Chapter 14 - Child of healing part 1

The Spider-Napoleon of crime

" Let us tell you a story. This is going to be a story about a child who heals others and a mastermind who has everyone in his web. Now, the question becomes, can the child heal all wounds or are those caught in the web, eaten by the spider "

On an unknown world, on the sea, is a boat, and on that boat is the Archangel Raphael alongside his son, Thomas or as his friends call him, Toby.

Father and son were on a fishing trip.

" Father! Father! Look at this big one I have caught! " said Toby.

Raphael looked at the large tuna in his son's small arms.

Raphael just smiled and patted his son's head.

" Well done my boy, it seems that our bellies will be full to night "

Father and son returned to land, where they made a campfire and enjoyed some tuna.

After their bellies were full.

Father and son now enjoyed the sunset.

" It is time for me to leave " said Thomas a little sad that he was going on an adventure without his father.

Raphael looked at his son.

Raphael then moved closer to his son, and held his son in his embrace, Raphael then said

" Listen my son, for you to heal others, you yourself must be without pain and sorrow. So I want to say this just once, my dear Thomas, whenever you are wounded, know that I will come to heal you and then I will say that I love you, no matter where you are "

Thomas could not help but cry a little in his father's embrace.

Father and son stayed like that for awhile.

Finally, Thomas stood up and said

" Don't worry father, and know that I will do my best to heal the wounds of others "

Raphael patted his son's head one last time.

Thomas then left that unknown world, leaving Archangel Raphael all alone for awhile.

Archangel Raphael then teleported back to heaven.

The year is around 1500 in the city known as Florence Italy.

Toby was now in Florence Italy.

Toby walked around the busy streets of Florence.

Toby immediately noticed that all the women were wearing gorgeous dresses, and the men were wearing equally elegant clothes, but some of the men were also holding brushes, hammers and chisels.

It was clear to anyone, that this was the height of the Renaissance.

Toby just kept walking around, not knowing where to go, but that was when Toby bumped into someone, and that someone turned out to be an old man.

" Oh, please excuse me " said Toby.

Toby looked at the old man who looked like he was in his fifties.

The old man just looked at Toby.

The old man then smiled, the old man then said

" I see, you are a Nephilim "

It was almost like Toby turned into a statue by the sheer shock and surprise he felt by the old man's words.

".....but… how could you possibly know that? " said Toby.

" Let us just say that I have some experience with supernatural children. Oh, where are my manners, my name is Blaise, dear child "

" And my name is Thomas but my friends call me Toby "

Toby and Blaise then shook hands.

" Tell me, dear Toby, do you perhaps have a place to call your home? " said Blaise.

" No, I just arrived in this world…. " said Toby.

" I see, then would you like to come and live with me as my apprentice " said Blaise.

" I would love to! " said Toby with a smile.

" Then it is settled, but I should say, that I already have another apprentice, but I do hope that the two of you can get along as friends " said Blaise.

Blaise and Toby then walked to Blaise's home/workshop.

The top half of Blaise's house was the home, and the bottom half was the workshop, where art flourished.

Blaise and Toby walked into the workshop where Blaise's other apprentice was hard at work.

" Ambrosius, come and say hi to our new family member " said Blaise.

Ambrosius stopped what he was doing and walked over to Toby.

Ambrosius and Toby were now face to face.

Toby raised his hand, wanting to shack Ambrosius' hand.

Ambrosius just looked at Toby, but after a few seconds, Ambrosius smiled and then shook Toby's hand.

" My name is Toby, it is a pleasure to meet you "

" Likewise, my name is Ambrosius Aurelianus, but just call me Ambrosius "

The two small boys just smiled at each other.

" Hey, wanna see the sculpture I have been working on? " said Ambrosius.

" I would be honored to " said Toby.

The two boys then ran to look at Ambrosius' sculpture.

Blaise just smiled and closed the door behind him.

But this story is not finished just yet.

Within the heart of Florence, within what looked like a castle, sat a man on what looked like a throne.

" It seems that the Nephilim has arrived in Italy, sooner than expected, but we can not think about that, for it seems that our guest has arrived, later than expected " said the man who was the Spider-Napoleon of crime, Moriarty/Anansi.

The person who walked up to Moriarty/Anansi, looked like a man, but to any who knew better, they would know that the man was really the King of hell's most loyal and trustworthy ally, known as Adrammelech.

" We are so honored that you would join us, loyal friend of the devil " said Moriarty/Anansi.

" Watch your tongue human, for as you know, I am not a fellow human, so I could kill you here and now " said Adrammelech.

" Oh, our dear friend, you should know that we are not fully human either, but do forgive us, and please tell us of your kings responds to our deal " said Moriarty/Anansi with a smile.

" My King has accepted your offerer, and we now have a deal. My King sends some of his subordinates to be at your command. Just don't forget to hold your end of the deal " said Adrammelech.

" But of course, we are a 'man' of our word "

Adrammelech just looked at Moriarty/Anansi.

" Hmmm, is there something on your mind? " said Moriarty/Anansi.

" I just can't tell the difference between us " said Adrammelech.

" We can tell you the difference, but you won't like our answer " said Moriarty/Anansi with a smile.

Adrammelech knew that he was just insulted, but he also knew that he could not give into his anger.

" I will be leaving now, your smell disgust me " said Adrammelech.

Adrammelech then teleported back to his King in hell.

Moriarty/Anansi were still sitting on their throne, and with a grin on their face, Moriarty/Anansi said

" We can't wait to see this story unfold "

The lady detective and the Holy knight

Before I begin, there is something you all should know.

Toby has made a new friend, but this new friend is not like Ambrosius, who is human.

No, Toby's new friend is a squirrel, the squirrel known as Ratatoskr, who can also talk, but only a few individuals can hear Ratatoskr talk.

Ratatoskr was sitting on Toby's shoulder, while Toby was walking around Florence.

" Toby, get me some nuts! " said Ratatoskr.

" Sure " said Toby.

Toby then bumped into a large man, who could be mistaken for a giant.

" HE IS HUGE! " yelled Ratatoskr with his tiny voice.

Toby looked at the man who was wearing knight's armor and had a sword and a shield.

" Please excuse me sir knight " said Toby.

Toby could now see, from behind the large man walked out a woman, but this woman was unlike the other women of Florence.

This woman was wearing a suit.

The woman looked at Toby, the woman then smiled, the woman then said

" Hello there love, please don't be sacred, I know that Percival looks scary but trust me when I say, that you won't find a sweeter knight in all of creation "

Toby looked at Percival and Percival just gave Toby a warm smiled.

" Uhm, if I may, who are you two? " said Toby.

" Oh, how rude of us, I am E. Holmes, the lady detective, and this is my dear friend and lover and soon to be husband, Sir Percival " said Holmes with a smile.

" Nice to meet you, and don't listen to the last two things she said " said Sir Percival.

" Weirdos " said Ratatoskr.

" Uhm okay, can I perhaps help you two with something? " said Toby.

" Nice of you to offer, but we are just passing by, what say you my dear husband, shall we move on " said Holmes with a smile.

Percival just looked at the lady detective.

Percival finally said

" let us get going "

Holmes patted Toby's head and then said

" Take care love, it was a pleasure meeting you "

Holmes and Percival then walked away.

" What nice people " said Toby with a smile.

" Toby, NUTS! " said Ratatoskr.

" Right " said Toby.

Holmes and Percival were now at a place where no one could see them.

" Well, since there is no one around how about you and I have sex right here and now " said Holmes as she was lending up at Sir Percival's chestplate.

" Would you stop that already, I have taken a chastity vow, and kindly stop calling me your husband " said Sir Percival.

Holmes lend closer to Sir Percival's face.

Her breast were rubbing up against Sir Percival's armor.

Her right leg was right at Sir Percival's crouch.

" My dear Holy knight. I have said it before and I will say it again, I will take your virginity " said Holmes with a smile, that could fill any virgin with lust.

Sir Percival's just looked Holmes right in the eyes, Sir Percival then said

" You are going to have to try better than that "

" Oh, so what you are saying, is that there is a chance " said Holmes.

Sir Percival now realized what he had said.

" Ah, don't look so disappointed in yourself, we both knew that sex between us was only a matter of time, and soon after sex, we can get married " said Holmes.

" Won't happen " said Sir Percival still disappointed in himself.

" Never say never, love, never say never "

Holmes then took out her pocket watch.

Holmes pressed the top of the pocket watch.

Holmes then threw the pocket watch into the air.

The pocket watch glowed and when the pocket watch came down, it had fully transformed into a

Bentley Blower.

A Bentley Blower was now standing in front of Holmes and Percival.

" Can that pocket watch of yours really transform into anything you want? " said Percival.

" Indeed, cars, weapons and even buildings. We should meet up with Menelik, he has probably brought the son of Moses with him " said Holmes.

" Then let us get going, lady detective " said Sir Percival with a smile.

" Indeed, let us go on the Holy quest, my dear Holy knight " said Holmes also with a smile.

The two companions entered the Bentley Blower and then the two of them vanished from Toby's world.

Lady(goddess) Luck

Toby was walking around Florence with Ratatoskr.

" Toby, let us do something fun today " said Ratatoskr.

" Fun…. " said Toby.

" Hey kid, wanna try your luck? " said a man.

Toby looked and saw a man sitting on the street with a small box in front of him, and on the box were some dise.

Toby walked over to the man.

" Excuse me, were you talking to me? " said Toby.

" Indeed I was, listen, you wanna play a game? " said the man with a smile.

" A game! " said Ratatoskr.

" A game? " said Toby.

" Yeah, a game, where all you need to do, is roll these three dises, and get a total of 10 points " said the man with a grin.

" Hmmm " said Toby.

" Toby sounds fun, let us try " said Ratatoskr.

" Okay, I'm game " said Toby.

" Great! 5 Florin Per round " said the man.

Toby put 5 Florin on the box, and so the games began, but after a couple of rounds, Toby had now lost 50 Florin.

" How could a not get a total of 10 points…. " said Toby confused.

The man smiled, the man then said

" It just seems that lady luck is not on your side today "

" Did someone say luck? " said a woman.

Toby and the man looked, and out from nowhere, was now a woman standing next to Toby.

" Oh, hello, do you want to play? " said Toby.

" By all means miss, try your luck " said the man with a smile.

The woman smiled. The woman then said

" No, I just wanna watch "

" Fine. You still wanna keep playing, kid? " said the man.

Toby was not sure, if he lost anymore money, Blaise was sure gonna be angry with him.

" Psst kid, don't worry, luck is on your side " said the woman.

Toby looked and saw that the woman had a calming smile.

So Toby kept on playing, but this time, Toby kept on winning, and in the end, Toby won 150 Florin.

The man was in disbelief.

" How??? That should not have been possible….. " said the man in even more disbelief.

" Congratulation! " said the woman.

" Please miss, let me buy you something sweet " said Toby.

The woman was surprised, but she took Toby up on his offer.

" Toby, I want some NUTS! " said Ratatoskr.

Toby and the woman were now enjoying some ice cream while Ratatoskr enjoyed some nuts.

" Miss, may I know your name? " said Toby.

" Certainly, my name is Tyche, and what is yours? "

" My name is Toby, and this is my friend, Ratatoskr " Said Toby while patting the tiny squirrel on his shoulder who was enjoying his nut.

Tyche and Toby enjoyed a nice walk through all of Florence.

The two of them just talked about various things, but the sun was starting to set, and Toby had to get back home before Blaise would worry too much.

" Miss Tyche, can I walk you home? " said Toby.

Tyche smiled.

" I would say yes, but the thing is, I don't have a home…."

" Really? Then where will you go? " said Toby worried.

" Well... I was hoping that you would allow me to inhabit your body…. " said Tyche all shy.

Toby did not know what to say, but Ratatoskr did

" Pervert "

" Shut it, you damn nut lover "

But the odd thing was, that Toby did not even think about it, before saying

" Sure "

Tyche smiled, Tyche then said

" It must be my lucky day "

Tyche then started to glow.

Tyche had now inhabited Toby's body.

" I hope that our friendship will last forever " said Toby with all his heart.

" So do I….. so do I " said Tyche with a sound of relief from with Toby, but Ratatoskr had one last thing to say

" Pervert "

" I am going to blow off your nuts " said Tyche.

" MY NUTS! " yelled Ratatoskr

Toby smiled and sighed and then Toby walked back home.

The one who is made of magic, and many other things

Toby was yet again walking around Florence.

Toby was just enjoying the nice weather.

" Toby, nuts… " said Ratatoskr.

" This damn squirrel " said Tyche.

Toby just smiled, but that was when a small puppy came and jumped up Toby's legs.

" Oh, hello, nice to meet you, how can I help you? " said Toby with a smile.

The puppy then ran into a alleyway.

Toby ran after the puppy.

When Toby entered the alleyway.

Toby noticed a table, and behind that table sat a woman with some cards.

The woman looked at Toby.

" Hello there, dear child, would you like to know your future? " said the woman with a smile.

" Sure " said Toby.

Toby was now standing in front of the woman.

" My name is Hecate, what might your name be " said Hecate.

" My name is Toby "

" Toby, I see, that you have quite an ordeal before you " said Hecate.

" What do you mean? " said Toby.

" You are caught in a web that you can not see, and you are going to be part of a game that involves life and death " said Hecate.

" What….. " said Toby in disbelief.

" You are the child of healing, and you currently have luck on your side, but you are missing one important thing, for the upcoming battles " said Hecate.

" What am I missing? " said Toby.

Hecate looked Toby right In the eyes, and then Hecate said

" Magic "

" Magic? " said Toby.

" Indeed, and luckily for you, my schedule is wide open " said Hecate with a smile.

Toby was processing everything that was said

" I have a feeling that you are not going to answer any of my questions about the future " said Toby.

" Indeed " said Hecate.

" But you are willing to help me? " said Toby.

" Indeed " said Hecate with a smile.

" Then I accept " said Toby with a smile.

Hecate's whole body then started to glow.

Hecate had now inhabited Toby's body.

" Oh, hello there Tyche, long time no see " said Hecate.

" Greetings Hecate, I hope all is well " said Tyche.

" I don't trust them " said Ratatoskr.

Hecate then made a nut appear, from out of thin air, to Ratatoskr.

" I trust her " said Ratatoskr.

" Damn squirrel " said Tyche.

Toby, yet again, just sighed and smiled.

Toby then return home, with his new friends.

Not even the Holy, are safe from the Spider-Napoleon.

Within the heart of Florence.

Was the castle that belongs to Moriarty/Anansi.

Moriarty/Anansi now had a guest.

Their guest was none other then the Pope himself,

Pope Alexander VI.

The Pope and Moriarty/Anansi were now sitting before each other.

" Dearest Pope, we just want to say, that we are honored that you would come " said Moriarty/Anansi.

" I didn't really have a choice in the matter, since you have all of Italy in your backpocket " said the Pope a little angry.

" Not backpocket, more like, web " said Moriarty/Anansi with smile.

The Pope got annoyed.

" What is it that you want? " said the Pope.

" We wish to tell you a story " said Moriarty/Anansi.

" A story? " said the Pope confused.

" Indeed, the story we are going to tell you, is your life story, and how your life ended a couple of years too early " said Moriarty/Anansi with a grin.

The Pope now started to sweat Holy sweat.

" Let us begin. You were born on the 1 of January 1431, and your birth name is Rodrigo de Borja. Despite your Holy position, you have actually fathered many children. There are also many who call you a great Pope, but it seems that your life ends, 3 years before you are meant to die " said Moriarty/Anansi.

The Pope swallowed some Holy spite.

" Tell me, what kills me before my original time? " said the Pope while dreading the answer.

" A heart attack " said Moriarty/Anansi calmly.

" And when will I have this heart attack? " said the Holy father.

" In 3 "

" In 3 what? "

" 2 "

The Pope's whole body froze.

" 1 "

The Pope then fell to the floor, and had now died from a heart attack.

" Now, let us see, how his son, Cesare Borgia likes being the new Pope " said Moriarty/Anansi.

Moriarty/Anansi lend back into their chair and looked out at all of Florence.

" The stage has been set, now let the story begin "

said the Spider-Napoleon of crime with a smile.
