I lay on my bed, staring at the ceiling as thoughts raced through my mind like a whirlwind. The events of the day kept replaying over and over, each memory a punch to the gut, reminding me of everything I had lost—and everything I still had to lose. Helena, the love of my life, is now with Stephan, her new savior. Cinderella was the woman who seemed hell-bent on proving herself to me, yet I couldn’t shake the feeling that she had her own agenda. And Derek, my mentor, was trying to drill some sense into me when all I wanted was to drown in my own confusion.

But none of that matters now. The Demon King was out there, gathering strength, and the clock was ticking down to our inevitable confrontation. I could feel the pressure building up inside me—a mixture of fear and anger—and the weight of the world on my shoulders. The training was helping, sure, but I couldn’t ignore the nagging doubt gnawing at the edges of my mind. Would I be enough? Was I strong enough, smart enough, and worthy e

    "What did you tell Cinderella for her to come and question me?" The demon king barked at his son, William. "Trust me, father, I said nothing." Williams lied, turning away his eyes. "You mean you told her nothing? Then why did she have to ask me about her birth?" The demon king shouted "Fine, she is being silly, and I called her a bastard." Williams finally said "You did what? If my plans go to waste because of you, then you will definitely bear the pain that comes along with it. Cinderella could do things better and faster than you could ever will, and you dare call her a bastard." The demon king thundered, and Williams fell to his knees. "I am sorry, father. I don't mean to get you angry." The door made a sound, and the Demon King shifted his gaze towards the door. He stood up slightly and walked stealthily, trying not to make a sound. In a flash, he was at the door, and he opened it. He heaved a sigh of relief, seeing that no one was there. "I don't know what you are going to do

    Cinderella walked out of the room, her heart pounding in her chest. The anger and confusion she felt were nearly overwhelming. She had never seen her father, the Demon King, so furious before, and the way he had transformed into his demon form made her realize just how precarious her situation was. As she moved down the dark corridor, the words William had called her echoed in her mind: *Bastard.* She clenched her fists, trying to push down the emotions threatening to consume her. For so long, she had been searching for answers about her mother, about her origins. And now, with that one word, William had confirmed her worst fears. Was she really not of the same blood as him? Was she truly an outsider in her own family?Cinderella quickened her pace, heading toward her chambers. She needed time to think, to process everything that had just happened. The walls of the demon castle seemed to close in around her, their ancient stone surfaces suffocating in their oppressive silence. She ha

    All the demons gathered right in front of the Demon King, with William by his side. "Have you seen Cinderella?" he asked, looking at Williams and back at Eleanor. "She should be here any minute." Eleanor replied, knowing he was buying her sometime. "My fellow demons, I know we have all lived in the shadows for so long in fear of the reapers. But we need to lay low for now. The time is not there yet, and we need to bid out time. We are going to take over the world and rule it. I fear for us all because the CHOSSEN one is out there, and he is ready to destroy us all. We can't go back to sleep anymore. We have to stay." " Stay! Stop!!." the demons shouted. Eleanor, on the other hand, was busy looking at scroll after scroll, trying to find out who her mother was. She opened drawer after drawer. She looked up to see a pile of books on the shelves before her. Standing akimbo, her face showed she was frustrated. She couldn't hear the noise of the demons anymore. She knew the meeting was g

    The castle was silent as Cinderella went into the study chamber of the demon king. She slightly opened the secret passage, and she was mesmerized by what she saw. Inside a cubicle, a woman was caged. Her eyes glowed with such extraordinary energy that Cinderella wondered who it was. She walked slowly around the glass tube and wondered how long she had been caged. She could feel the connection between this strange woman and herself. "Could she be my mother?" Cinderella said to herself as she took a step closer to the tube. Suddenly, she saw a flash of energy radiate around the woman. It's almost like she was protecting herself from something or someone. "I won't harm you." Cinderella said, slowly looking at her face. Her eyes were closed, and she wasn't speaking to her. The woman suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Cinderella, who walked back in two steps. She was scared. The woman's eyes were blue, indicating her powerful nature. "What are you?" Cinderella said, slowly walking

    Cinderella’s breath was ragged, her heart pounding in her chest as she pressed herself against the cold stone wall. The cell was dark, the only light coming from a small barred window high above her head, casting long shadows that danced eerily on the floor. The air was damp, and the smell of mildew filled her nostrils, making it hard to breathe. She heard the voice again, soft and hushed, coming from somewhere beyond the darkness. “Who’s there?” she whispered, her voice trembling as she scanned the cell for any sign of life. There was no response, only silence, save for the distant drip of water echoing through the chamber. Cinderella's mind raced, replaying the events that had led her here. The demon king’s fury, the revelation of her mother’s true identity, and the cryptic message about Max… Whatever he was, he was her only hope now. Suddenly, she felt a presence beside her, and she spun around, her back pressed against the wall. A shadowy figure emerged from the darkness, tall

    Cinderella looked back as she took to her heels with some of the demon guards behind her back. "Get her and bring her back here!" The demon king shouted at some of the guards who were staring at him. "Make sure she doesn't leave this kingdom." "Run!" the man with the green eyes said again. Cinderella ran with her heart beating fast against her chest. She knew there was no hope for her anymore once she was caught by the demon king. She was going to suffer the same fate her mother had suffered. Cinderella still didn't understand why her mother was trapped and why she had been like that for many years. She looked back, and the footsteps of the demon chasing her were getting nearer. Although she knew all the nooks and crannies of the kingdom, she was still scared of being caught. Cinderella immediately placed her hands on the floor, and the ground beneath the demons began to shift. The walls changed like a puzzle while the ground became moist under their feet. "What is happening?" One

    Cinderella stumbled away from the cafeteria, her heart racing. She could still feel the eyes of the students boring into her back, their murmurs echoing like a distant hum in her ears. Helena's worried face lingered in her mind, but she couldn't afford to think about it now. The only thought that filled her mind was the urgency of finding me.She needed to hide. She could feel the demon guards closing in on her, their presence like a dark cloud on the horizon. With each step, her senses were on high alert, anticipating an attack. She knew the demon king wouldn't give up easily. He would never let her escape without a fight. She looked around the campus, searching for a secretive place where she could collect her thoughtsCinderella spotted the old library, tucked away in the far corner of the campus. She made her way to it, avoiding the main paths and moving as quickly as her feet could carry her. The library door creaked open as she slipped inside, the musty smell of old books and du

    " What do you know about Max's powers?" William asked as his eyes darted around the campus searching for Cinderella who had gone into hiding ever since she ran away from home. " I don't know much about his abilities except that he was a grim reaper. He got his powers right before his death or should I say at the point of death." Elena replied "Hmm, you mean to tell me he got his powers when he was about to die?" William asked and Elena nodded. At least that was what I had asked her to tell him " All we need is just to have him killed for real this time." William said not following his father's plan. The plan was to bring me back to the demon world but here was a son going against his father's will. " Do you think you can handle him on your own?" Elena asked feigning to be worried about him." I have Zack and the rest of the gang. I am sure we can handle Max on our own." William replied. " I think I need to go now. I have a few classes to attend." Elena said walking away. She was ab

    The Final Battle****************The gods and the goddess have been keeping silent over the fight with Kluas. The fate of both worlds hanged in balance without the future uncertain. One thing I knew was that I needed to play my part in bringing balance to both worlds. I needed to defeat Klaus and also rid the university grounds of bullies. The only way to do that was to rid the bag eggs out, but I need to cut the head of the snake for the snake to die permanently. I laid on the bed, rolling up and down. I needed a plan if I was going to defeat Klaus and Zack. Both were born evil and would do anything to win. My mind raced as I thought about what was going to happen to me when I rid the earth of evil again. I don't want to die, and I also wanted to be with my heart. I knew Helena would be devastated if I died once again.I need to draw Klaus out. He was weak, and he is going to need time to heal himself. The best way to show him to the world was to bring him out in the open. Bringing

    "Where do you think he might be off too?" Derek asked, looking at me. "I don't know, but I am pretty sure he would go to a place far from here." I replied Zeoy walked up to me and said, "LLet me see." She said slowly checking out my face. She healed me, and Helena rushed towards my side. "We need to get off the university premises." She said it in haste. We immediately got into the car and zoomed out of the compound. My mind went back to Peter's family, which is my family now. I took out my phone and placed a call to Emma. "Are you alright? What about our parents?" I asked in haste, trying to know if Kluas had gone over to the house. "Slowly down," Emma said over the phone. My pulse quickened as I awaited her answer. "Can you just tell me what I asked from you?" I said quickly. "Well, Boyd here is doing a fine job protecting us. I am sure we are in capable hands," she replied. "I am on my way. I should be back at home any minute now." I replied, and I cut off the call. "We need

    I felt my pulse quicken as I stared at Zack—or rather, at the being that had taken control of him. Kluas had merged with Zack’s body, his glowing eyes revealing the god's overwhelming presence, and the menace in his voice left no doubt. “You don’t have to do this, Zack,” I said, keeping my tone steady, though the tension in the air was palpable. My hand twitched slightly, ready to summon the power of the Reaper’s territory if needed. “Kluas is using you. He doesn’t care about you, he’s just trying to survive. Once he’s done, you’ll be nothing.” Zack laughed, the sound echoing off the empty court in a way that made my skin crawl. “You always were naive, Max. Kluas isn’t using me. We are one now. I’ve always wanted power, and now I have it—limitless, godlike power. Together, we’ll crush anyone who stands in our way.” I stood my ground, my eyes scanning the area for any advantage.I knew that fighting Zack head-on, while he was possessed by Kluas, wasn’t the best plan. Kluas, a god

    The tension was high as we drove towards the university grounds. "Do you think anyone is going to be on campus?" Helena asked, looking anxious. "We need to be certain that no one is there. Kluas would need a soul to merge with or go into extinction if he can't." I replied "Why not bond with anyone on the street? Why come down here?" Zeoy asked again. "I am not sure, alright. I don't know how a god is supposed to think." I replied harshly, and everyone was silent. "I am sorry, guys. I am just a bit anxious." "We all are." Derek said increasing the jeer We drove into the university grounds, and everywhere seems peaceful. "Do you think he is here?" Gilbert looked around. "He should be; I can feel him." I replied"This is what we are going to do. I want everyone to fan out and check the dorms. Search everywhere and give a call once you see anything or anyone that looks fishy." I replied I brought out a flash torchlight and gave it to everyone. "Don't engage; Kluas is dangerous, and

    Zeoy felt a kind of power she had never felt before. She slowly removed herself from the iron rod that had impaled her against the wall. Derek also felt more powerful than ever. "What is going on?" Kluas shouted in anger. And then something else happened. A territory appeared on the ground, giving immense power to all the reapers. Peter's eyes glowed, and his cut began to heal. Emma looked up, and out of fright, she ran away from Peter. " How? You were supposed to be dead." Kluas shouted out of fright. He quickly moved fast towards Peter, and he was gripped down by Peter 2. A soft smile played on Peter's lips. "Do you think you can stop us? I am unstoppable, and now you are going to know how powerful I am." I shouted as I and Peter merged, becoming one. "Derek, get everyone out of here." I said, looking at Derek's face. "You heard the boss; let's get out of here." He said, looking at Zeoy. "I am staying." Emma shouted as Derek pulled her up from the dusty floor. "Don't worry, you

    "We need to leave. If Derek is willing to sacrifice his life for us, then we need to take the chance now and get out of here." Zeoy shouted at Boyd Gilbert adjusted his glasses and immediately ran towards Helena. He grabbed her by the waist and made way for the main gate. Emma looked at Zeoy angrily. "This was not the deal. You said you needed me to get my brother to corporate. Now that he doesn't, you want to leave him alone to die?" She yelled out her lungs. "Listen to me, kiddo. Your brother understands the sacrifices he needs to make for himself and the family. Do you think someone forced him to be here? He came willingly on his own because Kluas threatened to kill you all if he didn't." Zeoy looked into Emma's eyes, and she began to sob. "Please save him. Please save my brother." Emma fell on her knees despite the walls crumbling around her. Zeoy looked at her and back at Boyd and Helena. "Your brother is..." Emma raised her head slightly up, looking into her face.

    Derek looked back at the Whitmores as they stood frozen in the aftermath of the fight. The tension in the room was thick, the air heavy with unsaid fears and a sense of impending doom. Derek's eyes darted to Emma, her determination shining through her fear. She was a brave soul, much like her brother, and Derek couldn't help but respect her opinion, even if he felt unsure about having her along."Emma, stick close," Derek instructed, his voice low but firm as they exited the mansion. The team moved swiftly, blending into the night as they walked the darkened streets. Zeoy took the lead, her eyes scanning for any sign of Klaus or Peter, her senses heightened by the adrenaline coursing through her veins.Boyd kept his gaze forward, his mind racing with thoughts of what Klaus might do now that he had Peter in his clutches. He knew the others could sense his worry, but there was no time for reassurances. They were all too aware of what was at stake.***************************************

    " Hello!" Zeoy shouted over the phone. Peter 2 without being told knows where to find Kluas. He beat off a young man off his powerbike and drove at a fast speed into the night. Meanwhile, Zeoy started to track Derek's phone, and it wasn't long before she found them all lying down, beating to a pulp. Zeoy noticed some minor injuries and immediately treated their wounds. Each of them got up, looking at her face. "He snapped and had us knocked out. Did you get him?" Gilbert asked "I am sorry, but when I got here, he was gone." Zeoy replied, watching Derek. "I told him I was going to protect her. I failed." Derek said with regret in his voice. "Now is not the time to sulk, Derek. We don't know what will happen to Peter. Do you know what happens when Klaus gets his power back? We lost this fight, and we became another pawn in his plan." Zeoy said with haste. "We need to admit it, Zoey. We are lost, and I don't think we can find him. I think our fate lies in the hands of a boy who doesn

    I was about to launch an attack at Kluas when Emma's phone rang again. Kluas had a sinister smile on his face as Zeoy and I looked at him. "Why don't you get that? It sounds pretty urgent." He said it with a smile on his face. "Do you think I care about them? Sending you back to where you belong will actually be saving a lot of lives." I replied as my face showed the mirror power within me. I can only pray that Derek and the rest of the reaper help in finding Helena on time. "You are going to give me what I want one way or the other, Max; there is no fighting it." Kluas smiled My phone rang again, and this time it was Peter's mother. "Don't come home, son; stay where you are." Selena said with a scared tone. I could hear the sound of crashing underneath. "What is going on, mother?" I shouted "Don't come home! They are trying to break in. Just stay where you are!" She shouted yet again. I looked at Kluas, and my eyes blazed with fury. I noticed my body twitched as Peter was trying
