The world unseen

Chapter 14: the results & Nova's heart

Jaku's POV

I set the results down, I couldn't believe my eyes. this isn't right. this shouldn't exist, it's a myth. so, how can that simple girl be the Antichrist?

I take a seat, my head was spinning. in all of the books that I have read the coming of the Antichrist was supposed to signal the end of the world. But they always said that it would be a He not a her.

I stand up, the only place I can think of right now is our library. The overly large media center has everything on everything.

the walk was quick it was just down the hallway from where the garden is.

"Good Morning Jaku." I look over my shoulder to see one of my cousins, Mary Warrendale, sitting at the desk. she is a really weak witch due to her diluted blood. she's only 1/16th a Warrendale, but nether the less she was still one. and we need as many as we can get. especially if I'm right about this.

"uh, Morning Mare. what's drawn you to the library this time?" I say half joking. Mary was known to basically inhabit the Library, she's always found with a book in her hands.

"Oh just a little of light reading, nothing too interesting. What about you Jaku?" She asked. It felt like she was staring into my soul. Apart from her being a book worm. She's also a huge gossip, if she gets and idea of my theory about that girl spread it to Grandmother without a second thought.

"Oh you know me, just researching medicine" I told her. She just smiles and I walk in by her. And head to the Angel and Demon section to gather every book I could find on nephilim

I took a table and began reading as much as I could. I couldn't find much. Not many have been spotted. But her blood testes definitely tested as angelic along as human.

Nephilims are crazy powerful, it is said that the Antichrist would be one. But all stories tell that it would be a child of Lucifer. And angels haven't visited the earth in years. No one knows why the suddenly disappeared. Some rumors have it,  that heaven was taken over. But the is no hard evidence, it's not like an non-angelic being could enter heaven without dying and passing on.

There once was a story that Lucifer did have a child with a human but that was almost at the beginning of time. No way could Nova be it. She had a veil of innocence around her. Not to mention all the books say that the child was destroyed. Unless it wasn't.

I have to find out more. I close the books and head back to my room and began packing my bags. Once done I leave a note for my grandmother. It read:

I'm going out for a couple months on a researching project, I apologize for this being so last minute but it cannot wait. I'll send you updates once I understand the situation better.
Love, Jaku

I left it on my bedside table and grabbed one of the cars out of the many the estate owns to blind in woth the mundane society. I left with a pre-made tracking spell which I set on Alex. As it only activated by bonded blood.

Nova's Pov a day later

I stretched as i got out of Alex's guest bed. I've been here for a couple of days but it's time to go home. I only live around the corner so if Alex needs me she could come get me. But now with her new Dragon pet I doubt that would happen. It it weird that I'm jealous?

During breakfast the two of them were flirting, I doubt Alex even realizes that she is. She's never been in a relationship that I know of. So it's good that she's together with a guy who has sworn on his life to protect her. But it still feels like he stole her away from me.

Weston must have caught me gazing at them, because his blood red eyes met mine. A cold chill was sent through me, and I know it's not from the ghost. She's still in the the garage.

I averted my eyes. "Its time for me to go, you know where I am of you need me" I said softly as I felt my heart sink. I think my only problem is that I want a relationship too, but there's only one person who has ever felt right and it's been 9 years since I last saw him. I doubt he even remembers me.

I walk out to my car, and chuckle softly as I was thinking of him. His name was very suiting of him. Gale, named after a gust of wind. As his looks are breath taking, he is a gentle as the breeze and you have him for a short time and he's gone.

I still remember his gorgeous brown eyes, his Fluffy dark brown hair, and his tanned skin tone. And how he towered over my short self.

My heart still belongs to him. We met when I was 13 and he was 16, and I quite literally fell for him as during a race with the town youth group I was the lead but he caught up fast and accidentally tripped over me. I fell into the dead bushes and the rocks that lined them.

I didn't care that I was bloody as he caught my eyes. He helped me up and apologized profusely, but due to the immediate crush I couldn't feel the pain of it. Ever since then almost every activity the youth group did that involved the middle schoolers and high schoolers together we would hang out.

We sat on the bus together on the way to camp and I would remember how he would fall asleep on my shoulder. During the group lock in I actually fell asleep and according to Alex, he made a spot to look after me next to my makeshift bed of 4 chairs and lots of blankets.

I sigh as I got into my driver's seat, Della looked over. "What's the matter?" She asked passing through into the car.

"Oh uh... well just thinking of a what could have been" I told her, feeling my cheeks heat up.

"Oh ho" she said with a laugh "spill it"

"Oh shut up, you wouldn't care its sappy!" I complain

"So?! If its got you making that face then I wanna know!"

I gave a sad smile. "I'm just wishing I had a perfect romance like that" I said.

"Then just find someone, what's your type? I can get a good look and never get suspected"

"Its not that easy, I'm already in love, I have been for 9 years. It's just I never got the chance to tell him and now it's too late."

"Then date someone else" she said with a shrug

"Tried that with a Chick named Gabrielle, thought it would be serious but her views on some things are just too different to mine. Kept begging me to go to church with, and religious buildings make me very uncomfortable. Like I'm literally not allowed to be there"

"So? Just tell her that"

"I did!! But she told me it's just because I haven't found the right church yet" I scoff in anger when remembering that moment. "Like find certain group of people and then suddenly I realize I do believe in God!! what bullshit"

"Ok fine" Della put her hands up as a signal of defeat.

I sighed. "Sorry I'm not trying to lash out at you, it's just thinking of her pisses me off. It took so long to break things off because I didn't want to hurt her. She had told me that all of her past relationships have hurt her and I didn't want to add on to that. I faked my feelings for her for months going on to a year." I explained to the ghost.
