Legacies: A legacy of a Fallen.

Ch.11 Let's go hunting

It has been a few days since the road trip and no new monster has come to take the urn. But I have given up the urn to Ric and I don't know the location of the Urn.

Some new development has also happened I am now having more terrifying nightmares than before. And I don't know why it is happening.

It was 2:00 in the morning. Someone came knocking on my door I got up and went to get the door and it was Hayley she then started to kiss me and I pushed her back and she said "What happened baby boy? You don't love me anymore?" I then saw My mother melted face on her body and she was moving towards me and I woke up in a cold sweat.

Then I heard a knock on the door and went to get it and it was Josie she asked "Are you okay? You look like you've seen a ghost."

I said "Nothing just had a bad dream. What are you doing here this late?"

She said "Dad... I mean Prof. Saltzman has called for a meeting?"

I sighed and asked, "What happened now?"

She said "Probably another monster?"

I said, "Let's go then." At this point, everyone knew that I will be in shorts and a vest it was like my nightdress.

We reached the hall and Ric said "A few days ago I have come into the possession of another Malivore Artifact. It was my hope to find a method to contain it."

Josie asked, "Do you remember something from the trip?"

I said, "It's better if I don't talk about that?"

She asked, "Why?"

I said, "Well, as you know I won't tell any lies, and the trip requires me to be silent so I am trying my best to keep it on the down-low."

She said, "Why what do you remember?"

I said "Oh, please don't ask me. I beg of you."

She sighed and said, "Fine don't tell me I will find out somehow."

I said, "That would be preferable."

She asked, "Can I ask you something?" I nodded and she said, "I have never seen you so much out of sorts what is happening to you?"

I said, "I am having nightmares about Hayley and my mother." She looked at me confused and I said "Hayley was the one who betrayed me." She nodded and I continued "My hypothesis is that because I am suppressing my emotions they are now manifesting them as nightmares of such a high degree. So the only solution is to confront my fear."

She said, "Is there anything I could do?"

I said "No, I don't think so. This is my battle and I must fight this one alone."

Kaleb then said, "Why don't we just evacuate the damn artefact?"

Ric said "Because we are more well equipped to deal with the monster than any other"

"Once we know what we are dealing with and the problem is contained, then we can reassess what to do with the artefact. If any of you like to evacuate, please talk to Dorian or Emma. However, exam week will continue as scheduled,

Wherever you are. I know, I'm sorry. I can't exactly call the state accreditation board and we are cancelling the exam because of monsters. We'll get through this I promise. Try and get some rest, okay. Good night."

Josie asked me "Are you evacuating?"

I said "Not exactly I will be taking my holiday and finishing up on my business. Are you evacuating?"

Josie said "Yes, Dad wants me and Lizzie to go, so not much of a choice there."

I said, "Well, I hope that you are safe wherever you are but I need to talk to Prof. Saltzman."
