~~CARMELA'S POV ~~
I opened my eyes just to find myself in the same room I have always seen myself in ever since I came into this castle but the only difference now is that it was a bit brighter.
I couldn't see everything but a huge portrait on the wall with a huge snake and snake-like dragon with a crown on its head which reminded me of the first time I saw Zamiel in his demonic form.
Both creatures formed a circle around a Wicca symbol which had a huge eye in the middle but there were symbols around it that I couldn't understand. The symbols at the top of the symbol below the dragons feet suddenly turned into spelling
" Sun " I read out.
The next symbol also did the same thing and in no time they were no longer symbols but words..
" Jupiter, Venus, Moon, Mercury.." were the only words I could read as the other words were in ancient writing.
Below the portraits were two swords clashing and an inscription that I couldn't read as well..
There were also drawings of sapphire, ruby, onyx, paradox, and moonstone each in a ring form..
Everything about the painting seemed realistic but something about the rings was off and I couldn't place my hand on it..
I stretched out to touch the painting when..
BOOM !!!
There was suddenly a loud explosion.
I flinched a bit and made a thorough check around to see the cause of the sound but found nothing as everything was in order..
Taking in another deep breath I touched the portrait again and I felt electrocuted, as I felt my soul being drawn into it
" I just want two lovely kids " I heard a woman's voice
" Me too and this room would belong to them " I heard a familiar male voice
" Lumiel " She said and there was suddenly a heavy wave sound..
Although she was backing me,It felt as if I knew her, I've met her and also been in the situation she was in
" Stay in here "
" No I want to be with you " The lady persisted holding his hand
" For the sake of our child please stay in hear okay" He pleaded and I could tell that the man who seem to be her husband was worried and stressed
" But... "
" Shh no if's or but I'll be back "
I heard the man say but before I could register anything else there was another explosion which threw the woman across the room
" LUNA !!! " I heard him screamed as he rushed towards her in the midst of the fire
" T..take this give it to her, " the lady said
" Fon't... "
" No I have to do this, I…I always knew that the rings of destruction never belonged to me in this life tumd although you tried your best to convince me..
Give it to me when I come back so I can end all these " She said with a pain filled smile
"And what about me? You know... "
" Everything would be fine, and I am not going away for ever..
It..it might take time but I'll always find my way back to your side even if you want me nor not…And make..make sure you're well prepared because I wouldn't go easy on you next time.. " She traced her hand down his chin with a smile
The connection between I and the portrait suddenly began fading and Although I could only hear their voices I was still curious to know more about what they were speaking about and who they were..
I closed my eyes and tried meditating more when suddenly I was thrown across the room by a huge force
I opened my eyes hoping to have broken a bone or two but luckily I landed on a bed and there seem to be someone lying on it..
Her clothes were from ancient times and from her attire one could tell she was a queen
" AHHH !!! " I screamed noticing that it was a skeleton dressed up in a royal outfit or maybe the skeleton of a dead royal member
" CARMELA! " I could hear Xavier call but he was nowhere in the room
" Carmela " his screams became louder and my eyes suddenly flew open as I came into an upright position.
I looked around to find worry visible on the face of everyone standing around my bed
" What's wrong? " I asked painting heavily as I felt sweat drip down my chin
" What's wrong?!..The maids have been trying to wake you up for the past two hours and you're asking what's wrong ? " He said screaming halfway into his sentence
" I ... "
" You what? we're you even in this universe ... " Everything Xavier kept saying kept falling on deaf ears as my dream started replaying in my head I could hear everything those unknown people said and the curiosity about their identity was getting the better of me..
The scene that happened between I and Zamiel last night suddenly flooded in and I wanted to slap my self hard for not going throw with the mission at that time..
Why did I feel as if I was going to regret my actions and that it was going to hurt me as much as it was going to hurt him?
"Are you even listening to me? "
" Huh ? "
" Just great you... "
" Lumiel… " I said the first word that came to mind more of a whisper
If the couples I saw in my dream wanted to name the place they were going to keep their kids 'Lumiel '
That means it's a place and I can find it
"I..I want to go to Lumiel " I spoke up
" What? "
" Where is Lumiel located at ? " I asked and there was suddenly a confused looked on everyone's face..
I had the feeling I wouldn't get anything from them so I made my way toward the door but bumped into something muscular..
I looked up to find Zamiel staring at me with indifference in his eyes not as if I cared but it felt heartbreaking seeing him look down on me like that
" Where are you heading to ? " he asked
"To find Lumiel "
Wait that wasn't what I wanted to say
I tried correcting myself but Zamiel was nowhere to be found and I suddenly felt a strange flow of energy in me
It was as if I was being controlled and things started turning blurry I tried moving to grab onto something but I couldn't move my foot
" CARMELA !!! " I could hear Xavier call out to me but I had no strength left to respond and tell him how I was feeling and everything suddenly become dark
