"My, my father?" I reiterate with tears in my eyes. I grab his hand and he helps me up, the moment I'm standing I hug him tightly. "I feel like I've always known you..." I cry into him. He strokes my red curls. "You have, I was the voice who told you which path was the right one." I look up at him, and he smiles. I notice that he has short, dark red curls, darker than mine and my moms.
"Come on, we must go to the Mount Olivet Cemetery." He walks me out of the side tunnel and towards Anais and Jayden. They both look surprised. "Where's Missy?" Anais asks me. "She tried to kill me, she said something about getting her mom back." I look at the ground sadly. "Sebastian has a way of getting people to do what he wants, and he'll promise them impossible things to get that." Ezekiel explains. "You two, if your journey does not end here, you can choose to accompany Blair and myself." The both of them nod.
Suddenly, I'm transported to the exact cemetery that Ezekiel mentioned, and I vomit on the ground. "Sorry, I should've told you to hold your breath." Ezekiel grimaces. I wipe my mouth, then stand up straight. "Well, at least it's over with." I manage. Ezekiel leads me to the exact tomb in which I am to perform the rite.
"We're here, and I cannot go in with you." He informs me. I nod, then give him another hug. "How am I supposed to beat him?" I ask, I am genuinely scared. "You will be able to when the time is right." He smiles. I frown. "I really hate riddles." I laugh, then go into the crypt. Blair, think really hard about a bulb of light, and one will appear. I hear Ezekiel deep voice in my head. I close my eyes and concentrate.
After a moment, I can see light through my eyelids. I open my eyes to see my own little orb of light. I smile, then command the orb to follow me. I slowly make my way deeper into the damp tomb, and I become anxious. I walk into a grand hall that has two stone coffins at the end of it, and several shrines decorate the walls.
"So, you've finally shown up, love?" I hear a British accent say. I spin around to see a dark man with no hair. He grins at me, and holds out his arms. "Come to join me?" He asks. "No way, I'm only here to perform my rite." I try to envision a sword in my head, and command it to become real. I feel relieved when I feel cool metal in my palm. I swing the sword at the man, and he disappears.
"Well, love, you haven't even given me the chance to introduce myself." He laughs garishly. "I'm Sebastian, and I'd like for you to be my little doll." I cringe at the thought of him even touching me. "Never! You've hurt too many people!" I yell into the darkness. I begin to search the room when a sudden thought hits me. Light up the entire room with the orb! I throw my orb of light to the ceiling and command it to grow. The entire room lights up, and I see Sebastian.
His body begins to morph into a large and grotesque creature. He grows a large tail that he whips at me. It hits me in the stomach and I'm sent flying into the wall. I sit up with tears stinging my eyes, then I get to my feet. You can give yourself wings! Ezekiel's voice informs me. I nod, and then concentrate until I feel two large wings sprout from my spine. I use every muscle in my body to lift myself off of the ground, and I propel myself toward Sebastian. He seems surprised, and when he tries to whip me again, I easily dodge his tail.
"I am Blair Tannen, daughter of Ezekiel. Angel of earth and sky, and tonight you will die!" I hear myself yell. My sword plunges into Sebastian's beastly heart, and he lets out a deafening roar. I fall to the ground, and his body spurts black blood all over me. I gag, and run away from his dying body. He collapses on the floor, then dies. "Did, did I win?" I ask myself.
I make my way back outside, and I collapse on the ground outside. Ezekiel, Anais, and Jayden all look at me. I'm exhausted, and they know it. "So, what happened?" Anais asks. I look at her for a long time while I catch my breath. "I did it, he's gone." I say with a smile.
