Hello everyone! This is my first story in Wattpad so please excuse me of my grammar and vocabulary mistakes, and other things that are missing that is suppose to be there for a Wattpad story.

Just a warning: this might have SLIGHT gory scenes so please be careful if you feel uneasy.

-----/-----

A place that's out of this world. There were lush green and vibrant blue. Animals roamed the land and birds soar the skies. Within those place was a big old city filled with life and joy. At the far end of the city was a big field and there stood a grand and majestic castle. It stood brightly and elegantly with its overlooking scenery of the city. The serenity veiled the calm place with peaceful melody.

Suddenly, the clouds stirred and darkness enveloped the once bright and peaceful sky. Roars of battle could be heard outside of the city where people screamed and cried.

Dark and terrifying creatures invaded the territory with astonishing fright on the innocent people.

Black warriors attacked the grey castle's knights and guards with ferocious speed and strength.

Huge demons destroyed the buildings and wiping out the masses that scattered on the ground.

Smaller demons attacked the helpless people in the buildings and houses, tearing out their limbs mercilessly.

At the throne room in the castle, the king and queen stood with knights guarding the doors outside. This left the king and queen alone in the dark with only the light coming out from the huge magic circle that is glowing brightly.

The circle had symbols of the sun, moon and galaxy circling around the centre of the circle that had the shape of a star. It also had patterns of lines of square around the designs of sun, moon and galaxy, as the edge of the circle had twelve spaces with the Roman numerals from 1 to 12 in them. Each corner of the square connected to the numbers of the circle.

In the star laid a brown leather book with a heart-shaped arrow design at the front. The book had a mirror in the place where the heart twirls with its reflection hazed with the light of the spell. The magic circle was almost the same size as the throne room.

The king stood inside the west side of the circle holding a golden staff that was as tall as him with several moonstones covering the top part of the staff and a white orb that is between the two curved, split of the staff.

The queen was on the opposite side of the king holding the same size of staff, however, this staff was silver with topazes covering the upper part of the staff and a yellow orb above the curved, triangular design upper part of the staff.

The king and queen both held their staffs in front of them casting a long chant of magic spell. The white and yellow orb of the staffs glowed and there was a magic circle, the same as the magic circle on the floor, appeared above the staffs shadowing the king and queen. The magic circles grew larger and a big rush of energy overflowed the room. Like magma coming out of the ground, white and yellow light rushed out of the circle covering the king and queen that had a barrier of the magic circle around them.

The book floated in the air and glowed a gradient of yellow and white light. As the pressure on the magic circle grew heavier, the king and queen grew weaker.

At last, they put all their power into the last wave of magic, as they shouted the final words:

"Open the gate, Asimi and Chrysos!"

Two huge magic circles, one glowed white that had designs of clockworks and time while the other glowed yellow with designs of stars and suns, appeared above the king, queen and the huge magic circle with the yellow circle above the white circle. As soon as the magic circles appeared, gears turning could be heard and then the sound of blasting light. The book dissolved with traces of glitters of light leaving behind as it disappeared. Once the book disappeared, a sound of a key turning its lock was heard and a blast of light filled the whole room.

The light grew dim and there left the throne room of how it was before the spell was casted and the king and queen was on their knees panting with barely energy left in them.

"We have done it," said the king, "we have sent the book to the place where the child of prophecy belongs."

"Yes. We have accomplished that," said the queen, "it is with that person that this world would be saved."

The king and queen crawled toward each other, as they have no energy left in them, and hugged each other.

The sound of crying and clash of metals was heard outside the door and both of them gripped their hands and looked towards the door.

They knew it was going to happen.

They knew that the people they have now doesn't stand a chance against demons like them.

They can only hope for the best of their kind to the child of prophecy.

After a short defeating silence, a gale of shadow covered the huge doors and dismembered into flakes. Clanking steps slowly approached the opening of the room. Each sound of the steps agonised the two people in fear as doom approaches before their eyes.

As the final step reached the king and queen, the night clouds shifted letting out the light from the moon into the dark room revealing the figure of a man in black robes. The light glimmered in his eyes as he glared at the figures beneath him.

Like a prey in a trap, the king and queen shivered deep to their cores and froze in place. They could not look away from the bloody red eyes that was captivating them in chains.

"Where is the Grimoire?" asked the man as it gives chills on their spine.

"It is no use. Your kind would soon perish in this world," said the king bravely. The man laughed darkly while giving a mocking gaze.

"Hmph. Foolish humans. Your arrogance will be the one that will destroy this world."

He pointed his sword at them and without a warning, he sliced of their heads. Two in one swing.

The bodies lay on the ground with blood staining the floors. The man brought his sword to his face and licked the blood. His eyes glowed red and frowned.

"This taste disgusting. Such greedy creatures. Their soul taints their blood," he looked at the moon shining on him, "but I wonder if your blood would taste better than this, child of prophecy."

He brushed his long hair that was covering part of his face and smirked.

"Soon...you'll be mine."
