A Zodiac Tale

Lucian v/s Vor

All the zodiacs arrived the Owl Palace. Asteria greeted, "Welcome zodiacs, now you all are here.... So, Scorpio let's continue with the next page"
"Ok", he asked for the book. He was going to read and "What the hell Aries and Sagittarius, behave well", Leo shouted at them. Everyone looked at Leo, "I wanted to read but it is okay for Scorpio to read, right? ...(he noticed everyone staring at him) What?" "Uh! Nothing.", Virgo said.
Scorpio asked, "Why don't you read if you want to read?" Scorpio handed the book to Leo. Leo started reading, "There was a big fight going on. Caitlyn finally died and Lucian gone rogue. He drank Caitlyn's blood and evolved into a new form. His powerful hands ripped Vor's heart out. Vor's body died but his heart was still beating. Ophelia, Vor's wife, snatched the heart and hid somewhere. Lucian was still evolving. He kept Vor's body inside the coffin. Ophelia kept the heart at a big box with a spell on it. She hid the box somewhere and suddenly she got attacked and killed. She got killed by Raven and Lucian. Raven was the loyal partner in crime of Lucian whom he met lately. Lucian soon married her but Lucian was tricked and all the vampires accused him of being a betrayer and killing his own brother for power. He was tortured by vervain and holy water. He was already guilty enough for Caitlyn's death and plus regret. His mental weakness caused him to leave the vampire world. He was caged, surrounded by silver walls. Hence, he was powerful, blood was always sent to him so that he does not act aggressive, thriving for blood. In this way, everyone thought Vor deserved the throne of power so Ophiuchus was chosen as the next king."

"Is it finished?", Leo closed and kept the book on the table. "It's still a secret where Vor's heart is kept", Pisces said. "Ophiuchus would definitely try to find it out", Libra said. "He-", Libra suddenly stopped because Ophiuchus blackmailed her of her parents' death. She would definitely not take any risk. "He, who?", Aries asked. "No, nothing", she just smiled and blew it off. Scorpio grew in suspicion. Virgo whispered to Taurus, "Libra is acting different since morning"

Aquarius shouted at Gemini, "Why are you so in Ophiuchus? Don't you know him? How he is? He is just going to use you and will leave you when you'll really need help, did you understand?"
"If I like him then why do you care so much? Why are you opposing so much? You never said these to Capricia."
"I am telling you because you are my best friend out here. I can just see that Cancer will be a better option for you, not Ophiuchus"
"I know who is better for me and don't talk about Cancer please. I guess you like Ophiuchus, right? You are just jealous."
"I am not jealous. I don't just get it that why are you being so different these days. You seem like changing."
Gemini just stares at Aquarius for a few moment and then looks away.

All went to eat something. Scorpio asked Libra, "Is everything alright? You can tell me" "Something is not right. I mean, something is going to happen", Libra said. She looked a bit anxious.

She felt something and ran towards the library. She searched for that book and touched and felt it. She saw something. She was about to exit the library but Ophiuchus appeared, "Hey Libra! How are you? Aww looking so tensed." "You are going to awake your father?"
"Oh yeah!"
"You are going to kill my family, if I don't help you", Libra is getting too much scared. "I am going to be destroyed. I am going to die?"
"You have much time for that. Not so soon you're gonna die. But yes, you are gonna die."
"But you are not going to succeed in your plan", Libra said to Ophiuchus making him angry.
"Stop it and come with me" "No", Libra refused to go but Ophiuchus took her with him. Scorpio searched for Libra but did not find her. He shouted, "Libra! Libra!" No response. All got tensed. "Where did Libra go?", Aries wondered. Asteria spoke then, "Maybe Ophiuchus came here"
Scorpio was filled with rage. He grew in his new form but Asteria stopped her, "No, Scorpio. This is not the right time. You can't find them out. We need some other help"

Ophiuchus appeared in front of Gemini and Aquarius. He pushed Libra towards the wall. "So, she is going to work for us now, right?", Gemini asked. Aquarius looked at Libra. She started to have a hope that she will make everything fine. But it was just her belief. What is gonna happen in future is unknown but rest is already told by Libra.

Future:- Ophiuchus is gonna awake his father. Will he succeed in his plan? He planned for a civil war. He already took Libra with him. What is Libra going to do? If he succeeds, he will kill all the zodiacs or else will make them his servants. Who is gonna stop him?
