Chereads / THE TRUE LEADER / Chapter 40 - FOURTY

Chapter 40 - FOURTY

UNKNOWN LOCATION.....

Liam is seen in his throne room, with a big black book floating on thin air as the book emitted black mist as though it was on flames. He was seemingly studying the book when Linda materialized into the throne room followed by three hooded people. The three people were cloaked in a long black robe, with hoods on their heads, their faces unseen.

"My Lord, they are here" Linda informed Liam who was still concentrated on the huge black book.

"Hmm" He responded and only then did he raise his head, as he glanced at the hooded people before turning to Linda.

"Good, you may leave" He waved his hands at Linda who immediately materialized out of the room.

"Sire we are at your service" The hooded people bowed to Liam.

"Take off the hood, let me see my loyal servants" Liam rested on the throne.

"Yes sire" They replied simultaneously, taking off the hood, revealing their faces. The one in the middle was a female, had green eyes and blue hair, the one to the left was a young male, had blue eyes and black hair, the last one, seemingly the youngest was also a male, had grey eyes and blonde hair. They looked mythical as they all had an intricate mark on their forehead. 

"Well don't stare at me, introduce yourselves" Liam demanded.

"Sire my name is Belinda, I am the leader of my coven. I am an elemental black witch, the strongest of my coven, I can control elements such as fire, water, wind, lightning, and ice, these are my loyal assistants" Belinda knelt on one knee, as she bowed in respect.

"Sire, my name is Seth, the second strongest and next in command after my leader Belinda, I am a time black witch, I can open portals to different time and can teleport through different dimensions, in rapid speed" Seth introduced, still bowing his head.

"Sire, my name is Chase, I am the youngest and the third strongest of my coven, I am third in command after my leader Belinda and Seth, I am a spirit black witch, I can summon past spirits and souls to do my bidding" Chase bowed, and knelt on one knee.

"Interesting, so I now have elemental, time and spirit witches, my plan is falling into place. I can taste the victory already" Liam thought as he studied them.

"So are you willing to do anything for me, even if it cost your life?" Liam questioned.

"Sire, we swear our loyalty to you, we will fight for you and do all you ask of us" Belinda said, still bowing.

"I see, so you have a coven, how many are in your coven" Liam asked, directing the question to Belinda.

"Sire, we are 150, including us three" Belinda answered immediately.

"I don't need any other black witch, I need just the black witches of your kind, that is the elemental, spirit and time witch" Liam looked down at Belinda awaiting her response.

"Sire, that is exact type of witches in my coven. We only consist of elemental, spirit and time witches" Belinda responded.

"NICE" Liam whispered as an evil glint passed through his eyes.

"S....sire, If I may ask?" Belinda requested.

"Go on" Liam permitted.

"S...sire, why d...do you need a....all these witches" Belinda stuttered.

"Well, you have a time witch, why not ask him?" Liam suggested.

"Well, Sire, my time witches can only open portals and teleport through dimensions but they don't see the future nor do they see the past. They are not up to that rank." Belinda informed.

"Oh really, then you are of no use, I should just....wait, I need your powers for something else, Urghh" Liam said quenching the black fire ball in his hand.

"Th.....thank you Sire, Thank you for sparing my life" Seth stammered already terrified.

"I did not spare your life boy, I spared your powers, your life means nothing to me, don't get your hopes up, okay for your question.....my darling, Belinda, my loyal assistant will answer you, for now, just know that I need your powers.....Linda!!!" Liam called as he finished talking.

"My Lord, you called" Linda materialized almost immediately.

"Yes, take my visitors to their room, make them feel at home and explain their purpose to them. I don't want to be disturbed" Liam commanded and disappeared immediately without waiting for a response.

"Yes, My Lord" Linda turned to the three witches....."Follow me" She said shortly as she started walking out of the door........

IN A DARK CELL.....

A woman, tattered and and bruised is seen, bound by black thick liquid, she was drained and tired but she was smiling as she whispered,

"She has arrived, she has arrived".........

BACK AT JASON'S PACK, IN JASON'S ROOM.....

Selena and Jason were discussing Selena's recent dream as they cuddled in the bed.

"So you are saying that it was when you saw me injured that you lost control of the dark side?" Jason asked.

"Yes, exactly, I was fine, with no dark powers but when I saw you injured, I lost it, my eyes turned black and my hair glowing white, I started feeding on the essence of the monsters and I eventually killed Liam but I didn't stop there, I continued killing every one, the warriors especially, I was not my self, I was smiling at the destruction I was causing and I was about to finish everyone when you stabbed me with a strange dagger. Not the regular kind of dagger, It was glowing white and you made it glow white, you chanted something on it and then...." Selena took a deep breath and paused.

"Its okay, I would never do that. But I got something from what you just said. If you can somehow not get too angry and try to control your emotions, you won't loose it. You just have to stay calm. And I have a feeling he will try to make you angry on purpose that you will loose it" Jason reasoned with Selena.

"But you know I can't possibly stay calm in a war" Selena said wide eyed.

"We'll have to try and help you control it" Jason said.

"Yeah, and I know the perfect person for the job" Selena looked at Jason, grinning.

"Who" Jason asked suspiciously.

"Well guess" Selena smiled mischievously.

"I don't know, tell me" Jason pleaded.

"My Aunt, Clara" Selena shouted in an 'obviously' tone.

"That's actually a great Idea, but how do we get her here" Jason questioned.

"I know a way, now let's get some sleep, tomorrow's gonna be a big day of training for me" Selena cuddled Jason.

"Selena I can't help but think there would be a war" Jason looked at Selena.

"Calm down sweetie, when that bridge comes we will cross it" Selena assured him.

"Okay, if you say so" Jason muttered as he cuddled Selena too........
