The dawn broke, blurry light spread around the forest, birds started chirping and flying but my mother was quiet,
"Mother? say something, are you tired, tell me do you want to go somewhere else from here?, tell me I am here" I was shaking her shoulder, slowly, her body felt heavy and squatted on the ground on my knees, her head face slipped down on my lap, it was covered with her hairs, I moved them with my finger,
"Mother?"
But her eyes were closed, she didn't open them no matter how much I cried and called for her, I was caressing her face and begging her to look at me but she refused little by little her body was losing the warmth I felt whenever she held me, put me in the ease every time was fading slowly,
I leaned my face to her picked up her head and held it close to me.
And cried and cried and cried...I was pleading to her to not leave me alone but the words didn't come out of my mouth, I know something was not right she wasn't hugging me back she was not even moving her arms, why didn't she? did I do something why she is leaving me alone, to suffer?
"Please open your eyes Mother, I promise I will never let go of you, I will do everything I won't complain about anything I will not even throw tantrums over the food I'll eat everything, so make them for me.....Come on at least say yes..wake up please"
Every second of the time felt like an eternity to me, and before I knew the tears dried up, I was holding her more tightly but enough not to hurt and sat there quietly, if that she wants I will stay here forever with her, right here!
And through the eerie silence 4 Men appeared, they were Raven in their robe they were looking at me and the dead the two of them went close to the bodies of Norman, Ronald, and Kosa, and one took a step toward me,
"Don't come closer" I said I wasn't looking at them,
"What?" He spoke,
"D O N T, C O M E, C L O S E R" The emotions felt hollow in me,
"YOU CAME HERE TO TAKE HER AGAIN! I WON'T LET GO THIS TIME IF YOU TOUCH HER I WILL KILL YOU!"
"Sir this kid," the man spoke,
"He is Cara's son, looks like something awful happened here" the man who stood in beside him spoke It was a familiar voice the same I heard on that day when she was taken away,
"Hey Kid what happened here?" He spoke to me in a hoarse voice,
I remained silent, I didn't want to say anything or do anything I just wanted to stay there with her quietly,
He started treading towards me and he crouched on one knee and removed his mask, A mature face with blue eyes and red hair there was a scar-like of slashing was keeping his lift eye closed,
"My name is Serlin Quil, I am their head of this Unit, your mother has committed a crime by running away from prison while being under investigation she is-"
I chuckled,
"Hn did I said something funny?" he raised his right eyebrow,
"You were played like a fool, because of your shitty regulations you were played like pawns, you upheld the peace protect in the end you are nothing more than their tools!" I said in a slow and blank voice,
"Hey watch your mouth brat-" the man yelled,
"Played? what do you mean? are you saying we were manipulated to do this, listen, kid, We are The Elite we never make mistakes, what do want to prove here? come clean or else I want to forgive you for offending us!" he had a strict voice but clueless and fooled intellect was an irony.
"Yes, you were played, she was framed because of you she left me alone!" I said in low voice,
"By Who?" he said,
Each Raven closer and all three of them surrounded me,
"By Dusti-,
By Ronald, he framed my mother to sell the document and to distract you!" and I narrated everything, my mother told me to tell them,
"Sir?" one of them spoke, "should I go check Ronald house it won't take time with my Decryption Spells if I use them on my best 3 level scale I can easily extract and discover anything hidden house it won't take much time I will tolerate a ran away criminal son accusing us!"
" 8-5 & 8-7 " Serlin
"YES SIR!" both of them in unison
"You both go and check Ronald house this instance, we can't remain silent and cozy on this case you 10 minutes to report back until then 8- 4 "
"YES SIR!" the man besides Serlin,
"You go inform the Unit 13 to clean up here, I will besides the kid"
"YES SIR!" 8-4,
"Now Disperse! 8-7 Take them" Serlin,
"Tch too much hassle,
[ I HEREBY USE MY AUTHORITY AND BLESSING OF MESSENGER OF GODS TO LEAD ME TO WHERE MY MIND WISH]
[ DIRECTION 3674 FOOTSTEPS TO THE NORTHEAST] •¹ " 8-7,
And abruptly a Spell circle appeared above three of them and outermost ring of the Circle rotated And they disappeared,
The Serlin sat quietly in front of me and I was holding the Cold body of my mother, with a single thought in my mind,
I won't let her go.
After few minutes, Serlin lifted his head abruptly and looked at his right, and from a thin, A spell Circle emerged again and it's outermost circle Rotated and Two Raven appeared through it, they were probably the same two from before from the direction Serlin was looking,
"8-7 you rest for a while you used too much mana,
" THANK YOU SO MUCH, SIR, I AM TIRED AH!" 8-7 laid on the ground "now please don't ask me to teleport again Sir, I'll die!!".
-
"8-5 Report about the Ronald house" Sirelin
"Sir... I.." the unwillingness was clear in his voice,
"WHAT? SPEAK!" Serlin,
"We found some documents in Ronald's house, it was hidden in the portrait by Solid art spell •², It was well hidden and looked like a real part of the painting so it took me some time, and I cross-checked the fake one that we apprehended from Norma and Kosa it looks like the fake one only had 20% of the original information and the Documents in Ronald house some quite significant and delicate information about our Security like Data and abilities and backgrounds of each Raven and much other input about other things If these were about to leak it may have proven catastrophic ! "
Serlin disappointment was clear on his face,
"Alright, both of you are released from your duty today go home and rest this is something I should bear responsibility, you are ordered to keep this information to you until I get any further order on this matter from the Head Lord Dustin"
Serlin clenched his teeth when he uttered his name as he despised him for something,
I was listening to all this but none of it put ease to me,
"And Aaris Ralkier I am sorry for your loss and your mother-"
"will your sorry would bring her back, will the remorse of yours bring her back if not then be quiet!" I said,
"I know what you went through but listen to me it's about Tresguys' " Serlin.
