AN: The setting of the story is a blend of Earth's 1900s and magic. Everything is advanced except communication. Information is still passed on using messenger birds.
From here on most of the time it will be Michael Bennett's POV. The third party POV will also be mixed in. So I hope you can understand.
At midnight something unusual happened, Cecilia drew a formation on the wall and bit her finger. Then dripped a drop of blood in the formation.
In no time six girls wearing different night gowns appeared in the room. Cecilia then erected a blue barrier which surrounded the whole house.
" This is the deadline date for all of us to find a cure,of all the cases present he is our only hope." Cecilia coldly stated. "I have tested him for the last seven years making sure that we don't fail. So you can rest assured.
" But Cecilia,we both know what happens if is successful. We will have to share him, it's better for me to sleep for one hundred years than disgrace myself." The lady in blue said solemnly.
"Calm down Athena, we all know she is doing this for all of us. Don't mind her Cecilia, what can we do to make this work." A girl in pink sweetly encouraged.
"Well it's easy,I have prepared everything except your blood. If you can give me a vial containing your blood and I will do the rest." Cecilia ensured.
All the girls conjured a vial containing different coloured vials. Cecilia then lead the way to Michael's room, where he was tied on his bed.
Cecilia then drew a dark formation beneath the bed. The formation produced a blinding red light then dimmed.
The girls form a circle and start chanting in an unknown language. The formation light bright as time went on.By the last chant the whole room was red in colour.
Cecilia then added a drop of her blood, turning the formation blue in colour. Then every girl then did the same thing, making the formation glow each time.
After the last girl dripped her blood on the formation, the formation trembled violently.
Michael start growling painfully, then the formation glowed four different colours and trembled violently.
"Ahhhhhhh!!!" Michael screamed painfully, his eyes and ears bleeding.Then he tried to break free from his bondage.
"Cecilia what's going on,why is he like this huh?" Athena asked solemnly. "I iii don't know what is happening, because I I I followed the whole procedure without making any mistake. If you don't believe me here take a look." Cecilia answered back giving Athena the procedure.
" Wait! Cecilia what type of blood did you use as foundation of the formation?" Athena asked plainly. " Well I tried using the blood of all the strongest people I know but it all failed.so I used inferno dragon blood instead. " Cecilia answered cooly.
"Ohh okay that's nice, wait what??" Athena was amazed at first but then realized something.
"Cecilia how can you be so childish, for the sake of your own being you have destroyed another life." The lady in white said softly,"I'm truly disappointed in you Cecilia and from here on out,I'm done with this so called treatment. I'm leaving " The girl in white took out a golden scroll and prepared to ignite it.
Then a large boom was heard before everything turned to complete darkness.
The formation bounding Michael shattered like paper as he charged towards Cecilia. His eyes were pure red with no pupils. They were like a burning furnace.
In a blink of an eye Michael had reached Cecilia, then he held her up by her neck. His hands were glowing blue.
"Cecilia" the girls screamed. The ladies panicked and tried using different spells on him,but he only focused on Cecilia.
His teeth elongated to that of a beast, then he bit Cecilia's neck. Cecilia mourned with pleasure.
After doing this he turned to the other girls. Cecilia who was powerless lying on the floor screamed "Athena run, teleport now Athena!!!!" But it was already too late, Michael was Infront of Athena in no time, he bit her neck and then turned to another one.
Finally all the seven girls were bitten by Michael, and we're all lying powerless on the floor. The formation dimmed and Michael passed out.
A few minutes later Cecilia was the the first one to regain her strength. She went straight to Michael to check on him, somehow he survived the horrifying ritual.
Turning him on his back,a seven coloured dragon tattoo was glowing lightly. The tattoo covered his whole back up to his buttocks.The tattoo was very lifelike and it gave off a terrifying vibe.
She tried touching it and it hummed in response. Athena and the other girls gathered by Cecilia's side.
"Cecilia you recognize the formation he used right?" Athena calmly asked." Yes, it is the saint level contract of marriage." Cecilia replied with the same tone.
"Meaning we can't break it before reaching saint level, I warned you about this Cecilia?" The girl in white fumed, Cecilia laughed lightly.
Cecilia turned towards the girls and cried bitterly.
"From the beginning till now you were given a chance to walk away. You only think about yourselves and not him. I had no choice but to do this, have you thought about how he will feel once he learns of this." Athena spoke slowly.
"How will Cecilia explain to him about this changes. How will he take this as huh? The so called friend he had from a young age turned out have ill intensions." The girl in white said in a sad voice.
"He will hate your guts Cecilia, you acted like an orphan all this years but he never said anything bad about you. But using him for your own benefits is under the belt." The girl in purple mercilessly taunted Cecilia.
" If you don't have anything to say leave here now,and don't look for me again!!"Cecilia fumed.
Athena looked at Cecilia and sighed softly, "You know I always envied you because of your knowledge Cecilia, but I never knew it was this tough. I advice you to tell him the whole truth when he wakes up. Don't hold back again,tell him everything, your origin, your purpose and also your feelings. I will be waiting for you sister" Athena smiled at the shocked Cecilia, the last sentence jolted Cecilia. She regained her confidence and nodded at the vanishing Athena.

Elsewhere in Sun city, the royal capital Brave Heart kingdom. The light church headquarters, an old lady is sitting on a rocking chair looking at the sky. Then purple lightning cut across the horizon seven times.
The lady wake up and counted using her left hand. She then sighed "even after all the sacrifices we made, a great battle is eminent. The realm of chaos will be opened in seven years time.
Go spread the word Luke,let our people prepare" the lady instructed a shadow which disappeared immediately.
The process repeated itself around every domain throughout the world. Somehow,all the forces had now a bigger issue to worry about.

I find myself in a very quite world, it is so vast that I can't see the endpoint. Then slowly two beings appear Infront of me, the first one is small seven coloured snake and my old self.
I try to move towards it but somehow the world trembled. Seven different colours flood in making it more chaotic. Thunderstorm and purple lightning rage first,the a tsunami of chilling water,the raging flames,distractive winds, rain of metal,then fractured space and lastly complete darkness.
I get electrocuted mercilessly,then chilling water,burned by flames,cut by wind blades, then hammered with metal.
The process continue for what seemed like an eternity, slowly I became a little number of the pain. I can't die for the second time, I just came here.
Finally the chaotic world stabilized, finally I can now relax and try figure out how to get out of these hell hole.I try knocking myself out, which I failed miserably.
Finally I wake up after a long sleep,I try to open my eyes but I can't see anything. I can't feel my whole body at all,It is as if I'm paralyzed.
The only thing that is working is my ears, I can hear everything around me much clearer. The birds chirping, the gentle breeze outside and the calm atmosphere outside.
Then someone opened the door, from the pace she was walking I could tell she is a lady. Her slow walking not to wake me is similar to Cecilia's behavior.
Then another pair of footsteps entered the room, this time the steps were slow and powerful.
"Cecilia Moon, do you know what you have done?" A powerful and cold voice of a lady boomed. Then a slapping sound echoed.
"You dare create an abomination just to escape your marriage to Lucien?." The lady continued questioning.
If you have any complain, question or even comment please feel free to right it down. Thank you for your time.
