades by my side.The demons' soldiers were already on the horizon. We planned to go meet them at the castle but the sudden change of event didn't matter anyway. All around, men were busy preparing their weapons. Archers took positions, thousands of them, arrows and bows also ready. If they want it on this hill, so be it. Thousands of more men took positions with Spears, young legion members with slings. Thousands of men beneath the hill had swords and Shields and every weapon imaginable. Israel was giving commands, with Alistair, looking stronger by my side. I felt optimistic. This is the war I've lived for. With the Key wounded in my hands, I already knew what the results of the war would be. It would be a hard one though.I looked again over the horizon and reminded myself of what was coming. The demons has never been defeated on any battle. I forced myself to believe that this ti

There was a feast at the castle. The usual kind of feast Roger has whenever a big war is coming. Julian was in his chamber with kabal, teaching him the things he needed to know, when a guard informed him about the feast and that the king asks that he must be there. Kabal had mix feelings about it but he could not stop his master from attending the feast. Julian instructed him to turn off the lights and go to bed but Kabal could not. He felt something was off. Maybe something really was off. He left the chamber, though late, he had lost sight of Julian. He walked round the castle, searching for the exact place the feast was holding but didn't find it. It's a private feast so it wasn't taken at the assembly hall. Frustrated, he retraced his steps back to the chamber.He was stopped by whisperings from a room, the royal kitchen. His curiosity led on and he decided to have a peek through the half closed window.He saw Raleigh conversing with the head nurse. He had to strain hi

Sylvia curtsied on seeing Israel walk into her apartment. She had stayed in, brooding since their last talk."Sylvia, how are you doing?"Isreal took a seat on the couch."I'm okay Milord."She answered."You told the head of maids you weren't."Israel haf asked of her from the head maid since he didn't see her thought-out his preparations for Karen and her company.Sylvia muttered an apology."Have you remembered?"He asked. Sylvia gave a solemn nod."Then I have no choice" Israel said. "We have a big war tomorrow. The chosen one and her comrades have arrived. You need your memory because you would be at war tomorrow and you need to remember your fighting skill at least. I can't leave you here in he castle. It's not safe.

I decided to go check up on Alistair. Ethan was exiting the room when I walked in. I saw Alistair on her bed, head buried in her pillow. I got curious. What happened here?"Alistair." I joined her. "Hei, it's me."I removed the pillow from her head. I saw her relax. She opened a drawer and gave me a photoframe. I was stunned. There was a couple in it. They looked very young and beautiful. The young woman had long curly golden hair, her green eyes stood out in the picture. The young man was like the most handsome being I've ever seen, I had to remind myself it's just a picture. He had flashy blue eyes and perfect black hair."Our parents. You never met them but..."I was so shocked on hearing this that for a moment I doubted my ears."What did you say?""That's mom and dad. You know them now."She yawned."Oh my...they are stunning. Ah..."I held it to my heart, fantasizing about them feeling my heart beat."I'll find them. I will.""Is there anyt

" Is that Alistair, the first princess of the white coven." Israel shrieked on seeing us. Even his guards, wore a surprised look. I took a glance at Alistair. Well, her expression was bland but I could tell she wasn't enjoying the publicity.Isreal walked up to us as we dismounted from our horse. He bowed to Alistair. She only nodded."Oh my goodness Milady, we all thought you were dead.""I am."Alistair finally spoke. "I mean, for now. You and your guards should keep this as a secret for now. I'm not ready to reveal myself to the public, okay?""Okay, Milady"Wow, Alistair's perfect!*We walked along the aisle, Israel leading the way. He looked less frigid than he was the last time. He was happy, though when he asked for the chosen one, I said I had no idea. He was surprised I could lift the key, I guess that shut him up. He said he had prepared a table for us but we insisted we needed to rest. It's no good time for eating, is it?He
