The Revival Of Ra

52

Rea's pov
Vol.2:
"What else did she say?" Rea shook her head worriedly and ran her fingers through her hair.

"I don't know. She kept mumbling a lot of stuff about how it always tells her to kill herself and how she doesn't know what to do and then I told her to calm down."

"What is she doing now?" Apollo asked with a sigh.

Rea frowned, still concerned about her sister. "Sleeping."

"Okay, that's good, but we don't know for how long. It's hard to say what's going to happen or how long it will take before she delivers that child, it may not even take up to nine months."

Vlad spoke up for the first time since him, Apollo and Hermes had met up with Rea. "Does your sister realise that she's currently carrying a dangerous reincarnated god who will destroy the world in her womb?"

Rea shivered at the thought and shook her a head, a soft "no" escaping her lips.

"Is she aware of anything that could cause problems for us in the future?" Vlad asked again, this time looking Rea in the eye who fidgeted under his intense gaze. Apollo placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Let down a little, Vlad. It will be better if the girl is unaware."

Vlad shook his head, turning to face Apollo. "No, Apollo. This would only increase her naivety and give Ra the upper hand in this battle. He could easily infiltrate her mind and thinking through the connection they have as she carries him in the form of a child in her womb and use her to do his evil deeds and protect him till he is born."

Hermes nodded. "He's right. It would be easy to use a vessel who's connection with him is as great as a mother's with child."

Rea frowned and spoke up. "If we tell her about this, it will overwhelm her and I don't think it would ever come to that. No way Abby would trust some psychopathic egyptian god over her own sister."

Vlad turned to glare at Rea. "You really have so much trust in the bond you share. Maybe you seem to forget that bond could have deteriorated significantly while you were being foolish—"

"Vlad."

Vlad turned to look at Apollo briefly before shaking his head and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Apollo sighed and turned to a shocked Rea. "I am sorry. He seems to be in a bad mood."

"Look, Rea. We need to deal with this matter as soon as possible and the only way to do that is to tell her what's wrong or terminate her pregnancy."

Rea nodded at Hermes. "As long as it won't hurt her, I would prefer the second choice."

"Are you sure?"

Rea nodded, "Yes."

Abigail's pov

"Abby? Abby, wake up." Abby rolled around in the bed and opened her sore eyes to see her sister.

"How are you feeling?"

Abby blinked a few times, her head aching seriously. "I have a really bad headache."

Rea sighed and placed a hand on her forehead. "Shit, you've got a really bad fever."

Rea sighed and looked around. "Stay here, I'll go ask one of the gods for some help, just drink your juice."

Abby nodded, a small smile pulling at her lip when Rea kissed her head. "Drink your juice and get some rest, okay?"

With that, Rea left the room. Abby sat up and looked down to see orange juice in a glass. She smiled, taking it in her one hand and pulling to her lips, but then a force pulled the drink from her hand and smashed it against the wall.

Don't drink that.

Abby got up fearfully and looked around the room. "Who are you? Show yourself."

It's poisoned.

Abby turned in the direction of the voice to see a little girl. Her black hair loosened and hung over her shoulders, her eyes looking all white with no pupil or iris in it. Her skin so pale, she looked dead. She wore no shoes or sandals and only wore a flowing black dress, a smile pulled at her lips to reveal sharp teeth as she looked straight at Abby.

Hi.

A scream ripped from Abby's throat as she pushed herself against the wall. The door burst open and Rea, Hermes, Vlad and Apollo rushed in.

"What's wrong?" Rea asked and came to her sister who pointed in front of her where the girl once was.

Her hand shook as she sobbed. "S-She was here. She was right here."

"Who?! Who was here, Abby?"

"I-I don't know. But she said that the drink was poisoned."

Rea froze up and didn't speak, turning to look at the gods who watched her.

Abby looked at all of them, then slowly pulled her hand out of Rea's who turned back to her. "Y-You knew? Why would you want to poison me?!"

Rea was about to speak but Abby only heard the same thing in her head.

They want to kill your child.
They want to kill your child.
Abby, they want to kill your child.
You must protect him.

Rea held only Abby. "A-Abby, what's wrong?"

"You want to kill my child! You want to take him away from me!" Abby pulled herself away from her sister and buried her hands into her hair.

You can't let them kill your child.

"I-I can't," Abby whispered. She suddenly felt dizzy and the next minute, she was out cold.
