Harmony of Lady Shadow Moon by DhNAi Divine (little red riding hood ebook TXT) 📕

He threw with his hands, throwing the image of a mangled body, tore apart from the impact of a semi-truck.

Aanujah curled up her face treacherously. “She deserved worse. What about this?” Aanu sent a vision harshly back at him. He saw a battered nine-year-old, surrounded by the suburban kids from a county outside Lucas. Saki was the child, she went to the hospital after a near fatal beating and near rape.

Aanu narrowed her eyes. “What about the rest? I didn't just kill Amanda. Unlike my Nana, I. Killed. E'ry. Single. One.” Aanujah's face curled in disgust and her body shuddered. “Never...never did they get punished. They didn't get in any trouble six years down the line. I just took the perfect opportunity to throw Amanda under the bus—I mean semi. She came, met me right near the green belt, silly bitch. She didn't believe somein' like that could happen to her. Specially not by some poor Black chick.”

The two divine entities eyes met. Aanu shook the gaze off to finish telling her story. “I felt it was a sign from god or the devil, but wit' all I know now, maybe it was you. So...I took it and killed that arrogant rich bitch. Then one by one I picked the others off, cutting off dicks and tits. One of 'em I buried alive.”

She laughed, “I don't know where any a that fucked up shit in me came from, but it got the fuck out! I got my own justice. I'on't know how I got away with it, but I did. I spent my life quiet, reserved, never blowin' up, taking shit, smiling and walking away. 'Cause...'cause...I don't even know why!” She threw her hands up. “You know what I do know why, cause I thought it was the right thing to do. But when my friend got beaten almost to death, more than once. I even got jumped...I let go.”

She smiled tightly. “Blew out all the rage I been feeling inside an' when I look back I didn't know where all that anger came from. But now I do.”

“You were dazzling as a child, sunny.” Anubis's tone one of admiration, lust, and love, “But you grew deeper, matured, but so very shadow. A controlled current of chaos. I understand how you feel when living on this corrupted plane for so long. It's easy to lose it. You being the exact opposite of me, you only lost it once. I didn't, I slept in my shit. I won't deny that I need you back with me Aanujah Anput Azaigh.”

Aanujah shook her head, looking away. “Tell me why. Why you cause so much damage?” She turned back to him. “Damage you know you have to account for later ANPU. You know how I felt about you, still do. I would NEVER FORSAKE YOU to this place, but look at the position YOU put yourself in! ALL US! Tell ME WHY!”

Anubis shakes his head, staring up at the sky. “I never forgot a thing, Aanu. In every single incarnation here I remember you, the Council, our world, my fuck-ups. Every sight, every smell, every touch, taste. At first, I ain't care because I thought I could always go back. But when I knew I couldn't, it drove me crazy. I had nothing, but my ability to manipulate.

I gained my powers back through the years. But by that time, I was too far gone. Lost in the pit, so deep that I killed many, took many souls, tryin' to build a ladder out. All I had was the power of fear, I was in control of at least one thing if not my own fate Aanu. I knew it was a chance I would never return, so I transformed into a beast and never looked back. For my damages to my soul and many others I will be cleansed of it and right every wrong. It's time.”

He looks at her, entranced by her fully blown violet eyes, her clothes transformed into her ancient royal sheath, with an even bigger headpiece made of pure crystals. “May I enter your world again Queen? And if you'll have me, together we'll create a new one.”

Their eyes went to the same spot in the sky. The moon. The moon grew bloody red and a blast of wind blew down to their bodies. Anubis's electric blue aura lit up, releasing blue haze that turned orange, it met Aanujah's purple haze. Their hands met, just as their haze did.

Together the two voices rose over the wind speaking old words in Khemetu, the key to unlocking the portals. The key that lived with the ancient Women of Council known as the Red Riders, was given to Aanujah only when she remembered herself. The couple smiled at one another, repeating the words once more. The goddess and god bodies disappeared, melting into their conjoined haze, seeping through the portal.

The unlocking of the portal now freed all those from the Underworld that fell. They were finally free to go home.
