Chapter 45
The End
The Lily took the team to the dark forest of Havila. They appeared just in time to see Duren, who had succeeded in freeing himself, about to stab Thanatos with his own sword of death which Thanatos left close to him.
Thanatos turned in time and within a blink of an eye, Thanatos took the sword from him and was about to stab him with it, when Cynthia freezes his hand, she is too weak to freeze his whole body.
Thanatos gets angry and raises Cynthia up then smashed her to the ground
Duren: (runs to meet Cynthia) Cynthia! Are you okay?
Cynthia: I am just weak. Thanatos used me and made me exhaust my strength.
Duren: Oh, Cynthia!
Cynthia: I'm sorry, Duren. I am too weak to help
Duren: No worries. My brother, Alysia and the others are here, they will help. (Thanatos upon hearing this turns to the direction of the team, he was oblivious of their presence before but smiled wickedly, he walks up to Duren)
Lydia: Duren!
Duren: (Turns but too late for him as Thanatos was about to stab him, Cynthia uses her last strength and throws a big light ball at Thanatos who falls on the ground) Cynthia!
Alysia: She can use light like me?
Kelly: She is light too. One of the gods of light
Alysia: Nice
Cynthia begins to go, her body slowing fading
Duren: Cynthia! What is happening to you?!
Cynthia: I'm going, Duren. The sky is taking me back. I can no longer be on earth, I need decades to be able to have strength and to turn back to human.
I love you Duren. So much
Duren: I love you too, Cynthia
Cynthia: Don't worry about our baby, he will be one of the stars soon. The star that will shine brightly at you from two years time, would be your son. Come closer (Duren goes closer to her face and Cynthia kisses him then fades away, Duren weeps)
At Oberon kingdom
The seer is seen rushing to the palace. He gets to the gates and the soldiers on night duty opens for him. He goes to the visitor's room and sends a guard to call the king
King Klein: (enters after some minutes) What is wrong, seer? Why come by this time of the day? It's only past midnight!
The seer:(bows) Long may you reign my king. I'm sorry for disturbing your sleep, my king but the matter is urgent
King Klein: Speak
The seer: The battle has begun. The prophecy is fulfilling. It's too sudden, your highness but it's happening already
Alysia is battling with Thanatos right now
King Klein: What? Alysia is battling Thanatos now?
Let's go, I'm going too
The seer: Your highness. I'm afraid we can't go. If I get involved, I will be making the gods and Almighty angry. It doesn't concern me
And it will be dangerous for you, your highness.
King Klein: I don't care. Alysia is the only one I have. I must help her. Take me to the battle ground
The seer: But your highness…
King Klein: Take me to the place, seer! (The seer mutters some words And the king disappears)
At Havila
Kelly: So touching! (Postinur walks up to Duren and consoles him, everyone seems to forget that Thanatos is lying on the ground)
Thanatos : (Goes stealthily to Lydia who was closer to him with her back facing him, he was about to stab her when Kelly turns and summons thunder to strike him) You are a wizard, you joined these people? Join me and I will make you second in command.
Kelly: To hell with your position
Thanatos: Hahaha. Hell is where we will both end up in
Kelly: Shut up! (Summons a tree branch from the tree Duren was tied in and ties Thanatos)
Thanatos: Enough of all these plays! (Shatters the branches and pushes Kelly into it, making him trapped in the same tree) You all better stay away. I only want to kill Alysia, then you can all live
Lydia: I don't care about your stupid promise! (Runs to him with her sword and Thanatos flings her away, making her hit her head on a stone and she faints)
Kelly: Lydia! (Mutters words but couldn't save himself) What the hell is happening!
Thanatos: I am a god, things listen to superiors. Now shut up and remain there!
Postinur: Duren, run!
Duren: I'm not going anywhere, I'm fighting too
Postinur: I say run, save yourself please.
(Duren runs away)
Alysia, come here (Thanatos takes Alysia by her hand and laughs wickedly) leave her alone!
Thanatos: What can you do? You stupid ghost?
King klein appears
King Klein: Alysia?!
Alysia: Father, what are you doing here??
Postinur: Your highness?
Thanatos: You are still alive? Thought you are dead already.
King Klein: leave my daughter alone
Thanatos: What will you do?
Postinur: Release Alysia!
Thanatos: I don't like being screamed at! (Throws Alysia to the floor and faces Postinur, King Klein runs to Alysia)
Daring, uh? (Takes his sword to stab Postinur)
Postinur: Looks like you are big for nothing. I'm already dead, you don't have power over me, god of death!
Thanatos : I know, but it will hurt you badly, hehehehe(Swings the sword at him and Postinur dodges)
Postinur: (throws fireballs at him and Thanatos keeps dodging) Hold still!
Thanatos: Hahahaha. (Postinur throws a fireball, Thanatos catches it and sends it back to Postinur who falls down)
Postinur: (on the ground in pain) How come it hit me? I'm a ghost
Thanatos: Magic powers work on ghosts too, dummy. (Appears at Alysia's back who was resting her head on her father's shoulder) Die, princess!
(Raises the sword and kills her, oh wait, it is not her blood, it is…)
Alysia: Dad!! (Cries)
King Klein: Be a good queen Alysia. (Coughs blood and dies)
Alysia: You killed my father! (Faces Thanatos in extreme rage) You killed my father!
(The dark atmosphere begins to shine brightly)
You are dead!! (Hold Thanatos by the neck and flings him)
Thanatos: Where did the strength come from?
Postinur: (gets up) Alysia don't harm yourself. (Walks up to her)
Alysia: Stand back! It's between me and him! (Postinur withdraws)
Thanatos: (Takes his sword and points it at Alysia, the sword begins to bring out dark smoke, very dark and poisonous smoke of death)
Alysia pushes her hand forward and extreme light erupts colliding with the dark smoke and both power begins to battle on which to succeed the other.
Alysia's light eventually covers the smoke and all dark areas, Thanatos falls on the ground and begins to convulse. The light side of him begins to overpower his dark side.
Kelly: What is happening?
Postinur: I think his evil side is dying. He is partly evil and partly good. The evil part is dying.
Alysia: (runs to Lydia) Sister? Sister, are you alright
Thanatos: She is fine. Just take her to bed and make her have a long rest, she will be completely fine. (Looks at Kelly and waves his hand at him, Kelly gets released)
I'm sorry. I was overcome by the dark side of myself.
I hope you all live peacefully. I will no longer kill but take peaceful any body that their life is to be taken
I am a peaceful death, I should continue being that. Keres is the evil death
I am sorry, princess,for all the pains I caused you. (Disappears with his sword of death)
Alysia: Just like that?
He disappears just like that? My mother and father are both dead. He killed them both! (Cries) He ended my happiness! (Goes to her father's body and cries)
Kelly: (with Lydia in his arms, he walks to Alysia) Aly, it's alright.
You won didn't you? What if you failed? You would have died and evil would have ruled the world. You should be grateful for that, Aly
Alysia: You are right. I should be grateful for that. Besides, Postinur once told me that what doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger.
Now I am stronger both physically and magically
Postinur: (smiles) Yes.
A light shines from the sky, Postinur is being pulled up
Kelly: What is happening?
Alysia: Postinur??
Postinur: I have fulfilled my mission on earth. I have to cross to the beyond
Alysia: No, no. Postinur you can't leave me too. You can't!
Postinur: I'm sorry. I'm really sorry, I wish I can stay, Alysia, I really wish I can.
I will be watching you from the spirit world and guiding you from there, that I promise.
Please be a good queen, rule Oberon well and live a peaceful and complete life
I love you (the sky takes him)
Alysia: Nooooo!!!! (Alysia faints)
Kelly: Aly…..
