Chapter 17 - CHAPTER 17: THE FLAMES OF THE MYSTERION HAS AWAKENED!

" I won't fall..", She replied striking her vicious claws out. " They will. ", Her voice deepened.

Reaching the boiling metallic bowl. She places her finger on Bianca's skin now dragging it down tearing her skin in the process resulting to a blood leakage streaming down her skin.

" Hey!.", The white Gorilla called out to her but it was already too late. A bloody hole , left in the lady's chest; her heart stripped of from it core. She dropped lifelessly into the bowl, liquidated by the hot magma. She was no more. "Holy Fuck!!!!."

The white gorilla heart drummed. He donned his gauntlet out of fear and looked hastily in both direction. He became restless. Then, it came before him. Like wind on a massive scale,the only results was a large breakthrough through his bones, his hand ripped of, disconnected from his body.

A loud cry emanated from the white gorilla's mouth. The other was in position to hit. He could hear nothing. Not even a slight sound that could help him. The wind was his only bet, he falls on his kneels roaring in pain as blood gushed out of the point his arm was ripped from.

Soon, tranquility knocked and his other hand came of again and leaving him armless. He managed and began to utilize his durability factor. Fear gripped him with ease. His body trembled. He looked here and there and saw no one. His hands were long gone.

Drops of water escaped his head. He was sweating, no.. he was terrified. He was too terrified. Finally , he began running here and there only for his head to come of with silent kill. He could only close his eyes immediately his neck got disconnected.

It crashed with the ground with a roll. Then, immediately something unseen crushes through the skull breaking it into unvalued pieces. Catching fire instantly. The gorilla's body caught fire and burned with full fury. *SLAIN!* The body sliced In half abruptly and kept burning incredibly.

The whole warehouse was silent. Bianca and Selene were still chained , no they weren't they were laying on the ground , unchained.

Later,

A black fire steak purges through the fabrics of existence. Emerging from it, Drake placed his two feet on the solid floor. Ryan dashed out of the blues. Drake except Ryan was horrified. His eyes printed on the scene. Just his feet touching the ground made him look back further in time to relive what happened. He witnessed the whole horror and shattered like fragile woods on the inside.

Reliving the moment was like reliving hell. Ryan who noticed he was stuck in a trance quickly summons his consciousness back from the past with a touch. The touch electrified him on a massive scale, awakening him. He gasped, nearly falling down but Ryan caught him by the collar and shoved him back up.

"You should learn to control your abilities more often."

Drake shrugged. "Not like I don't hella try too... but it seems nearly impossible to handle it."

Ryan sighed , walking three steps forward. While Drake ran to where his sister and Bianca laid. "What did you see?"

Drake gathering both Selene and Bianca close to him gasped in horror. "Uncle... it was cold kill. Someone killed tira and the gorilla that was with her.", He said. His voice low due to the fear that crossed his skeletons.

"Who did you see?"

"No one... am not even sure anymore. Everything happened so fast I couldn't unravel their murderer.... even though Selene and Bianca are safe.. I am still worried about where such an entity came from.".

"*Emodu! Aspirant!*", Ryan enchanted. The whole ground, illuminated in a red esoteric circle. Various runes were rotating round it course. Ryan eyes were burning wild and Phoenix insignia burned on his chest malevolently. He strictly looked down upon the area which made Drake flinch.

"...A ritual," He uttered in shock. "Was performed. One that is rendering me unable to trace the killer or even pick up anything that could lead us to the killer.", Ryan said and forwarded his steps. "Whoever did this, it existence is concealed." He regained human form , the magic circles vanished. "We Just got ourselves a case murder shit."

"We need to tell mom and dad." Drake uttered.

"...No. They can't know what happened. Not now. I need to do more diggings. This case looks familiar.", Rubbing his chin. "Judging from everything that was used for the ritual.", Laying eyes on the dead gorilla that was still burning. "Even the flames haven't been putted out yet... those aren't mere flames either."

Drake eyeballs traveled across their socket to right were the gorilla burned and burned with no end. It end had no origin. "Hun?"

"The flames of the eternal core of the mysterion burns with no end. It burns whether anything remains or not."

"It can't be undone?"

"I'm not sure... so many rituals have been performed just to achieve one horror show.. one complex situation with no way out.", He squatted near the burning gorilla. "Right now, it soul... is no more. Mutilated. It entire origin crumbled. The flames are like concept wreckers... they burn the very inks that is spewed on the page of a book to erase a certain concept and still.... burn!."

Drake got more worried.

"... Take them home. I will see you in a while. I need to do something important.", Ryan disappeared.

Drake whimpered hugging the girls closely.

Jonathan sat in his throne room , numerous books were opened round him. His mind absorbing every knowledge the books had to offer. Jonathan struggled to maintain his sanity; he was need of everything he could possibly think of. He might be a dad but deep down he was something entirely. The Blair's.. the originals were known to be monsters that only wanted to rule and dominate but in their eyes they only wanted to save more lives and bring peace.

The Originals are counted to be one of the first species to have existed. Although they arrived after after the legends of the Aaooons.

Jonathan stood up from his throne. Getting down , an insignia of the Phoenix burned viscously like it did on Ryan. His faced squeezed, he teeth grinning with anger. The lights in the room were flickering. His body tainted with void features that made him look like the devil. His eyes burned and golden crown donned him.

"Trying to regain something you lost brother. You should know as long as we are earth we need to limit our way of living or will burn this world to pieces.", A voice aroused from the depths. Pa , Pa. The footsteps stopped. Jonathan looked up to fellow in a black slim fit tux. His hands sunk in his pockets.

"Jefferson..", His form relinquished. They both came in for a hug. "Am I glad to see you."

On pulling away from the hug. "A lot of things happened in the past recent days and now there is a lot on ground."

"I know... someone awakened the flames of mysterion. I couldn't resist the scorching feeling.. my skins were tingling. I could feel everything burn!.", Jefferson exclaimed.

"... It is why I am trying to pick up from where I stopped.", Johnathan returned back to his throne. "Absorbing the knowledge and the conceptual forces in the books aren't enough."

Jefferson brought a glass drink out of thin air. Sipping it. He breathed. "Attaining the Phoenix's King Royalty Form requires high ritual. And we should be tracking down who awakened the flames... who awakened the pits to the mysterion,the pits to a greater hell."

"We'll... but we need to lay low. Whoever is unleashing sealed forces must be up to something. Having the fire of the mysterion at your finger tips is a ending line to infinite souls."

"....Does my sister in law know about this? she should be aware. The road blocks are no more safe.. I have stumbled upon many death cases that the bureau of absurdities are yet to cover up when they arrive."

Jonathan raised an eyebrow. "They aren't back yet? what the hold up?"

"Turns out the case they are handling is too complex to be left exposed. They won't be back in a year plus but I can't be sure myself. All I know is we need all the backups we can get."

Jonathan squeezed his palm into a fist. "And we will brother."

FELINE RESIDENCE.

OUTSKIRTS OF TOWN...

Blood drooled from tops to tops on the mansion. It tainted the structure. Heads, hands, fingers.. external and internal parts of the numerous lifeless corpses rained all around the residence. A foot implanted itself upon the bloody pool foundation.

The foot furthered it footsteps into the yard. A foot making impact with the bloody field causing an explosion of various array of esoteric runes to warp the residence. Revealing secrets and yet hiding some. "The same ritual.", His cold voice tuned down deeply. "What the hell is going on.."
