Krakoa's Solomon - New Age of X

Chapter 2

A few days later, we see in some kind of library in Krakoa that Stolas was personally using and doing some work to catch up on his magic studying as the stars & moon have some stories to share. He was good at reading events that happened during the time he was dead and never hurts to look back on the past to not repeat the mistakes. Even though others have told him about it already, he likes to keep a record and loves writing down with reading it. 

Then one certain record got his attention, causing Stolas to stop writing and see that the last page he wrote was the last time he had talked with a certain cat thief, Black Cat herself. He had mixed emotions and started to remember how he met that cat. 

"It started when things between Raven and I were strained due to losing our child due to the lie set in place for Kurt's safety that I didn't know back then until a few days ago. I was lost and needed my space after that 'break up' of sorts, heading to New York and setting up new connections that resulted in me meeting Felicia Hardy after those fools took advantage of her," Stolas thought, recalling how he used his summoning and full demon form to scare those fools away to never harm Felicia or any women again. 

Stolas had helped Felicia for a good while and even became lovers at that time. On and off but changed of sorts a few months before the events of the Phoenix Five that led to his death. Felicia began to act more distant, acting as if she believed she was only using the low mutant for her agendas. And this owl can remember her words on that faithful night. 

"Our thing! It was just a game for us both. I enjoy your power and luxuries, but that's it! Nothing more, nothing less," Felicia's words spoke to Stolas but saw that she was doing it to keep herself from being harmed again, and even tears dared to come out. 

Stolas knows that and even how Felicia did that when she was with Spiderman, not wishing to put herself emotionally behind any relationships. He noicted that and will allow the cat for her own space. 

"...Very well...if that's what you desired, then so be it. I will always be there for you, Felicia, if the need comes," Stolas's words to Felicia before she left and that was the last time the pair saw each other. 

The owl mutant now was back to the present and shook his head to come back but his mind wandered and soon snapped his fingers to summon something out of a red yet black energy to look at a gift he planned to give to the cat before things broke off. 

The said gift was a green jewel Stolas originally planned on getting to Felicia and could maybe give her the choice of what their relationship could be like now. It has been a while since they last talked and before his death. Now could they have a chance to talk and fix their mistakes? He sighed and placed the jewel away for now, waving his hand that caused a musical tone to fill the very room of this office & library.

"It is expected, an oath by blood to hold the tome," Stolas began singing and found himself revealing how he feels much better in music.

"And the starlight passes overhead, fuels all the skills I've honed," Stolas walked on a flight of stairs to see several books and how he mastered some magic abilities.

"I am a guardian, a watcher of these ancient rites," He waved as he entered a dark room filled with many stars & planets.

"Yet I find myself drawn from that path," Stolas said as he brought the earth and moon into his talon hands.

"On those dazzling moonlit nights," He then picked up the moon and smiled in a lovely manner at how those moonlit nights reminded him of the cat he held very close to his heart those years ago.

"Let me hold you, keep you close to me," Stolas sang as he held the moon close to his heart.

"I long to hear your voice," He wished to hear Felicia's voice again and her teasing down with her charm.
