A Dead Man's Bride - Cursed One

Chapter 29

There was a strange sighting that he saw, an egale and a raven were fighting and the egale was being beaten up by the raven and this made James ask himself a question, is'nt the egale stronger than the raven? but still the egale is loosing and then there came a voice from with which spoke the ultimate mystery, the egale is facing defeat is because it is not aware that it is stronger than the raven, only if it was aware of its strength it would win and just as he was thinking in the very next moment he noticed another egale that flew from above and ripped off the raven into peices.

This was the answer he was looking for, he ran accross in search of Katina and Naamak in faith that he had the potential to destroy them and he found Katina where she had taken him to be married.

James, "Katina, why? Why did you destroy our happy relation."

Katina, "it was not me James, it was you who destroyed our relation. There was no need for you to hold on to your empty values if you loved me so much."

James, "if you ever loved you would respect my values just as I respected and did everything you asked me to do, even when it was agaist my morals. What did I ever get in retun? Pain and betreyal."

Katina, "you can still embrace me, all I ask is come and hug me once."

He moved towards her and Katina looked at him and smiled, she opened her arms wide open to hug him. The moment James hugged her, Katina' eyes turned blood red and she was about to dig her teeth in his neck to suck the blood off his body but then James was aware off the kind of monster Katina was, before she could bit him, he pierced a stake in her back which wounded her and she fell unconsious. He quickly lifted her up and carried her all the way towards the chaple, he was not aware that the chaple was abandoned and the scantury was moved.

He wanted to bring her into God' presence and ask the new monk at the chaple to pray for the curse of being a dead man' bride leave Katina. The moment he realized that the chaple was abandoned by the people, he quickly carried Katina to the basement and locked her in there to go in search of someone who could help him end this curse. He sealed the basement door with a holy cross so that the powers of evil would not overcome it. Little was he aware of what was waiting for him outside, the moment he stepped out of the chaple, he saw Naamak standing at the gate.

Naamak, "where is my bride?"

James, "you monster, you have no right to call her that. Leave now or else I will destroy you."

Naamak, "you are nothing, are you not aware how the monk died? Have you not seen the people abandone this place in fear. It is me who rules this land, and I will always. Return my bride back and I will let your death be less painful."

James, "you have no authority over me, you can destroy my body but my soul is beyond your reach of corruption."

Naamak, "you fool you have no understanding of what you are standing against."

And then Naamak turned into that fierce wolf beast and attacked James, he was killed in an instance and Naamak entered the chaple in search of Katina. He heared her calling out for him from the basement and he rushed there but the moment he touched the door his hands burned for James had sealed the door with the holy cross, against which the power of evil had failed. He went mad in that moment, for Katina kept calling out to him from the inside and he could do nothing to set her free. He asked her to stop breathing and give up on life so that he could find a new body as a vessel to transpire her soul and just as he said, Katina gave up on life but her soul remained trapped in that basement of abandoned chaple.

Naamak came out and now he had to look out for a pure soul to be corrupted and he saw James' sprite standing at the gate smiling at him, saying, "a pure soul I shall await as well, someone who would pray for this curse to end and bring justice to your dammed future."

Naamak, "the day you find such a soul I will be waiting to corrupt it and bring Katina back to life."
