The Last Azvisalokya by Mii Ryouma (red scrolls of magic txt) 📕

at his watch... No! It's 09:23 pm.
- "I won't make it...."
Jullia took his face between her hands and told him.
- "No need for going back to the hotel, I'm fine. We're going to go together to that meeting. And...taraaaa, no harm done. "

          This is not the Jullia I knew, this confident strong woman isn't the sweet timid person I've known since childhood.
He just said
- "Jullia... babe... I love you."
- "I know."
Even her answer was strange

 

          Eldiis took them directly to an amazing villa-penthouse in Mountain View of Giza plateau.
That time nothing happened to him or to Jullia, it was as it never happened hours ago.

 

          Jullia was smiling all the way; she wasn't only the woman from this morning, but also a witch that lived for hundreds of years.

 

          Not afraid from that craggy face anymore, she was an awakened human: a vapidus, a half-saatnee that her powers exceeded those of normal awakened ones, the elder's powers. She knew he was a saatnee from the vampire clan, but the baby was safe, he couldn't smell her anymore, that stone was the perfect protection spell.

 

          Ilen came to meet his prey: David, but his eyes went directly to the beautiful wife.
- "Oh my! Welcome to my residence...witch! "

 

David was like:
what the hell!?  

 

 

 

-----------------------------------------------

BEHIND THE RED LINE

 

 

 

 

          Jullia dropped her husband's hand, walked directly to face Ilen, kneeled in the most implicit obedience. She took his left hand, and kissed his ring that was set with a jet-stone, the same stone she was wearing as a pendant around her neck.

 

- "Your name, beautiful witch elder." Ilen finally spoke arrogantly.
- "Jullia, you majesty. " eyes closed, and her forehead touching Ilen's hand.

 

          David screamed to them
" What the hell is that Jullia? .. What..." Eldiis seized him in a blink of an eye; a strong kick came from behind, caused him to fall on his knees.
David tried his best, but nothing to do between the beast's arms.

 

          He didn't want to think about that humiliation for his years of an FBI agent, or about the monster who handcuffed and gagged him, or even about that trap he walked in, with his free will.

 

          Struggling was his worst idea. The one who pinned him down was Eldiis, the mighty vampire warrior, and the lord right hand.

 

          And... as if he was no longer existing , no one seemed to notice him. Not even his honey... his babe... his wife... his love...his...

 

          Jullia was still kneeling, eyes closed, waiting for his majesty to give an order. ILEN lifted her chin up with his fingertips, leaned over her face, and kissed her lips.

 

          That was a long kiss, a very long one. He was sucking blood from her lower lip and his red eyes turned black, the frenzy he felt was unstoppable. The greatest lord almost fell on his knees weakened by an unprecedented need, if it wasn't for Jullia who put his hand on her pregnant abdomen.

 

          He pulled away questioning with his —finally normal— red eyes about what happened:
To him, the absolute powerful lord of saatnees , he couldn't restrain himself from the blood of a witch!
And to that witch elder, how dare you resist me?

 

          He wasn't the only one asking questions, Eldiis was shocked to see a saatnee defying the lord will, and David already has killed —in his own world— that Ilen more than ten times in the most extreme torturous ways, how could they force him to witness such a sick behavior.

 

- "Allow me your majesty to explain." Jullia looked directly into the lord eyes.
He just nodded.
"I put my powers in this vessel to accomplish Takara's wish.."

 

He grinned and said
- "The blood and the power of the Azvisalokya is sacred" he touched his lips as he was savoring the left taste. "I believe it's almost the time... Aaaaah, the moonchild of the prophecy.."

 

Ilen put a light kiss on Jullia's cheek, and whispered in her ear threatening
" Awakening a human on one's own will, has never been allowed... dear Jullia. "
He added pulling away from her " such a waste"

 

Why is everything dark?

Babe, what happened to you?
 His majesty! ..Majesty my a**
When? Where? How she...

 

          David was hearing a very distant voice calling his name, an unpleasant one.

 

          He tried to open his eyes, a sudden horror jumped in front of them.
The last thing he remembered was Jullia's hand on top of his head.
- " Jull ... Jull..." he was screaming the fire inside him, the killing layers of rage, anger, shame, madness, and the black destiny hole he jumped in, few days ago.

 

          He remembered what Mr.Klein said back then in the CID office.

 

          You'll see the world in a way that you have never imagined, the truth you've always sought about hidden agendas will be freely open to you.
Witch!... Ilen called Jullia witch!... he is like a king!... your majesty!!
Is that the truth hidden from us? Am I living inside a nightmare?

 

          He decided not to live anymore inside his own shell, wailing from every cell in his body. His former lifestyle was gone for good, the day he shook hands with Mr.Klein. He needed to understand and confront the other version of this world, if he was planning to take his family back.

 

          Years of training and learning every single way to infiltrate the mafia, weren't useless. The ultimate challenge I was always seeking, is about to begin... from... now.

 

          David opened his eyes to see...

 

 

 

THE SECOND GATE (of David's Hell)

 

          He was handcuffed to an armchair, not just him. Six other people were there, not in a dark small room, but in an auditorium!
Three women and four men including him.

 

          Pain, Anger, frustration, sadness, fear, and countless other feelings were printed on their faces. Except for one woman in her late twenties, who seemed relaxed in a very comfortable way.

 

          David raised his head to the source of the annoying and irritating noise, to see the audience. All those people were gathered at this place to see or to watch something.. that's for sure.
He turned to the man next to him, anxiety was screaming through his wide opened eyes, and muttered to him.
- "Do you think we're going to die tonight?"
- «shut up, shut up, shut up..." the other five people were shouting.
- "Well, I'm not going to perform in a striptease show for them." David was trying to ease the volcanic atmosphere humming around them.

 

          The young man on the farthest chair from David started crying, he was the skinniest among them, and apparently the youngest.
- "stop it, four eyes." The relaxed woman seemed to be annoyed now, she continued
"Consider yourself one of the luckiest humans, stupid. You should be happy, celebrating your rebirth tonight, your awakening as a half-saatnee... Aaaaah... finally... "

 

- "Half what? Are you playing a sick joke on us? First witches, and then half I don't know what? "
That was David's boiling anger

 

She answered him
- "The audience, those hundreds of people are saatnees and half-saatnees, vapidus, I don't like that last name though. Saatnees are not humans, but can breed with them. Their children or grandchildren are humans with a hidden potential, like us. Once awakened, their original powers are back."

 

         No one opened his mouth, frozen. Not humans! Aliens! f*********k!

 

She ended her explanation
- "There are seven clans, every clan has the right to add a member in the night of a full eclipsed moon, like tonight. Each one of us was chosen to be the new member of a clan. I... "
She couldn't talk anymore; something was preventing her from moving and speaking, not just her, but all the handcuffed humans sitting there.

 

          Ilen was without a warning in front of the audience, the noise stopped in a lightning speed, no human could see him arriving. He wasn't the only person appearing all of a sudden there, another human was with him!

 

          The handsome yet frightening human retreated to a corner; his black leather sherwani couldn't hide the statuesque well-built body underneath. He stood there leaning on the wall, hands and legs crossed as if he was waiting for something or someone. His long braided white hair added more mystery around the fearsome appearance he was already reflecting.

 

          Ilen stood behind David, his hands on David's shoulders, and began his royal speech:   

 

" My friends...

 

elders, warriors, all saatnees and half-ones...

 

Welcome...to the next era...

 

Tonight...

the longest awaited prophecy...

is about to blossom, under the sacred light...

 

witchcrafter clan...

for sin within your elders...who already awoke a human...
    death shall be the punishment...

the clan will be forgiven..though.

Only the sinner blood should feed the awakened...

 

Tonight..
     my beloved people..

the miracle soon be witnessed before our eyes...

 

I wish nothing..but glory for us...

 

Glory for saatnees... "

          Every one repeated after him "glory for saatnees "

 

          He turned his head to the right and nodded.
Jullia, the witch elder came, wearing a white gown. She was ready to face her death, that's the punishment she deserved for defying the laws, for awakening a human on her own will. She wasn't that much of Jullia , but the parasite that was taking her name and memories.

 

          Ilen gently helped her to climb, then to lay down on a sculptured ancient big table.
He took his time when running his fingers on her body from head to toe, and going back. Then stopped when reached her pregnant abdomen, and put his hands on both sides.

 

- "I shall show you the way out. Asvisalokya, and no doubt. " He said to the unborn baby.
Then looked into Jullia's eyes and added
"Face you death tonight witch elder. The life given by your sacrifice, we will hold dear. "

 

          No words could describe the burning flames of hell eating David from the inside of every single cell.
For sin within your elders who already awoke a human, death shall be the punishment!
That's ... Jull..
Face you death tonight witch elder...

 

          His body and soul were wrapped in burning coal that started eating his brain and heart.
Only the sinner blood should feed the awakened!
We... the awakened... will feed on Jull...
I'm not going to survive this night...
He closed his eyes, and isolated himself in his own volcanic hell.

 

"It is the time." Ilen raised both arms and ordered "open the dome"
The huge dome of that auditorium began to move slowly, until it reached the last inch. The eclipse was almost full.

 

"Elders performing the awakening,
