The Seventh Son Chapter 14
Clarris walked away frustrated, she had made a promise all those centuries ago and was not planning to go back on her words. There was definitely another way to kill that Nemo. She went into her chambers and paced the room, her mind was going nuts. She might have no heart pumping in her but she had honor.A knock came on her door but she declined to respond. She was in no mood for company. After realizing that she was not going to open the door, Darrell showed himself in further infuriating her.“Get out now!” Clarris yelled at top of her voice.“You should stop Cleselda from sacrificing the Dark Knights”“I was thinking of a solution before you rudely interrupted me, now get out!” Clarris yelled out again.Darrell began walking out but stopped in his track, turned, and said “If any Dark knights are killed I will betray you”Clarris stopped pacing the room and faced him, “Did you just threaten me?”“Centuries ago I had no choice and I do not want to see other knights get their choices

Marcus tried running for help but was pulled back, “Stay right there or I will break your neck,” Clarris yelled out.“What do you want? Get out of my head.”“I want your eyes Marcus and the hate you have for that Nemo,” She hissed.Marcus swallowed hard “I do not know what you are talking about?”“I see it in your eyes, Marcus, you hate that thing sucking the life out of your father. What guarantee do you have that it will not kill you all after it is done with your father?”Marcus laughed, “From the stories, I have heard I thought you were the smartest woman on earth but I'm disappointed. Whether the Nemo is alive or not, we are all still doomed.”Clarris was quiet, she wasn't expecting Marcus to be this smart.“Nevertheless, your life for the Nemo's, I want to see it with your eyes. Go in the dungeon now,” she ordered.“You are really stupid, the Nemo will sense you,” Marcus reminded her.“It won't, as long as you keep your mouth shut, tell anyone and I will squeeze the life out of
The Seventh Son Chapter 16
Within a flash, Clarris, Darrell, and Cleselda disappeared. King Jerald and his family froze in fear and each could hear their own heart beating. They were all terrified and kept staring at the Nemo as it waved its spiked fluke. It noticed their eyes all over it and sensed their fear forcing it to go back underwater.“Omen!” King Jerald called out whilst crawling near the water. “My love, we have no idea if it can recognize us or not,” Rachel tried warning her husband but Jerald blocked her with his hand.“In how many forms is it? Is it a shapeshifter?” Nephius asked.“A Pixiu, Nixie, and Naga form a Nemo,” King Jerald replied.“Omen, come out! We are not going to hurt you,” King Jerald yelled out again. His wife and sons stared at him in shock, they couldn't believe what he had just said.“Father, it's us who are scared of it, not the other way around….” Daniel corrected.Instead of coming out of the water, its Fluke came out at a speed of light, getting past everyone who screamed

“Aaaàaaaàaaaaa” “Aaaàaaaàaaaaa” Clarris kept screaming and tearing through the glass windows of her dark castle. Darrell felt his ears wet, he placed his fingers into his ears, removed them, and saw blood. Cleselda yelled at Clarris to shut up. But Clarris turned and looked at her furiously, “you lied to me….. you lied to me!”“Child, do not call me a liar, you disobeyed my orders, we need knights…” Cleselda reminded her.“Shut up! I made a promise a long time ago,”The witch moved over, “my child, promises are made to be broken. Plus the person you made that promise to is already dead, he died centuries ago.”“No!” Clarris yelled out.“Clarris, you saw what happened, if it wasn't for the fact that you have no heart you would be dead by now. That thing aimed for your heart, it meant to kill you!”Clarris moved to her bed and sat down, “he saw my house without permission, he looked into my eyes without fear. I have read all the books about Nemos and water was their weakness but to h

Omen sat below the flooded dungeon the entire day. His brothers had tried getting him to come up but to no avail. “Maybe he is dead,” Lotus pointed out. The other brothers gave him the crazy look. “He clearly just doesn't want to be bothered,” Barrick said in a sad voice.The dungeon door opened, Rachel and king Jerald walked in. Everyone could see that king Jerald was getting worse every day. A new day meant less time for him. He ordered all his sons and wife to leave the room.He crawled near the last stair and spoke, “Son I know you can hear me…” before he could finish his sentence, Omen came up excitedly.“ thou look ill,” he asked“Yes my son now stop sharing your energy with me, you have to reserve it for Clarris. Stop trying to serve me,” King Jerald pleaded.“Stepmother shall hate me,” Omen said in a sad voice.King Jerald looked at him surprised, “what do you mean by that, Rachel understands that I am doing this for your brothers and to end the curse,”“I read her thoughts a

Clarris wore a pink silk dress with pearls and diamonds laced on it. For centuries she had been putting on black only but today she decided to change color. Darrell couldn't believe what his eyes were seeing. Clarris was beautiful but before the curse, she was the innocent simple type but now the fearlessness added to her beauty and she looked elegant.“Close that jaw before a bug enters it,” she said to Darrell, who kept staring at her.Darrell snapped out of it and looked away. Cleselda joined them but was not too pleased with asking for the knights from the emperor.“Are you honestly going to let this useless thing dictate your decisions,” Cleselda asked whilst pointing at Darrell?Darrell scoffed and looked away. “Why do you have the tendency to spoil a beautiful morning?” Clarris replied.“We are running out of time, every second that thing in Ergad is becoming stronger,” Cleselda said.Clarris sighed, “first of all the Nemo is still holding on to King Jerald, that's his weakne

A shivering General Bentrek drew his sword and pointed it at Clarris, “over my dead body am I going to allow you to reach my emperor.” “You asked for it,” Clarris said and drew her hands but was stopped by the presence of a furious Emperor Marcelo.“You just broke your own words by stepping into this land,” the emperor stated.General Bentrek quickly ran to the emperor's side “my lord what are you doing outside, go back inside with the others?”The emperor looked around and was disgusted at the sight of all his men snoring. It was embarrassing, to say the least. “What do you want, Clarris?”“Is this how you welcome your aunt, have some manners, we come in peace,” Clarris replied.“In peace??? You have my men on the ground!” The emperor rolled. Emperor Marcelo was a very heavy fire whirled and had a huge beard that added fearlessness to him. He was feared by most of his subjects and even though he was standing in front of Clarris, he maintained his fearlessness.Clarris moved forward
The Seventh Son Chapter 21
The brothers finally managed to relocate Omen into the main dungeon. They were tired and hungry. They had been digging the whole day.“You know it's funny that he can beat up Clarris but can't dig his own pool," a very tired Daniel stated.“Whom quoth I't dig a tunnel,” Omen replied while splashing water on Daniel. Daniel closed his eyes “please do not tell me he said he is capable of digging?”“I think so,” Miguel replied.Omen swam into the corner, raised his hands, and the pond his brothers had been digging the entire Afternoon began sinking down into a narrow pit.He raised his hands and whirded water into it and began swimming in it. His brother's jaws hung in shock. “Why on Earth would he make us dig when he was capable,” Barrick cried out.“No no why was he making me whilrd water all this time when he can,” a very annoyed Marcus asked.“He is a bloody bully just like king Jerald's firstborn son,” Lotus repliedNephius eyed Lotus but was too tired to give a response.Omen kept

Clarris looked at Omen disappointed, even though he once informed her that she needed to apologize to the people, Clarris was always coming up with excuses. She really wanted to apologize but was scared of being cast out by the people. She never left her tower and was always attending to her flowers. But in the morning Omen pleaded with her to accompany him to the crowning ceremony. At first, she refused but Omen assured her that Rachel was not going to attend and convinced her that it was a good opportunity to ask for an apology because everyone was in the celebratory moodBut when she got off Omen's back the first person she saw was Rachel, she looked at the other brothers and could see the unwelcoming look, she turned and was about to fly off when Rachel called out her name.She stopped Midway“Clary,” Rachel called out on top of her voice.

“What's going on?” Nephius asked.“We came for thy crowning,'' Pixiu replied, sending the crowd into murmuring. They could not believe that it could talk.“Do not tell me that we were not invited?” the Nixie spat out.“You are invited of course, but can you all please shapeshift into human form. You are scaring the people,” Nephius pleaded while looking at the Naga Omen.“Come make us,” it repliedOut of nowhere, a small boy ran towards the Pixiu and asked for a ride. His terrified mother came running and t1ried to lift him but the Pixiu moved forward and placed its feather on the ground for the boy to climb up. The boy was so excited and climbed up. More children came forward and he was able to put a lot of them on his back and flew off exciting the children.“Do not even think about that with me! The Naga Omen stated.“No one would want to climb on a snake, '' the Nixie teased, sending everyone into laughter.“I want to swim with you,” one of the women asked the Nixie.The Nixie eye

Nixie Omen left the room and joined the night catcher. Their mother appeared with a smile on her face. “Someone looks happy,” Nixie Omen teased.Immediately she heard modern English and her smile was wiped out. She asked where the Naga Omen was and before Nixie Omen could finish explaining everything.She yelled in frustration forcing both the night catcher and Nixie Omen to cover their ears. She spent the whole day making Clarris's tomb but finding out that Omen separated his entity only met one thing. She tried teleporting but she was blocked and pushed back.After failing to penetrate the spell she ordered Nixie Omen, but he disappeared and did not want to be involved in the family drama. The Naga yelled and went banging on the door. “Clarris I have made you your tomb,” she kept yelling but she got no response.Inside the room, Clarris could hear the Naga screaming but she ignored her. “Maybe back then if I had seen who your father was the curse could not have happened,” she joked

The all-ride Clarris was quiet and only replied with a yes or no. Even though Omen did not like her attitude he played along.They landed on Dark Tower and found the Night Catcher. Clarris rolled her eyes and passed him, went straight to her room, and locked the room behind her. Omen asked the Night Catcher to ignore her. He knew it was waiting for her soul but also knew that it wouldn't take it forcefully. “On our wedding, thou be mine best man,” he stated. The night catcher eyed him confused and asked him to clarify if he had heard him correctly. Omen only smiled and teleported into Clarris's room.“Are you Stupid, get out of my room,” she yelled at him but Omen threw himself on the bed and joked about the fact that she had a bed? A very irritated Clarris walked over to the bed and ordered him to get up but Omen pretended to be asleep. She got a pillow and hit him hard but got no reaction. “Omen get up, you are not sleeping in here,” she kept yelling and hitting him.In a swift,

Nephius walked into his mother's chambers and informed her of his plans. She lay on her bed uninterested in whatever he was saying. She kept her face to the war and avoided facing him. He tried pleading with her but she was not budging. And requested him to run his kingdom the way he wanted to. Nephius looked down the floor sadly, he did not have an idea with who to be disappointed with. There was no way he was going to rule without his mother's help or blessings. And on the other hand, he needed Omen. He was stuck, his rule was turning out to be a nightmare before it even started. In Arthora, emperor Marcelo sat in his chambers pissed. The sorcerer he sent after the Princess returned and updated him on Everything. He ordered him to get ten thousand of his men ready. It was war, he was hundred percent sure the sons were coming for him.“I will take at least one of them to hell with me,” he roared out. The sorcerer tried to reason with him but his stubbornness wouldn't allow the so

They all looked at each other blankly, all this time they were more concerned with their mother's reaction and forgot about what their subjects would think. “So what is going to be of our brothers' graves,” Miguel asked.“It was just a toy grave brother, they were never physically buried in there,” Barrick replied.Nephius suggested that they worry about that later what was important to them was finding a solution to how they were going to free the descendants of Ergad. They all walked back into the castle and began strategizing.“Are we not supposed to crown you king first!? Lotus asked.“I want to be crowned in front of my people, Prince Lotus, not in front of my brothers,” Nephius replied.His brothers smiled, their entire lives they never associated themselves with the title of Prince but finally, they were going to be addressed by that title. It was still a victory to them even though the thought of their father not being around to witness it all hammered the back of their heads

Rachel spit on the ground and looked at Clarris with disdain, then turned and looked at Nephius. “Your first rule has a king and you choose to dine with the snake that cursed you!” Nephius only looked down in shame. But his other brothers were right, he needed Omen and Clarris had the Naga to worry about more than them. Marcus walked over to where Rachel was standing and reminded her of the day she defended him when he had betrayed his brothers not once but twice.“Mother, remember when everyone wanted me punished or should I say dead? You said Omen kept me alive because he was in need of me?” “What has that got to do with this snake!” Rachel asked“We need Omen, Omen likes the snake so we will let him play with it until he gets tired or she hurts him and the Naga kills her?” Lotus replied. Clarris couldn't believe what she was hearing, she clenched her teeth and was about to say something but Omen held her hand.Rachel looked at them with spite, turned, and walked back into the cas

Nephius clenched his fist and a bit of frost came out. Miguel gave him a stay calm look.’ They all felt insulted but they needed Omen if they were going to reberate their people from the emperor's rule. Without Omen all were just a couple of brothers with abilities while the emperor had thousands of Dark Nights. The game changed, it was all about the future now and not the past.“Remember let the Naga deal with Clarris,” Marcus whispered.“Where would you like to have your Picnic from?” Nephius asked with difficulty, surprising both Omen and Clarris. Even his other brothers were shocked. Among them Nephius was the most Arrogant and putting his pride aside In a short amount of time was surprising.“In the garden,” Clarris replied knowing very well it was the place where the graves of all the sons she had harvested lay. Even though everything was now burnt down.The brothers held on to their anger “But first Omen, you have an apology to make,” Nephius stated to which Clarris laughed an
