20 minutes after the call

As he was leaning on the wall, Aiden saw Mary coming his direction, with a swift walk and visible irritation on her face.
-What the hell do you want from me?!
I told you, we're finished!- As he thought, she was mad at him. "Well, after nightmare like this, even I would be angry. Even if it would be her i'm mad on."
-Listen, it's not about you or me or-
-What have you thought?! That I would come back to you?! You moron!
-Hey! Calm down. Ok?
-Ehhh... Ok. Ok.What do you want?
-Uhhh. Ok. Hovewer it sounds, I'm not joking now.
-Ok, say it. Come on.
-Look. One day, I was walking around the forest with my friend. We found a cave. I entered the cave, inside there was a temple, in which lived a ghost-chief of an ancient civilization. He told me I'm the one he was waiting for for thousands of years. He said, I have the mission, destroying an ancient danger to the whole World. But he said, there are two Chosen, and when one finds the Temple of Qharag, he has to find the second Chosen of the opposite gender.
-So? What do I have to do with your silly imagination?
-Let me finish. But he said, there are two Chosen, and when one finds the Temple of Qharag, he has to find the second Chosen of the opposite gender.
-Oh, let me guess. I am the second one right? Cut the crap, I am not going back to you. Bye.
-Wait! I can prove it to you. Stand here and in 5 minutes your dad will drive through here.
-So? He always comes back from work through here.
-He does. But this time he won't make it home. He will have an accident right here, on this crossing.
-What?! Bullshit. Now bye.
-If you'll want to change your choice, just call me.

The same evening Mary was sitting on her bed, reading the book. Yet she couldn't focus on reading, as she was thinking about what Aiden said. Then she heard her phone ringing, She already thought it's her mom calling from the hospital that her father just died. But it was her father himself. She never felt such calmness in her. She picked up the phone with joy.
-What is it dad?
-Hey, sweetie, you want something from the grocery? I'm stopping by.
-No, thanks dad. See you at home.
She hanged up, and stopped worrying immediately "What now, Aiden? Still want me to believe your fairy tale?" Said to herself in mind, and continued reading. After 15 minutes another phone call. This time from her mom. As her dad confirmed he's ok she didn't worry and thought her mom is just going to say she'll be a bit late tonight. But when she picked up, she got stunned, her mom said "Dad just died, sweetheart... He's no longer here" and after saying that she started to cry and hanged up. Mary was still stunned. She couldn't believe it. "But how would he know? It was just a... just a stupid fairy tale..." She couldn't think about that any longer and called Aiden
-I know what you're calling for. The same place in fifteen minutes.

When she arrived Aiden was already waiting.
-What have you done? HOW have you done that?
-You still don't believe me? Ok. Live on with it then.
-Wait, I didn't say that. But how did it happen?
-Chosen's parents are only the First Ones and the real parents must die. They can survive but you have to cast a spell on them. And I know how to cast that spell. But I need you. World needs you. Are you ready? When you wake up, come back right here, and bring me your father's photo.
-Alright. Do it.- After that she heard
only Vlas Neah Kuy Qig. She felt like she heard it somewhere but forgot about that as soon as she was overwhelmed by a strange, red light.
