As I stand up, Azura walks back in and hands me a slip of paper. "Huh, what's this?" I mumble as she watches me quietly. As I open it, I read it slowly in my mind. Azura, the council will be meeting soon. We openly invite you and humbly request your appearance. It is of the upmost importance. Yours truly, Varrel. I look at her. "I want you to come with me, I'll just say you're my servant. There are some things I'm going to he talking about." She says as she puts her hand on my shoulder. "Will you come with me?" She asks as I feel a nervous aura around her. I nod as she summons a portal. As she walks through, I follow. As we exit the portal I see I'm outside a massive bright white mansion. I look back and see nothing but darkness. "Kai, this takes place in a pocket dimension. Also, please don't cause any trouble. If you do, I will kill you." She says as she starts walking forward. I follow her quietly. As she opens the door I feel multiple massive nervy signatures inside. We walk through the mansion and upstairs. We find a large room and enter it. "Azura, who is this young boy?" A man with heavy black armor and black hair asks. "This is my servant, I hope that isn't a problem Varrel." She says as I look around the room. I see Rukia, Ayden, and Saras sitting down at the circular table. Azura takes a seat as I stand behind her. The man next to her growls at me. "This boy doesn't look like a servant. You really do have mighty disappointing taste in followers." He says as she looks at him. "Well he's a gem. A rare creature that I couldn't pass. He's half angel and half demon." She says as I hear the room gasp and whispering break out across the room. I count a total of 12 people including Azura in this meeting. I notice Ayden and Rukia staring at me. Saras is asleep leaning back in his chair. Azura stands up. "I'm hear to talk about the energy we all felt. Not too long ago I fought the source of that energy. To my surprise, they were stronger than we previously had thought. They also appeared out of the blue with seemingly no energy trail. I couldn't get any information from them, except a few scratches and broken bones." Azura says as Ayden stands up. "We've all been thinking that the ancients would wake up soon, but this finalizes that the ancients are waking up. First the Queen of Equitas awakens, now it seems the celestials are starting to wake up too." Ayden says as I instantly remember my dream. "The Celestial Goddess of Energy." I mumble as everyone looks towards me. "Azura, does your servant know anything?" Varrel asks asks as Azura shakes her head. "Not really, no." She says as he sighs. Before I can say anything he stands up. "The ancients are something from far before any of us existed. Their origins are unknown and we know very little of their capabilities. Our best guess is the massive energy shockwaves from the battle sith Silvia were a catalyst for their awakening." Varrel says as Rukia stands up. "I think Telas is waking them up somehow. He brought back a woman named Jericho with hundreds of times more energy than she previously. Satan informed me that Telas is most likely up to something. It also appears that he knows something that we don't from how well he seems to talk about it." Rukia says as everyone starts talking. Out of all the voices I hear a specific one. "If you think he's a threat, then let's just kill him." I hear a demon say next to Ayden. I slam my hand on the table. "There's no way he would do anything to hurt any of us! He might act like a jerk, but in the battle with Silvia he-" I get cut off by Varrel. "That was 5 years ago. If Telas has corrupted him in any way, we will either kill him or purge him." He says as I feel my blood start boiling. "Aren't those basically the same thing!" I tell as Varrel glares at me. "No, well either kill his physical form or destroy his soul." Varrel says as I jump across the table and summon Nirioki. Varrel summons a sword and swings it toward me. As I blink I see Azura stand between us holding both of our weapons. "I'm the strongest person in the room. If you want to fight someone, fight me." She says as Varrel backs down. He sets his sword down and bows before Azura. "Forgive me, Blood Queen." He says as she sighs and grabs my collar and takes me back go her seat. She sits down then pushes me to my knees beside her. "Back to the topic at hand, I don't believe Zen would ever work with Telas. I haven't seen it in his thought and he hasn't had any personality shifts." Azura says as Saras yawns and stands up. "Well this is fun and all, but I can think of thousands of better things to do instead of this." Saras says as he summons his bow. I hear the angel in my head mumble slightly. Suddenly everyone looks to me. "Was that? No, I must be imagining things." Saras says as he walks to me. Azura stands up. "We will be taking our leave now." She says as she grabs my wrist and pulls me out of the building. She looks to me smiling. "You are something else, you know that? I will personally train you. Just summon energy to your entire body and think my name and I will come get you." She says as she smiles cutely. She snaps and I appear in my room. I stumble back and fall onto my bed. "This feels the familiar. Where have I felt this weakness before?" I mumble as I shake my head. "I don't feel tired at least." I mumble to myself.
