Yin & Yang

Chapter 37: Lost Boy (Lilith)

Upon finding Maria's dead body, and the book with the missing page, I felt like a pit had formed in my stomach. I raced out of the tiny house, back into my car. There was no time to waste, I had to find my brother. Who knew who he could be hurting right now, everyone was powerless to my brother, except for me. Before I knew what was happening my body was taken over by the necromancer spirits for the second time that day.

***

"I had no choice, you've forced my hand." The chorus of voices erupted from my throat. My glazed over eyes swept side to side, looking at the mess of the massacre unfolding in front of me. Children who used to be so innocent and sweet, now looked like blood covered savages.

Let us take control Lilith, it is the only way to put an end to your brothers antics. He must be stopped. The necromancers spoke to me.

Please, just don't hurt him, I replied in my mind.

Now give us permission. Will you let us in completely?

Yes.

I felt my own consciousness take the backseat in my brain, the spirits of dozens of necromancers began to fill my body. My naturally red hair licked at the sides of my face like fire, and two beams of pure white light erupted from my eyes.

"You will no longer hurt these people," the voices boomed through the small town. The people who were fighting each other even stopped to watch my power unfold.

Smoke started to trail up my body as my clothes began to morph into a cloak similar to Gabe's. The sky around us began to darken with storm clouds. Snow and rain came down from the sky angrily as I floated higher and higher until my body was parallel with my brothers.

"Go home, sister." My brothers voice became more inhuman as the seconds ticked by.

"Never again will we stand by and let you hurt people. Never again will we be weak. She is alive now, her strength now matches yours. Now prepare to be torn apart in more ways than one."

The spirits began to chant an ancient Latin spell, one which causes souls to leave bodies. One that only the twin of a grim reaper could enact. I felt my body heat up, like someone had started a fire in my bones. Then one by one, the spirits started to leave my body. I watched as they flew like bullets out of a gun, right into the heart of my brother.

Lighting cracked, splitting the sky with a purple beam of pure energy. My brother, who seemed to be suffering from sensory overload floated with his arms outstretched. His head was tipped back, mouth open in a silent scream as more and more necromancers filled him.

They had used my brothers power, and greed against him.
