Not only was the mansion wide but also like odd. The continuous clashing of thunders did made me scared but I had to hide it
"Lee are you scared of some small thunder sounds" Williams asked with a smile, he didn't know he was actually embarrassing me
"no! I'm not" I increased my speed to leave him, who likes to be embarrassed
"are you actually afraid?" valnor was asking me with concern but I still didn't want to answer
"no I'm not" I replied slightly increasing my voice
"okay calm down, we all have our fear" he told me beaming widely
Then the loudest thunder struck, I couldn't help but squeak and suddenly wrapped my arms around Valnor, making me rest my head on his chest. But I soon noticed something, his heart beats so slowly and also quietly that I couldn't hear a beat
"are you okay Lee?" he placed his hand on my head and for the first time I had some flashes of memories but couldn't picture it correctly
"Yes I'm fine" I broke the awkward hug and moved forward slowly but also with an embarrassed face
Throughout the hall, we came across different pictures of sophisticated men but strangely, they were all deceased.
"why is he keeping pictures of the dead?" valnor asked looking at each men pictures
"maybe for rememberance?" Williams answered but still looking at the pictures
However, I wasn't feeling good, it was like something was draining my energy and strength. Supporting myself, I placed one hand on the wall and the other on my head
"Lee?" Williams called but I was way too weak to answer
He rushed towards me, so did valnor. But Arnold face was serious like he was feeling something in the air.....
"dark magic!" he stated
"dark what?" I slowly spoke up but still I felt down
"there's dark magic around and it's coming from somewhere, I wonder why dark magic affects you my lady" he said with a confused face
"it's also odd why it's not affecting me" Williams mumbled but I heard it
"it's coming from around here!" valnor placed his hand and the wall and before I knew it, the wall shattered not from his doing, but from the darkness behind the wall
They were darkness, Yes! but in form of creatures, they were demons
"demons" valnor didn't really looked shocked at all and he actually was smiling
"why are you smiling you psycho, those are demons" Williams shouted towards him
"high ranked demons!" valnor told Williams
"I know they are High ranked demons and we need to destroy them" Williams said with anger
"this will be interesting" a thick voice spoke up from the shadows
I could barely see, my visions were blur and my hearings were fading
But I did hear what the thick voice owner said....
"darkness must prevail, the demon lord must destroy what he craves for more... EARTH AND THE LIGHT!"
"Damn this bastard!" valnor voice was with wrath
I tried to stand up but my legs didn't cooperate, something was actually dragging my strength
I didn't give up. There is an evil person standing not too far from me and I know deeply he wants to kill my friends.
Again I tried but my legs gave up, I tried again and again and again but still nothing.
"I won't give up!" I pushed my last strength and dragged my body up, even the voice in my head was telling me I couldn't, but I pressed on
But fell down.
Throughout my struggles, I couldn't see a thing, everywhere was purely dark
"you can't!, Just Give up, Nothing will motivate you and nothing can!" I heard someone say in the darkness. It was the male, the man I always see in my dream
This time I could see his face clearly, he was super handsome and stunning also. His white long gorgeous hair fell elegantly to his waist region and he looked purely evil
"Just give up, like your mother did!" I raised my head when he said the word mother
"what do you know about my mother!"
He chuckled softly and came closer to me, his face didn't show one emotion at all
"alot child, I married your mother... I'm your father!"
I couldn't believe what I was hearing at all....
"that's a lie! I'm in a dream"
"of course you are in a dream, everything here isn't real except for you and me child, from the very start Ivor left I struck you into a dream, you never left your room, you never saw those dead men pictures.... it was all illusions" he was serious and not a hint of lie showed in his words
"why?" I asked but he chuckled again and turned towards me with a scary face
"well, your mother placed a protection spell on you years ago when I was still asleep... I won't tell you everything, sometimes you need to figure it out yourself" he looked into my eyes then furrowed his brows before moving away
"I won't just stay here" I tried to stand up but I fell again, my so-called father looked at me with his hands crossed, "I will not give up! I will stand up for what is right!!" even with the tiredness I pushed on and this time my first leg went stable and the second leg cooperated.
Before I knew it, I stood up and my energy and strength came back
"awesome, you got up and actually defeated my millet sized magic, how strong!" I knew he was being sarcastic
"you won't win" I told him and this actually made him laugh
"what makes you say that?"
"hope!, hope makes me say that!" all I was saying was actually amusing to him
"you know I came in this form to talk at least for the first time, don't think I'm not powerful just because I'm going soft on you..... I will destroy your precious world and the rest others, Dracula can't stop me neither the great wizard nor prince Enorla" he was saying this with boiling anger, "not even you child, now go back to reality" with a snap of his finger...
I woke up...
"WILLIAMS WHERE ARE YOU!"
