Chapter 167 - Vol. 12 - Chapter 3: The Sixth Key

Part 1 – Golden Jungle, Florida

(BBBBBOOOOMMMM)

A huge explosion destroys the whole terrain changing the landscape completely. The waterfall disappears; the whole forest is on fire. The only thing standing is the Golden Temple that was protected by Marjorie; Ginkuma is also safe thanks to his manna shield. In the middle of the crater, Aleister and Raions stand staring each other as they breathe heavily. The jungle is on fire, the flames expand revealing a golden temple hidden in the forest.

"You sure are tough opponent, I must thank you, I haven't had such a good time." Raions says as he is covered in blood.

"Well to be honest I never thought the Lion King would appear in person to fight me." Aleister says as he has a little blood in his face as well. The smoke begins to clear as there are dead bodies all over the place and large craters surround the terrain.

Aleister smiles and says; "I am sorry but I will take the sixth key with me."

"You sure are stubborn; do you want to go another round?" Raions says to Aleister. Aleister takes out a special gem and nods in agreement.

Raions begins to walk forward and charges straight at Aleister.

(BBBBBBOOOOMMMM)

Aleister and Raions continue to fight; meanwhile, Marjorie who is on the top of the temple sees the altar. The altar has a small cage that has the golden key.

"Finally the sixth key will be mine." Marjorie takes the knife that has the native's blood and makes blood fall into the small altar. The altar begins to open slowly; the key begins to shine a bright golden color. The key begins to levitate, Marjorie smiles with excitement, she grabs the key and says; "Mission accomplish."

Marjorie jumps off the temple and heads towards where Aleister was. Meanwhile Aleister only evades Raions attacks, he opens a portal and makes specters appear trying to slow Raions down, however, Raions destroys the specters will high speed. Aleister begins to think:

"If I drag this longer, I might have to use "that" and "they" would notice, but I don't have choice."

Suddenly Raions disappears from his sight; he appears behind Aleister and says:

"You are slow my friend and this is checkmate." Raions is about stab Aleister, at that moment, Marjorie appears and makes the ground to split in two separating Raions an Aleister.

"That was close one, thank you dear." Aleister says as he breathes heavily. Marjorie smiles and says; "Don't worry dear, I got your back."

"Sir, are you okay?" Ginkuma appears behind Raions, Raions breathes heavily and smiles replying:

"Yes I'm okay, don't worry about me."

"Did you get the key dear?" Aleister asks Marjorie, Marjorie takes out the key and says; "Yes dear, I have it."

Raions and Ginkuma see that they have the key, Raions laughs and says:

"It appears I have lost, let's call it a draw for now, because I was going to kill you but you got the key."

"I accept your proposal, plus I think we made a scene here." Aleister replies as he sees the surroundings. Raions deactivates his esper suit and says:

"Very well, we will leave now, I hope I can fight you again Aleister Lucifugus and you too, Marjorie Bellerose."

Aleister breathes heavily and gets furious saying; "Damn it, Raions Miyazono, I swear I will kill you someday."

Part 2 – Palm City; Later that Day

Raions Miyazono and Ginkuma rest in the hotel room, Raions was worn out because of his fight with Aleister. Ginkuma is fast asleep in his bed. Raions is furious as he says:

"Damn it, I should have used "it" and finished it quickly but it would have worn me out even more."

(RRRRIIIIIINNNNGGG)

Raions sees his phone ringing, he sigh with his eyes close and takes out a special sphere, he puts it in the ground and light begins to come out of the sphere. The hologram of Allen comes out and he asks:

"Hey Raions, how was your mission?"

"I failed, Aleister Lucifugus got the key." Raions says as he leans back. "What did you say? But why did you fail?" Allan demands an explanation, Raions sighs and replies:

"Because Aleister is a demon, he is much stronger than he appears." Raions says as he looks at the ceiling, Allan lowers he head and says; "I see, well at least both of you are alright, right now you must rest because we will need you to head to Sun City, it appears something big is going to happen in two days."

"Understood, we will head towards Sun City and destroy Darius Lucifugus." Raions says with a serious tone. "Very well, I will leave you to rest."

"Before you go, I must ask what you know about Marjorie Bellerose." Raions stands up and asks Allan, Allan who is shocked asks; "Why do you ask, Marjorie was supposed to be in Sun City, was she with Aleister?"

"Yes, and she is Aleister's fiancée according to them, but I must say that she is dangerous." Raions replies to Allan who asks; "Why are you saying that?"

"Her manna was immense, even greater than mine and yours. But her killing intent was the most fearful one. That girl is a demon; keep a close eye on her." Raions says as he ends the transmission. "I understand I will investigate her" Allan says as he finishes the transmission as well. Allan stands up and says to Heidi:

"I need you to investigate the Bellerose family and why Raions did mention Marjorie Bellerose."

"I understand, I will begin right now." Heidi says as she sees Allan with a worried expression.

Meanwhile in another hotel, Aleister wakes up from his sleep. Due to the injuries he suffered in the fight against Raions. He tries to stand up but Marjorie was sleeping on top of him. Marjorie wakes up and lifts her body and says:

"Good morning dear, are you feeling better?"

Aleister smiles and replies; "Of course because I have you with me," Marjorie leans forward and kisses Aleister, she smiles and takes off her dress being only in her underwear and says:

"How about if we have some fun dear? I want you to make me yours."

Aleister begins to chuckle, he stands up and replies; "I already told you, you know I want you more than anyone but you must remain pure. The reason is that you powers are much stronger if you are pure. When the time comes, you will be mine."

Marjorie puffs her cheeks and says; "You only want me because I am her reincarnation right?"

Aleister leans and kisses her saying; "You gotit wrong, I fell for you ever since we were kids. That is why I want to make you my wife as soon as possible. After this is over we are getting married."

Marjorie smiles and replies; "I look forward in being your…" –BAAADDDUUUMMMPP- Marjorie's head begins to hurt as she begins to think on the words that Uriel dedicated to in the letter she read:

I want you to be my wife, and for that lets escape together when I return, I´ve come to realize that I want to be with you forever.

Marjorie's left eye turns blue as she breathes heavily thinking; "Uriel, Uriel, he will be waiting for me, I must…"

(BBBAADDDDDUUUMMMPPP)

The headache stops, Aleister with a worried expression asks; ��Are you alright dear?"

Marjorie lifts her head having both of her eyes green and says; "I'm alright, don't worry about me."

Aleister smiles of relief, he begins to hug her saying; "I don't want to lose you, please stay with me forever." Marjorie hugs him back as she begins to shed a tear and replies; "I promise to be with you forever." However, she had blue eyes instead of green eyes.

Darius who was sitting in his office when the phone rings, he answers the phone by saying:

"My son, how did it go?"

"Good news father, Marjorie and I captured the Golden Key. The makes five for us, there are two left." Aleister tells with excitement to Darius, Darius smiles and says; "Excellent, don't worry about the key that Juan has, I already negotiated with him. The only one left is the seventh key located in this city."

"Good father, now we will head to North Carolina, to recruit the final member of Sabia Regueli (Sword of the King). We will be there tonight, and in Sun City by tomorrow." Aleister explains to Darius, Darius replies to Aleister:

"My son, please be careful, we don't know how she will react. Please keep your fiancée safe."

"Don't worry father, she will believe me. Marjorie will convince her for sure, after all she is..."

"Wait my son, don't speak out loud, and remember that is a sensitive matter and people will hear us." Darius stops Aleister, Darius continues to speak; "Be careful my son, I will commence the operation tomorrow, I look forward for good news my son."

"I will father, we will see each other tomorrow." Aleister and Darius hang the phone. Darius begins to laugh and says:

"Tomorrow, we will be enlightened."

Part 4 – Lucifugus Mansion

(KNOCK, KNOCK)

"I'm coming in" Anastasia walks in to Alejandro's bedroom; Alejandro is playing cards with Cassidy. Alejandro was teaching Cassidy how to play poker. Cassidy who is looking at her cards makes a confident face and says:

"I have two pairs of Queens, I win."

Alejandro smiles and replies; "Sorry but I have two pairs, one of kings and one of Ace." Cassidy frowns and puffs her cheek saying; "No fair, you always win, are you cheating?"Alejandro rolls his eyes with a smile:

"Perhaps, maybe I am or maybe not?" Alejandro makes the cards appear on his hand and disappear; Cassidy gets surprised and says; "WOW, WHERE DID THEY GO?"

Alejandro puts his hand on Cassidy's ear and lifts her hair making many cards appear and begin to rain down on the bed. Cassidy looks with excitement as Alejandro says; "TAA-DDAA"

"WOW THAT'S INCREDIBLE, HOW DID YOU DO THAT?'

Alejandro makes a smug face and replies; "A good magician never reveals his secrets." Cassidy makes a puff face once more and with an angry tone she says; "AWW, NO FAIR, I HATE THAT."

"How did you do that, Alejandro?" Anastasia asks with a curious face, Alejandro laughs and says; "So I got your attention as well, I'm sorry but this is what you call magic"

"I understand, well Cassidy, it's time for bed, please go to your room." Anastasia changes into an emotionless expression. Anastasia gets off the bed and runs to door screaming:

"BYE ALEJANDRO, SEE YOU TOMORROW."

Alejandro waves to Cassidy, she leaves the room, and Anastasia puts a silver trait with food, Alejandro smiles and says; "Thank you, I'm actually hungry."

Anastasia vows and says; "Well then, I shall take my leave."

"Wait, I want to talk to you, please sit down for a moment." Alejandro insists to Anastasia, Anastasia without making any expression decides to sit in the chair in front of Alejandro. Alejandro who is eating soup and bread decides to split the bread in two and gives it to Anastasia. At first, Anastasia refuses by saying; "No thank you, I have already ate."

"Come on, in my family, one can be friends by sharing a piece of bread." Alejandro insists to Anastasia with a smile, Anastasia thinks "Friends?" and decides to accept the bread, both of them eat the bread, Alejandro submerges Anastasia's piece in the soup and says:

"Here, when you do this, the bread actually tastes better."

Anastasia eats the bread and opens her eyes wider, she finishes eating the piece of bread as she says; "It's actually really good."

"You see, I told you, thank you for the food." Alejandro says with a smile, Anastasia with an emotionless expression replies; "No need to thank me, I am just following my master's orders."

"Why are you following Aleister's family, you know they are evil right?" Alejandro says with a serious expression, Anastasia puts a naïve expression and replies; "I'm sorry, I do not understand that. As for your questions, I follow them because they gave me a purpose in life."

"What do you mean by that?" Alejandro asks with suspicion, Anastasia lowers her head and replies:

"Eight years ago, the village where I lived was burned down, my family and friends died in the fire. During that event, I was the only survivor and Olivia found me."

"Where are you from?" Alejandro asks Anastasia, she lifts her head and replies:

"I am from Eastern Europe; Olivia took me in and adopted me. I am now Aleister's maid and I follow all his orders."

"Wait a minute are you saying that your Aleister's half sister right, then why are you a maid?" Alejandro asks Anastasia who looks at him and replies:

"Because that is the purpose of my life, I need to serve him in order to be useful. Aleister has always been kind to me, he has always protected me and I will serve him for life, because I belong to him."

Alejandro blushes and asks; "Are you by any chance, in love with him?" Anastasia makes a clueless expression and replies; "What is love? I don't understand that word." Alejandro sighs and thinks; "Oh man, I have such a dirty mind, I thought this was a classic Japanese situation of Brother and Sister Love but I guess she is just an airhead."Alejandro laughs and begins to explain:

'Well you see, love is something you feel towards the person who is the most important to you, for example the love you feel for your parents and brother, you care deeply for them."

"I don't understand at all" Anastasia replies not knowing what Alejandro meant, He begins to laugh and says:

"I guess we have a long way to go." Alejandro smiles as he continues to speak with Anastasia who is carefully hearing him with a curious expression.
