Helen hid in a brown cupboard with grief, watching her parents being battered by the powerful ones. She couldn't help but release tears. Her weak looking mother signalled to her to remain silent for she would also be killed if noticed. Helen could not take it anymore. She could no longer take a glance of the scene. Knowing the victims had no chance of surviving, the murderers vanished. Helen dashed out of the cupboard to her dying parents. She was speechless and almost cried her heart out. Her mother held her hands and let out a lazy smile
"Make me proud, my love" she moaned
Helen approached her dead father and let out a loud cry. Her family were one of the powerless beings of their world, making them quite vulnerable but Helen had had enough. She Rose to her feet, wiping off her tears with vengeance shining bright in her piercing blue eyeballs. The only man she loved was also killed by the powerful ones. She was tired of being bullied. Only one thing kept ringing in her head. Vengeance.
Immediately, Helen began to prepare for the journey of her life. She went in search of the Zels. The Zels were supernatural immortals banished from anywhere in the world. They one had the motive of taking over the world. They were dark and dangerous forces. Their life had a connection to the seers of the world, making them almost impossible to destroy. Destroying the Zels would only lead to the downfall of the seers and the entire world. They were magically held down in a cave in the forests by Axel, the old priest five centuries in the past. The Zels were mythical creatures sharing a body. It was so tough that it could shatter a diamond. Their strength was unattainable.
Helen knew there could be consequences seeking the Zels but she didn't care. She felt she had nothing to lose. The motive of vengeance had taken over her completely. After walking for half an hour, she was exhausted. Twilight had befallen. She laid her body across a huge tree and pulled off a strap she tied earlier on a drinking bottle. Letting out a lazy yawn, she drank hurriedly. Helen wasn't ready to give up. It was already cloudy and drizzling. Helen lifted her brittle body and continued her journey. After midnight, she could have a sight of the cave where the Zels dwell. She was soaked and her sight were hazy. Fear gripped her as she walked towards the cave slowly. Helen could here their deep groans as she stepped into the cave, swarming with vampire bats. She had no idea where the Zels were held down precisely as she went anywhere her legs said was right. The groans grew louder and louder as Helen felt it could be the end of her. She continued searching
"Why do you seek us, you mortal"one of the Zels said with a thunderous voice, eyeing Helen with displeasure and disgust. Helen could almost hear her heartbeat
"I seek your help"she stammered, watching her steps
The Zels, growling with annoyance asked her what she wanted
"I want revenge"she said. She told the Zels how her loved ones were murdered by the powerful ones
The Zels had waited for this moment a long ago. Someone to complete their motive. The downfall of the world. They laughed hysterically after listening to Helen's story. Suddenly, there was silence. Helen wasn't comfortable with it
"We will give you powers. Ultimate powers"the Zels assured and Helen smiled reluctantly. Out of nowhere, a black heart appeared in front of Helen the Zels began to cast an epic spell while Helen trembled. She had no idea what the Zels had in mind and a part of her felt it could be her last day on Earth. The heart suddenly pierced through Helen's chest, making her scream tumultuously. Thunder crashed in the sky as rained poured down. She wailed painfully as the Zels could only laugh like they had won. Helen then fell to the ground helplessly. Her breath was so loud and her eyes grew totally black
"Welcome, new born" the Zels uttered.
