Immortal Night Book 1 The Phantom Lord

Ch.6:Tomorrow (A Promise)

The year was 7,900 BC, Asreon fell to the Earth,she felt the wind on her skin and emerald hair and the force of gravity as she flew closer and closer to the ground. Touching the ground with her fingertips she flipped through the air landing on the solid ground, she stretched her arms  and legs walking into the unknown. "Tempest: The World"  she says aloud, crossing her legs and floating into the air her eyes glowing in a fluorescent light. 

She began to see through the eyes of the creatures that lived below in a beaten-down town. "Nothing really to see". She says, but then suddenly, a black hooded figure pushes an old woman to the ground running from authorities. "I shouldn't get involved in mortal affairs". She thinks to herself, she was about to return to her own body, when the hooded figure sprouts solid black angel wings, rotted and decayed he uses his wings as sharp lethal blades to decapitate the two peacekeepers. Asreon was horrified, angrily she returns to her angelic body running into town and following the trail of the murderer. Finally in the center of a place called Rigamortis Mortem lay an empty town, everyone ran to their homes in fear of the murderer, finally at the center of town he stopped running. "Sister, it's been a long time". The figure says his voice is hoarse but familiar to Asreon, the figure could see the confusion written across her face as clear as day. "I see Father never talked about me much". The figure took of his hood to reveal an anorexic man with white and black spiky hair, he looked more like a corpse then anything. "A Fallen" Asreon says raising her blades preparing for combat. "Yes, Darius the Black is my name" He said to her, she then throws her sword at him with lethal precision and high velocity. Darius moves one centimeter to the side dodging her blade. "Cute" Darius says then holds out his hand. "Black Tempest: Zero" time around them seemed to halt in its tracks. "Black Tempest"?  Asreon said shocked, struggling to move through slow time. "Yea, it's a little trick i picked up, see Fallen can't use Tempest anymore burns us from the inside". Darius said smiling. "There are only four known types of magic in the world, this is impossible". Asreon said terrified. " The True Dark One's  future coming has brought forth new magic,the era of Devastar and Black Tempest will reign supreme, and the World-Eater will destroy the gates of Heaven and Hell permanently. Darius says starting to walk away. "By the way, tell Father I said hi". He laughs as he disappears into a black mist.

Bianca and Jasara wake up that day to the sounds of the birds chirping and the smell of pine, with Diandrex calling for Jasara: "Jasara"! "Pansy" "Where are you, you disgrace I want round two"! He shouted; Jasara stood up at attention. "I have to go my love for now, wait for me" Jasara says kissing Bianca, the pentagrams in her eyes became a soft white staring at Jasara as if to say: "Don't go" and Jasara immediately read her thoughts, then he said, 'Ill be by the tree near the ruin later on and we can spend the night by the river like we used to". He says throwing on the garb Bianca had made for him so long ago exiting the house, walking up onto the courtyard. Diandrex, Atreyu, Mazdacar and Regula were there: "Someone's happier than a pig in shit" Mazdacar said to Jasara. "Just enjoying the day Maz, its not a crime is it"? Jasara asked sarcastically, Diandrex instantly got in his face: "You think you're so tough now, BloodRite that's rich, heard what Father did to you for it, so laughable I almost pissed my pants". He said to Jasara. "Well Father did what he had to do" Jasara said coldly, Diandrex was puzzled. "Again, with the strange clothes, where do you get your disgusting taste in wear"? he said disgusted. "Piss Off Diandrex" Jasara said walking away, Diandrex then grabbed him by the throat slamming him into a wall: "HOW DARE YOU, YOU ONLY BESTED ME BY LEARNING VILE MAGIC, FATHER STILL HASN'T FOUND YOUR SOURCE, BUT I BELIEVE YOU DIDN'T KILL THAT WITCH ALL THOSE YEARS AGO"! Diandrex shouted, the brothers were shocked. "Well Jasara what do you say to these accusations" Atreyu interrogated Jasara: "I killed her, ripped her to pieces and dragged her body off, she's probably rotted pieces in the river after all this time" Jasara sneered his eyes never leaving Diandrex. Diandrex's hand becomes a claw raising it to Jasara when Regula stops him. "Relax Di, Jasara's too stupid to lie, he let Father beat the crap out of him ,he's had enough just let it go" Regula says.Diandrex shoves Regula away, walking the opposite direction from Jasara. "we're going to town today; we don't need to get caught up with the likes of you". Regula said to Jasara, gesturing the others to follow him, while Jasara walks inside Castle Nibiru, there Calypso and Jessamine are waiting for Jasara.

"Nibiru wishes us to speak to you on his behalf, he realizes he went too far when you last talked, his wishes to speak to you tonight about it" Calypso said, "I have plans" Jasara said sarcastically, Jessamine took Jasara by the hand. "We all have realized you are different Jasara, growing up for you must have been hard and I will speak to my son" she says hugging him, she smelled like a soaked canine covered in flowers, Jasara pushed her off. "Don't do me any favors seriously Jessamine, you'll only make it worse" he says, Calypso and Jessamine shrug their shoulders respecting Jasara for his decision. "Calypso, Jessamine,Mothers I respect you looking out for me, but I am one thousand two hundred years old it is time I stand up and do what is right, not only for myself but the kingdom, tell Father I cannot meet him today, but I will meet him by nightfall on the morrow,I hope he will understand". He says, Calypso and Jessamine nod their heads in agreement leaving Jasara in solitude, he walks over the whole castle, every corridor every room, sliding his fingers against the reflective glass in the great hall, looking deep at his reflection. "You know what you have to do, no matter what you Father will never accept what you have done". He says to himself rubbing his marital rune. "By nightfall, I'll ask Bianca Rose to run with me" He says aloud, Jasara then went into the library and for hours read story after story before walking into the courtyard it was a quiet afternoon, the leaves against the trees flew in the cold wind Jasara kicked a pebble down the stone stairs that led into town, looking upon the Kingdom of Nibiru for he believed would be the last time. He started to walk back to the house which Bianca and him shared, but on his way, he saw something out of the corner of his eye. A scarlet colored Harvesta was angry and charging at Jasara, and as Jasara looked, he realized that Harvesta wasn't alone.

Ten Harvesta were running at Jasara at violent speed screaming and trying to cut him with their pincers. "Damn It"! He shouts to himself, running under their legs dodging their pincers in fear for his life, he then decided to use DarkStride and BloodRite to defend himself. "DarkStride: Shadowstar" A giant black star forms in Jasara's hand from smoke, throwing it at the Harvesta, ripping through them with ease, and he started to walk away......when he heard a rumbling sound behind him, when he turned around the Harvesta were putting themselves back together. "That's new" Jasara said terrified starting to run, the Harvesta gave chase shooting toxic sludge from their mouths at Jasara while trying to stab him with their pincers slicing a chunk of flesh from his torso. One of the Harvesta grabs Jasara raising it to its mouth, Jasara threw his Shadow Shuriken ripping the Harvesta in two, the others ran to Jasara but then started to eat the dead Harvesta, they then notice Jasara trying to get away running after him once more. "Ive had enough of this". Jasara says turning around the face the stampede. Jasara jumps in the air. "DarkStride: Upir"! Jasara shouts, his muscles increase in size, his eyes become a darker red, and his hair glowed with a red aura. "DarkStride: Burn"! He shouts again this time a fire formed in the depths of his heart, small at first then it grew at an uncontrollable rate engulfing him in violet flames. "AHHHHHHHHHH"! He shoots the violet flames at the Harvesta just as they were about to pounce. Incinerating each one into dust. After the battle was won, Jasara trudged past their ashes, walking into the woods spending the day by the river so long ago he and Bianca shared their love. Bianca appeared hours later the full moon hung high in the sky creating a spotlight over the river.

"My love you're hurt" Bianca said worried coming closer to Jasara who was sitting on a log. "Its nothing really just some wild Harvesta, they're getting aggressive lately". Jasara responded chuckling looking up at the moon as if lost in its light. "I have something to ask you" Jasara said, "Ive been thinking a lot about our situation, so im just going to say it: lets run from here, ill denounce my royalty and we can live in peace and safety". Jasara said, Bianca came to his side sitting on the log next to him. "Where will we go"? Bianca asks, "Anywhere but here my father would never approve if he knew, he would kill you and me both, i could never allow that". Jasara said: "I only wish to say goodbye to my mother, so on the morrow by nightfall we leave this place". Jasara said, Bianca wraps her arms around Jasara holding him as they both look up at the moon. "Tomorrow my love" They both said in unison, but little did they know their problems had gone from bad to worse, for earlier that day  Mazdacar's rotted ear laid on the floor of the great hall and heard every word Jasara had said.
