The Fallen Ones: Chapter 21

Chapter 21
Chazona's POV

Sarah and Luna took turns on carrying Josh. Kailon and I decided to investigate on the warehouse while Luna and Sarah waited outside along with the sleeping Josh and nicely tied Nox.

As we enetered, I felt a dark presence. Then suddenly, the door shut behind us without anyone touching it. A dark fog began to manifest in the center of the room.

"You have come." The woman smiled at us with ease. Her haired was tied in braids beside her face, her dark eyes watched us from afar. She wore jeans and a white shirt that seemed to big on her.

"Nike." Kailon and I bowed.

"It seems you have killed the Cyclops." She said, walking towards us.

"You sent the Cyclops?" Kailon asked.

"No. He was hidden here for quite some time."

"Who hid him?" I asked.

Nike merely smiled at us. "You tied my daughter up." She said nonchalantly.

I gulped and stared at Kailon, a feeling of fear began to envelop us. Nobody messes with the pritogenoi, and touching Nike's daughter might envoke her to take us down.

"We apologize. We thought---"

She silenced us with a dimiss of her hand. Then she snapped her fingers and the door opened, and Nox Alysia entered the room with Luna and Sarah (carrying Josh) behind her. "Mother." Nox greeted Nyx.

Nyx smiled down at her daughter of affectionately.

I came here to give you this, she handed me a black box and a small white bag.

"The black box is the entrance to the Underworld, once you opened it, it cannot be used again." She said. "And inside the white back are five pearls that you shall use to return here."

"Thank You, Lady Nyx." I said and Kailon and I bowed.

"But before I leave." She said looking at her daughter, "I want something to be done."

She snapped her fingers and Josh began to move. He started to groan and wake up easily. His golden opened and I saw him stare at Nox with a conflicted look on his face.

"I want my daughter and the son of Hyperion to speak. Let all accounts be settled. I want peace of mind." She said before disappearing into thin air.

Josh was already standing awkwardly in front of Nox. Luna cleared her throat and said, "I think we should stay outside." She pulled Sarah as she went out, though Sarah never lifeted her eyes away from Josh. Kailon and I nodded and we flew out of the warehouse leaving the former lovers that looked like stones in confliction. ℓʋиα ƨιℓvɛя iƨ α wιɛяdgιяl [ bαdɛ iƨ bɛck+jαdɛ ♥]  06:57, May 18, 2011 (UTC)
