Secrets Of A Summoner

Chapter 10

Jayce sat in the middle of the summoning circle his mom had drawn, his dad was standing right in front of him looking down at the crumbly old book, the pages look as if someone spilled coffee on them, and then crumpled the pages before gluing them back together. "Alright we are almost ready to get this spell going, remember when we get this started at first it might seem a little pain full but it is all mental this will remove the wall that's been placed on your mind, but all the memories will flood you but you have to stay as calm as possible" Aurora explains going around the circle, she started in the north with Earth at the very top then she started to move clockwise making her way to 3 o'clock she wrote Air facing the east, she continued doing this for 6 o'clock, and 9 o'clock finishing the circle with water-facing west, she took a few steps back and looks at her husband nodding to begin, at this time Jayce had taken a few breathers to steady his mind like they had practice multiple time's. Allannia sat near the circle she wanted to be in there with him but they told her not to he was the only one allowed in the circle when the spell began, Vita didn't show much emotion she was just hoping that he would remember the promise he made to her when they were little. Deep down she was very nervous about this spell, she actually snuck into Mr. White's study and looked through the old crumbly book in its writing it says it almost feels like someone is grabbing your flesh and pulls it as if someone was trying to rip it from bare bone and muscle. The hair in the back of Vita's neck began to stand as the chills crawled down her spine raising goosebumps as soon as Mr. Whites spoke the first words from the book
"Nos aliquando cognovi De memoria, Cum potestate terra, aer, aqua, ignis, Oblivioni tradita est memoria semel, quod autem semel in nova et in ea memoriam.." the room came to life in matter of seconds, it felt as if someone released multiple hurricane causing everything in the room to lift and spin around Jayce, Allannia screamed and grabbed on to the wall, Vita grabbed her wrist as she leaned back into the wind her mark had begun to glow she was trying to make out what was going on with the circle and if everyone was still OK, but just as everything seem to calm down a bright light exploded from within the circle causing Vita to fly back into a wall before she blacked out she saw Allannia curled into a ball seeming to be passed out as well motionless like a doll, Aurora was bleeding from her head, her entire left eye was covered in blood as she sat motionless against the glass doors the only one to seem to be standing and still muttering words that now sound more like a very high pitched beeping almost as if a bomb went off next to her ear causing the very high pitched whistle almost. Her body went limp everything around her felt cold, a small sting kept her from completely passing out, her reaper mark was pulsing following the same rhythm as her heartbeat slow almost faint, and nonexistent but enough that it was still there.

Jayce had gone cold blacked out the instant he heard his dad cast the spell to remove the wall that kept him from his childhood memories, his mom was right about the spell hurting but she was so wrong about it hurting a little, it was pain like no other, he tried to scream he can hear his own screams but nothing comes out of his mouth the last thing he remembers is his dad speaking in a language he's not heard of, his mom being thrown against the wall and Vita trying to get close, he also remembered Allannia running towards the circle and being blasted away following a bright gold light. Just as he was blacking out, he heard a voice in his head that sounded old like the dragon he met before in the other world this time sounded more welcoming almost as if it belonged in his mind something familiar about that deep voice that spoke with such softness but yet so ancient " hear the name, feels the name, allows the name and you and I shall be reunited once again, my master CALL THE NAME YOU GAVE ME!" the voice final words a shout but yet fading just as Jayce did.

"What the hell did you go and get yourself into now young one" the ghostly voice echoed in her head but not in her ear, the voice felt like it did not belong to this world, the feeling was that of an Arctic winter night, the cold wind passing through your body, sending chills down your spine, it spoke again this time the voice almost fading away " now I know I have a responsibility to come every time your blown unconscious but don't make a habit out of it will you" the voice was completely gone now Vita slowly opened her eyes the first rays of light making it almost blinding for her to see anything, her head pounded like someone was banging a bat against it in a rhythm with her heart, she slowly tried to get up the ringing still in her ear" Ja-Jayce, Al- All-Allannia what happened" her voice raspy and dry like if she had taken a handful of sand and stuffed her mouth with it, her vision still blurry yet she can just barely see several out lines as she tried getting up inspecting the room she noticed some extra figures that weren't there before 3 of them looked like they were crawling sniffing the other figures that were laying on the ground. There is one figure that stood tall, but it was more of a black mist, slowly as Vita steadied herself against the wall everything began to focus in the 3 shadow figures that were crawling began to slowly shape into what seemed to be very muscular dogs, she began to slowly start hearing again, with that came growls and groans and some panting but she paid no attention to her heavy breathing it was more the growls they sounded demonic in nature, but that's when she felt the deep cold voice talking to her again " ah I see you can stand now, and do not worry your friends are alive and well" the giant misty figure looked back to the bodies that are laying on the ground and at the one who was still standing and then back at Vita and continues to speak almost as if time did not affect his voice " well they will live that's for sure but I do not know if they are awake, do not worry my hounds will make sure that they awake before I am done here, now listen try and stay out of trouble will you and don't let the young wizard die or out of your sight he'll need you one day and you will need him" The black mass moves as if it were a mist over to the 3 dogs and pets their head right before it squats over Jayce's body, white finger bones extended from the black mist slowly sliding over his cheeks and the voice echoes again " hmm you better watch over Vita, your life and hers became one on that faithful ceremony don't be the fool" with those last words every one began to stir except for Jayce. Vita was finally somewhat stable she looked at the black mist and spoke her voice still dry but almost back to normal now " Tu et qui ambulat in tenebris, et caligine de peregrinatione qui suus 'vox nullius est sensus sui, ex hoc nunc, quantus ad aetherium nomen meum horribile in VI de universis regnis " she speaks in a language she's never even practiced before but it was So fluent, just as she was about to celebrate her new found ability the mist slowly becomes more solid and it stands looking at her the figure under the hood now visible, it was a skull but it wasn't like a human skull it almost seemed like a mask, all of a sudden it smiled and the once deep voice was high pitched but still deep and very cheerful " yup that's me the one and only death the reaper buy you can call me pops" he says right before breaking out into a laugh his voice now being here instead of old and ancient more childlike in nature " I'll be off now before they wake, but Jayce needs to find his way back so do not fret he is alive but keep him rested and don't ever lose your feelings for him" Pops last word rang in her ear as a black horse speared from the shadows, and just as fast as they were there, they vanished.
