The One I need Chapter Two The Truth Of Horror

Six: The Fight Begins

I stepped through the portal to get back to the overworld and looked about. It was still difficult to comprehend what I had to do but it was a life or death situation and if I didn't fix this then the world would be ruined forever.

'AMBROSIA!' Crescentia ran full speed towards me and knocked me to the floor.

'What?' I asked irritably, rubbing my head.

'Did I hurt you?'  She said in a concerned tone of voice.

I shook my head. After all she hadn't hurt me that much.

'Anyway, there's news about the underworld.'

I strained to listen,'go on...'

'Well, apparently the leaders of the clans found out about the hourglass,' she said in a rush.

'What?!' I screeched at the news.

Cresentia nodded.
'It's true,' she confirmed.

I stared at the tiled ground, trying to take in this new information. How had they found out, was my next question.

'How did they found out?' I asked her.

Crescentia shrugged.
'I have no idea, trust me,' she held her hands up in innocence.

I believed her. Even though she could be a klutz at times, you couldn't help but believe everything she said.

'I believe you,' I told her in my best comforting tone.

'Some say that they found out because the room was either left unlocked or broken into. One of the two.'

I nodded, taking in the new information. The war was at its next stage.

The fight to the hourglass. The fight to rule Hell and earth. To win this war.

I needed to win this or the world would become even more of a ghost town than it is now.

'How are we going to win?' I asked Crescentia.

'Well you're up against some of the strongest demons in Hell and Battery City, so we'll need some pretty strong demons. Know anyone?' She asked me.

I shook my head. The only strong person I knew was Azurewrath. Even Anri wasn't as strong as he was.

'What about me?' A male voice asked.

I spun round and saw Hikari holding Sandā.

'How much of that did you hear?' I asked.

'Every word that left your lips,' he replied.

How was he that quiet and holding a baby at the same time?

Then it clicked.

He was the strong demon I was looking for and he was willing to help fight with me.

Perfect.
