All Chapters of Rise of Athena : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

"I am going to need one more person to be used. Now that the evil girl is dead, they are incomplete." Witch had said before sending out a few men to find someone. In less than three hours, the warriors that had been sent out returned with a sickly man. He had been found along the road and was at the point of death. Thinking these warriors had come to save him, it was shocking for him to be brought here. "Why am I here? Why am I here?!" The man cried out wildly. He was thrown on the ground and he stood on his knees, eyes wide and frantic and they fleeted over the other people standing there and watching him. "What is going on?" The man stood up and grabbed one of the abductees. He shook the man wildly but the man only burst into tears. The witch was irritated by this display so she turned and immediately began the rituals. It was almost evening and she needed to be done before the full moon. Her next destination after this sacrifice was Antarti and she neede

From where she sat at the porch of the second storey, Athena saw the trucks that had driven out come back in and immediately, she stood to her feet. Her warriors began to jump out of the trunk and soon, Damien and Daniel were hurrying out of the car and into the palace. In order not to look like she was tense or nervous, Athena maintained her sitting position. Damien had seen her so she knew he was going to come up to meet her and like she had predicted, he did so. "My Lord," Damien began as he came to stand by her side. Daniel stood at the door with hands folded behind him. "Something is wrong." "From the nature of the weather, I am well aware that something is wrong. Why are you all back by this time?" "It seems like the portals weren't all closed. Damien here told me that his Alpha didn't know the strength of the spirits and if there were other portals. We discovered late that there was a portal at the main gates." Athena rose from her seat slowly. "An

Trevor knew he must travel as fast as he could to beat time. So as soon as he was out of the Antarti gates, he began to run with great speed, whizzing past buildings and structures trees as he left raised dust in his wake. He traveled through the darkness and his eyes were his only source of enhanced vision. In less than two hours, he had gotten to his destination. He stopped when he got to the entrance of the forest of desolation, breathing heavily and trying to catch his breath. He had to be careful while entering this forest or he would be eaten up by wraiths and evil spirits. He had no idea where the cave was located but he knew he was going to have to try his luck. He looked around him before proceeding into the forest. It was dark and crickets chirped, followed by the croak of frogs in the nearby streams. Trevor pushed past bushes as he made his way into the deepest parts of the forest. As he moved deeper into the forest, he felt like things weren't as bad

"Did you hear that?" Ciara who had been sleeping on the couch immediately sat up. She had been asleep but tbe piercing cry of a strange creature tore through the air and woke her up. It was Alex who had asked that question and Ciara immediately left the chair she was seated on to check on him. "You're awake," She whispered and also checked Daniel. But the man was in a deep sleep. Turning back her attention to Alex, she asked. "Are you good? How do you feel?" "Peachy." Alex replied. "Though, I wonder if Daniel feels the same way. I was able to tap into his dreams and he's having quite a nightmare. Don't wake him up. His nightmares are a form of visions." "I know." Ciara replied. "What's a Wyvern doing here at this time? They are only present in winter and blood moons." Alex sat up with a bit of difficulty but he was okay. He looked at the narrow tube connected to his arms and then at Ciara who sighed and gently pulled it off. She wiped his broken skin with

"A Wyvern appeared for the first time ages ago. Around 800 AD. It came with a storm and piercing cry and human beings seeing the large creature as a threat, began finding ways to bring it to its death." Everyone who was seated at the empty dining table was listening. It was almost four o'clock and the inhabitants of the palace were awake. The people at the table consisted mostly of men, female shamans and other women of influence. As usual, Athena sat at the head of the table. They all listened as one of the oldest historians spoke. "The first place it appeared was in Northern Europe. The Celtic region. Those were the first people who saw it. A lot of people saw it as the end of the world while the mighty King of Cornwall saw it as something to defeat. They waged war on the Wyvern and the men lost as the Wyvern consumed them all with flames or scattered their battle ground with its large, powerful talons. People died a lot and for years, fighting this Wyvern seemed to be f
