She sat upright in her bed with a gasp. She just had a terrible nightmare. Not only that, she fumbled by the bedside table, trying to find her phone in the dark, but couldn’t find it. She knew she left it there.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CbhoSvhOj
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjL1RCB0QAe
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOH34NABlb2
Someone on the other side of the bed, stirred in their sleep upon hearing the ruckus and turned to look at the person fumbling in the dark.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhKzQNT9AK

"What the-?" a bed lamp light soon turned on as the person who had been woken switched it on. "Nicani kanshi? (What is wrong now?) What are you looking for? And in the early hours of the morning?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9HZzJ3Mhy
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLeVc0kOcQ
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43OL65tnn2
She didn’t answer at first until she realized that her phone isn’t anywhere nearby. She turned to look at her husband beside her.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbT3CaX6xL
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqA61vw0pD
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmJ8ytYU27
"Pepani (sorry)," she apologized. "I was looking for my phone, have you seen it?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJ5X8A7CUg
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQF7wmKGSR4
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwxUlYTl3z
"Mm?" her husband can’t believe this. "Who do you want to call at this time?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2W91jC1uv
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPg7Ie0o1L
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXzanv9wWs
"It's urgent," she said as she pushed the covers aside to get out of bed.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMOV3nQs6A

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaeOP1pFJW
"Check your dressing table," her husband muttered as he dropped his head back onto the pillow. "That’s where you left it last night."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMQ2YstyY9
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoc8y9efWEY
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7c4YkRDQJI
In her black nightdress, she went to the dressing table and found her phone there like her husband said. She quickly took it and turned around to get her black sleeping gown at the foot of the bed. In her bare feet, she quickly went to the door and left the room. Her husband growled as he lifted his head to see the door left wide open. He muttered and slowly sat up.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3U2gGe98tU

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDsnjbVAyR
She walked down the quiet, dark hallway until she made a corner, entering a room. She flipped the switch and the lights went on in the living room. Likewise, she turned to her phone to make a call.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxJ52pYr6b
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuee9c2hY6v
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4fb9vrsbQ
When she put the phone to her ear, the line on the other end didn’t even ring as the automated phone system said the person she’s trying to reach had their phone switched off.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvCMsMo3Ki
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRKc8xw8sb
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgn7auor5J
"I told her not to be switching off her phone," she muttered angrily as she looked at her phone to make a call to someone else.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlj2JMekLHS
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesXqxt4RrA
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLGx0oVgRh
After finding the person’s line, she called it. This time it went through. She only hoped that the person would answer.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVWVbO8AWG

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcvDCYWsRd
She started to pace up and down, bypassing the glass table on the white and black zebra print carpet. Not only that, she didn’t think of sitting on the black leather seats as with each minute that passed, her anxiety increased.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg93Buzu4Cy
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6Fc7vvgvv
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBQzUzh4A5
When the person on the other end didn’t pick up either, she sucked her teeth and tried to call again when she realized that someone is in the room. She turned to find her husband there in his blue pyjamas, looking sleepy as ever. She now felt guilty for waking him up.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8whTUZ80D
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC1FA7qETH

"Who are you trying to call?" he asked. "Don’t tell me it's Diana."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpy1jzBiRg9
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyato2KhDle
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcKWE3Q1np
"So?" Diana’s mother asked. "I just want to know how she’s doing?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVYVBKT4RE
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVDH7eJHHw
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqezvGK1GUJ
"At this time?" her husband approached her. "She’s asleep. And you know she switches off her phone."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQciZhZrB0

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFN33imX322
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPxGLGTvLk
Diana’s mother growled in frustration. She quickly went over to one of the chairs to sit, her head buried in her hands. Her husband came to join her.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3z2KdSErdA
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomcAZOIgQP
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bKhOpMKyg
"You don’t understand," she said, dropping her hands to look at him. "I had another dream about her and this time it felt different."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡye2WZm8kJp
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BKBwLec8j
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJ3TYClKHX
He put his hand on her shoulder. "What could be so different about this one?" he asked.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelhUe5qKfT
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgtlDDaBt1
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4gklpcf3A
Before she spoke, she bit her lip. She didn’t know how to explain it. Her previous dreams over the years weren’t as vivid and intense as this one.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxn9elcADv
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzgnl4pT5i
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLD2w17NTLS
"I can’t explain, Atake Diana (Father to Diana). Everything about this dream felt real. I feel Diana could be in huge trouble."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWZgxdl4PW
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qtgPWW1Bu
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXU586iU7r
"That’s what you always say when you have these dreams," said Diana’s father. "Aren’t they just dreams? How many have you had over the years, but they've never happened?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGNCzWVXOR
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Cml58o7MJ
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm25fMJPV14
Diana’s mother now sat upright, shaking her head. "What if they did? I believe they did. Besides, Diana doesn’t always tell us what goes on in her life. She’s so secretive."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffBoA5tqob
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZIwXdREI1
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wzNU5fPzv
"That’s because she’s a teen. You’re forgetting that people at such an age are difficult to make them open up."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnOi9kE11z
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLrcgHKPGf
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmErRFdisCG
"No, I’ve always had a feeling that she's been hiding something from us. She’s a good girl, but I feel there’s a lot going on in her life that we don’t know about."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzA9psjn7ox
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH65QcR97dV
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPKLYbWpfs
Her husband rolled his eyes. "Please, don’t bring up those incidences that were happening in the neighbourhood. Those were explainable accidents, and you can’t point a finger at Diana. Most of the time she wasn’t even there, and they happened almost four years ago."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGSMJN1GtY
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHtr4osYuA

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQN9qIjXhYT
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZRahqHF68
"Enough, please. That’s a long time ago and nothing has happened to her. You haven’t had terrible nightmares for years, so it's probably just nothing."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl60xHGcyza
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvZk1Rdte3
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPN5oLopErg
Diana’s mother looked at her husband, still with a worried look. She looked away. As much as he might be right, her intuition ate at her terribly. She can’t just ignore what she dreamt. If anything, it felt more like the first vivid dream she had of Diana; that she had died. She remembered calling the school to check up on her, and they told her Diana was perfectly fine. When Diana came home for the holidays, there was something different about her.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaFXhJo0XD

"Tiyeni (come), let’s go back to sleep," her husband persisted as he held her hand on her lap. "If you want, you and I can call your mother sometime in the morning." 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcx5AGkI4I
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGFQQvjRRT
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfvMr1tHN5
She couldn’t argue with him there, but she felt she wouldn’t be able to go back to sleep. Not until she hears that Diana is alright. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfc0GdmxAD6

"Okay, can I send a message to Katy so that she calls me when she sees it?" she asked. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOGleXQurO

"Be quick," Diana’s father stood. "If you’re not in the room in two minutes, I’ll come and drag you if I have to." 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJyuBEPKzP
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Q2tViN4D3
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rDI7msTzn
With quiet, steady steps, Diana’s father walked out of the room, leaving his wife still seated on the couch. She quickly sent Katy a text, but she knew it wasn’t enough.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z6sapfDOQ

Namatama stood up from her seat and slowly started to make her way out of the living room. She thought she saw a shadow pass through the window, outside. Likewise, she stopped to draw aside the curtain. A neighbour’s floodlight shone brightly in the next yard. For a moment, she thought maybe a cat had passed atop the wall fence, causing the shadow she saw.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHIlPdZNFB
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFaxJziU1f
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzXl8Iq5iF
Before she was able to push the curtains, she thought she had seen something through the corner of her eye in the room. Her heart skipped a beat as she quickly turned to see if there’s anyone there. The only people awake are she and her husband, and she would've heard him if he had made his way back in the living room.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1sPbSfLOu
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDG8R1qzCk
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRuGtUhTgp
"I must be imagining things," she told herself.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKGtnOt6RN
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xi77FBPei
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BTmDBoupM
"And what if you aren’t?" came a voice.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HShx6jXQl
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovAvPG1pd3
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89WfCjZgno
As soon as she heard it, she jumped in fright and almost screamed, but someone covered her mouth with their hand from behind, holding her in place. Diana’s mother is now terrified that there's a stranger in the house. She started to breathe heavily.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn004QHSlJP
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitCvfFA2qF
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWjv0zZ2Ax
"Don’t move, and I won’t hurt you," came the voice in a soft, yet dangerous whisper. "Calm down. I’ll uncover your mouth. Don’t scream or else I'll kill you. Nod if you understand."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFLlNN2cdK
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUS8ZEbpfVm
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScLbZ5Xr2k
She nodded, and started to slow her breathing. Her heart beat fast like a drum that she could hear it. The person’s hand over her mouth slowly fell away, and she felt relieved. She quickly looked behind her, but no one is there.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6mJvI9R3a
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0GsIZ0J81
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBefCnyls76
"Don’t freak out," came the voice again, this time in front of her. "I want you to slowly turn towards me."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0FWRpUM50
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRLOlQXkTS
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehSy7LjQ8o
She swallowed and slowly turned her head back. Likewise, she found someone standing in front of her, all dressed in black and floating in midair. Namatama gasped in fright as she thought she would never come across the terrifying skull-faced mask ever again.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9x2n9dQkr
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8450KBHIv
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCZrtl4im1
"Hello, Namatama," came a female voice behind the mask. "Long time no see."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaoJMDwcqR
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVk3S3iPTjr
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQn0VQjx57
"What are you doing here?" Namatama asked, her voice breaking with both fear and anger. "I thought I told you not to show yourself ever again."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePVLPr2RsL
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyYDwt9mkh
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeo2uQFeVB
The floating figure raised her hand to remove the mask. Behind it lay a young face of a woman with light, brown skin and sharp, dark eyes like that of a cat. Her lips were coloured black, and she grinned at Namatama with her white, razor sharp teeth glowing in the dark.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfedUAtDEB
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP2m22fTQE
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmcsGSOvF3
"I know," said the lady in front of her. "But aren’t you up thinking about your daughter, Diana?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLw2bDBGCB
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAj5MwIg7pV
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkngtk1qzur
Namatama froze, looking at the lady before finding her voice. "What do you know about her?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzGNIJf1Av
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHZePQm0br
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pXSVkKHqq
The woman chuckled. "It’s sad that you don’t know what’s going on. So much has happened over the years that you’ve failed to notice."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqSdXQwDoc
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubyP6QAOBQ
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRb3YH1vXiV
Namatama’s eyes widened. "What do you know about Diana?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7G5kA45yXw
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3xWjxmQNC
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6AmGj0WQD

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfP0uShS5d
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyNfe3REqX
The woman floating in the air came a little closer. "You know that she’s beyond special. It’s been that way from the day she was born." 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kRnxaCxfK
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWf75PMpDF
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2aulY9C9U
"Get to the point. You came here after such a long time to talk to me, and it’s about Diana. Tell me, is she in trouble?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3z3oIZyxq
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNGbDUml6l
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4GSqFGCzO
The woman smiled as she backed away a bit. "It’s not good news, I’m afraid."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwfEZJp6IP
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjsF42dXRE
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcL2bvIhx7

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzxVyneLr9

The woman stopped smiling as she sighed. "Her destiny is catching up to her. It has been for some years now."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhi12TAxvZ

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZotJ9WC3fn
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEdWVfxUtO
"Honey, why aren’t you here yet?" Diana’s father called out. Namatama almost muttered out loud, upset that her husband could call out like that when everybody else is fast asleep.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01TxVHfjJg
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5RXGVSoRe
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnws3EExRTG
"I think you already know how she started behaving when she came back from boarding school a couple of years ago. Some might think she was going through puberty, but you as a mother knew better."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYmSAHmmfx
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7dLMTk4rK
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqo4bbSXq1

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pSKsjPpaU
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YvT8zfo0f
The woman in black nodded. "Yes. She’s been trying to act as normal as she can around you, but it's been difficult to keep it under wraps with all those weird events that used to happen."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTVZnLRB7b
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERDCvYVnVi
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZQwTRHpy1

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktGt3lH5TO
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvEOxDjura

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18JBR6YhzM

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfgHiIJNKg
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZxiENzxFF
Namatama continued to back away as her heart started to feel heavy with grief. She felt a sharp piercing through her heart and tears already started to fill her eyes. "What have I done?" she muttered. "What have I done?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXncDa6oxMA
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhWBI93SfM
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0h0iXfsxS
Her hand flew to her chest as she sank to her knees onto the carpeted floor. Tears quickly fell onto her cheeks as she covered her mouth. The woman in black continued to look at her as she said:324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsV34ceO0TW
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKJYCa6NQg
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbp2SoZWNj
"As heartbreaking as this is, you should know that Diana is a very strong girl. But I’m afraid the danger she is facing right now is too great that she has to brace herself."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLLmTpZ5Rx
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LEzMH7UlP
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdz3su08Rv
Namatama looked up at the woman. "You claim Diana is strong. How strong when she’s just a young defenceless girl?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUikncsDAJe
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F3hzFyqFo
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3kAX9poKO
The smile the woman had earlier plastered onto her face again. "A lot has happened over the years that has made your daughter the bravest girl I’ve ever seen. She’s been through a lot. And for a girl her age, I’m surprised she has matured this quickly, especially with her true nature coming into fruition. Many people wouldn’t have handled it as well as she has."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHxhdD9VSi
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkgf1NXKD0
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7Ggww3s4H

The woman put up a genuine smile. "Just like you, Diana is also very important to me. Don’t make the mistake of not telling her. It's best it comes from you and not anyone else."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XFJIjxmyb

"Namatama, what did I tell you about…?" came her husband, and he paused upon seeing his wife on the floor. "What are you doing?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGGCPJ24n5
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ231CRW0t4V
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7M2YcpNPj
Namatama quickly wiped away the tears from her eyes and stood up. She looked in front of her and the woman in black had disappeared.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8BTfhPYO5

Namatama couldn’t argue there as she followed her husband who made sure to switch the lights off in the living room.

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TQPiuEHIF
I look back at him, trying to relive what happened. "Well, I’ve encountered shadow monsters and also a level one." I feel Stella look at me. I must have forgotten to mention that I had faced a level one before. "And this one felt like the one I fought before. Shadow monsters might be mindless creatures that love to bring about destruction, but there’s something about a level one that has always kept me wondering whether they really do think on their own."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWSjlqFjEu

Lucifer chuckled. "While the supernatural world is a mystery to normal people, many supernaturals have also been blinded about their own world for years.

"Yes. But…," he now stood up from his seat and went to one of the bookshelves in the room. "There are a few requirements that you’ll need."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhA6ZtufyE

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65WphbarDA
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQxDGtwm4B
Lucifer ignored him by not commenting. He looked through the bookshelves at the thick books with hard black covers. I know you're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but you can tell nothing good comes from those books.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5f2tMs4q5
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAOW4fNE9m
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCH442T0xt

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ138gq7mR9b
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRu8bO4KTLo
He started to flip through the pages and I couldn’t help but take a peek. The pages are old, and I noticed that whoever wrote the book, had a pretty sharp, cursive handwriting. There were many drawings and illustrations on some pages and a few of them looked quite gruesome. Stella didn’t fringe away from looking at it. I turn to Mutale and I see him look the other side. Some Elite soldier, he is. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoS23rTWUJU
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvUGpyD2Kj
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNLKgP4wMz
"So," I turn to look at Lucius behind me while we wait for Lucifer to find the page, "you say controlling a shadow monster is difficult. How difficult?" 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1jCsDsZ60
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMX8BkCGOC
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMP7XrMOCl
"Like my father put it, it’s frustrating and depending on what level it is, it gets painful," Lucius answered.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3XrdMwqH2
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHT4wJZUgCZ

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqn5iiATJz
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidKppvyVLl
"The way you control it is almost similar to the way you can mind control a human being. It’s easier on humans because you can manipulate the mind. We already know shadow monsters are mindless, so you really have to dig a little deeper to take control of them, meaning it takes up a lot of your energy."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlvGNRrXvE
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7oPGlJF27

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTZgT2K9tK
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87SACnsjyN
"I’m guessing whoever brought up the rumour that only the devil can control such things, must have done so to prevent us from ever thinking that we can control one," I said.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6ywIiyfe6
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74CGAreqdq
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpAcA0Ted4
Lucifer chuckled. "True. We did that because we know if many supernaturals broke their minds, we would’ve a lot of them causing havoc when that’s my job. And I am at least a little lenient." I gave him a look on that last part.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XAp7TmrEb

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tuxQmE8ov
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRSQQUqwJd

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFVaGLDpEv
"What happened to him?" I asked. "Did he die or something?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwZmAzdUE5
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5e0j7y8Z7l
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkPqHsqkc6
"Killing an immortal is hard, and you know that better than anyone, Diana," said Lucifer. "That old fella is probably somewhere either in this world or the other in a peaceful place chanting mantras or something."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXLVsQLkYG
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZMgXulqgg
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppm82nz6PZ
"True," said Stella. "No one has actually heard from him in ages after leaving Her Highness in charge. I actually have never met him."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KZjyFbXnQ
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHndwEOAts
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HVxCwfx1a
That’s a shock. Whatever reason he had for leaving his position and going elsewhere must have been genuine. The world of the supernatural is just as confusing and chaotic as the human one. If also given the chance, I would also disappear.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfrXApd0FD
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjnO8RxTu3

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7cCf4ahJa
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcwdHj38A5
Stella and I quickly stood up from our seats to look. Mutale remained where he is. Lucius slowly came to join us at the table.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3QfPR43Q9
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNODz5Xnfh
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGX3No1p5Pp
"Okay, so," Lucifer pointed to the paragraph on the page. "Like I said, you must be a supernatural. It says here for you to control something as dark as a shadow monster, you must join the dark side."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYrexK4q0P
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1uMo63epz
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGwc0rvr5i

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKN4Ef1MJ2f
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2H1iwg2kK4
"Yep. Selling your soul to me, that kind of thing. And…, it says here you must also sacrifice the one thing that means precious to you and there are some blood rituals you’ve to perform with all the symbols and stuff."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkk835cZRf
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IXzzOYD8z
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZeFIQc5ib
"Okay, but these are just the basic stuff that a lot of us could’ve already guessed," said Stella. "What we really want to know is who could it be."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWyZEaFUDl
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TM7yST1HB
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7uR7J6DcL
"Stella is right," I said, looking up from the book to Lucifer. "You say anyone can control a shadow monster and these are the requirements. Isn’t there anyone who can naturally control them like you do? What if the person we seek never had to perform this ritual?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsc41t0h9P
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXFlUGT4nU
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NcSFqtGMi
Lucifer now looked at me and this time, he had a grim look. "I was afraid you were going to ask me that," he said. He looked down at the book and flipped through a couple of pages. "Apparently, you’re right. I’m not the only one who can control them naturally. There are two more beings that can."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbj5XDx6PY
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwE4o303KH
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfgWYcw29v
"Two more?" Lucius also can’t believe it.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrKQWrO5K8

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5b5YmpSUe

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysZiCS0sAD
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbnZFaHoPQ
Lucifer pointed to the top left side of the book where there’s a list of names. His is the top. The second and third made my insides freeze. I should’ve known better, especially with the third.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYo0uKD1It9
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPhLQIeuXq
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjZEFWL3MF

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu9HrwGUrG
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvagLXRVZUY
I see Mutale lift his head and Lucifer now threw him a smirk. "You want to see it for yourself, don’t you? Lucius, help him up."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B5fdWDnXj

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmWT56AY7H
"Oh, I think it is." Lucifer brought his left hand up in midair and at the same time, Mutale is lifted off his seat and brought forward. He flinched at first, trying to get away from Lucifer’s invisible grip, but he knows it's pointless. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ua1Wenf4I
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI33e9ynPWP

Lucifer turned the book the other way around for Mutale to look at. Mutale did his level best to look upwards, but with a simple bend of his index finger, Lucifer made Mutale’s head point downwards. The look on Mutale’s face as his eyes fell on the book said it all.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hZrdsWeTD
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkPiH1Sn83
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOZYexRoy9
"No, no," Mutale muttered shaking his head. "This is a lie. This book holds nothing but lies."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0GsEAvGfA

"I’m sorry, but this book was written centuries ago," said Lucifer. "Like I said before, so many things have been hidden from us that we only know what we think is relevant because it’s been set that way for ages. No one likes to know the truth. We all just like to hide in the sweet bliss of ignorance."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1wap9O5Ev

"Enough," I said, taking the book and turning it away from Mutale’s eyes. "There must be a reasonable explanation for this. May you please put him back down?"324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFstpARHbx
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXh7IjXgcfu

Lucifer dragged Mutale back to his seat, making him land onto the chair. This time, gently.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31fmOolWNG

"Well, I think I’ve taken in a lot of these revelations for one day," said Stella as she looked at me. She soon went to sit back down on her chair.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMUwLIFypV

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxI4RHmo133
I look at Mutale, and he still looked horrified. I feel bad for him. It’s not easy receiving the truth like he did just now. Even I’m trying to take it all in.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGzLy085UI

I went back to look at the list and I realized that just after the first three were a few more. But the names were written in a symbolic language that I couldn’t recognize.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5ppJyEnh1
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlUWoqGvtt
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQpTwfql72
"What does this mean?" I asked Lucifer as I pointed at the other names. "I can’t seem to recognize the words."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNyMIVt043

"Whoever has control over shadow monsters has his name automatically written in the book," he answered as he looked at the page.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLZLAw3IaV
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRpx4rSC5i
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwfNGbK06t

Lucifer now looked at me and that charming smile of his came back. "It’s not necessary. If I were you I should be more worried about number 3."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwrLq78BIl
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnTVOvp2kI
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9nnl2mIvy
"He’s right," said Lucius. "I'm not surprised if he so happens to have sent the shadow monster after you."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7ehGd2uDI
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5pzCRIqnk
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcLGwVD8Th
"I’m worried about number 2," said Stella. "The thought of Him sending a shadow monster after Diana creeps me out."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxsNXiFxCv

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMg2iTijQO
"Don’t say that," Mutale spoke up. "He can never do such a thing. That book says nothing but lies."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQBlOKFPDD
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgasvQHX5w
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKJYj0lqKG
"I’m sorry," said Lucifer, raising an eyebrow at Mutale. "But isn’t He the same person who created day and night? Light and darkness?" He sighed. "Let me tell you a little something to ease your mind a little."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqMoDXUBeW
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxj35rFOQu
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqaN50Zny2
Everyone now turned their attention to Lucifer. So did Mutale.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraBPlfjopr

"As much as He can control shadow monsters, He wouldn’t do it just to get to Diana," Lucifer continued. "He has you Elite soldiers for that. If He wanted to, I bet He would’ve sent his angels to do the job, but the Golden Elite decided to take up the role."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UTNcfguw5

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtmwA52Xte
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzcGby8xB7
"He can’t control a shadow monster without me knowing about it, so he’s already out of the question. It’s just the way it is. Moreover, if I try to do something similar to the light, he would know. That’s why the two of us have always stayed in our lane to not bring about confusion. But I do like to give him a challenge once in a while."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXf9trDBOS

My heart felt at ease. Stella looked relaxed and Mutale exhaled in relief. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLGdRp92BY

Lucifer threw his son another look showing that he’s annoyed with him. Before he could throw a comment, a knock came at the door. For a moment, I forgot about where we were and that there are people in the house. Lucifer told whoever was at the door to come in, and the door flew open. A woman in a black dress and white apron stood there. She is short and plump with her blonde hair tied into a bun. This must be the house help.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4FXG07Ew5

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkNWajvu9h
"Yes, bring it in. I want you to tell the guards to get everyone out of the house," Lucifer ordered. "The place looks like a hellhole."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5us1hrlPmh
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2IgRe3HcT
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWsVy53GFJ
Apart from the help, we all look at Lucifer with a questioning look. This place just happens to be one of his many hellholes.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvG2vP4UXP

The help dragged in a movable tray behind her and there are all sorts of delicious breakfast treats: chocolate chip cookies, eggs, bacon, bread and cereal for any of us craving for it. There were plenty of white teacups, plates and bowls to go around. And after all that’s happened in the last few hours, I now feel hungry.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBXCAmH8hP
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkyF2cST3j
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LobqUCbcT
The help soon left and Lucifer said, "please, dig in. As for you," he turned to Mutale, "you also better eat up after receiving the news that your wonderful Being isn’t involved in this mess."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z0wZiobey
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftBzlU0e8N
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcLgRuoCpv
"Are you seriously asking me to eat?" Mutale asked, sounding surprised.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lvCaRbohA

"I’ll help serve you," said Stella as she stood up and approached the tray. "Now that I think about it, I’m starving."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OfOI841kA

324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlasOPsqF6
"I’ll have some cookies and tea, please," said Mutale.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsXFatpdr7
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpguHwoBTSv
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ADj8DADDI
"I need to eat too," said Lucifer as he also went to the tray. "I drank too much last night, I didn't have a bite to eat."324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljkGIl15zt

I watched the three surrounding the tray before my eyes flew back to the open book before me. My eyes are gravely fixed on the name that's third on the list and my hunger quickly dissipated. I should've known earlier that there's only one being who really wants to get rid of me with all their might:324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrji3cGq7Gi
