I made sure to call up everyone for a meeting. Ran myself to the Library, tried to read everything on Boiling isles, realms, demons, Angels..Could hardly find anything. I had to build up my courage to tell them everything when we all visited the portal.
"Ok! I got the call. And I just was done talking to Delilah from the Cemetery!" Luz came. "We got Good need And Bad news"
"Bad News!" We all screamed.
"Bad news is she isn't sure about the whole Demon Caleb situation." She muttered.
"Ah!" We all Frustrated. "Good news! Typhras was bid, which means we have more time."
We all Phewed.
"Ok good..I need to confess something" I nervously Say. I explained the dreams I was having.
"Oh My so this Demoness" Willow went dark, "She knew about the
"Other Clones. Yeah I know.." I gulped.
Luz went dark. "And-"
I showed them the pictures "How are you not sure you made that?" Gus wanted to be skeptical.
"Because I saw those saw in my dream. They must mean something..
"Oh they mean something" a boys voice was heard
We all flinched. Brought out our powers.
There we saw a boy With slicked hair, and had brown eyes like a Wolf.
"I'm Lorcan" He grinned. "Your Aradia's Cousin." Luz said.
"Yep. I'm here to say that ain't No game. Go check the place for yourself" he tells us.
"Ok can these people just knock? Before-" Frowned Gus. Lorcan actually knocked. Then Shrugged. "Oh your a smarta-" Gus was about to say.
"Hey, it was important. Because guess who also Got a similar Same dream" all of us gasped.
"Typhras is down. But he mentioned an Angel, wouldn't tell who it was" He explained. "My Cousin And I got a dream Of A throne room. We're pretty sure it's the Dog Angels'"
"Why Did you guys leave her?" Asked Willow. I Almost found it strange how human will Seemed, how everyone seemed Compared to Lorcan. He seemed to shine..just a little bit too much.
"Thought I come help out. After incoming Envy in the head" He tells us. "Envy?" Asked Amity.
"Yeah a Demon that allows you to see Visions and prophecies clearer..that's if it doesn't burn your Soul."
"Well that's nice" Gus muttered, "WAIT!-"
"That's it! The Angel realm is clear now right?" Asked Willow.
"Yes. And-" He eyed me. "Oh no.."
Everyone looked at me. I was tempted to blush.
"You..Your Hunter aren't you?" He asked me. "Yes.."
"My dream was about the Dog angels mentioning you. At any moment they'll be suspicious. They'll pull you anytime" he tells me.
"Well..Oh Great" I frowned. "Well it doesn't matter. I'm leaving"
"To find that Demoness.." Gulped Lorcan.
"You know?!" Amity got surprised. "Oh Yeah" He tells us about his Father and Aunt being the ones to find a story of Philip summoning demons.
"We know it! All this time! All this time we have been sold out."
Lorcan laughed but more darkly, "Oh yeah! Y'a think? I spent my Whole Life trying to figure out why Dad would Scream in the middle of the Night. Why Mom constantly would fight her over the stuff he wrote and Cry"
We all looked at each other ...That sounded rather unpleasant..
"It's a disease I'm telling you..It's a disease" He warned us. "That's why you have to go before you're pulled. Take this."
He gave us a bowl.
"What!?" Amity yelled. "What the heck this Gonna do?" She grabbed it and shook it as if it had something inside.
"Oh, trust me. I Said the exact same thing. Turns out that thing is deadly to them. The only thing That bids Them. Delilah is the only one with the ring that also could Bid them"
"Alright, what happens when we bid them?" Asked Gus.
"Once you do. Don't listen when they speak to you. Whatever they say, whatever they tell you. Never listen. That's all you can do. Unless you make it back to the Temple-"
"Temple?" Willow asked
"Uh not really. It's more like, Where Delilah is now these days. Right By The small tree by just way past the Library. There is a portal. You'll be able to walk to it. Demons will be chained there." Luz saids she already had the Address. Everyone was glad of that.
All of us really don't know what to think. We all grew up with demons..Most of them were fine..but no. They aren't the same. They couldn't be..Philip/Belos..Wouldn't have asked them for anything..
"Yeah I get it.." Lorcan speaks. Knowing what we were probably thinking..
"I wanted to be kind..I wanted to Follow Anyone in such a beautiful place. That's until my protector Joel warned me not to agree with anything that Barachiel was saying..What Typhras was saying.." He touched his heart. Taking a breath. "I didn't listen. Aradia and I were attacked."
"He was in disguise." I stutter. I had another Flashback. That same woman with a cup. Became A demon with legs of a Mule, blank eyes, and held a bloody skull.
"Yeah" Lorcan agreed. "Explain the whole plan. I'll tell Delilah you're going so she can later have back up. Then I need to head out again. Mom's waiting"
We explained Everything.
"Ok" He tossed something else to me, I small bead, "Keep It," He grinned. "You never know when that little guy is gonna come in handy"
We all went over notes.
"Gosh" Amity Sat besides Luz. She layed in her.
"This is like Planning to defeat Belos 2.O" she moaned.
Luz hugged her to comfort her.
"Yeah. I didn't even tell my Mom Yet! I know what she'll say "Ai, Luz Mija you're always getting into trouble with Realms"
That actually made us all chuckle somewhat.
I actually recall the time Ms. Camila Noceda let us all stay at her place. It wasn't even that long ago and here it felt like it has been years. Nice times..
"I have an Idea! You go tell her." Gus saids, "I'll stay behind to see How King, Eda, and Lilith with the Collector are going. Once you did. Well switch. I'll keep watch in the human realm."
He snapped his fingers. Making himself human ears with illusions. "I'm good at That"
"Great idea" Willow followed. "Amity and I will.."
Amity looked at Willow Like no. They stared at each other so long, I Jew they couldn't hide the awkward or suspicious face for long.
I forgot something important.
"Guys I also have something to say" i take a deep breath. Luz drank water.
"I..I Kinda Told Darius everything"
Liz spat out the Drink. String beam hissed and then went back to sleep.
"HUNTER!!-" everyone said.
"He understood! He understood!" I say.
"Actually can't blame him", Amity shrugged "Willow and I wanted to tell our Families"
Willow Face turned, "AMITY BLIGHT!!-"
"This is why we're friends" I say, snapping my fingers to her. She did it back.
"Uh..Ok! You two, make sure your families don't go insane" Gus saids.
"I doubt I can stop that from happening, you know them." Amity made a point.
"We'll do what we can. Hunter?" Gus asked me.
I was unsure.
"I..not sure now"
"Ok...Don't worry!" Him, Luz, and amity began to stand up. Ready to go on.
"Hey, can we speak?" Gently asked Willow as she pulled me to the side. I felt my face get red for a moment.
"Hunter, don't stress yourself," she tells me.
"Pfft. Really? What about the whole world ending? What about the -"
Willow Placed her fingers on my lips.
"Hunter, you and I both know that we made it this far. This is only the next chapter. You'll be ok. We will be ok"
"But what if we're not? That demon lady..She seems.."
"Scarier than Belos?" She weakly smiled.
No! I told myself.. No..
"Well..Maybe that's what she'll want you to think. She isn't around. So promise we one thing.." Willow tells me. I'm not even her boyfriend and she makes my heart flutter so much. It so sad and joyful. I couldn't dare lose her to any Manic Belos or not. None of my friends.
"Promise Me when you meet Delilah, and the rest of her friends. You'll do anything to stay on their side"
I wanted to say, I don't even know them. That I didn't even get what she was saying. In fact, the more I thought about it. I didn't want to admit how crossed I was for their realm not ever telling us of their existence or helping us with Belos ..they didn't help..Right?
Willow didn't need to hear any reply. By her expression she probably understood. Heck, probably even had the same thoughts and feelings. She only held my hand. "See Ya, Demon hunter" She kindly winked. Then went her way through the portal.
I recall my best friend Flapjack.
"Ok Flapjack" I said as If he was there with me. Right there on my shoulder. Feeling his powers help me find the courage despite my mixed emotions.
"Let's do this"
