Shira Pov:
We are now standing in front of an abandoned building. By the looks of it, I don't think someone will be inside a place like this which look as though it might collapse any moment.
Zozo are you sure this is the right place?
Yes Master, This is the right place. She might be using some kind of illusion spell. We might just need to find the source and get rid of it. We should be able to see the entrance afterwards.
I don't know how this is happening but I can see myself moving to a corner and I followed. I saw her bend by a tree and pull something that looks like a handle on it after which I could not see her anymore.
This is strange, it feels as though I have been here before. Like am showing myself how to get rid of the illusion spell. I pulled the handle and i immediately got that dreadful feeling, like something is terribly wrong.
Master, I think we should leave. I can feel that as well, seems we should not have come here. Zozo said frantically, urging me to leave.
Shira, what is wrong? You seem pale all of a sunden. Are you alright? I heard Lance asked concerned.
Am fine. This might just be part of the spell, to keep intruders away. I have come this far, I cannot turn away now.
The building is now visible, Everything about this place feels wrong. I have this deep urge to run away from here, and not enter. I don't know why I am feeling this way but I will not yield. I will not be scared away so easily.
I told the guards that came with us to stand guard outside and not let anyone in or out of the place. Then me, Pellow and Lance entered.
The place has a long corridor with doors at each sides facing each other. I keep walking forward till I get to a door, As I stand in front of it, I could feel her presence already. She is behind this door.
I pulled the door open, and darkness welcomed me. Was i wrong afterall, because why would she be in a dark room such as this.
I cast the illumination spell and the room comes to light, I could see her now sitting on a throne in a corner of the room. She did something with her hand and the light in the room dimmed a bit.
Easy with the lights she said, it irks my eyes. You are all welcome to my humble abode, I have been expecting you despite the rude entrance.
Who are you? and why are you after me and my people? Why all the killings? I asked her.
I know you have a lot of questions and I will respond in due time but I also have lots of mine as well.
As you already know I am a vampire and I also have sorcery talent. And as we all know I don't belong here, and I know of a fact that it is you Shira, the supposed supreme highness of this world is the one that locked me out of my world. I may not know much of anything but I have this deep rooted hatred for you and the fact that you have the same face as me vexes me the more. I will do anything to destroy you.
The amount of hatred in her voice is ominous, I cannot believe someone with my face can be this venomous.
I have never met you before I said feeling confused.. I did not even know of your existence till I saw you in my vision. Now you tell me I am the one that locked you in this world, help me make sense of that.
I have been watching you all since you were born, you and your so called brothers. She said still seated on her throne, and she made no move standing up. You are powerful, I will give you that. Wielding so much power to change the order of the world.
You only fail to remember that for shifting the balance of nature, there is always a price to pay. Hence your magical dementia.
Not to worry, I have not been idling about since I got here. At first i wanted to destroy you and everything you hold dear. But then i realize I actually need your blood to activate this gem so I could go back to my world. Hence the reason you are still standing and breathing right now in front of me.
You bluff, I can sense your fear. Your story might be true but you are scared of me. I can feel it.
Me scared of you? She cackled. And in the next instance she is next to Lance whispered something in his ears and he immediately lost his self awareness. He was just standing rooted in place, looking lifeless and Pellow disappeared into the shadows. The whole thing seem to happen in a blink of an eye.
Now it might be true that am scared of you but I know your weakness. I can destroy Lance with a flick of my hand she said now standing in front of me, her eyes holding so much hatred and anger.
I do not know who you are or what you know about me. But you just made the worst mistake of your life touching the people I love. I said using my magic to choke her, if she dies.. her hold on Lance looses effect afterall. But immediately I could feel myself choking as well.
Hahaha she laughed so loud, my ears almost bled. Don't be too shocked she said, I also found out the last time we met, when I was choking you. I could hold in the pain a little longer because of my rage,but had to drink a lot of blood afterwards.
If you hurt me, you hurt. If you kill me, you die. That sucks for both of us, because I really wanted to kill you so bad. now yield and give me a drop of your blood so I can get out of your hair.
Master, this could be a trick, don't trust her. I heard Zozo said in my head. I could sense so much evil intentions oozing from her.
You do not trust me? I can understand your plight. I would feel the same if I were in your shoes but the more you delay, the more you loose your beloved brother. Your beloved guard dog is currently lost in his own shadows, how ironic is that? And Lance, poor Lance is currently withering away.
I am in no hurry, so you can as well take your time. But Time is a luxury you cannot afford at the moment, She said walking toward her throne.
I am tempted to illuminate the room with sunlight as I have noticed her avoiding the ray of light seeping in from the window but I know deep down that could kill her and as it stands due to whatever reason, if she dies I die. So that might not be a good decision.
You can have a drop of my blood. I said and that seem to please her as she turns and immediately appear right in front of me. That is a wise decision. She said poking my flesh and drawing a drop of my blood and laying it on the gem in her hand.
