They all looked at each other amazed, “I think that's the route we are supposed to take?” Lotus stated while inspecting the exit.

“Lotus wait?” Marcus shouted out, “What if it's Cleselda?”

“Naaah, that ugly witch likes hissing but all I'm hearing is a heartbeat,” Lotus replied and went on with his inspection. The closer he moved, the more audible the heartbeat became. “Guys I think you have to hear this,” he urged them

“What are you doing Lotus,” the Princess asked

“Just move and hear it,” Lotus urged.

They all obliged and began moving towards the exit and to their surprise, the heartbeat sound was more audible near the separated rocks.

“The heart is calling us, are you all hearing that?” Lotus said in excitement “We do not need the ass stupid witch Clarris,” he added and looked at Clarris who was so pissed, she was practically breathing fire.

“We need a plan, we can not all go and leave Omen here,” Darrell suggested.

“I will remain behind,” Clarris volunteered.

    Cleselda kept eyeing her foggy glass ball with frustration, “eyes of the soul, ears of the spirit show me what I seek?” she chanted with closed eyes then opened them but her glass ball was still foggy. “eyes of the soul, ears of the spirit show me what I seek?” she repeated this time while yelling but again there was nothing.She kept repeating the phrase over and over again but the ball kept giving her foggy images.“He is alive!! something stronger than me is shielding him, he is alive!” she hissed out.“But we saw him fall asleep??? Then you burnt him to ashes. Then the other one turned into ash,” The emperor spoke out.“Did you see the Nemo in the Pixiu form? Did you? Do not just stand there and tell me things I already Know,” Cleselda shouted on top of her voice. “You are all useless, very useless! At least Clarris and Darrell used to use their brains but you have nothing!” she added while throwing the ball in mid-air.The emperor just stared at her in silence, he was used to Cl

    The entire Library was littered with books, Cleselda spent hours surfing through the library for answers. Her magic was useless which forced her to go back to the drawing board and the library was the best place to start. Her mind was full of regret, if only she had not burnt the Naga, she thought to herself. All of a sudden, the emperor burst in with General Zen, “My men were unable to find the two brothers; it's like they have vanished into thin air,” he stated.Clarris snorted in disdain, they could tell from the falling skin on her body that she was stressed out and boiling up, so they kept their distance.“And your sparrows are nowhere to be seen,” the emperor added.Cleselda stared at the pair with anger“We last saw them when we encountered the death Gray,” the General spoke up. At the mention that Cleselda got up, “you encountered a what?”“A Death Greyrey,” General Zen replied.“Death Gray's are long gone, and you wouldn't be alive to tell the tale if you indeed encountered

    Cleselda walked to the recovery room furiously, following behind her, was the Emperor fuming. They both entered the recovery room and found the General walloping in pain. Cleselda quickly placed her hand on his head and chanted some words over and over again then she stopped.“Move aside,” she ordered the emperor, the emperor moved and to his surprise, the general stood up and began transforming into a larger than normal hideous half man half beast.“What have you…..?” he asked Cleselda in a terrified voice.“Like I said your Knights are useless, they need an upgrade,” Cleselda replied.The hideous general roared out with furry, its entire body was covered with burns while his head had one protruding horn and one eye. The left eye was completely burnt out in the fire. He had long crawls and sharp canine teeth that hung out of his mouth.“Kneel my son,” Cleselda said out like a proud mother.The General knelt, “Go and kill the one that gave you these scars, go and avenge yourself my s

    The hideous general hailed out in pain and dropped to the ground. Darrel shapeshifted back into human form and yelled at the two brothers to run. Lotus quickly picked up Clarris and made a run for it but Cleselda magically appeared in front of them, raised her hand, and sent the brothers flying in mid-air.Darrell tried shapeshifting into a beast but Cleselda waved her hand again and turned him into a mouse. “You stupid traitor?” Cleselda hissed out.He tried shapeshifting back into humans but couldn't, just like all those centuries ago when he was trapped in a mouse body and couldn't shapeshift back.“This is my home you stupid traitor and when I'm home, all your abilities are useless!” Cleselda yelled while picking up his tiny mouse body. “This can not be happening!” Lotus yelled in frustration, he tried whirling fire but only smoke came out, he tried again but nothing, “What the hell??” Marcus also got up and tried whirling water but to no avail. “She has put a curse on us!” he

    Lotus and Marcus found themselves falling into an endless pit, they were very sure they were going to plunge to death. They kept falling and falling for what seemed like an hour but then to their surprise landed on the ground harmless.“What the hell?” Lotus stated as he got to his feet.“What just happened?” his brother repliedThey both looked up and to their surprise, it was not that far up. “I really thought I was going to die,” Marcus stated while looking around and noticed a very big ancient-looking box.He moved towards it but his leg stepped into something“You disgusting pig!” Get your ugly feet off of me,” Clarris yelled.“Ooh sorry, I did not see you,” Marcus replied to which Clarris only rolled her eyes.Lotus ran to Clarris and lifted her up, “Ooh you adorable head, you actually cried! I'm now starting to like you but just on one percent,” he stated.Clarris gathered all the saliva in her mouth and spit on him. Lotus only closed his eyes and tried his best not to lose hi

    “Of course, the body is supposed to be alive,” Marcus stated as he moved away“What do we do?” Lotus asked.“Put the head back, I assume,” Marcus replied and ordered his brother to stay guard of Clarris's body while he turned back to where he had left Clarris. He walked back but noticed there was no sign of Clarris, he called out her name but there was silence. “Shit!” he yelled and ran to his brother. “She is gone!”“What? Where?” Lotus asked.“She is not where I left her!”Lotus laughed out, “come on where would she probably go without legs, she is probably hiding somewhere,” he stated. “Grab this other part of her, we look for the useless head,” he added.“You grab her, why should I be the one,” Marcus replied.“Because you are the eldest.”“Seriously you are going to use the age thing on me!” Marcus replied.“Okay let's grab her together,” Lotus suggested and they both agreed and went for the arms but both got hard kicks. “What?” Lotus yelled and tried to grab her again but Marc

    Marcus ran over to his brother and checked whether he was breathing or not. He turned him over and breathed a sigh of relief, there was a heartbeat.“Lotus Lotus Lotus Lotus,” he called out “please brother wake up,” He was so worried about his brother that he forgot about Clarris. Behind him, Clarris was busy cutting the ropes off her arms with her teeth. He was not aware that she rolled over to the body and began chewing on the ropes as he was busy trying to resuscitate his brother.After minutes of chewing the ropes snapped and she smiled. The body quickly picked her up and reattached itself. She wasn't sure if it was going to work but to her surprise, a phenomenal force of energy swept through the field which was followed by lightning causing all the flowers to dry up.Marcus looked down and knew that he messed up, Clarris was back. Her snake-like hair hissed behind him and he could feel the death hovering above him. “So where did we end off?” Clarris hissed “oooh the curse, your

But to their surprise, she slowly got up.Clarris moved over to the sleeping Pixiu and just stared at it. She was blank, she planned to decapitate it just like it did to her but when she saw the magnificent creature sleeping so peacefully she became blank. She was aware that the brothers were watching her but she did not mind. She knew how to wake it up, but she was afraid of what she might become.“What the hell is wrong with you!” the Princess shouted at her, forcing her to snap out of her blankness. The Princess was hit so badly that she did not realize that Clarris was a full body. The brothers only stared, “Elsa shhh keep quiet,” Marcus tried to warn her.“Do not tell me to shut up! How dare she, you all have been gone for like forever, while I remained here alone and babysat!” she shouted out on top of her voice. The Brothers could see that she lost it, she was covered in

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.

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 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.

    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
