"A price?" Elijah tried to pull the glove off, but nothing managed to pull it off, an idea formed in his head Elijah opened the door the ran to the pond. The glove was still holding onto him, he shoved his hand into the pond, and it turned a murky color he felt his arm go a blaze. The glove realised his hand slightly with that window of time Elijah pulled off the glove "The use for it is very limiting….".
'over the past 2 weeks, you've grown to become quite dependable but why haven't you used it?' Elijah looked at the pond with a grim expression, then answered, "If I can't call upon god for help, then how the hell can this piccolo even help me?…besides it could reveal my location to the Fallen of this den "
'you've become quite the planner, I see' Elijah was quiet he went over to the man-made shack,to the corner was a makeshift bed before Elijah could climb in he asked "Otto….what was the oath you broke…"
'…..I see no reason in even telling you go to bed or something
"why are you still there?"
Otto asked in a confused manner, 'What do you mean?'
"why have you not abanded me like you did last time?" Elijah sat on the makeshift bed, ready for sleep, but Otto answered, 'it was getting quite boring, just watching you '

Amala's eyes fluttered awake as the morning sun hit her eyes. She dawned a nightgown it was a sliver sleek color. Amala yawned and then got up. She left her room and then went to Elliot's room,
Knock, knock, knock
she hit a total of three times, and the door was opened by a short black-haired young man "You cut your hair?" Amala asked; Elliot yawned and then added "I hate tall hair, it's annoying to take care of " Elliot answered.
Amala went about her daily routine. She would jog through the streets for an hour then once she came back to the church, she would do some combat training. After shes finished, Amala would go to her favorite restaurant and eat till she was full.
The Saturday morning was very sunny even without the lights on in the church, it still felt like they were on Amala walked around, she was heading to Bargis office when she spotted Edmund she waved to him, Edmund walked up to her then asked with a serious expression "have you seen Elijah?…i haven't seen him all day usually, at this time, he would be in the library I checked in with the others and they haven't seen him"
Amala's expression grew serious, then strode to Elijah's room she slowly opened the door she opened it to find a normal room. Strangely, nothing was out of place (… something is wrong here …i just can't...!). Amala felt a new presence in the room that wasn't there earlier she looked around the room but saw nothing "did you find something?" Edmund asked (some small amounts of spirituality was used here ….Elijah wouldn't have any reason to use any of the spells he learned) Amala walked out of the room the strided to Bargi's office
Bargi held a theory book it was about a den that explains how time passes differently in the den than the outside world he was about to turn the page when he heard a knock "Come in" he spoke with a calm demeanor, he looked up his gaze met Amalas she had a worried look on her face she spoke softly "something happened to Elijah he is not in his room or anywhere in the, I checked his room there's this-" Bargi raised from his seat then walked through he door Amala followed closely behind
Bargi grabbed the doorknob, his eyes widened he pushed the door open with enormous force. The door almost fell off. Bargi looked around the room he saw a small couch (there was someone here..could it be them?!) Bargi went to the bedroom. The sheets were trashed around it looked as if there was a struggle
Bargi closed his eyes his senses increased he could see the memories of what had happened in the room he could see someone with reddish hair looking over Elijah's body "What did you see?" Amala inquired, at a high Asscenion of the Guardian oath they can sense the memories of those that they have connected with it doesn't have to be a long friendship they could just share a drink, and he will be able to see the memories but he can't see everything, (we are only Guardians….) Bargi felt his understanding of himself deepen
"Since you an Asscenion 4 you have a better experience and your reading ability is much better than mine" Amala spoke her voice flustered, Bargi spoke with a rough voice " The witches of dawn marked him with that note then they took him, I'm heading to the inquisitor headquarters inform Cassian what happened," Bargi said he walked out of the room.
Amala stood there for a few minutes then walked out of the room, she headed down the long hallway she found Cassian talking to someone "The witches of dawn attacked…they took Elijah" Cassian had a shocked expression on his face then spoe under his breath "how did they get in?"
….
Two hours passed Bargi came back with two high-level members from the inquisitor, Victoria and Bruce, a tall man with black hair, he had a pair of ember eyes his frame was of an old man in his thirties, and his skin was a pale color. Victoria,a beautiful tall woman. She had ember eyes, her hair was a brunette color, and her skin was a soft beige.
Victoria wore a purple blouse with a tight pair of pants followed with a belt around her waist Bruce wore a black button-down shirt with a brown coat and leather top heat with a wooden cane in his right hand, his pants were an ordinary black color
"they are gonna help us with the investigation of the witches of dawn, they have been tracking that group for a while, but they managed to break through our defenses…" Victoria walked up to Amala and then spoke.
"I haven't seen you in a long time, how is your brother?" Victoria asked, holding Amala's hand in a few seconds she started to feel her fingers slowly burning Amal didn't shake at the feeling she simply ignored it. she then spoke "Thank you for the training you have given to me and my brother" Amala stated, after she finished the sentence Victoria realised Amalas hand and then went to bruces side hen joined in on the conversation that Bargi and Bruce were having
a few minutes passed by
"From what we have gathered from the cult, they have rankings called seats. One of the top 10 must've found a way to enter the church without being noticed by any of the alarms….they must have someone from the walker oath," Bargi exclaimed, Bruce rubbed his chin and then asked Amala in a rough voice.
"you have spent a lot of time with him, have you given anything to him that we could somehow track?" Amala paused for a few seconds then her eyes burst with the realization "Of course!, because of the panic of him being missing I overlooked the fact I gave him a piccolo….it has the ability to always be heard no matter where it is …..the only way it can not be heard is if .." Victoria cut off Amala as she finished her sentence "if they are in a den….but which one?"
the group spent the next few hours discussing what type of den the witches of dawn might have placed Elijah in "In the den time passes differently, so how can we be sure that he is alive?" Bruce asked, Amala and Bargi looked at each other she was about to answer when Elliot walked in
"I think I might have got something. I searched through our documented dens and found that most of the evil cults stay clear of the high amount of corruption. we have only documented two high-level dens" Elliot explained the group all exchanged looks at each other in disbelief
"why would they even go to a den in the first place?" Victoria asked, Elliot chuckled then spoke "Why do you think none of us have ever ventured into a high-level den?" Victoria thought for a moment then said "The only time we would go in is if we had a …mission…..but why would their mission involve Elijah?" she asked, it was slowly becoming darker outside the room was filled with tension Amala slowly observed the clock hanging on the wall it said 3:09 pm.
"I don't know why they would need him, the only reason I could think of was when he got tagged by them…I say we break into teams one will research the dens while one other group will search for any probable reason"
