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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LWvJ4U8Xp
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFO3hVK7yv1
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ULlkW0UKZ
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxByWLbTBt

"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?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqen7s5gtma
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ858OdCWiJF
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz80UtHNWNy
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcmlM6pZyG
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFW9hVJWzeG
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbtjp9gRfZ
"Pepani (sorry)," she apologized. "I was looking for my phone, have you seen it?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkx1cV4oMFL
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMNEyDnS34
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeGxOVcxjP
"Mm?" her husband can’t believe this. "Who do you want to call at this time?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcBq2lo8Nm
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2n1SH3gAv
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVmFDVvcXU
"It's urgent," she said as she pushed the covers aside to get out of bed.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QMKRjRDG9
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwvYGvjjnH
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3WFfuIMvU
"Check your dressing table," her husband muttered as he dropped his head back onto the pillow. "That’s where you left it last night."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvonjqooa6
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8AC1e73X0
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6XhO1JV2j
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcE9PgPIrZ

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIqzR0A6a9
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdGMAkQDrp
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxLXpcX5HW
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ86vLz8jgU
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHW4Tlez22
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFYV285qss
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALkiM2m6Qf
"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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISt2UVb1dM
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNb37IknKZR
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFArZ0I0Fw
After finding the person’s line, she called it. This time it went through. She only hoped that the person would answer.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aDDGsxyUw
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvhWzzUFGj
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUNFjTI4zJ
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFx5XTsaKo
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqubUHmHCOD
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcPUfskTbr
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2TmwiSZey
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKk7h8tosoU

"Who are you trying to call?" he asked. "Don’t tell me it's Diana."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3HhW46FTX
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5oC0i7JnJ
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrGnNeqFhI
"So?" Diana’s mother asked. "I just want to know how she’s doing?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHSSCfiOSP
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtYJIidpwB
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAiDkV54EP
"At this time?" her husband approached her. "She’s asleep. And you know she switches off her phone."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0416QM3Hfo

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBe9z7bye3S
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4VVVMXvlX
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tH99g01xU
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkCulSl4WQ
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16ob0y2Z6m
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xtHEIXA60
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhMg6X4E2W
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqdgJ0oAAU
He put his hand on her shoulder. "What could be so different about this one?" he asked.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTco9LAQr2
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoL2iwUIoi
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oGR7NN3Rt
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63SsgVZsgz
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmrE21INjD
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6S8XW8r2sj
"I can’t explain, Atake Diana (Father to Diana). Everything about this dream felt real. I feel Diana could be in huge trouble."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvUpRoedw8
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKZre2XPXL
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyn9pgFiiNx
"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?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4y10oLMrMb
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pf8R0vGk9
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDTwvWsgto
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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdiSf2SQWz
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17ja5knrjN
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7fvhrbJkp
"That’s because she’s a teen. You’re forgetting that people at such an age are difficult to make them open up."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZqqMZKPrM
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLLCdgzak5
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwkCaEzCPf
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dDonHCvsO
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbinSeP92os
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TZOtx6G8f
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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjW4U6uy8eu

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJaE9USVp7
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNT8XiTNuf
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNC8F2Ax3s5
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1iz3BRJ0Q
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsMMJL8tDQ
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7ylE6gTzk

"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." 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsKiI9MnUl
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisKJjhFdvD
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYORulndFRD
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp6cgAJiA4

"Okay, can I send a message to Katy so that she calls me when she sees it?" she asked. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnDqCOdmZO

"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." 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXYBKl2hdL
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf6O9GqmNe
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvDkbRNpwD
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LvVcFt7QW

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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnwrMYm2Pk
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0YH4xH7jq
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDg0Q2u0IUK
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcUek65s3N
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCt0SP9LT1o

"And what if you aren’t?" came a voice.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUNHcsNVXi
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNPQJ5U55Z
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7Mo5E0oAG
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlasBXp845
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcJcBhUxjI
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMSQLPlmO7
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDciU8L60CC
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5i8o4odT7u
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0sXeDE4h6
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCb8PREE6z
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2Q62dZ8h4
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfstEawPfey
"Don’t freak out," came the voice again, this time in front of her. "I want you to slowly turn towards me."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZgPfilo4T
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEwq3LhzaH
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOALdiuGO3f
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0qFq0Da4l
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvwhvWQcql
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYUoSqQUXB
"Hello, Namatama," came a female voice behind the mask. "Long time no see."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhWehPRcDh
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp5pcdXSdg
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshAqF6o3Ux
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEjV7KANiX
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1crBhwzTR
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaibm1HKEKl
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQElvRke6p
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMYxV4UEAJ
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuJau7uoSc
"I know," said the lady in front of her. "But aren’t you up thinking about your daughter, Diana?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BAa6yl5iR
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3DPzBXrCl
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqZhpbfeKi
Namatama froze, looking at the lady before finding her voice. "What do you know about her?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoZVOwwazN
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduevETy8hw
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeg0HLeRdHV
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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHXuE1tNca
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPf412ULI5

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXndNm4ZMD6

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." 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6pNBO0nlT
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJNeoq3y9a
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHpwTm0JOW

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYiAg23KOt

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ078qZ9MJe2
"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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjnfucRil0

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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XpbWfUpdH
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAkOL9sYBZ

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?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfAtCdfuGV

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZIwIRiefS
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:210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvoFEmQNEU
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLI4ejI4TH
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSiv2BNe6e
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HuSw5Z6Rw
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamQl933ceo
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yl3Oeo9MX

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKCcXt89O9
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoAEU1APQ4
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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2TIGF8zcu
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDexBvWWFbt
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYyn64HR5H

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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nSOlslKzu

"Namatama, what did I tell you about…?" came her husband, and he paused upon seeing his wife on the floor. "What are you doing?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX2ZvXmpWK
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVlBsYWBNo
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcI9tGTT5W
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPwhsyWBcD

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

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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzIdXEmavV

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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSRd3c9sQV

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZAciXIQsD
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkwR7rrOwc
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiO8wZeo6U
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqdalkaBGr
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaz2J087wx
"Okay," he took one thick book on the shelf and brought it to the desk. It looked so thick that I’m glad I’ll never get to read it. Who knows what dark things it holds.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rmwBxrGZc
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzXF748zgd
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXz4pzTO14
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXyEGsVjvK
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGb9fiqQlZ
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0zuvWybmP
"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?" 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYidAKwSscG
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOvcrwuzzv
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkYAZbSRKA
"Like my father put it, it’s frustrating and depending on what level it is, it gets painful," Lucius answered.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJYMBj5Kjc
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdpiUWp3tb
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzF5gutJAM

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJesTZACGWf
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSpwAVcSwr
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUBBQ0tlo0
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVOKkjhf8w
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Z9yUFJMKk
"And if you aren’t careful," Lucifer chirped in as he continued to flip through the pages, "you might end up breaking your mind."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8RsWQ1jjd
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOluQbd5Uc
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSVR4wioPr
"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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRyqyfWXTI
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Wmq1p8ZbV
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyz0A3WGlc
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmLe8fRE5M

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtcmiGoEWZ
"The Immortals of Old," he answered as he continued looking through the pages. "Those who have lived from the beginning of time, so to say."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJQEPa0ot1

"If I can recall, the person who was in charge of the Butterfly Island before her Highness was there too," Lucifer looks up at Stella.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomKlu2VV7x
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqSHSOgSLB
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrMVl9WCxZ

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WT0K9bsna
"What happened to him?" I asked. "Did he die or something?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ980BUvq6Nz
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLylBTGnGgV
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZpdJuLfhh
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKQfFo7pto
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4Kmtl8yV1
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xHAtDFdBh
"True," said Stella. "No one has actually heard from him in ages after leaving Her Highness in charge. I actually have never met him."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJC94bHh0I
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36rjL9nKu5
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMhS12e5ww
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vetbozu77

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzeuqU9EK7
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7esYIpszqp
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQZ5llZY6J
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaLhD5fV17
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInRjVGuXwE
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSf0SyyvpB
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMi6CxJA7z1
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQXFkq6QDl
"Meaning your side, right?" I asked, looking at Lucifer.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YY73UFdD9
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwIHUCYiPI
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62ZZMDHhoi
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvVnIZMHPh
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYmPhnJxpU
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLDGwRnJ87
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KSYGTS783
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2qTxOaO3D
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T3DvJomJk
"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?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtUGCJIvKS
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjommPo1Ysw
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFoAjx1BM6
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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrt3tNx7Fy5
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsPIsYz3k5
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82kf3tEA2J

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97ob05DbdK
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfen671mSlT
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xRrQNXIIi

"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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCYpKjyxVV
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQ1BROdQwJ

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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKkT5Dvxzv

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkjNJGPHbD
"No, no," Mutale muttered shaking his head. "This is a lie. This book holds nothing but lies."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgH1BHwjME

"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFp6fHDrip6

"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?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMekHmAuwRA

Lucifer dragged Mutale back to his seat, making him land onto the chair. This time, gently.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFAVnU6tqj

"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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTp3iShmww

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMIbtZST0C
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljhoNUjlVW

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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnhFjVpihI
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YDIja1tBF
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrO8BP4n1RM
"What does this mean?" I asked Lucifer as I pointed at the other names. "I can’t seem to recognize the words."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLMMNwH2YL

"Whoever has control over shadow monsters has his name automatically written in the book," he answered as he looked at the page.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTapyrioNZc

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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cr5ptkOJa

"He’s right," said Lucius. "I'm not surprised if he so happens to have sent the shadow monster after you."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3HNPdEIUm

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefxyAkEyks
"I’m worried about number 2," said Stella. "The thought of Him sending a shadow monster after Diana creeps me out."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmDW4hzT7G

"Don’t say that," Mutale spoke up. "He can never do such a thing. That book says nothing but lies."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvSiO4MomT

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1EyRcvxAK
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMi01ERZx65

"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF387kmIvYU

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCXqGXC2WL
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniCMaIUSTO

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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRl0Kz81eKK

"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfr6re97U8
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKruIoDxqj
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67zzHMv9lS
Apart from the help, we all look at Lucifer with a questioning look. This place just happens to be one of his many hellholes.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9nCBYJHvc

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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7R2odd2Hgi

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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJal5TjMobe

210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlTN4mbeLW
"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."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTMklRZLpY

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:210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVvodNAgiS
