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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9nkjzP5Qi
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoMKtmXZjd
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzS75FZ9Eu
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc5NUKLOqJ

"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?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ232xlHIzUs
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcEoY9L9QH
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBGafjs0gU
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkhGCXWIFf
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHodpOxHt2
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoghDPKNPew
"Pepani (sorry)," she apologized. "I was looking for my phone, have you seen it?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7mFnkW6ke
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz6YIMgNLx
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YOPdXIcNl
"Mm?" her husband can’t believe this. "Who do you want to call at this time?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeC4Hij4rFR
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wT0JtzIPl
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOVSa4U16g
"It's urgent," she said as she pushed the covers aside to get out of bed.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7B6fQyGLQ9

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQC2bqviaRt
"Check your dressing table," her husband muttered as he dropped his head back onto the pillow. "That’s where you left it last night."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzFGrN1pU3
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIrYoiSxBf
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgarC4f9dv
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMKIyhpFzJ

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfHG1Ry5Pw
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmdHteZRSs
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQTRqdiEYx
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9WxXzsXl7
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BGgpKShcH
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphiNSdCJcY
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMYz7Hqn03
"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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8OsURnyXj
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWWoSmVwBp
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7B3Ehik26W
After finding the person’s line, she called it. This time it went through. She only hoped that the person would answer.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUdVl3EqWZ
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFNtDqXPHA
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEPMTIy2ap
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiFWrpbk8Y
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjXyXuvJbI
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRer2L7gEgD
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4x5p4eOxhU

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa9oI13cW7
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVi2QPySzOL
"So?" Diana’s mother asked. "I just want to know how she’s doing?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBMU2jEVyE
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa21QDUn9uc
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOVbVSUX0k

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHRkUuvvPi
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSeaWsTva0
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YDP9mAryB
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFzX1myVvm
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcYMwyeCjq
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4ziuYH4LL
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHwDNmturA
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RTMlqMyCG
He put his hand on her shoulder. "What could be so different about this one?" he asked.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIl4VGA2L5
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0CObhQnW0
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKW2gICfSyx
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM91KZa3E91
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX7ktmfGVp
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkppnuSf1rm
"I can’t explain, Atake Diana (Father to Diana). Everything about this dream felt real. I feel Diana could be in huge trouble."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjOfSk4YFL
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4rb7jiaXW
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fg7tQ7OkM
"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?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ199UWeSb9U
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKQb8l0P3K
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq69m2Q6FMT
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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZR9hMGmmm
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhiCJ46eqy
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EQ0fgC3B5
"That’s because she’s a teen. You’re forgetting that people at such an age are difficult to make them open up."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMEANNMEsT
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeuxXciett
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSDu7M4FyB
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01yOpJmM3h
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9LXhqcYgO
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrS28L9hqvZ
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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvx0eRdxdc0
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWe58XwCfM

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlwfQSieoG
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVjE4pzIHj
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNxPal36qE
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡek1jHFffhV
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBEOp0VXIS
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAAv8zw1nB

"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." 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFN6uSNk7dv
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVmCLv7m4Q
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrBDWx78Yc
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. 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRQSfpur2Y

"Okay, can I send a message to Katy so that she calls me when she sees it?" she asked. 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcf0yRqZdx

"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." 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdUenMpxbH
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyGLxz1oes
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKf6eWAN9v
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTLkzeM4NY

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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmT0w0P3LRV
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7xBcXSN6q
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLrR0mvPRl
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9e7rUIlR3
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBFk9mP7Ny
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkIbgI8OcA

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6QHFaD7QS
"And what if you aren’t?" came a voice.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XsR66q1lY
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE4ZFb1vOY
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLawbXDNaZ
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNxUf0umIv
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKNuazIe2Z
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJWYy3rDEW
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hN4o4TQH3
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yXIN97omH
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLZCIPAj85
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdQjwh1aGJ
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYPyrqdG6L
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0qB0quGE3
"Don’t freak out," came the voice again, this time in front of her. "I want you to slowly turn towards me."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6dUjs9knA
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkz2JoiiSeT
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyGDsDFDOH
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXFdlD18ta
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0sqLKEmw5
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnpqSySlSi
"Hello, Namatama," came a female voice behind the mask. "Long time no see."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZTO0xyjfG
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0u2yCo8IG
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbjlxEsoW4
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGf9gewh0Xo
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyVvX0TXpB
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhPQOIzxXQ
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqupIgAO3Y

"I know," said the lady in front of her. "But aren’t you up thinking about your daughter, Diana?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAsgburIOL
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsB4NTm43M
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lz3HvPa1C
Namatama froze, looking at the lady before finding her voice. "What do you know about her?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydmuMOLIH8
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCwzDroGMs
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUrfg0XQLq
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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBzveipaJs
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEG1zc282N

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDkF1I25ba
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsda6qkjnf
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." 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sTgdXEwe5
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpYD5V82xc
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSuDip9f0Q

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgLJFuGWVW
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcH0C07CZtX

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IJeei0nv5
"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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oyS5AlS2u

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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApNynK7saY
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2nyUpmLAy

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?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBikHA3nytH

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1ENhC5RX7
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:389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEMOwUFdXN
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzmNojQhJc
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9GVxXwkTr
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mt3UoVfIk
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WZdIle4xD
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CzDjeTZRH

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05HfFCpqrt
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6MgDKD8jI
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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZ2naofIWR
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7lBEIkYaG

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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAQnHE6ltg

"Namatama, what did I tell you about…?" came her husband, and he paused upon seeing his wife on the floor. "What are you doing?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJQn219uxI
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVvdjetDqG
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EJ7XK85xb
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAD0R8jgCx

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

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnGopLrDtw

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX2x6EZ5N1
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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkomXMysKH

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHOWHftsBR
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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPEUhI8kBv

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKrMUwTDrl
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BhKWEvlVJ
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlNIqseot8
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrSh3bDSFC
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKQTMCMS4z
"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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDz0DUSOey
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtADwgjSTqN
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVanW0dW3Hp
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. 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQR2uOjCJW
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GEDMeIPAj
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhh9PZYKM6U
"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?" 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpmD0fC2co
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4shPo7ob1F
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04sC9gEi00
"Like my father put it, it’s frustrating and depending on what level it is, it gets painful," Lucius answered.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvD7vCucBZ
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRPtR9ku2L
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TFmuAcGBx

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdC4FdYNnE
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BhUlvBiSs
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNe46MONmE
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFYIIeE6Y4

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhE4h288i8t
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazWUjwjRqm
"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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZZIL3twTA
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZA8TIDt20
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYrg4jPtCc
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9UfM5RieO

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcXQCg4lwL

"What happened to him?" I asked. "Did he die or something?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rREEiasej
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnT9Q0wN5oB
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMQwEotFe5
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVgGQTOCTe
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazG7etLvsA
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMi9MwPBYe
"True," said Stella. "No one has actually heard from him in ages after leaving Her Highness in charge. I actually have never met him."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcm68AfmSAL
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzPumQt9XO
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYorhDFDEe
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcsBWtwRMj

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxwmqx3Tci
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnzGyOLNwd
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bBoYPw3L4
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSufqUEtvJ
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMJqxz2JQM
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QdFvMEbZV
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaJYyp3ehw
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNC4FC1QlF

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9g6ApFQeZ
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldA1I99w5s
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2UMmoBdCR
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kR9B6rWwT
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOjSguFHb9
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvM66uU95a
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAShWN9BOji
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjUb6JJSu1
"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?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLPRch5R1B
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ERsycpA5A
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAJaZGaEvh
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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAxdEFweM4
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9vgcrHVPG
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgew17nUM2A

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWwP5qaQYq
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMnqSsRn9N
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnodjU8uza

"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. 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhtLC4Sl2B

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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8SPAdSVMa

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpC1AwT235Y
"No, no," Mutale muttered shaking his head. "This is a lie. This book holds nothing but lies."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWZ78YCm0l

"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1twNIkEfQn

"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?"389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzG0WSsiPG
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRq9LbYO1gu

Lucifer dragged Mutale back to his seat, making him land onto the chair. This time, gently.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeSCQfzKrz

"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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABIypqA2Wx
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxIpFm4zNJ
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaQZtrftVE
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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhg0rimm0n2

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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4do54glU1
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmrmAkOQEn
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DOV6lqJya
"What does this mean?" I asked Lucifer as I pointed at the other names. "I can’t seem to recognize the words."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeqddNfmT6

"Whoever has control over shadow monsters has his name automatically written in the book," he answered as he looked at the page.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0AJ21Bph7
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWv388ocJ51

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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJIkTnebNT
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5YK7cJVJI
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qRw9bjzvb
"He’s right," said Lucius. "I'm not surprised if he so happens to have sent the shadow monster after you."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYBkvDPdkV
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbDeCX7ep5
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8EPVOPU3L
"I’m worried about number 2," said Stella. "The thought of Him sending a shadow monster after Diana creeps me out."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMPbbB3Chj
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9F8DzS6x80
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvHQLE7aDv
"Don’t say that," Mutale spoke up. "He can never do such a thing. That book says nothing but lies."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnx0juiOit
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qAipDoPKX
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9O5ftHEDc6
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAhz9PyDMP
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgAfonc1Ad
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxKpvkwfpc
Everyone now turned their attention to Lucifer. So did Mutale.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRessyzNH2

"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TgVtLryJS

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6NUl3KPhr
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwnbRgiIMz
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSLREoOg5v

My heart felt at ease. Stella looked relaxed and Mutale exhaled in relief. 389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFJ7zRy7Rk

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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduxThBtg2V

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTCsnpZqzz
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TmvSpus9R
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLbh0tU9b1
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvO9oVDSeL4
Apart from the help, we all look at Lucifer with a questioning look. This place just happens to be one of his many hellholes.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdQtC2jTnv

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.389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4gIlHroUw

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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYtpkLXttJ
389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIhTjNiSLP

389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNRQkcFR2k
"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."389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G5DShthsy

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:389Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLT9qPlbVHZ
