Chapter 34 - Goddess With Honor | Chapter 34

In the badlands, Hunter and Oliva are waiting for their son to come home. It's been over two weeks and he still hasn't got home yet. Hunter is sitting out on the porch, looking out into the mist with the shadows of the mountains surrounding them. Oliva is in the kitchen, looking at the stove trying to figure out what to cook for her and Hunter. The anger builds in Hunter's eyes as the tears build up in Oliva's. Hunter screams and it echoes through the badlands and the mainland. Kai looks out the window and then back at Rain. "The game has begun" Back in the building beside Kai's house Aaron is cuddled up to Rose on the pull-out bed. He awakes as he hears glass shatter, a little kid with short blond hair runs past the window. Aaron sits up and opens the door, the child runs inside and hides in a dark corner. He turns around fast to see the child, they are shaking in the corner. He slowly walks up to the child and sees ice-blue eyes. "Winter?" he says as he cuts on the light. The child curls up into a ball, Aaron puts his hand on the child and turns them towards him. It is Winter, Aaron grabs her "What happened to you?" he says as he starts to cry. Her hair was cut and her body was completely turned into a boy's form. Winter looks up at him "Lucas did this to me..." The rage fell through Aaron's body "Were is Renesmae?" he said as Rose woke up she rubbed her eyes and looked at Aaron holding the child "Aaron, who is that?" he turned to her "It's Winter..." Rose ran to her and picks her up "Aaron, she is shaking and cold." He nods, Rose looks back at her "Winter, Honey where did you come from?" She hides her face in Rose's shoulder "She is scared to death Aaron." He sighs and looks at Rose. "Stay here with her, this shit ends now!" Aaron yells as Rose lies down with Winter. She is still shaking badly, Aaron walks into the house grabs his jacket off the chair, and looks up the stairs. "I'm sorry Kai, but I need them to suffer just as I have." Aaron leaves the house walking into the darkness. Back in the Outlands, Hunter is thinking about what he must do. He looks at Oliva, "I have to call him..." Oliva looks at him "Who?" he grins and looks at her "My brother" She looks at him confused, and he walks into the basement of their house. There lies a portal, the only one from Earth to Hell directly, he types in the number 6666162368 on the side panel and waits for his brother Ihys to come forward. A man steps forward with long red horns and white hair, purple eyes, and a hood covering his face. Hunter looks at him "Hello Brother." The hooded man steps towards Hunter with a smile, "Long time, little Hunt" Hunter smiles "That it has been, So I need your help with some stuff." Hunter sighs and looks upstairs, "Me and Oliva, mostly me but I won't let him get away with this." The smile on Ihy's fades to a snarl, " I've seen, and heard it all. No need to explain little brother" Hunter grins "All right then, But I do want you to meet someone." He looks upstairs, sees Olivia, and teleports into her shadow. "Hello there, Olivia" She looks at this "man" up and down. "Who are you?" she asks as Hunter walks up the stairs, to stand near them. "My name is Kane, eldest son of Lucifer. Brother to little Hunter over there" Hunter looks at him "Stop calling me little Ihys" he exclaimed. Oliva glances at Ihys "So you're the older brother? That's kinda funny considering nobody has ever spoken of you" she proceeds to say glaring at Hunter. "I do prefer to work in the shadows Oliva, let's say… it's where I thrive" "That is right," Hunter says as he walks and stands beside Oliva. Kane steps back and disappears into a mist that fills the room, from the black fog hundreds of purple eyes glisten with insanity and hunger. Then as soon as it happened the room was clear and Kane was sitting down at a window with his legs crossed. Oliva looks at Hunter concerned and confused but doesn't say anything. Instead, she walks outside and Hunter follows "We have to do what's right, we can't let him get away with killing Lucas, Oliva." She looks at him "Hunter it doesn't matter! It isn't right!" Hunter smacks her in the face. "How dare you fucking say that!? He was our only son and Aaron fucking killed him! Does that not upset you!?" She looks at the floor and doesn't say anything. Kane steps between them pushing them apart with shadow made hands, "Let us not bicker about the morality! Aaron has killed, and deserves death. Or better yet, a visit to my home…." Hunter growls "No she should be upset! That was her only child!" She looks up at him "So what?! Hm? It was your child! He caused all these problems just like you do!" Hunter hits her in the face, "Don't you ever talk to me like that! Do you understand me?" She nods. Kane looks between the two and proceeds to walk through them, " I have never felt before, and I never will. This is pointless, did you summon me to be a counselor or a hunter?" Hunter looks at him, Ihys "Shut up for a goddamn minute, I did summon you for something but as of right now I have to deal with Mr.Priss." He says as he grabs her wrist and pushes her inside. He turns and looks back at Kane "What?" Kane lowers his hood to show his full face, his face twitching and shifting, "You dare speak to me like this!?! May I remind you of why I am the strongest?" "I'm well aware of why Ihys, but the point is when it comes down to her. You wouldn't ever understand since you can't." Kane smiles and looks at Hunter, "Oh but brother I know, I've seen, I've heard. I've entered both of your minds, seen everything even your suppressed memory's. Which I will say brother, are mostly me.." He looks at Kane "Listen, I don't mean to be an ass about this. but I'm pissed the fuck off. That was my only son and since Oliva is a Kawaii she can't have anymore kids with me." Kane looks at Hunter with a sad look, " You have had a child hunter, I shall never get that honor, my touch is fatal, I breath death and exhale madness, be lucky for what you have had Hunt" Hunter looks at him "You are right as normal, but do me a favor as of right now. Watch Oliva while I go look for someone, she has a habit of running off to the Mainlands." " Brother you should know more then anyone no one escapes my gaze, as we speak I have been watching everything, all times. You know right?" Hunter nods and walks off into the fog. In the house Oliva is crying in her room pacing back and forth."Why so emotional now?" Says Kane, sitting on the roof upside down playing with a bullet. Oliva looks up "You wouldn't understand" She sits down the bed. " Oh but I do is the thing Oliva" She looks up at him "How would you know?" she says in a scratchy voice. Kane looks at her in the eyes and says," Do you really want to know Oliva? Might make working with me…. Unsettling" She looks at him "You know your eyes are really pretty" she proclaims with a smile. Kane replied, " That's a first… normally it's all ahhh make the eyes go away" he said with a chuckle. Oliva looks at his eyes and then his hair. "Come here please." she says as she pats her hand on the bed. Kane floats down and lands on the farthest side of the bed, the sheets wilting where they touched his skin. Oliva looks at him "Ugh men." She says as she crawls towards him and sits on her knees. She goes to reach her hand out to touch his hair. Kane suddenly shifted over in a heartbeat, " I wouldn't recommend touching me, it may be the most unpleasant thing you've felt, and likely the last" Oliva smiles "Do you trust me?" Kane looks blankly into her eyes, " I don't need to trust if I know your intentions Oliva" "Hm fine." She touches his hair around the side of his head. Her hand turns a little red but that's all that happens. "See, I told you silly." Kane looks at her and let's out a laugh, " Your tough I'll give you that, but do know I did add a little shadow on before you touched me, very less potent but still enough to kill" Oliva smiles "It's so soffttttt." She shreks and continues to play with his hair. " This is new to me, no one has had the strength to be this close, may I ask you a favor?" Oliva nods " May we share blood?" Oliva looks at him "We aren't married or related so oni blood link isn't possible?" she asks in confusion. Kane shakes his head and smiles, " Yes I am oni, but I am more then just oni Oliva. I am what they call, unique" Oliva looks at him "You know, I'm not just oni either I am also a Thammuz demon and a Kawaii Demon. But may I ask why do you want to do that?" she replies with a smile. Kane looks at her with a small smile, " As you said your not just oni, but have demon blood too, I am the same but oni with madness, I cannot feel. So to those who I share blood I get a glimpse of emotion, and you a glimpse into the uncharted realm of chaos" Her eyes open widely "How about a give you a power grant?" He looks at her with a steady face, " A power grant? Hmm maybe, though I have had only luck in shared blood I guess I can give this lent of power a try" She smiles "Okay, so how long do you want it?" He looks up to the ceiling and then to the woods hunter walked off to, "Five minutes, five should be plenty for me, though when I share blood I do retain it for 24 hours" Oliva rolls her eyes "Just tell me how long you really want to have it silly." " I am contempt with 5 minutes" He says with certainty. "Okay then I'm going to give you Third Eye power grant which means it just opens your third eye, the oni can increase its area of influence, causing disasters on a much larger scale. Is that okay with you?" He looks at her and laughs' " I'm really only interested in emotions Oliva, three eyes you say? Interesting, I am fine with it" he says with a smirk. "Silly it doesn't matter what power I give you, You will still feel emotions from them. You'll see." She says with a smile, she slowly starts to chant in oni as her eyes glow a bright red. She touches the center of his forehead. After about 5 seconds her eyes go back to normal and she pulls her hand down they are starting to shake at a fast rate. Kane jumps to his feet nearly hitting the ceiling, " Ah yes! It's been so long, though it doesn't feel as strong as blood but emotion is emotion! I feel alive! Um you okay?" He asks with a worried face. She looks at him and smiles "I will be fine, I think. But it's great to see you happy!" She smiles and hugs him. The room fills with the sound of sizzling as their skin connects. Kane jumps back and apologizes suddenly, " I forgot to tell you, when I undergo and get feelings everything is heightened, if I didn't put up protection you would have most definitely been burnt up" She looks at him "Come here, and just be you? No extra stuff, just trust me on this." Kane approaches her and embraces her. Her eyes grow a light red and she hugs him back "See, it doesn't hurt me silly. You can hug me and I can hug you, no pain for either of us." She smiles. He smiles back at her, but then it faded to a small frown, "I do have to admit one thing, this is not my real body, but a puppet of me. I rarely show my true self" She puts her hand on his cheek and looks at him "You can be yourself around me okay?" He looks at her and says brightly, " Okay!" And turns into the embodiment of madness and insanity for a split second. "There that's me" She smiles and lays her forehead on his "I might could get used to that after awhile." she giggles. He looks at her and smiles, " we can find out, do warn you people who get used to insanity become it" he says with a sigh. She looks at him "Somethings are worth handling." she says as her face turns red. He sees her face and grins, " Hey I can do that too!" And promptly turns himself tomato red. She smiles "That's cute." She takes a step back and looks at his hair in the light. "Why does your hair like shimmer in the light?" He laughs and shakes his hair, " it has a mind of its own, just kidding I'm more space then physical, I merge better with shadows then light so it fights the light" Oliva nods "That's kinda cool in a way." He grins and walks across the room, over his shoulder he says, " Yeah I know I'm cool" with a grin. She laughs and runs up to him and jumps on his back wrapping her arms and legs around him "Ha, I got you!!!" she giggles.He laughs and spins in circles till she falls off still laughing. She smiles and covers her face "That was fun, It's been awhile since Iv'e had any fun." She uncovers her face and sits on the floor. He looks down and smiles back at her, " It may have been a while for you but it's a first for me" She looks at him "Really? Have you not ever like felt loved?" She asks as she stands up. He looks at her with a straight face and says, " Well it's kinda hard to be loved when your dads fucking Lucifer and your brothers Hunter. Not to mention you know, lack of emotions" He ends with an eye roll. She looks at him "Well, I could change that." She says as she kisses his cheek. He stands there startled, then laughs, "Well that's a first to! You know your the only person I've met to be able to handle my being" She smiles "I'm glad I could be the first." She hugs him.He hugs back and laughs, " I could get used to this to be honest, not being able to feel is dreadful" She smiles and walks into the kitchen "You don't have much longer so let me do this real quick." She snaps her fingers and two plates appear one with fresh raspberries and the other one with fresh deer meat cooked. "Here you go honey" she says as she leans up against the counter. Kane looks at the plates and then back at her and smiled brightly, " You knew my favorites! You know your unique Olvia, I've never felt this way with any of my other blood bonds" She smiles "You make me feel genuinely happy Kane. It really has been awhile since I have felt like this before." She smiles. He grins at her, and looks down shyly, "Not many people know about this, but there is a blood bond that lasts forever. It's an old family secret, whoever I bond with I can feel their power and their emotions while they live. I've never though of doing it because it bc it's meant for those you truly loved. But maybe… with you?.." Oliva blushs "With me?" Kane blushes too, " I am sorry, just I have never felt this much to one person before… I apologize if it was inappropriate" She smiles "No it's fine, it really is. I'm starting to like you too!" She smiles and hugs him tightly. He hugged her back smiling brightly, but then it fell to a frown. He stepped back with a plain face and thanked her for the power grant. She smiles small on her face "Your welcome, maybe one day blood link wouldn't be a bad idea." She looks out the kitchen window. "I would like the idea of the bloodlink to be true, but maybe it's too soon." He looks up suddenly and puts his hood back on, "He has returned with our guest, figured it was her" Oliva looks at him "Oh my God, that's my sister!" Oliva runs out of the house to them and Hunter stops hers by pushing her down to the ground. "Don't you even think about it, you don't want to see her die again do you?" Oliva looks at him "No" soon enough Oliva realizes that the ground was soft. Renesmae looks at Oliva crying, she has tape over her mouth and her hands are tied up behind her. Kane walk out the house and stared blankly at the scene, " That is enough Hunter, Remember your place" He snaps his fingers and Renesmae and Oliva are bye his side with blankets of shadow. The bindings on Renesmae are gone and the tape evaporated. "What do you think your doing Ihys?" Hunter asks. Kane responds coldly, " Whatever I please little brother, it seems to me your opposed to me? Why so angry brother?" Hunter laughs "Oliva and Renesmae both are fucking sluts I'll treat them how I want Ihys!" Kane laughed a loud and echoing laugh, " So it is that way is it? To treat those how you see them? Hunter want to know what I see right now? A feeble, weak, power hungry little boy. Should I take a leaf from your book and treat you that way, with discipline?" "Your not our dad Kane!" He yells. He stands up to his full height and responds coldly, " I am not your father, I am not your guardian, nor am I your hunter. The weak listen to the strong, you want to prove me wrong little brother? Want to challenge me?" Hunter grins and pulls the baseball bat from behind his back. "I've been needing a challenge." Kane lifted his harm and formed a great long sword from the shadows, " If I'm being honest I do not believe I even need to swing this too win" "Take your best shot Ihys" he says standing still. Hunter lunges at Kane with his bat ready to swing. Kane side steps his blow and watches him whip around. "Stop running you bitch" Kane looks at him and says," Running?" Hunter reaches Kane and brings his bat down on him. As the bat reaches Kanes head it falls through him turning to rot, suddenly Hunter is hit with a wave of darkness. He falls to his knees shaking gripping his temple in pain. "What happened brother? Where'd that confidence go?" Oliva holds Renesmae in her arms as she cries, Oliva watches Hunter get the shit beat out of him. But doesn't seem to have any care in the world for him. She turns around and takes Renesmae inside to the bathroom to get her face cleaned up from crying. Hunter groans in pain as he looks at Ihys. "You won't beat what's coming" he says as he turns into a little field mouse and disappears into the fog. Kane walks into the house and walks to Oliva holding Renesmae. "I'm sorry for that, but it would had happened eventually. He's always been so hot headed" Oliva looks at him "I know, but I don't really care about him. I'm glad he's gone, now maybe my sister will be safe." She says as she takes Renesmae to Oliva's room to get some sleep. She closes the door and walks to the living room and sits down on the couch. "I could had killed him, but I figured not in front of the child" Kane says dissolving his blade. She looks at him "I know, but still the point is Renesmae might be safe now. At least I'm hoping she will be." She gets up and goes into the kitchen to make some food. "What do you plan on now for the kid? He's going to be bam you know" Kane says following her into the kitchen. "I know, I know... Renesmae isn't a child you know? She's 17 I think, but still. Things will be okay as long as the people on the Mainlands stay over there." she says as she grabs two bowls and pours in chicken noodle soup. She puts them in the microwave and waits. " We cannot leave it up to fate" Kane says watching the timer click down. Oliva grabs them out of the microwave when the timers end. She takes one to Renesmae and sits the other one down on the table "Just sit down and eat" she says as she tussles her hair and leans on the counter. Kane reaches for the bowl and takes a spoonful, " Thank you, but my brother holds a grudge longer then anyone I know. We must plan our next move." Oliva looks around "Kane just eat for now I'll figure it out later, this is very stressful for me. I'm sorry, but I have to do what best for me and my sister I will come up with a plan just let me have some time." She says as she turns and walks out the back door. She leans over the banister and takes a few deep breaths. Kane follows and rests his hands on the railing. The wood sizzling at his touch, " I apologize for the rush, I do understand the need to have thinking time. I will be in Hunters former room, call to me when you are ready" Renesmae looks out the window and thinks about Jade. She decides to leave to go see him. She teleports to his house but no one is there, Not Aaron, Winter, or Rose. She walks around and heads up to her room, there is still blood everywhere from when Lucas took her. She sighs deeply and lays down on Jades side of the bed. "I miss him deeply." Back in the Outlands Oliva is trying to come up with a plan but her mind is blank from everything that just happened. Kane enters his room and sits down on the bed, he crosses his legs and closes his eyes searching for his brother, "Ah found you little mouse, your lucky they were here. You don't know it but they saved your life"
