After going to the direction where we heard him calling for backup, i was surprised to see jake lying on the ground while a numerous Ogre circles him like they were performing a ritual. I almost chuckled at his pathetic sight, but i chose not to since he was knocked out cold.
Using my powers again, i confidently walked towards the ogres, all of them swinging their fangs towards me. "Come to mama."
As they come after me one by one, slashing every green monster that i can, i was abruptly stopped when i felt a sudden uncomfortable feeling inside of me.
My vision darkened, my claws started to emit dark aura around them.
I took deep breathes.
And another one,
Again,
And again.
I was breathing way too fast as i felt my blood boil in excitement. My eyes saw blood and it reflected into my personality. Every kill i did, i was smiling, i felt i did. As the number grew my thirst for blood grew also.
What was i feeling? What's this dark feeling on my chest?
Gina wasn't responding to everything, whatever looks like she doesn't care at all. But i think she knows, what is happening to me.
I don't know.
I don't know why is it i'm seeing another personality inside of me.
This is not me!
I gagged, i felt my throat ran dry and seeing blood infront of me made me want to drink it. The smell and sight was driving me mad.
"H-Helios?"
That familiar voice.
I slowly looked behind and saw them, the guys. I was sure they were looking at the tower of dead that i was standing upon on. At a split second, i felt scared, trying to imagine myself in their position.
But i don't know. Why is that i'm getting voices that i should kill these guys?
I smirked, my fangs showing.
SYRENA's POV
My mind was off nowhere in this world. I slept silently while my eyes flickered every time i sense something around me. I can't tell if i'm awake or not but i do know that i'm seeing a vision.
Which is weird, visions aren't for witches. Especially dark witches, we don't dream, we seek nightmares.
"Syrena.."
That voice.. a young frail child's
Voice. My eyes woke up, seeing an familiar place infront of me. I stood infront of the cabin where i found the White witch book, this is where the voice is coming from.
"Where are you?" I spoke out.
She repeats. "Syrena.."
Without thinking i already opened the door and seek where she was, i'm getting clues on my head. I think it's Givea, Christal's wolf that's calling me.
I stopped when i spotted a cage trapping her inside. A spirit of a young girl floats mid air as she looked at me with blue ocean eyes. A barrier in a form of a cage, i touched it.
My eyes widened, my hand went through.
"Help Christal." She speaks.
"Why? Did something happen to her?"
"Help her, she not used to controlling herself, much less her powers. She posses both light and dark trapped inside her." She giggled.
Light and dark?
"You're one of those powers right?" I asked.
I shivered at the sudden cold impact of the air, it went around the cabin. The fog was slowly entering the cabin, making me see her fade slowly.
She nodded. "I am light."
I sensed something, but not this spirit infront of me.
Something behind me, a dark entity.
She raised her finger and pointed behind me. "That's darkness."
JAXON's POV
I leaned downwards and placed my head beside him. "Alpha King, the evaluation is about to start."
We were at the central Den. The Central Den was made to locate any movements around the Pack or in Delta, and we highly secure this place with hundreds of warriors. Also, The system we use to effectively locate any movements are by using Witches as power source.
He nodded.
The witches started to cast portals that show current movements on Delta. Just like in the Arthurian legend, this place has its round table consisting of several seats from different packs. Yes i meant Alphas.
Each of them having their second in command, the beta.
"We're gonna evaluate a 5th level?" One of them unbelievably says.
I took a glance on the Alpha king and saw no trace of emotion on his face. It was odd for them that the Alpha King wanted to evaluate 5th level, which was the lowest with every Alpha on the continent.
"I don't see why we should evaluate beginners, i say we evaluate 2nd or 1st levels-"
The Alpha King lowly growled.
And they shut their mouth off, each of them looking at each other with disbelief. Thankfully the Elders weren't here to see this childish act. I must admit i think i know why he wants to evaluate 5th level.
Surely it's because of Luna.
"Inform the trainees that the evaluation is canceled." He said. "Not one of them should know that we will evaluate in discreet."
I nodded, i telepathically called Delta Base and relayed the message to one of the superiors.
While i was relying the message, the portals started showing images or actually a vision of the present. The 5th level was already on Groups and the superiors distributed by each groups.Every Alpha on the sit didn't have any choice but to evaluate 5th level just because the Alpha King ordered so.
My eyebrows furrowed when i spotted Luna. I still can't get used to that transformation, she looked nothing like a girl. Syrena did a perfect job with disguising.
Each group has its own portal that we view. Of course Alpha King is watching where the Luna was at. I was also watching carefully every movement their group took.
They're too carefree, The Luna already passed the first step when she stood beside Michael and waited for their companion to howl.
I know this challenge. Actually it's one of the easiest challenges that each group has to take, it's taking down hundreds of Ogers in the forest. I've never heard a group fail before this one.
What's she doing?
My eyes widened when she ran towards the direction of the Ogers with unbelievable speed, the alphas on her back was already left behind.
"That guy has speed." One of them speaks up. Every one agreed while the Alpha King watched still.
The view just followed her and left behind the others, seeing that the Alphas here wanted to solo watch her movements, they're not interested in other groups at all.
Christal ran alone and moved alone.
But can she survive hundreds of ogres by herself? That must be why the Alphas around us are bickering that he will die or they're expecting something Big.
"A guy with speed but reckless, he's gonna die." One of them said, still no reaction from the Alpha King.
I ignored side comments and watched her through the portal. She was hiding on the bush before she rose up and clawed the enemy in front of her.
My eyes widened, what great force. Her claws went through the monster. Normally claws would only scratch ogers, their weak points is the head. The only person i saw do that is the Alpha King.
Everyone was taken back, but not the Alpha King.
Wait a minute, her eyes are flaming red?
The Alpha King stood up and walked off the Den, i followed silently. "Alpha King."
"Shut up, she needs me now."
