Last Son: Book One

Chapter 24 Old Church: Azurian Watcher

Samael is standing in the sanctuary, which has little light due to the candlesticks. The flame is flickering, but not caused by wind because there is no wind to enter, therefore. Samael stands still, the candlesticks which are providing light suddenly self-extinguish, and now he is standing in complete darkness. "Adventurous!!! What caused the flames to die!?." Samael- I don't know—but it's getting chilly in here. The pews were thrust in Samael's direction, he quickly dodged the church benches and suddenly a black dim sphere appeared. Samael stands firmly in battle position, his unusual long steel sword resting onto his shoulders, and the pale grey-hovering creatures with black eyes come out of the sphere. Samael- alright!!! We got some action. Samael utilizes his teleportation technique, swinging his mighty unusual long steel sword, killing these creatures, and clearing the area. Samael is searching the church sanctuary, he finds nothing then heads towards the altar and reads from the opened book. "But seek ye first the kingdom of God..." Samael flips the page and continues to read from the book and it says; "Heed to the words of our great prophet, watch out for the one in the East, he that comes from thereof is the evildoers and he that comes from the west, seeks life and righteousness." Abbie appears on his right side and speaks; "What are you thinking about—adventurous?." Samael- it's nothing... just nonsense. Samael is standing upon the altar, suddenly the ground is shaking and then the altar is lowering down like an elevator but what will Samael find beneath the church? Now the altar reaches the ground, Samael steps off the altar, then the altar ascends and Samael is disturbed by what he sees on the walls. The blood, the drawings, symbols of man and beast but what do these descriptions mean? Samael continues to move forward as the Azureus orb provides him with light. Samael- look!!! These creatures—look like the ones in your world. Abbie appears on his right side and replies; "Yes!!! The creatures carved in these walls—just look exactly like the half man and half bat." Samael continues to move forward, he enters another small area but he can't proceed because a red barrier blocks his path. Samael stands firmly in battle position, a black dim sphere appears and those pale grey-hovering with black eyes come out of the dark sphere. Samael swings his unusual long steel sword, shouts, and dashes into battle. "Alright, you sons of... Ahhh." Samael utilizes his teleportation technique to dodge these creatures' deadly claws, swinging his mighty sword and clearing the area. Now the red barrier had disappeared, Samael moved forward with caution and suddenly the church underground sounded with a wicked howl that echoed through this massive dark underground and ready for its unleashing evil but will Samael withstand the darkness? Is he ready for the fight in this holy underground or will this evil end his fate? Now Samael comes to a certain area, it's an odd room beneath the church underground and as soon he enters, the room pathways are blocked by the red barriers. Samael stands firmly in battle position, The ground is shaking and then black dim spheres appear. "Adventurous!!! We got trouble." Samael chuckles and replies; "it's alright... I love it when trouble comes. Especially from these things." Now the room is overrun by those pale grey-hovering black eyes creatures and will Samael escape the evil that surrounds him from every corner in that room? So Samael's fate will be told in the next chapter, his fate is in the hands of this very moment and it can end inside this very odd room or we can see what Samael faces next beneath the church underground.
