Hope Within

Chapter 3 The Awakening

Meanwhile back at Vala the time finally arrived for Jonathan. He walked to the stage and was checking all of the items he is going to use for the ritual. The last thing he needed is pure blood in this sacred vial that he put on his desk. Sherry came into Jonathan’s office and was wearing a black sundress with a rose on the bottom of the dress. She gave Jonathan a hug and started to tear up. He kisses Sherry on the lips and grabs the vial and walks out of the room. Rohan was waiting for him outside in his car. 

“So you ready to cause havoc in the city?” Rohan said, smirking as he put on his glasses.
 
30 minutes later Jonathan went to go speak up then suddenly he got a really cold chill down his spine. It's like there were dead eyes looking at the back of his head. It quickly turned around to look but there was nothing there then he turned back to the people and he saw Rohan smirking at him. Jonathan took a deep breath and began to speak.

“People of Vala and other religious beliefs, I come before you now not as a man but as a fellow seeker that found a secret that may help us all understand one another. I do not know the full extent of the power that I am going to show you all, but there was a man before you that did the research and was killed because of it. He was getting too much knowledge, but he was understanding and getting closer to the truth of our reality and the question. What is this world really? Why do religions separate all of us?  I believe that the Keunity IIevisha and Mistrozen religions are all connected. I believe the King and the church is to blame for this! I have proof that we can contact the spirits to find more answers to our questions we have. That being said I have reasons to also believe that we can control natural powers that flow around us.” Jonathan Made his statement.
The crowd started to boo...They didn't listen to a word he said and they immediately took offense to what he was trying to say, some of them were starting to throw rocks at Jonathan. Jonathan was doing his best to continue to speak while dodging them and one man screamed on top of his lungs and long silence came. Everybody stopped suddenly what they were doing as the man walked and approached Jonathan.

“I am Rain, I am part of the Ilevisha faith. You are believing that our teachings are the same? Not only that you say that the king and the church lie to us? You piqued my interest if you do have proof of what you speak I rather you show it. Although if you are correct then no one shall challenge you or the research you did, but if it fails death only awaits you because and nobody takes kindly and will not show any mercy of a blasphemer.” Rain spoke of a threatening voice.

 “How dare you threaten…” Rohan tries to add in but is interrupted by Jonathan.

“Rohan that is enough, no need to get involved... Rain I accept your proposal of which you allow me to speak and I only speak facts not opinions. The proof I will show you and all your eyes will be open. I am very confident it will show.” Jonathan started looking at Rain’s deathly looking eyes.
Jonathan began the ritual: he created a circle with a blue chalk and took out the vial. Then suddenly Rohan spotted a shady figure in the crowd walking towards an alley. He thought it was someone he knows and went to go follow. Rain looked at Rohan at the corner of his eye and smirked. Jonathan takes out the looks and does not see Rohan and takes a quick glance and sees a knight jumping from the sky and landing in front of him. The knight snatches the vial away from Jonathan.

“You give me the vile now!!!!” Jonathan with rage in his voice. Then Suddenly noticed that there was a blurry figure standing behind the crowd.

 I am Titus Darthfang, and this man right here a Blasphemer!!!!!”  Titus said, turning to the crowd and showing them the vial.

“This Vial right here is a curse item. That came with a cursed book that was sealed away with the Eternal City’s great chapel. If any of you witness what he did your nation would have to put you to death. Where is the book Jonathan? We don’t have to do this the ugly way.” Titus said, reaching his hand out ready to take the book from him.

“You set everything up…? You guys knew what I was doing and now you're doing this to make me the villain.” Jonathan said, He punched Titus on the face and took the vial back and started to run off. The people all charged at Jonathan. As he continues to run for his life a hand grabs him and pulls him into an alley he looks and it’s Rohan. Rohan took out twin pistols and started to shoot the angry crowd. There was a person in front of them, he started running at them but suddenly he got shot in the back of the head. Rohan looked and saw a woman on top of a roof that was sniping.

“Jonathan run now and get your family out of here now!!” Rohan screamed as he continued to shoot at the people that were coming towards them. Jonathan turned around and started to run immediately not looking back at Rohan. Rain punched Jonathan immediately right after with a kick right to his chest, that sent him flying back to the ground behind Rohan. Rain started walking towards them but Rohan ran up to him throwing punches at him, but Rain was dodging them, but in the middle of Rohan strike Titus pops out of nowhere and piece through Rohan’s rib with a sword. Titus lifts Rohan's body with the sword and tosses his body to Jonathan. Rain and Titus both look at him and smirk at him. That moment Jonathan heard a voice that said “Give Rohan the vial and tell him to crush it…” then it faded away. Rohan struggle to get up and vision was becoming blurry. 

“Rohan take this and crush with your hands. Don’t ask me why i just have a feeling that it can save you.” Jonathan said with worry in his vioce. Rohan took the vial and push Jonathan back and fell on one knee. With the determination in his eyes, he stood back up with rage.

“Jonathan, go now… Do not look back, find your family and get out of here… I will be fine. I can't die here, I have to meet my boy Von…” Rohan said gritting his teeth.  Jonathan turned away and bolted from the group. The two men walked towards Rohan, smirking that they could kill him.

“This isn’t over… As long as I still breath and move I will not let you leave here alive…” Rohan said looking at them.

“You can’t stop us, your human with nothing but a curse item. After we kill you, then you get to go to Hell and burn.” Titus said, smirking at him ready to finish Rohan off.

“How do you know where i’m going? Who gave you the power of judgement? I will say this… I don’t care what your king or church say… I am going to live how I want to live… I’m going to die how I WANT TO DIE!!! MY NAME IS SAVAGE!!!!” Rohan screams out as he crushes the vial. A big shockwave blew everything back and a menace red aura was coming from Rohan and his wound was gone and he held an axe that’s big as his body. Savage is born the power within him has awakened. 

“It’s time.” Savage said...
