Lost Love

20. Hidden past

Brother?! I asked.

Yes, surprise surprise, he laughed at me.

Don't you dare say that Felkon. You disguised like me and cheated everyone I love. You disgraced me, Steve said.

You are my twin, he whispered.

I was looking at them in utter shock. In fact they both look each other alike except their eyes. He has devilish green eyes whereas Steve has lovely blue eyes.

Don't try to fool me, Steve yelled.

This is my true face brother. Could you remember yourself when you were young? Could you explain your weirdest dream which was haunting you ever since you were young? He said.

Steve was in shock with wide eyes. What do you know about my dream? He asked.

You were running from our home when you were very young and all alone in the darkness then you accidentally stumbled into the river and taken away by the stream of water; you went deep into the river and the next morning you were washed ashore and you were taken to Scotia. Your memories were washed away from you but your fear consumed you every night you slept.

So he was Drake's son then? I asked.

Yes he was his favorite son. Drake was a monster but Steve adored him. He loved Steve more than me; I hated him so I left the kingdom when I was very young and was sheltered in the land of fallen and was raised by the necromancer spirit. Later I heard that you too left Drake.

Necromancers told me about the old legendary prophesy. It was said that a girl would rise from Scotia and she will destroy all the evil power from the world. I was curious about that girl. So I started my hunt for the girl and came to Scotia. Then I came to know the feud between Galerius and Drake so I planned to help my father in his weary age; I thought to prove to him that I was worthy than Steve by defeating Galerius. So I came to visit Galerius but then I saw you Liz, as a young little beautiful child like an angel. You were so brave playing alone in the garden. Nobody could see me back then but you somehow sensed my presence so I was fascinated by you. Then I got the whereabouts of your father and I went to see him.

So it was you in my nightmare. It was your green evil eyes I saw. You haunted me from my childhood. Why? I asked.

That's a long story Liz. When I saw your father he was there with the witch in the old cabin. She was doing some kind of spell for him. I don't know what kind of spell it is. But it seems important to your father so I was curious to know about the spell. But the damn witch wouldn't tell anything to me so I took her life. Your father came to protect her. He thought the angry witches were taking her soul for doing the dark magic; he didn't aware that it was me so I sucked his life out of him and I went to my father and told him everything. Even in his sickness he mocked at me; he called me a liar and coward. He was mourning for you Steve. So I left him alone in his sick bed and continued my hunt.

So you killed my father, I screamed like a crazy girl.

And by the way I remember the name of the witch I killed. Her name was Bella. Ringing any bells, he winked at me.

I became furious now and I was shaking in anger. How dare you kill them? You will pay for your sins you sick monster, I yelled.

You are my favorite Liz, then I came looking for you but couldn't find you. I thought that Scotia would never rage war against Drake since I killed the king but I was wrong. After years I came to know that the king of Scotia killed Drake and they said that my home was burning. I came to pay my final visit to my sick father but then I saw Steve. The exact opposite of me but he has everything I needed for all those years. I looked into his memories; He has power, loyalty, honor, respect and then he has you Liz, the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.

I was jealous of him. I couldn't resist you. So I took everything out of him and left him to rot in the mountain. I gained everything from him and I planned to rule Scotia with you as my queen. But the irony was that you are the girl from Scotia who gonna wipe out every evil power. You are the girl that I haunted for all of my life. But it was such a shame to lose you so I planned to kill Steve and took you all for myself but then you found him. Unfortunately I have to go for my plan B, he said.

Tonight you are going to die in the land of fallen and you will never be alive anymore, Steve said.

As we speak here my army was marching towards Scotia. Tonight Scotia will burn, he screamed with joy.

Yeah I already sent the message to Scotia. They were well prepared for you attack. We will send your army back to hell, I said.

Are you sure of that Liz because my army was invincible; they can't be killed. He laughed hysterically.
