416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4PYrpkQUD
Looking out at the ocean on the balcony of the Devil's Beach House reminded me of Butterfly Island. I don't know why I suddenly remembered the place, and I started to wonder how people back there are doing. When all of this is over, I intend to go back there for a visit. I did promise Stella that I would.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3ox8m9yNr

I heard footsteps behind me, and I could tell it was Lucius. Likewise, I continued looking at the ocean as he came to stand beside me.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiD9kKVSNLP

"Hey," he said as he turned to look at me. "Are you okay?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMwIj3us7u
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKTzmjvUCF
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpGdg4YPSN
A smile automatically appeared on my face. "I'm fine, Lucius," I said. "I should have known from the very beginning that Death sent that thing after me."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZ8CvNN7IT
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaLQKuhxZh
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kdIfTpMuQ
"Well, there was no way of knowing. I mean, you just learned that any supernatural being can control a shadow monster if they want to."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdYd3g1bCp
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPS9YPMoSbH
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvvJQHpROg
"Yeah." I folded my arms. "Death did say he would do anything to get to me. The shadow monster is quite a surprise."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8I93cfRHw

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8GKqRDC0H
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJZgvEHX3Z
I now look at him. "Of Death? We will all die eventually, except for immortals like you. That's if someone manages to cut your head off."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5uAycivlT

I turn back to face the ocean. My life hasn't been sunshine and rainbows, not since I turned into a supernatural being. I've had trouble come my way, and I've had to deal with it relentlessly. I didn't have much of a choice then, and I still don't. Even trying to have a normal teenage life has been difficult. Pretending that nothing has been going on with me becomes tedious every day, especially when things happen around you that you can't even explain to your family and friends. A few people know about my supernatural abilities. My cousin, Katy, and my two younger brothers, not to mention a close friend of mine back home.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEhUnpByYj

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfVPmCYNRU
"So, what are you going to do now?" Lucius asked me.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUwKxJFbxU
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJ0m9cWeqG
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94TnpSLx68
"About what? The shadow monster?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. "Usually we would wait for it to mind its business in the shadows since it doesn't like the light. However, this one is different. It's clearly set on capturing me. So, I won't have much of a choice but to face it."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1GxLHKQEH
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1jsVUCuMg
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWduZ707tU
"I thought you would think of travelling around the world where the sun still shines." Lucius gave a chuckle.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxqgpYlMtV
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9rwZEdD8s
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dekMmOx6K
"Sounds like a plan, but you know it's pointless. I have to stop it from chasing me somehow."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0k3aGqebec
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmbUoZiKGM
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmw3DYOXrc
Lucius now had a serious look on his face. "And when you do, how sure are you that he won't just send another one?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigekG5I0om
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5eFv33LeB
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KTJr2Zy8v
He's right. The thought of it sent a chill down my spine. There's no point in trying to avoid it. Death wants my head, and this time, he seems to have laid down his trump card. Or is there more up his sleeve? I swear, my life is slowly starting to take a turn for the worse.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZR4UfvpoMk

"If that happens, she can come and live on the island," Stella answered as she walked up to us to join us on the balcony.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl25J51Hz14
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQM317zu4bs
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSX65doco00
"Really?" I asked as I turned to look at her. "Why there?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv7tbTE827
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiALqEfh3Nc
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMXje3S9zw
"You know how the island has an impressive defensive barrier." She came to stand on my other side. "It will be a safe haven for you for a little while until we find a way to get rid of the shadow monster."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZRj4hL3Zn
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsi9d5WF5N
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNWjiVIKCt
"I was just about to suggest that she come live with me," said Lucius as he nervously chuckled.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5EhvjttEe

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSNYnKdrUg
"Wait, at your father's residence? No way," I rebuked. "No offence, Lucius; that palace is creepy, along with everyone who lives there. I'm surprised that you're the only one who isn't."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmMhip52Xt
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrmZTVFnPn
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmvWj1OT83
"Courtesy of my mum, I guess," he said as he now looked at the ocean, lost in thought. "Besides, the shadow monsters under my father's control won't do anything to you."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvV7AElkd1
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTzISo8ywo
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PCiCHPxuD
"Yeah, but what's the assurance that the shadow monster isn't going to come and attack me there? Hell is where those things are strongest, you know."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhDyLWDME3
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXpNoa2OBY
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLU0xz1cfXf
"True," said Stella. "You can come with me, then. Lucius is invited to come and see you whenever he feels like it."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVwzwnFAXh
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzenBfBkbzH
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYX3skRr1H0
"Really?" Lucius now looked at Stella, and I couldn't help but notice the stars in his eyes.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9ziENP0tK
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9LFkxL4nE
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGZQLIhcaT
"I'm not yet ready to go back there yet," I said, my eyes now downcast. "You know how I left. I feel if I do, I might make things worse all over again."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe62tAusnVm
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QvNLZCumP
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7PH0xKPFB
Stella put her hand on my shoulder. "You worry too much," she said. "You've no idea how the High Order misses you. Mei and Ryan miss you the most, though they won't admit it."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtibkfpMfxE
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NGtzYxsTs
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACQ5KSyQkj
I laughed as memories of Mei, Ryan, and the rest of the High Order came to mind. "Trust me; I miss you all a lot. Now isn't the time. I do want to go there, but not because I'm in trouble. I want to go there when I'm ready to, and now doesn't feel like the best time."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMBW3yrXQ8
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEq8HrEJTd
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8EE7Khtr1
"Okay, but you had better keep your promise to me. You and I have a lot of catching up to do."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWTNDQepBX
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHxZqvAbV5
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekqDX1ac22
"What actually happened back there?" Lucius asked.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pzRAxfCLZ
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0EmBKikrI
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuuTFSVi7x
Stella and I turned to look at him. "It's a long story," we answered.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeQjyiEb9S
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKe8iY7eNvb
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNTzPWXRmZ
"Don't worry, one of these days I will tell you," I said, giving him a smile.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWSZ0Avw2w
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9RYH5g3Bk
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIetjR1Vo0Z
"So, what are you going to do now?" Lucius asked.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwE9X3oByig
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZ54hjC4bW
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IrLCLgsj2
"Well, I'm still trying to figure something out," I said as I averted my eyes to the clear blue skies. "I not only have the shadow monster, but the Golden Elite on my tail. And it won't be long till they both catch up to me."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOohnMiZxSz
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozMCOYAHhK
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0T6wWQKhES
"Gosh, I forgot about those guys," said Stella, shaking her head. "And we have their soldier."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5gNi3yYs7
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQIz50pwgg
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkCTnhVPAw
"They will catch up, that's for sure. They probably know of his location right about now."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDX13az2fM
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzXOE4pshH
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRZPM4pHun
"How are you sure?" Lucius asked.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWovx4vqG0X
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIO0rAfcDC
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RPMyHjUPu
"They implant GPS tracking devices on their soldiers. I would've removed it before teleporting here, but just like I said before, there's something that I want to figure out first."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJqY4xXh5O
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHa9cA5oEZu
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7r2n5DUF7Y
"And what could that be?" Stella asked.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjba7CHBBPN
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1tydhsESa
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6tI1XFBO5
I take a deep breath, the salty air filling my nose so much that I can taste it on my tongue. "Isn't it weird that the Golden Elite and the shadow monster came after me on the same day and at the same time?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5utXnyNjp
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosVO7MZaHo
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Od29KDPUb
I looked at the two, and they looked curious and somewhat confused. I should really think over my questions sometimes, but it seems old habits die hard.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvuaBBhUKp
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0bwEnPbD6
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcZx8rvAEP
"I never thought of it," said Stella. "That's an excellent question. Why come attack you at the same time?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquJkxI3lW5
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2SyI8ozfr
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrBwBrqj9A
"Why don't we just ask that Golden Elite soldier?" Lucius suggested. "He must have the answer."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItGcu7nT6r
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SmTttLouw
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFjXu4IdmY
"Don't," I said. "It won't take you anywhere. He is just following orders, and he doesn't know what the higher-ups are really planning. For soldiers like him, they are told that supernatural beings are the cause of all destruction in the world, and it's their mission to eradicate all of them."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYaSzqKuMt
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAMGsccNs9
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yFo04eKU9
"That's why I hate those guys," said Stella. "They can be so annoying. It's like they really don't know the difference between good and evil."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDYNRO7WHv
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4bS744NBc
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmY07HaEAN
"That's because those in control tell them so, and they believe it. I won't lie, but it's annoying to me too."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBH7SJF6MNO
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4Ihw3dEWJ
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgowLTosKf
"But if he won't help us, how are we going to find out?" Lucius asked. "The Golden Elite won't hesitate to have you in their clutches if you were to ask them. And I don't think Death would say anything either."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCucWoA62Ic
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbd73bILyk
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1X4GmtdxC
"True," I said. "That's why I was thinking that maybe your father might know."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsegZT9q32F
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SqKwkCkA7
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDxPLAPnZz
"My father?" Lucius now looked perplexed. "What would he know about all this?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrOkxhqg97
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlrpxqtPYe
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNa2t9KqWkq
"I didn't want to tell you this, but I feel there's something he's keeping from me. I think he knows why all of this is happening."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8WRVwrFDo
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsTPS53eya
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwU99MkpPB
"Then we better ask him," said Stella. "And we better go check on that Golden Elite friend of yours. Now that I think of it, I shouldn't have left him alone with Lucifer."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm89cLZezz
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oI9suzuDM
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDGC7kI1Wy
I quickly turned around to go back into the hall when, all of a sudden, my hairs at the back of my head were raised, stopping me in my tracks. I quickly turned back to the open balcony, where Stella and Lucius remained standing.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJX5AWKl8V0
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGUNBYJPpI

Before they could react, a strong gush of wind came from the beach, knocking Stella and Lucius to the side. I, on the other hand, fell backwards to the floor. Before I could do anything, I felt something tight wrap around my throat like a thick rope, pinning me to the floor. I scratched at it, trying to get it loose.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYoausYxSG

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xx9ZWh3aM
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPuTyR9Oo5
My eyes widened with fright as I saw staring down at me the cold, dark eyes of a supernatural being I considered one of my biggest menaces. Aside from Death, of course.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zNXbi1aWC

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoWkpV2bIh
I struggled as I felt the rope around my neck tighten. I was almost out of breath as I tried to loosen it. That's just how he operates. He can tie anyone down with his black tentacles that he can summon from anywhere when they least expect it and kill them on the spot if he wants to.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OnqjzL9YY
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSS19khnw8
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdseQpWTSmH
"Oh, Diana," he said in a singsong voice as he knelt down on one knee, still with his dark, cold eyes fixed on me. "It's been so long, hasn't it? And of all places, you end up showing yourself out here."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6FsY8v4u3

He stretched out his hand to touch my face, and I could feel the cold silver rings he wore around his fingers pierce me like needles. I tried to flinch, but I couldn't.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA7oIn1zAS
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQJP6wRYXX

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v0weJ1LG2
He straddled my waist as a slick smile appeared on his handsome face. He bent his face towards me as he answered:416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXYkCVjfzJ

I kicked and trashed my legs around, wishing for the chance to kick him. There's only one way I'm going to get out of this.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPZf7NRr4e

"Diana?" I hear Lucius call out to me, sounding a little groggy. I can't see him from where I lie, but I knew he wasn't going to like what he was going to see.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7XMRfhNnh

My left hand, holding the black tentacle around my neck, instantly lit up in flames. I was careful not to burn my skin. The tentacle burned in an instant, and before the person on top of me could react, I held the collar of his black leather jacket and brought him closer to my head, making hard contact with his nose. Then I quickly tossed him aside, and he flew, hitting his back first onto the wall.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz28QyJ3TBL

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zREBmM5N3
I quickly got up from the floor, but he was quicker than I was, and we stood there looking at each other. He had his hand on his nose, checking to see if he was bleeding. Luckily enough, he wasn't. My left hand was still dancing in flames, ready for his attack.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9g4enzKZq

I turned to see Lucius look at his older brother in bewilderment. Even when I didn't show it, I was just as surprised as Lucius at first.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5ZrhgsoDD
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfC18Ydw7iC

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwj4PCd9Jh
"Brother?" Stella asked as she came into view on the balcony. She was holding her left shoulder since she was also pushed aside when Lucero flew in. Lucero really did know how to make an entrance.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCU7slkdt4

His wavy black hair that reached his shoulders flew in the air as he turned his head to look at me. Anyone would've passed him as a celebrity model with his chiselled cheekbones and broad jawline. As cold and dark as his eyes were, anyone would find them mesmerizing. It's usually how he catches his prey—his eyes. He could lure you into doing anything he wanted, even with immortals. If you're strong enough to fight his quest for control, then well and good. If not, you're like a fish on a hook, and you'll need a miracle to break through his spell.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAabWhmYXxK

"It's why I only wanted to grab you and leave." Lucero took a step closer towards Lucius and me. "But I didn't realize that seeing you after such a long time would make me pause for a bit and slip up."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsysfJRxk1

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZJQSOehb4
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mtnVyJAYv
"Oh, no, she doesn't," said Lucifer as he surpassed Lucius and me. "Diana is my guest, and you're uninvited. As soon as you entered my territory, I would've had you captured and locked up. But out of courtesy, I didn't, so I'm kindly asking you to leave."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnIZkQpyGp
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBXsyrc5G2
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCV4uY02IH0

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1QKWQcKKC
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxvZa0Xhvd
I noticed Stella looked a little confused by that last statement. That's because she didn't know what Lucero was capable of. Most of us supernatural beings have common abilities like strength and speed. But there are those with so much skill and precision that they can surpass mere supernatural beings. Lucero's speed is like nothing I've ever seen. I may be on par with him, but it always felt like he was one step ahead.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKp7PAFTwP

"I'm not leaving without Diana," said Lucero, standing his ground. His eyes found mine, and he winked. I blushed and furrowed my eyebrows at the same time. It's funny that he had such an effect on me.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSskk5zhNSY

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtB3BMSYaCE
"You aren’t protecting me if I continue to run. I need to face the problem. If you must know, I've got a shadow monster after me, and I don’t think wherever you take me is going to protect me from it. That’s if there is always daylight. Not to mention the Golden Elite will be knocking at the door at any moment."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdIEBUgSGl

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeotQRsumNY
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8o0eI2hRTJ
Bingo. He does know what’s going on because he doesn’t look the least bit surprised that a shadow monster and the Golden Elite are after me. I thought I would be able to ask Lucifer why all this was happening. Lucero seems like he could, but he can be difficult. I look up at Lucius, and I start to wonder if his coming to see me was nothing but a coincidence and not because he thought the same as Lucero. He did look a little perplexed when I brought up the issue before Lucero suddenly appeared. However, you can never know.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfHe92NZ6d

"No one is fighting in my house!" Lucifer’s booming voice shook the whole house. "Are you crazy? Diana is already bringing an army, and you want chaos in my own house? You can go outside if you want.

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AWc1iZbNU

"Then this house will just have to burn," I said, extinguishing the flames on my hands. "Lucius is right. Lucero isn’t going to budge so easily, and I’m not going to go with him if he is going to lock me up like he did last time. If we have to reason here, he can help me out by staying to figure out how to handle what’s out there."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNllKraODg

Lucero scoffed. "That you are scum through and through," he said. Lucifer hissed at him. "I hate to admit it, but Lucius is right. I’m not going anywhere without Diana. And since I care about her so much, I would rather be here protecting her." He looked at me. "After this, you and I should get on an island together.

"Well, true," he said as I noticed him raise an eyebrow. "But you had gone quiet for a while; a lot of people thought you were dead or had moved on to the other world. Your aura is different, too.

Lucifer opened the door to the study, and we all walked in. My eyes quickly searched for Mutale, whom we had left behind sitting on the same couch. Aside from his broken leg, he was perfectly fine. Lucifer didn't do anything sinister to him after all.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFbHI3xpXk

"Who is this?" Lucero asked, looking at Mutale. The look on his face could tell that he recognized him through the black outfit that he wore. "You’re a Golden Elite soldier. How are you still alive?"

"So whatever the case, they will need you alive," said Lucifer, looking at me. "What do you really plan to do exactly?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUd6fkYrnUS
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6S7TOQC1m
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75NRld0rN3
"If you don’t mind," I give Lucifer a look. "There’s something that has been bothering me since I came here, and I just happened to have told Stella and Lucius by the balcony before Lucero came in."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6o6DMBBr0n
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpBp4uk74E
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHQzpWcfpN
Silence befell the room. It felt like no one was willing to speak, as I felt their eyes on me. Lucifer had an eyebrow raised, and the smile on his face showed that he had a feeling of what was coming.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6ibOG4m53
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pkbf0nxiv
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbvpBopwb6
"You were always a curious living thing," he said as he leaned back on his chair. "I have a feeling, though, that it’s a question I would find rather uncomfortable."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeCecWalVd
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSuZtQ7d4N
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4lPj22JEW
"My life depends on it. What’s so important today that I have the Golden Elite and that shadow monster after me? Something is up, and I know you know a lot more than you’re saying."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGj4rVpIdYo
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJboLJQTYBt
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcm7eF9C0P
Lucifer smiled this time, and that left me wondering if he was going to say anything. Instead, he looks behind me. Lucero and Lucius were the only people who remained standing. I had a funny feeling that he wasn’t just looking at Lucero, but Lucius too.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR17ZNK2Ih
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNyd4rMny7
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5K0KM9ZNz
"I’ll let those two explain," said Lucifer. "Besides, they are the ones who came after you in the first place."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwBgR5YPcI
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSHQXN3FPE
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7weFnteUwE
"I don’t understand why she has to ask me, dad," said Lucius. "I also don’t know what’s going on."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVE1IgZEwi1
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaknqjiimJ
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WJsuonFYZ
Lucifer smirked. "But you so happened to show up at her doorstep to take her far away from the shadow monster and the Golden Elite. Can you explain that?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigSUaJjrYh
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4H5NhAHCu
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnlypRuAJq
I turned to look at Lucius, and I found him looking down at me. He opened his mouth to try to say something, but no words came out. Could it be that he knows and has been lying to me?416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrjCJpVNtv
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhwYCEq4aw
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHj2wuWOCN
"Aren’t you going to say anything?" I asked.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppdEtJaQHd
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmPFzNnbcm
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRE6y46xmu
"I’m only going to say this," he started to say. "The only reason I came is that somebody tipped me off that something bad was going to happen to you. And I know no one has known about your whereabouts till now, but this person did."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0dN2RishR
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WDPF2ojHT
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mgXmyxWTV
"Someone tipped you off?" I now stand up from my seat. "Who could that be?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZridZThT2q
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2SW02tBBv
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqbGzCIDex
"I was also tipped off," said Lucero, "and was given the location of this place. Could it be the same person?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUqcBzpq9k
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB9ElxXTie
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUxIMfHvTG
"Strange, who could be doing this?" Stella asked. "And how? And why inform you two about the locations she’s been?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrscvR7stXR
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jEi3jfs82
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTvhneugu8
"That’s not the only question," I said. "Who else could the person be informing about my whereabouts at this very moment?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡds4oPcc33u
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡto9ONXJFZg
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbAFOaTCNR
"Well, I can assure you that no one can come into this territory uninvited," said Lucifer. "That’s if they aren’t as stupid as Lucero."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr6cL1XFXv
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvTUiZveuI
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPVTo8WLOU
Lucero chuckled. "I am my father’s son."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkzZdEiJzL
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhX40KXRwks
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSlt7u6nna
"Okay, that’s fine and all, but who is this person anyway?" I asked. "How did they communicate with you?" I looked at Lucius.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNlQC2hxou
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfM3fcZcFKE
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQYAi1bL0A
"My phone," he answered. "I tried calling the person back, but I couldn’t even get through."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVpgPapEue
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2TdO67Szn
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rmqtWVhf1
"Same here," said Lucero.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9Jh8Zbi9t
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQkiTK9tO7
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHh1pa12hF0
My eyes start to fly around the room as though looking for something that isn’t there. This doesn’t look good. How could the person have known where I was to begin with? And if they had known, why wait all this time?416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GZAx1ZV1H
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KsmQ99E3n
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCMNNff1Gg
I felt like my head was going to burst. There's so much to take care of all at once, and now there's someone out there who might be a threat. Why send Lucius and Lucero to me? And who else will they be sending my way? Will they be friends or foes? Could it be that the same person might have told the Golden Elite about my location?416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBw4TIYyc4
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ylFKayx4i
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7n1a0OJvuW
"Today keeps getting worse by the second," I said. I turn to look at Lucifer.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSPcqEHlPN
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEFXvoSGYW
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBo5zRo5mOe
"Well, it seems pretty clear why your sons are here," I said. "Now answer my question. Why is all this happening on this day?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGdGGkjaoT
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcMday2Cj9
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl0aK0dYy1
"And why do you think I know the answer to that?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTw05IJVZbd
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxdXeBNA9V
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26qvdudfow
I put my hands on the table to look straight into his eyes. "Because I know you know," I said. "You know why all this is happening. And you're afraid to tell me because I might find out something about myself that I know nothing about, isn't it?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDmArlFlNG
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8wzhA3qkC
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIX0kQ7TqGC
Lucifer and I continued to look at each other for what felt like an eternity. I wanted to break eye contact with him, but I had to show that I was serious. Just now, he was trying to divert my attention elsewhere to his sons, and he planned it carefully. Did he somehow know about the person who tipped them off? And that mentioning this will draw my attention away from the question? He might be the devil, but somehow he seems more like an all-knowing being when you least expect it.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0aGiJukfo
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrEIooobDk
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhzl4iLXLA
He finally smiled. "You seem to be getting smarter every time," he said. "If I were your parents, I would be really proud."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QPen5aUpm
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUMPrGROqz
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ0KAwcq2W
"Being smart isn’t going to help me get out of this situation if you aren’t going to tell me what I need to know," I said. "What is going on?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYdNn5UOoF
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilEUd4Ge9M
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXvEeE6Djy
"Nothing," he smiled. "You are the most wanted supernatural, aren’t you?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayU7EDgF6i
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7MVGDhTqP
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04HtcZT3eH
"I already know that. But you aren’t telling me what I need to know."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQlya6wjvG

"You’re special, Diana. Until you accept it, you’ll realize that you’re capable of many things."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8iqsTACcU
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXLkt8tdRd
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITq1m6jy5S
Here we go again. The ‘I am special’ speech that I have always hated. Stella and the others at Butterfly Island have given me such speeches before. I wish someone could tell me, but time is running out. The Golden Elite could be outside the barrier of the Devil’s territory right now, and there’s no telling what they are going to do.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC8nyEkvHy
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxz80HzLMvx
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXmsNr8dAO
"Diana, we aren’t going anywhere with this," said Stella as she came to stand right beside me and hold my shoulder. "We can figure that out later. We better prepare a plan to face the Golden Elite if they attack."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgFLXUtY5M
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPLbISqNNi
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7f4DtrZM5R
"Not to mention that we have to be wary about whoever might be coming from anywhere," said Lucius.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkh3AbA0h2F
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5xL3YqLtF
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1Ns9MZG3z
I lowered my head and sighed. They were right. If I had it in me, I was going to give Lucifer a piece of my mind. But I can’t since I’m in his territory, and that would only attract unwanted attention elsewhere. I straighten up and look at Lucifer.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnR22SZ5IkZ
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0ScffARCZ
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn9aTUlhYR
"This isn’t over. You do know that, right?" I asked.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVn5jQEB8Dc
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHl9gG8rlFZ
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkWg89ubzY
Lucifer scoffed. "You keep asking the same question, Diana," he said. "But haven’t you realized that the only reason you’ve never gotten the answer you're looking for is because you keep asking the wrong people?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18ty8yZHOk
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfaEHy1mdX
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8A2Bp9pMS
My eyes widened. Isn't he the right person to ask? Now isn’t the time to think about who would be willing to give me the answers I so desperately need. I have to plan to prepare for the worst right now.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KzwUYhiKY
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvFGyXtxKu
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0LxYAOswc
I turn away from him. "Let’s get to planning," I said, shaking off the uneasy feeling I had. I turn to Mutale. "You are going to help us."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJJSDrOqOz
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOqnBRehLT
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbzBRgPIfb
"And if I refuse?" Mutale asks.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtQiO6EzH3
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HPBfMoIE2
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHYkSloHJG
"I don’t like hurting people, but I will let Lucifer do whatever he wants with you back in hell," I noted.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksVbhYQ2Vq
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eizuebNyi
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaAfIn4Gdl
Lucero looked at Mutale and chuckled. "This is going to be fun," he said.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgAKs1EqCN
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvvJS6VPNt
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglXIhxlWnj
"Alright, I hope you've got everything figured out, Diana," said Lucius.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuzJM7W1dC
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6e6vDFXlu
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7kJysQnCb
"Not everything," I said. "I have a feeling that a fight will be inevitable."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6UzKthBId
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8buh076L0W
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMNpCShmyN
"I would consider a war breaking out," said Lucifer. We all look at him. "What? You have to consider the possibility, right?"416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVv7P0ARsp
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUuJIIrX0H
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6BdjldfFF
"Stop joking around, dad," said Lucius. "A war is the last thing we need, and you don’t want it to begin in your backyard."416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR23fSV8bU
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7EGmhPiYL

416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJzxcNIIix
I felt Lucifer’s eyes at the back of my head as I turned back around to face the others. I had joked about the Golden Elite starting a war earlier. Now that Lucifer mentions it, a chill runs down my spine. There's no hiding from it.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8j1iH7Mh6I
