UNDER THE MASK - EPISODE 42

★★★★★

Elaina vanished too and appeared in the demons coven after some minutes, landing on her feet heavily

“Oh, the protector” Al Ana said and in her voice, Elaina felt mockery

” Where’s king Min?” She demanded, breathing heavily

“Oh, the weak king?” Amoura said, appearing on her throne

“He’s only like that cos he’s not with his queen, where is he!” She demanded again

” Oh, stop being cranky ok?, He’s fine, with me” Amoura said

” Bring him out to me, now!” Elaina said seriously

“What if I say no” Amoura grinned loudly

“Then you’ll have a bloodbath” Elaina replied seriously

“You mean you’ll have a bloodbath?, Bloodbaths aren’t new to me” Amoura said, standing up

Elaina smiled and leapt to the air, gathering green and blue rays with her palms which she threw to Amoura

Amoura vanished from her chair and the rays hit the chair instead, it broke to pieces

She landed in the air behind Elaina and Elaina faced her

“You can’t escape death for breaking my chair” Amoura said

“I meant to break your existence you rotten thing!” Elaina said and rubbed her palm together, releasing blue flames from it which she threw at Amoura again

Amoura ducked in the air and the flames landed on the ground, it broke the ground and made it crack in three places

“You’re really not joking huh?” Amoura said, hardening her expression

” No one jokes with a devil” Elaina spat

Amoura ordered Al Ana, Cruella and serpentine with just a finger and they leapt to the air with her

Then combined powers with her and sent the waves to Elaina who bent over to avoid it , it eluded her and hit the wall, making it break

“You seem good but that isn’t a bother” Amoura said and screamed, calling all the evil forces of the air

They came together to form black flames which she blew to Elaina bit Elaina caught it and blew it back, it hit Al Ana’s face and Al Ana fell from the air

“The king, bring him out!!” Elaina shouted, making the whole place shake

” You aren’t in any place to do this and how dare you hurt one of my subordinates!” Amoura yelled, black flames emitting from her mouth as she spoke

“I’m not here to talk to you!, Bring out the king, now!” Elaina yelled

Amoura pointed her palm forward and the staff of demons coven appeared on it

She smiled immediately it appeared and looked at Elaina

“It’s your deathday today!” She spat and threw it

It started advancing towards Elaina and no matter how she tries to wave it away, it won’t budge, it kept coming and it seems like something is holding her down

An hand suddenly took her away from the spot and the staff entered the rock, it made it split Into pieces and thst part started going down by itself

Elaina landed on the ground with Ursula and started breathing heavily

“Oh it’s the sorceress, can’t believe you’re still alive” Amoura mocked

” This isn’t over yet, the last laugh can’t belong to you, believe me” Ursula said and vanished with Elaina

” Father will arrive tomorrow, unfailingly” Amoura said, grabbing the staff again

” Al Ana got hit, she didn’t survive it” Serpentine said

“Prepare an ice coffin for her, place her in one of the tombs” Amoura said

” Yes Princess” serpentine bowed and left

” Bring out the king” Amoura said and Cruella bowed before vanishing to go for him

She appeared some minutes later with Min who’s still asleep

“So it’s really true that a supernatural king will be weak without his queen, good job Rainbow and Mika, locking her up is really the best” Amoura smiled and bent over to Min

” He’s so handsome” she smiled, touching his face

” Your majesty, are you obsessed with him?” Cruella asked

” Yes, since I saw him ” Amoura smiled

“What do you plan on doing?” Cruella asked

“I’ll extract his memory into the Black cauldron, he’ll forget everything about the supernatural beings and his queen, I’ll make him mine and I’ll use him against them” Amoura smiled

” Extracting his memory should be done when he’s still sleeping like this, it would be hard when he wakes” Serpentine said, coming out of the tomb

” Bring me the black cauldron” Amoura said, kissing Min on the forehead

“What do we do?, His majesty is with them, and her majesty is nowhere to be found, the demons will kill us like ants when they come ” Eden said fearfully

” It’ll be disastrous, we’ll all die” Venus said

” We won’t, we’ll just suffer a lot of casualties” Lett replied

“Shouldn’t we attack them?” Damon said

“No we can’t” Asher said

” Why?” Mercury asked

” They have fighting weapons you don’t know about in their coven while the only weapon we have is her majesty and his majesty, but they’re both nowhere to be found, I guess Min will be used against us” Asher said

” What!” Eden said

” Yes, that’s the main reason he was taken, I think this cruel fate is becoming glaring and glaring” Lett said

” So this is it, it’s bad, we are so weak right now and have nothing to rely on, why is this happening” Venus said

“It’s happening because it’s how fate wants it to happen” Ursula spoke, leaving now place Immediately

Eden walked past Elaina as they walked back to their various rooms without talking

“Hey, no disturbance today?” She asked

“I just feel like I’ve done enough, I’m sad, everything is coming to an end soon and I hope I don’t die” Eden said

” You’re scared of death?” Elaina said

” Yes, I’m sorry I’m thinking like that but it’s just…what I feel, I don’t want to die” Eden replied

” Of course you won’t die, you have a great future with your fated bride” Elaina smiled.

” Fated bride?, Who’s she?” He asked

“She’s around, you just have to be suspicious” Elaina said and left

” Around?” Eden thought

“Eden?” Venus called from behind

He looked back and saw her walking to him, she hugged her immediately she got to him and he was taken by surprise

“Venus…”

“Please stay still, I’m so scared, the war is coming, the end is near, I don’t know if I’ll die or now, I don’t want to die” she said

Though Eden is scared too but he pat her back and comforted her

“It’s ok , we won’t die” he said.

*****

Passing by the office of the dean, Mercury felt the need to see Lett again

“I couldn’t sleep last night all because of him, the end is coming soon and I know I shouldn’t be talking like this but….I can’t help it, I really need to see him again” she thought and advanced towards it

She turned the doorknob and opened the door

She peeped in and made sure no one is in before going in

She looked around the office and smiled, the last time she entered the office was three years ago when she just came to this school with Venus

“Time flies … And now the end is near, I don’t even know weather I’m gonna die during the war or weather I’m gonna live, it’s unlike me to fear but I’m scared, really really scared” she thought

She suddenly heard the door opening and quickly bent behind the table

Lett came in and sat before sighing. “I know you’re here” he said

“What!’ she said in her mind before standing up

” I’m so sorry for invading your privacy, I wasn’t thinking straight, that’s why…” She said and started going out

*Wait” Lett said, standing up, he bent over to pick something from where she was bending earlier

He walked to Mercury who kept her gaze on him and took her hand

He placed a bracelet on it and looked at her

“You dropped it” he said

“Oh…. thanks Dean” she replied and felt that same thing she felt the other time as he held her hand

“You’re scared that the end is near?” He asked

“A little” she replied

Lett smiled and let go of her hand. “Fearing death is a weakness on it’s own, avoid fear” he said

” Thanks Dean, I’ll take note” she said, not wanting to look at him once more

Her heart is busy thudding on her chest

“Be careful” he said and she bowed before leaving the office

She held her chest tightly

“It’s beating so fast” she said, closing her eyes and leaning on the door

*****

Ursula won’t stop crying immediately she got to her room, to think that the end is coming and her daughter and her king is not here is disheartening

“Am I really gonna die without introducing myself to her as her mother?” She thought in tears

Her tummy hurts but she’s enduring as she cried

Crying is one of her weaknesses, anytime she cries, it hurts in her belly

Asher entered the room and rushed to her immediately he saw her tears.

He held her face and is shocked to see much tears in her eyes

“Ursula”

“Asher I’m scared, the end is almost here, the war is coming and our king and queen are nowhere to be found, am I gonna die without getting the chance to tell Maureen how much I love her as her mum?, That’s gonna hurt in the afterlife Asher, I don’t even want to think about it” she cried

” No one is dying” Asher replied, wiping her tears

” But you know that’s not true, without them here, this academy is in danger once Dantalion comes back, he’ll kill everyone like ants” she cried

Sensing that talking to her won’t stop her tears, Asher hugged her to console her

“It’ll be ok Ursula , calm down” he said, patting her back gently.

*****.

Kaitlyn’s heart almost broke in her chest for the past two hours, she has been feeling pains in there plus the pains the demons are inflicting on her

“Is Min… touching another woman?, Is he?, My heart is bleeding, I can feel it” she thought, bleeding from the mouth as she felt that unbearable pain in her heart again

“My heart…. aarrgh!!!!, I’m dying Min why are you doing this to me!!, Stop doing that please…..I’m gonna die!!!” She screamed, shedding blood from her eyes as her heart continued burning in pains

“Min stop, Min please…stop hurting me, stop making me pass through this please!!” She screamed again, spitting out blood in heavy amounts

The last blood she spit touched the ground and made it split, calling out blue flames from the ground which entered her eyes and made it lighten up

The demons tried to come closer but they were blown away by heavy wind as she slowly started standing up.

*****

Underground cave**

Entering the cave with Rainbow and Mika, Moon smiled when she saw fear written on Athena’s face immediately she saw them

They walked to her and she shifted back

“Moon…” She said slowly

*Call my name one more time and I won’t hesitate to shoot you till death” Moon snapped

” Why….why are you guys…”

Rainbow quickly rolled up her sleeve and loosened the bandage on the wound, Athena’s eyes widened at how big it is

“Heal me” Rainbow said weakly, her face is so pale and it’s obvious she’s in pains

“Why?” Athena asked

“Do what she asked!” Mika yelled

Athena went closer to her and blew air from her mouth on her palm before trying to rub off the wound but it isn’t working

She kept trying and trying but it’s not working

“I can’t heal this” she said

“I’m dying” Rainbow said, bleeding from the side of her mouth

“Do something about her wound!” Moon yelled

“I really can’t heal it” Athena quivered

“Then die!” Moon said and used her gun technique, shooting Athens in the chest but surprisingly, the gunshot wound appeared on Moon herself

Moon spit out blood and held her bleeding chest

“Moon!” Mika screamed and ran to her, leaving Rainbow who fell on the ground immediately

Mika held Moon who kept bleeding from the shot area and the mouth

“Moon how did that happen?, You shot her, how come you got wounded instead” Mika said

Moon looked at Athena who’s still so shocked

” The second golden ice that fell from heaven on the night of rebellion twenty years ago, it’s you right?” Moon said, crying already

” Yes, I’m Star” Athena replied

” I’m the first golden ice that fell before you, why aren’t you bearing Star, why did you change your name?” Moon asked, spitting out blood again

” Damon changed my name from Star to Athena immediately he became friends with me, he said he’s comfortable with Athena than calling me Star” Athena replied, crying too

” So I’ve been hating my sister” Moon cried

“Never knew the name of the first golden ice was Moon, I never knew it’s you” Athena replied

” Anyways I’m sorry, I choose the wrong path” Moon smiled sadly

Damon entered the place to take Athena out since Min isn’t around anymore but is shocked at the scene in front of him

“Sis” Athena said, rushing to take her from Mika

“We can’t hurt each other, that’s why we’re called golden ice, you hurt your partner, you get hurt instead” Moon said, crying bitterly as her blood continued flowing down the rock

” Moon….” Athena cried

“I’m so sorry for trying to hurt you, but I guess I got my reward for hatred already, death” Moon said

” No I can heal you” Athena said and tried healing her but it’s Impossible, instead, the wound got bigger at every attempt

“You know it very well that you can’t heal it cos I caused this myself with the intention of hurting you” Moon smiled

” Don’t die… please” Athens said as Moon’s eyes started closing

” It’s fine, if I die and return to heaven, you’ll get to live an everlasting life as a human, I’m sorry for being a b*tch” Moon smiled

” Moon please…. don’t leave, not now when we’ve just known each other’s real identity” Athena cried

” I’m sorry, live well, love Damon till eternity, goodbye” Moon said

Damon watched with bulging eyes as Moon’s eyes closed and she stopped breathing

“Moon!!” Athena cried

Moon’s body transformed into a golden cold ice which dissappeared immediately

Mika fell on her knees

“No way”

“My pledged sister!!!” Athena cried.
