UNDER THE MASK - EPISODE 39

★★★★

The academy guards obeyed immediately and started dragging Athena out of the hall while she kept calling Damon’s name and when Damon stood and tried to go to her, he was obstructed by Elaina

“Let her go, I know how you feel but it’s her fate” she said

“Stop talking!, Stop talking about any darn fate!, There’s nothing like fate!, I’m sure she’s innocent” Damon said as Athena kept crying and calling out for him

“Even if she is, saying it by herself that she did it is what makes it hard, you just have to calm down, think of how to handle all these before acting rashly” Elaina said

Damon’s arms dropped as he watched Athena being taken away till she’s out of sight, he fell on one of the chairs weakly

“Athena, Athena!!!” He cried

Min was taken out by Eden and taken to his room

“We have to keep him asleep at all cost, if he wakes up and still can’t find his queen, he’ll harm” Elaina said

” Athena can’t do that” Eden said slowly

” I just know she’s not someone like that” Mercury said

” I was wondering too,, is she under a spell?” Elaina said

” That might be the case, we have two devils here so I won’t be surprised” Eden replied.

Elaina looked at sleeping Min and decided to go see the dean

She walked to the office briskly and met Ursula and Lett there with him

“She’s under a spell” Elaina said

“I know” Asher replied

“The bulge in her throat when she was speaking said it all” Ursula added

“Then, why lock her up?” Elaina asked

” Min will become a dangerous cold creature when he wakes up, he’ll want to kill her by all means cos right now, the only thing he’s concerned about is his queen and no one else” Asher said

“But he’s asleep” Elaina said

” You think it’ll be for long?” Lett said and immediately, the door opened, revealing angry Min

Elaina’s eyes widened as he came in furiously, no trace of pity in his eyes

“Where’s Lynn?” He asked fiercely

“Calm down Min” Elaina said

“Don’t tell me to calm down!” Min snapped and grabbed her shoulders, hitting her on the wall

“Where’s that brat?, The brat who made her vanish?, Did she really vanish?, Did that little girl really made her vanish?” He said, looking deep into Elaina’s eyes

” Take your hands off me, you’ll be hurting the queen wherever she is” Elaina said

Min quietly let go of her and smiled seriously

” If I get that little brat, I’ll kill her I swear, find my queen or I’ll have to burn down the whole world” he said

” Min,…”

” I don’t know how to calm down anymore so don’t bother telling me to do that” he said without smiling and left

” He’s serious” Elaina said

“So you see why locking Athena in that cave is the best cos if she’s locked in anywhere around, he’ll smell her presence” Lett said

” The cave is dangerous, she’ll freeze cos of the cold environment” Elaina said

” We’re only helping, and besides, she won’t die, nothing will happen to her, she just has to endure and she’s good at that” Asher said

” My daughter, I can still feel her existence, she never vanished, she’s still somewhere, I can feel it” Ursula said, holding her chest

*Rainbow, is this the havoc she’s destined to cause?” Asher said

*Now that she has an advocate, we can’t expect less” Lett heaved

” The Queen’s absence is dangerous, if the demon attacks, it’ll be disastrous” Elaina said

” The vicious king is here, we have you, we have the others and us, we can do it till we find the queen” Asher said

” How do we find her?, Should we visit the demons coven?” Ursula asked

“I think we’ll have to do that” Lett replied.

“this is more than enough” Al Ana smiled victoriously as Rainbow handed the blood to her

” Thanks mistress” Rainbow smiled

“You girls did the first job well, now stealing the orb is important” Cruella said

” Yes mistress” they chorused

Al Ana suddenly raised up the sleeve of Rainbow’s right arm and it revealed a wound on her arm

“Oh, I felt a little pain there the other time, never knew it’s actually a wound” she said

” The maid you possessed once went to frost forest?” Al Ana asked

” Yes, but she came back safely” Rainbow replied

Al Ana pulled back her sleeves and smiled

“Go” she ordered

“Yes mistress” Rainbow and Mika bowed before leaving

” Switch of fate?”Cruella smirked

“The said girl is supposed to die from the wound she sustained from the forest but during the possession, Rainbow got her fate switched to hers mistakenly, she was supposed to die a quick death before, but now she’ll die a slow excruciating death” Al Ana replied

” How pitiful”Cruella smiled

“Our Princess is waking today, call the gathering of the demons” Al Ana smiled, looking at the blood bottle .

” It hurts a lot and it’s bleeding” Rainbow said Immediately she got to the academy with Mika

” It’ll be gone soon, maybe it’s the side effects of the possession, did you release the spell already?” Mika asked as Rainbow tied the arm with an handkerchief from her pocket

” Yes, since she was taken away, if we successfully steal the orb, Al Ana will be so impressed, I’ll be so pleased to destroy everyone” Rainbow said

” Glad working with you” Mika smiled and they both left the corner

Moon come out of her hiding place and sighed

“So she was possessed” she sighed

A part of her felt bad for her but another part feels like it’s an opportunity to get closer to Damon

*****

It’s raining that night unexpectedly and Damon doesn’t seem to care as he walked towards the lodge of fame

Moon suddenly grabbed his arm from behind and he faced him

“Where are you going to?” She asked

“To beg the dean to let go of Athena, She’s innocent I’m sure” he replied

” No you can’t, it’s raining, you can’t enter the rain” Moon said

He took his hand from her . ” I don’t care!” He almost screamed

“You care about her so much?” Moon asked, folding her palm hurtfully

Damon touched his chest. “It hurts here anytime she’s hurt, I won’t be able to sleep and everything that’ll be in my head will be to save her even if it costs my life” he said and Moon gasped as he entered the rain and knelt in front of the hall of fame under the heavy rain

“Master Asher!, Please I beg you, release Athena!” He shouted, letting the rain drench him

” Master Lett!, Please just let her go!, She has suffered a lot and she’s innocent!, Please!” He shouted again

Moon watched from where she’s standing and held to the wall hurtfully

“He loves her more than a friend, but he’s not aware” she muttered

*****

Demons coven**

Serpentine, Cruella, Al Ana and Botis entered the princess cave with the bottle if blood and the great expectation that Amoura will wake today unfailingly

Cruella took the blood from Al Ana and they all surrounded Amoura’s ice coffin

“Start” Serpentine said

Cruella smiled and is about to pour the blood on the coffin when a loud crashing sound stopped them

Min entered the tomb, penetrating through the rocky roof

He landed down and has an arrogant smug smile on his handsome but angry face

His eyes is burning red and his veins is obvious, his nails are long and his lips is bright red like blood

“Go away you son of a dog!” Al Ana shouted

“Shut up you daughter of a b*tch!, What wish do you all have?, Say it, cos you’re all dying now!” He snarled, making his nails grow longer…
