"Where the heck is she?" Toni asks impatiently, Abaddon chuckles.
"We have a couple more stages to go before we get to Taurus." Abaddon says to her.
"Ok well we need to hurry and get there." She says.
Not long after she speaks a growl emanates from within the surrounding woods. We all look towards Abaddon.
"Don't think about calling Jungkook to summon her shadow acid death thing cause that would be breaking a law down here." I look at him offended cause I was going to do no such thing.
"Do you think I was really going to call on Jungkook? Do you really think that low of me? He helps us when we need it. I am offended you would think that." I say putting a hand on my chest gasping making the others start to laugh.
Another growl emanates from the surrounding woods. Abaddon this time mimics the growl along with a series of clicks. We hear rustling then see three minotaurs come out. Once the come out our translators start to work.
"Thanatos who are they? What is going on? What is going?... Oh wait never mind we forgot. We know, we feel sort of bad for them having to meet the earth mother. We hope you all make it back alive." One of them tells Thanatos.
I try to keep a straight face and look oblivious to what they are saying but Jimin breaks the silence with a burst of laughter. I look at him like he's crazy when he's done he straitens up and shakes his head.
"I can't tell someone that I don't understand them when at first I couldn't but all of a sudden I can understand them and speak fluently with the same language they spoke to me in." He says in Minotaur.
We look at Thanatos and the three minotaurs to see shocked expressions.
"What?" I ask them then add.
"You people are slow minded apparently. If you haven't forgotten we are angels and demons and one of us is a Kripler while one of us is a Toble, that goes with being said that one of us is also a Chip. We all have ways of figuring out what others are saying. Can we keep going? I have a bond to keep with my mate that I don't want to lose." I say to them with a pointed look.
Thanatos nods and looks at the minotaurs. They all nod and moves out of the way before letting out a loud cry signaling to the others to let us pass without complications. We walk on a couple more hours until we have to stop for a break so some of us could eat and rest our feet a bit.
Once we a done with our break we walk some more until nightfall. We set up a small camp and settle for the night. At around midnight I am woken up by pain all over my body and not just in my head. I try to go back to sleep but the pain just gets worse. I scream out because it gets unbearable as I scream I don't realize the others come to my aid. I look up as much as I can to see Lexu kneeling down beside me. She's a healer but I don't think she can heal this.
This is bigger than a crack in the bond. Mine and Jungkook's bond is being ripped. The pain is so unbearable I break down. I can't lose Jungkook but most importantly our wolves can't lose each other. Lexu puts a cloth up to me with what I have a feeling is Angels Bain which is something to make angels unconscious. As soon as she puts the cloth to my nose I pass out.
I wake up in sweat drenched clothes. I try to call to Jungkook but I get no answer so I call to Onyx.
Onyx
Yeah, Taehyung?
What happened?
Our bond with Rain and Jungkook has been broken more but it's not fully broken so if they fracture it more it will be almost impossible for Rain and Jungkook to talk to us so I suggest we don't try to get ahold of them."
Ok, we really need to find Lilith before it breaks more.
Yeah, I know but our team members apparently don't know him important the bond is since this is taking longer than it needs to, plus it's whoever is breaking the bond which we both know is the Ten Brothers. They do understand somewhat how important this is and we've been unconscious for almost what seems like a couple of days down here is actually a couple of hours up there. The team has made progress we're now at the beginnings of the stage where we are to meet Lilith.
Yup, now pay attention to your team and Abaddon, bye. He says as his voice fades away.
"Who's been carrying me the whole time, and also I'm not able to call on Jungkook. Also I don't think that's a good idea now anyways were where we need to be." I say looking at them.
"Taehyung, you do realize you've been out for a couple of days. How do you know we got to our needed point?" Toni asks sassy getting the attention of Silvers attention.
"Did you forget I have a wolf? You could have talked to him while I was unconscious but he is unable to use my body while I'm unconscious my gosh guys you need to remember important things like that." I say almost laughing but is cut off by someone yelling but not any someone a woman.
"WHO DARES DISTURB MY DOMAIN? WHO DARES DISTURB ME?" Not long after the yelling footsteps are heard before feeling a series of thuds.
We find out what is is moments later. The thuds get louder and the ground jumps more under us making us almost fall. We all look at Abaddon questioning him but he is confused.
"Abaddon how big is this woman?" He chuckles nervously and rubs the back of his neck.
"I didn't mention she's a giantess?"
"NO, NO you did not. How could that have slipped your mind. That....That would have been great information for us to know you think?" I say angrily.
The thuds get closer then stops. I look up to find a very large, very ugly, and very angry woman in front of us. She looks at everyone of us before her eyes fall on Abaddon.
"Hi, Thanatos what brings you hear to my domain?" She asks, Abaddon roles his eyes in annoyance.
"We need the Comb of Shadows Gaea. You and I both know you're to powerful with it." He tells her.
She gasps like she's shocked then chuckles it off.
"You know Thanatos I'll never part with it unless I was dead which I am not."
"I can see clearly obviously see that and since I know the fates personally I can go take my friends and pop over there for a bit and get that situated out or you can just give us the comb and we can be on our merry way." He says to her.
A panicked look crosses her face but quickly fades as she thinks he's bluffing which I hope he is not. She starts to laugh.
"You don't believe me? Ok that's great, bye be back in a little bit cause we need to hurry." Her mouth drops as we follow Abaddon.
We get to a rock where three old ladies sit. One with one eye and the other with two don't have any. One holds a ball or yarn while the last holds a pair of scissors.
"Thanatos we know why you are here and her fate has been set. She is the mother of the earth you need to use the sword Poseidon gave you. That's the only way to ensure her death." The one eyed old lady says.
"Hurry, hurry the couple don't have much time go now, go now." The old lady holding the ball of yarn says.
"But remember that two of you have a ending fate in front of you." The old lady holding the scissors says lastly as we leave running knowing we are loosing time.
When we get to where we were Lilith is no where to be found. Abaddon apparently knows where she is as he keeps on running in the direction he knows she is. He then stops in what looks like tall black pillars or scissors that are set up like a maze.
"This is Deaths Maze, it is very dangerous if you have anything to tie yourselves to each other you need to do so very tightly. Taehyung I know you do so you'll be holding up the end of the line. The person behind me your going to be tied to me tightly as I can get it. Now hurry as The Fates said we don't have much time and no matter what you do not touch anything to the sides of you. It will kill you angel, demon, or not it will kill you." We do what he tells us and leads us through the maze to find Lilith smirking we all untie ourselves.
Abaddon takes out a sword with Poseidon's trident engraved on it and I wield a Soul sword, Lilith's smirk falls, she's the first to attack. Abaddon and I fight until one of us decapitates her.
With Lilith now decapitated Abaddon gets the Comb Of Shadows off her head. It is grey and black, the top being curved and edged with delicate black, blue, and grey gems. Abaddon then gives it to me.
The words fill my head as I hold the comb.
One day a father was walking home with his four children. A sex offender comes up to them and tells the father that he had to choose one of them or be killed who does he pick?
The question is confusing but then I understand the question.
He picks himself letting the kids run away as fast as they could.
You are close to my new handler I accept him.
I put it in a bag and put it in my backpack as we make our way out to the entrance its somehow didn't take as long going back then it did coming in. The Fates were at the entrance.
"The Ten Brothers can be over powered."
"The Ten Brothers can be defeated."
"Put the comb in the girls hair, kiss her, bite her shoulder, and hold her tight to break the spell. Cliche as it is these words tell her adu nosday. Which means I love you." They all tell me.
We all thank Abaddon for helping us and make our way back to the brothers house. After dropping off Yugyeom, Yoongi, and Hoseok after getting curious glances from the elders but we quickly leave before getting bombarded with questions. We finally get to the brothers house.
