Endless Grief |Book 2| ❤(Countryhumans) ❤

The Cycle

What could I do? I am like a doll being held by a giant, and a portal opened up. America is dragging Erick by the collar of his shirt, I tried to wiggle out the fifth time hoping I can be like a fish out of water. Of course nothing worked in my favor, once Erick was pulled next to me it was time to go.

"So you brought everyone here for a goodbye?" I also asked about using it for stalling. "You do know that I'll come back right?"

"Maybe, but hopefully in a later event after the war." Britain said looking at me "It was nice to meet you again Courtney."

I looked around the room one last time remembering everyone's faces. Then the words from the demon itself, how can I defeat them? And that false angel, I didn't think there were such things as a false angel. Can't the lord himself notice and take care of it? You know what I should not question.

"Just take care okay?" Rectangle said with Choco in a box with holes, I nod.

If I leave, many things will happen, the Cold War will start, West and East will be split and other countries, Soviet also collapse. Those phantoms would probably control them again and use them as puppets, I'll get my revenge on them for killing my parents, and my known brother, I swear on that.

"Uh is that supposed to happen?" I heard Bulgaria say the portal was starting to faint.

"Shoot, the spell only lasts a period of time, they have to go in!" Soviet said snatching the book out of Britain's hands.

"Bye Courtney and Erick, and also Chocolate!" East said

"Do not worry, I'll come back as soon as possible." I smiled. Erick was pushed inside the portal and soon I was also pushed in.

The light is so bright I shut my eyes the whole time, it feels like I am standing on something solid. Once I opened my eyes I was laying in a bed, it was a dark room, candles are the only source of light.

"Good you are awake." A feminine voice called out, I looked around the room and saw a dark figure sitting on a wooden chair.

It was the witch that helped us travel from time to time. She asked how it went during the day when we last left, huh it is it was days, not just one, last time I stayed way longer. I got out of the bed and asked where Erick could be, the lady pointed to the other room, and I just noticed Chocolate laid on the woman's lap. The lady gave it scratches and Choco purred, I thanked the woman and went to Erick's room where I found him reading a book and setting a light.

"You okay?" I asked leaning against the door frame, what a stupid question, of course he wouldn't be okay we literally went back to WORLD WAR 2!

Erick shut his book and took off his reading glasses, he turned to me and noticed his appearance changed. His eyes are a bit orangish, and you can notice his hair is becoming lighter.

"Why do you have a bond with those countries?" He asked "And why are you so obsessed with going back and trying to find clues about your family? It turns out those countries were the ones that killed them!"

"Erick, they didn't kill them, those phantom or demons whatever were controlling them, because they didn't like the idea of magical people in their world. " I reply now walking to him sitting on the edge of the bed, letting my back slouch. "I learned this information not so long ago, and I want my revenge, I want to avenge the death of my parents and for Tommy."

Erick got out of the bed, looking at me with his orange eyes. He placed his warm hands on my cold shoulders, I didn't even know who I was cold.

"Courtney, those things you said to me are demons. Demons from the bubble!" Erick shook me a little "How are you going to fight Satan himself?! Even with me by your side, we are humans that can die!"

"But we have to get rid of them, who knows what they will do to those countries?" I talked back, Erick's brown orbs were showing a hint of orange and red, the color of fire in one eye, just like me. "Erick your eye!"

Erick released his grip turning his back towards me, he rubbed his eyes still tired. I passed him a mirror letting him see himself.

"Huh...It turned color just like you!" Erik half heartedly laughed, a frown was on his face soon after. "Why does it even do that?!" A knock was heard on the door.

It was the witch, Ms...something I forgot. The woman looked at the two of us, in her arms. Her other hand petted the black cat, as Chocolate let out purrs.

"You two still don't know about your eyes' true abilities?" She questioned, "I thought you two would at least know a little knowledge."

"Well I mean, I can summon those cold shards, and I also could fire these cool ass bullets!" I pointed to my hands, I tried to summon the shards but nothing "Hey how come it doesn't work?"

"Maybe because it only works in another world?" Erick got out of the bed now standing beside me "Am I correct?"

The witch lady only smiled and nodded, she wanted to know about our adventure. We talked about it over a cup of tea.

"I see, in the future it looks like you will be going to a big war soon." The woman said as she wrote everything down on a piece of paper. "A war between the two of you and hell itself."

"I think it's a death wish." Erick crossed his arms he looked at me. "The first time we went back there, we were being shot at by TANKS! And I blew one UP!"

"You said something about abilities, can you tell us what we have in our advantage?" I ignored Erick and stared at the witch who smiled and nodded.

She got up in front of the table and went over to her small library. I saw her pick up a book and return to her seat.

-Third Person POV-

The children flipped through the book. Pages after pages until they found what they are looking for.

"Blue?" Courtney asked in confusion, while all the other powers get cool names, hers got Blue.

Erick looked at the abilities , and started to list them all.

"It says here yours is very powerful, summoning shards is only the beginning, you can create a shield, basically your power came from the moon." Erick read the book, before looking up at the witch. "I feel like you told us your name before, but I forgot."

The lady thought about it.

"You can just call me Ms. Lulu." The lady said. "Now the two of your powers are especially rare, Courtney's like you said was giving by the moon, while your's was gifted by the Sun."

"Oh no wonder why you were always so cold." Erick laughed, a joking.

"And no wonder why you are always so hot." Courtney said back.

"Wait what?" Erick questioned thinking he misheard her.

"Huh?"

A bright light had appeared catching the twos attention. Ms. Lulu was standing by them, gesturing them to the portal.

"Are you two going to go in and finish the job? Or keep confusing yourselves?"

Not Edited
Shoot bad news, y'all gonna hate me for it, but I am losing my mind when I reread this book, like the plot is weird, but I guess I am still going to continue it and we'll see how much this book sucks.
