Secret Dove [ENNEAD x Female Reader] - DISCONTINUED

N I N E T E E N

Ruelle's movements were suddenly impeded as a vine sprung from the ground and constricted him to the surrounding wall. Before he could react, another vine wrapped itself around his body, immobilizing him entirely. [Name], in a fit of panic, tried to help him, but it was too late; she too was soon ensnared by the vines.

At that moment, Seth, who had been hiding behind a rock, lunged out and struck Osiris with a large stone. The God of the Underworld, however, was unfazed, and the stone shattered harmlessly against his vines. "STAY AWAY!" Seth bellowed, his voice filled with anger and fear.

Osiris, however, was now towering over them, his vines grasping Seth's arm and constricting it with an iron grip. "I'm sorry I'm so late, Seth," he muttered, his voice filled with regret and remorse.

Seth screamed in desperation, his voice filled with terror as Osiris's vines held him in place. "LET GO OF ME!" Seth continued to scream, his body straining against the tight grip of the vines.

But Osiris seemed to be oblivious to his torment, pulling him close and hugging him in a comforting embrace. "You must've been scared," Osiris said softly, his voice calm and steady. "I'm here now. It's okay."

Seth continued to scream, his words filled with frustration and anger. "I'm NOT OKAY at all!" he shouted, his voice shaking with emotion.

Osiris muttered something else, but Seth, in his fury, couldn't hear him. He struck Osiris with the rock, knocking him out cold. Seth took a deep breath, hoping that Osiris was dead, before collapsing onto the ground, exhausted.

"You poor dear," Osiris whispered, a sense of sorrow resonating in his voice. "I could not imagine the horrors you had to face. My heart was heavy as I watched you from Duat. It is not fair for one so young to have suffered so much."

Seth tried to back away, but Osiris's vines snaked out to wrap around his waist, drawing him closer. "I will be the one to carry the weight of your burdens," Osiris said, his voice soft and gentle. "There is no reason for you to carry such pain and sorrow. Come with me to Duat and let me take that pain away." Osiris's vines began to intertwine with Seth's, healing the wounds and scars on his body. "It is my duty as a god to bear your burdens so that you may be free from them."

"Your curse will consume you again," Osiris muttered, his voice low and stern. "And you will suffer the retaliation of humans, just as you did today. Please think carefully, Seth. The one who will accept you for who you are and protect you is me."

Seth's eyes flitted between Osiris and the tied-up [Name], who was now once again shedding golden tears. Tears that Seth himself had caused to flow. He looked back at Osiris, his expression one of anger and pain. "You knew everything," Seth said, his voice shaking. "You allowed this entire situation to transpire purposefully to force me to accept your help, didn't you?"

Osiris' eyes twitched slightly, a sign that Seth's words had hit home. Seth continued, "You waited until I wanted to die, didn't you? You waited until I had no other choice but to accept your help."

Osiris suddenly became agitated, and the vines around Seth's body began to tighten, almost cutting off his air supply. "SETH!" Osiris shouted, his voice filled with fury. "I came all this way, enduring pain to pay the price in your place. I CAME TO SAVE YOU!"

"This is your fault in the first place!" Seth shouted at Osiris, his voice filled with anger and frustration. "If it weren't for you, none of this would have happened. You waited until now to come and say you'd resolve it! Do you expect me to be grateful? You caused all of this!" Seth continued, his breath coming in rapid pants.

Osiris sighed deeply and replied, "Do you truly believe that I wanted any of this to happen to you? Even for a moment, my every thought has been focused on you. Even now, I am gathering wood in your place just to lift your curse."

"When did I ever ask you to do that?" Seth asked, his voice laced with shock and disbelief. At that moment, he felt the vines wrapping around his body once more, and he trembled from the feeling.

"You're right, Seth," Osiris said quietly. "It was my decision. I didn't want you to suffer any longer because I love you." 

[Name] looked at Osiris, her tears still falling down her face.

In the midst of the fight, Horus emerged and stabbed Osiris from behind, causing him to begin withering away like a plant, drying up as if he were a branch cut from its stem. His collapse to the floor marked the beginning of the end for the vines that held Seth captive.

Seizing the opportunity, Ruel quickly went to the side of [Name], and exhaled with relief as he found her uninjured. "My grace! Are you alright?" he asked in a soft voice, worry still written across his face.

As Horus stood before Seth, who was frozen in disbelief, he scoffed and said, "Do not listen to the words of a madman."

While Horus spoke, [Name] smiled softly at Ruelle, who gently wiped away her tears. The tension in the room was palpable, as everyone processed the recent events that had just taken place.

[Name] was left in a state of confusion, unable to comprehend the events unfolding before her eyes. There was a sudden appearance by Horus, who then proceeded to attack and murder Osiris. As if that was not enough, a man resembling Jesus, albeit not Jesus and will never be, arrived with a bleeding forehead. Following that incident, [Name] found herself outside along with the others, watching the chaos unfold in the sky as well as below, where smoke made it difficult to determine what was going on. The entire ordeal left [Name] feeling overwhelmed and disoriented, her mind struggling to process everything she had witnessed.

Name] observed as the individual ascended the steep ravine to reach the top, his movements precise and calculated. As the man ascended, Ruelle transformed into a dove and flew to a different location, leaving [Name] to figure out a solution to this conundrum on her own.

Determined to assist, [Name] summoned her magical powers and swiftly teleported herself to the top of the ravine. She now stood firm, looking down at the ground below, assessing the situation.

[Name] gazed down at the fallen corpses with a heavy heart and uttered a heartfelt message of farewell to the departed souls. "May you rest in peace," [Name] said solemnly, sending prayers and healing energy to their departed spirits.

As [Name] paid her respects to the fallen, Ruelle transformed into his human form and alighted near her side. With a hardened heart, Ruelle cast a cold gaze upon the mortals who had met their demise with no remorse or pity. His sole motivation was to shield and safeguard [Name] from harm, at all costs.

In the midst of this eventful afternoon, [Name] and Ruelle heard a sudden and urgent cry above. Both of them glanced up to see that Horus was still carrying Seth who was once more transformed into a dark entity, as he previously appeared in Seth's dream. With concern etched on her face, [Name] exclaimed, "SETH!"

As this unfolded, a massive sandstorm engulfed the surrounding area, casting an eerie glow upon the land. Meanwhile, the remaining followers below looked upbeat at first, but the brief moment of joy was quickly replaced with the realization that their end had arrived.
