The Descendant of David: The Awakening

Chapter 39-Elisha

Dave wakes up and the headache in his head returns. It has been hours since he awake. A bandage is on his arm and leg. He remembers the fight and gives out a sigh. He actually beat Beelzebub that day. Or did he? Joshua told him that he escaped, well alive. Next time though, he wasn't going to leave anything behind.

Where are we? Dave struggles to get up but the headache is too much for him. He lays back down and closes his eyes. He sees nothing but clouds of darkness that soon break away to show a boy with a bald head and a white tunic, sitting on the white floor. Flames surround him and he whispers a chant. The flames grow wider and they surround Dave too. Dave begins to back up but the boy says, "Don't fight it. Let it be one with you."

He relaxes but keeps his guard as he beings to sit down also. 

"I believe your name is Dave, right?"

"Y-yes."

"Are you supposedly the Descendant of the King of Israel and Judah?"

"Yes, I am."

The boy doesn't move but the fire flickers around him. "You don't know me yet but I'll be a great benefit to you defeating Beelzebub."

"Wait. How do you know me and about all of this?"

"Are you so blind that you can't realize that I am also a Descendant? Not one of David's but one of Elisha's. I have come to help by the order of my leader."

"Oh. So are you close by or somewhere far?"

"I will come when the time is not in your favor."

"That's great. So I guess you need me for something or I wouldn't be in this vision right now."

The boy finally gets up and turns around. "I know the location of your three friends. They are in dire need of your assistance or I'm afraid they won't make it."

"What?! Then why can't you save them?"

"Like I said. I'll come when you're in desperate need. This isn't that time. My assistants will protect them until you arrive. I suggest you get up and leave."

What that the vision disappears and he's back in the room with Joshua holding him down and Angelica soothing him until he can regain focus.

"W-what happened?"

"You had another vision and you were shaking and stuff. Are you ok now?"

"Y-yeah, I-I'm fine."

He notices that he;s shaking and tries to stop it. Joshua keeps him down until he can stop shaking. Dave gets up and says, "My vision was about this boy who said that he knows where Sheba, Jon, and Sam are. He also said that they're in some huge trouble."

Joshua looks at him as he takes deep breathes before continuing. "So that mean they're close. We need to find them before the stronger infected find them."

"Wait, the stronger infected," asks Angelica.

Dave tells them about the infected being in the weak state. "Of course," says Joshua slamming his fist on the bed. "They're going through a metamorphosis, meaning that they become even more dangerous."

"So how do we stop it?"

"We can't. We can probably slow it down or kill them entirely."

Dave nods his head, disbelieving the belief that their enemy can be even stronger than they already were. "We need to hurry and find them," says Angelica.

Dave is helped up by Joshua and they go to the lions who are licking their paws. "Come on. We have to leave."

The lions shake off the dirt from their backs and they get on the lions once again. "Where to prince," asks Omega.

"Uh...does anyone have a map?"

"You mean you don't know where we're going?"

Angelica moans and pulls out a long brown piece of hair and the lions sniff. "Find that person."

"You think we're dogs?! I have you know—"

"Oh be quiet Omega. Let's just get this over with."

Dave stares at Angelica until she stares back. "What?"

"You had a piece of her hair the whole time?"

"And your point is?"

  Dave can't say anything as the lions run once again.
