Lionel shook and shifted in the electric chair and moved to the bell tied to the wall.
Come on,Lionel,you can do this.
He grabbed the bell hard a d sighed.
Since the chair didn't want to let go of him,he would let go of the chair.
But,any false movement, the chair would zap the hell out of him.
He gave a good glance at Hus fingernails.
Sharp like a blade.
He remembered when he was thirteen and he mistakenly sliced a hog with his finger in an attempt to catch it.
It was not a pretty sight.
And,it haunted his dreams.
But,it couldn't work for chains or would it?
He managed to free his finger and pressed his finger hard on the chains.
It slices open, the entire chains lying at a pool at his feet.
It worked.
He gently got off the chair and grabbed the rope attached to the bell.
He climbed,until he was halfway up but then something caught his eye.
A glimmering jewel lying in the eye of a skeleton.
That's an amethyst, a major power generator.
I would be a demigod with that.
Lionel looked up,he was so close to the roof.
He decided to kill his greed and slammed his fist right through the roof and jumped out,taking to his heels.
Hosea barged in immediately and saw the sunlight piercing into the room onto his face.
He gasped when he saw the ripped apart chains.
A dark,black smoke came out of him and he entered deep into the shadows.
He ground his teeth"Mark my words,Lionel,I will find you and when I do I will silence you"

The seal hung above the gates of West Tower, Veronica admired the golden seal.
It was way more elegant than the seal of sirens.
She knocked on the silver encrusted gate.
This was it.
"And you are?" The cruel faced guard asked.
"I am mistress Maria, here to meet his Majesty the king as we met at a gala" She lied.
"The king has not placed an appointment with mistress Maria"
"It is a surprise visit to the king" Veronica said,ignoring the sweat trickling down her forehead.
"She is pretty, she has to be a mistress" A silent voice mumbled from behind the gate.
"Shut Up!" The cruel faced guard boomed.
"You may come in,mistress"
Veronica walked in with very elegance she held and raised up the ruffles in her dress.
Carl removed his coat and hat and walked to the gate but got blocked by two spears crossing each other.
"And you are?" The guards asked,at the same time.
"The duke of Ellimtown" Carl replied.
"There is no Ellimtown" The guards hit Carl with the butt of his spear and he flew backwards.
He crashed, sliding on the rough and rugged ground.
Carl's gaze fell to a pile of stones and he grinned.
He hurled the stones in quick array at the two guards.
The guards didn't miss a beat, dodging every stone.
"Sir,u advise you leave before we..." The cruel faced guard was hit by a huge  sized stone and crashed to the ground with a thud.
He dropped,blood gushing from his fresh wound.
The other guard grabbed a spear and threw it at Carl.
Carl bent to pick another stone but the spear smashed right through his skull to the other side.
Carl dripped to the ground, blood dripping from his head.

"Mistress Maria, you say,are you sure I didn't meet you at a gala or party?" King alfion questioned, eyeing her.
"We met at duke Richards gala at  his mansion" Veronica hoped Duke Richard was a real duke.
"Oh yes,duke Richard, but I remember it was mistress Nelly I met not Maria" King alfion explained,his eyes glued to her body.
"Yes,I had a name change" Veronica swung her silver coloured hair to the side and he grinned.
He couldn't wait to have her.
King alfion reached out  his staff and Veronica places her hand on the jewel in the middle.
"It would be my pleasure to be one of your mistresses, Your Majesty"
The  old mistresses all arranged in a straight line backed to the wall scoffed at her.
They were called the Merry wives of West Tower.
They were six in all,they were called Lora,Merryweather,Genevieve, Luna,Eva,and the oldest and first Merry wife Beth.
"This is His Majesty's worst decision yet"Eve spoke up, hissing under her breath.
" How would he pick that tiny flea over us,I don't get it"Luna replied,eyeing king Alfion and Veronica.
"He even gave her his staff,he  never even gave me" Lora said.
"Alfie will never even spend a night with her,mark my words" Beth scoffed harshly making the other Merry wives to spare a glance at her.
"She could be a threat, a massive one at that" Merryweather commented.
"What a foolish comment,Merry! That tiny flea wouldn't stand a chance against us than to be a threat" Beth yelled, furiously.
"I'm sorry,my duchess" Merryweather apologized.
Beth cursed under her breath and spat.
"Changing the subject, how do we get rid of her?" Luna asked.
"That's of no need,she isn't a threat, give his Majesty three weeks and she's gone" Eva said, and then paused"isn't  that right,beth Darling? "
Beth didn't reply but just gazed at King Alfion.
Soon,would she repay Alfion what he did to her and her family.
Soon, Soon.....

Hosea cursed under his breath and threw an ungodly gaze at the tiny, weak looking man in front of him.
"How dare you let the most valued man in the whole Glover verse escape?" The tint man yelled at Hosea who didn't even flinch a beat.
How wouldn't I?
"He escaped somehow, someway,I don't know  how but somehow"Hosea replied, his hand tracing around the back of his head.
" I need  him,get him to me if you don't, I silence you!"The man screamed, spit flying out of his mouth to Hosea's face.
"I'll try my best sir" Hosea hissed.
