THE DEMON AND I

CHAPTER 41: Sacrifice

"He is indeed a king" he muttered.

Someone appeared behind him. Without looking back, he knew who it was.

"You've done well Rex" Cassiel said.

"Thank you my Lord" Rex replied.

Rex was actually the one who gave Lilith the clue on where Evanora is.

His gaze fell on the battle below him and fear creep into his soul. Of course Dracula aura affected him.

"My Lord" he called.

"What" Cassiel asked blankly.

"What if She doesn't survive?" Rex asked. The thought of Dracula losing his mind scares him.

"She would" Cassiel said.

"Naamah said there is a slim chance of her surviving" Rex said.

"As far there is a slight chance then I'm sure she will survive. Martha is stronger than how you think" Cassiel said and they both watch how Dracula was busy dealing with Evanora in a viscous way.

Scott got to where he had left other and the first thing he saw shocked him.

Lizzy was laying dead on the floor and his mother was still unconscious.

"Liz" he called softly as he walked towards her, her skin was paled and she was lean.

Lilith explained what happened and he shook his head.

"No" tears fell out uncontrollably from his eyes. The moment he and Lizzy spent together came in and he groaned in frustration.

"Why does she have to die like this?" Scott pulled his hair crying hard on the floor. He grabbed Lizzy hand caressed it.

Lilith who was behind him also cried, She lost her sister. Though, they only knew each other for just a small amount of time.

Lizzy is the most carefree person she have ever met. She was really good in lighten ones mood.

"Liz" she whispered and bent crying hard.

Aaron and Mara appeared behind them. Seeing the scene, they turned sighed.

"King Jacob lost another daughter" Mara muttered.

Philip saw them and carried Tatiana to Aaron. "She needs a medical attention" he said quickly.

Aaron raised a brow at him.

"I'll transport you to where others is" Mara quickly said pushing Aaron slightly out of the way.

"Scott.. be careful, I'll take of your mother" He said and Mara vanished with them.

Aaron took one last glance at them before vanishing.

Lilith and Scott buried Lizzy beside the tree where she had died.

"I'll miss her" Scott said. He stood and grabbed Lilith by her hand. "Let's go check on Diana"

...

Naamah sighed loudly, her brow curved down into a deep frown. She had been trying to revive Diana for some time now and it wasn't working.

"What's going on?" Marisa asked. Her eyes was still wet with tears.

Scott came into the place with Lilith, their hands were intertwined and her leg was healed already.

"Blue witch" he called running close to her. His lips trembles seeing there was still no improvement on her.

Loosing her scares the shit out of him.

The memories of how he met her came in; He was attacked by some goons on he Street when he was seven just because he refused to give them money. After trying to kill him someone appeared. It was a little girl.

"Stop!" Her tiny voice made the goons laugh hard. They returned back on beating the hell out of him.

Little Diana ran towards one of them and bit him hard on the palm.

"Little bitch!!" The goon spat slapping her hard on the cheek. She whimpered and fell on the floor.

"Shit! I'm gonna teach you some respect!" He yelled dragging her hair up, but just then a scream came out of her tiny lips, her body emitted blue light and threw them away.

Little Scott eyes was half opened as he watch her. Just after her scream, she fainted on the floor.

Scott forced himself up and went to carry her in his arm. They got help and was treated.

Ever since then, he named her Blue witch. He thought she doesn't remember anything but little did he know that Diana did.

...

"How's she?" Scott asked Naamah who was staring into space.

"She's dying" Naamah replied staring at Diana who was being placed on a huge stone. Diana heartbeat was slowing every seconds and her breath was getting weaker.

"No.. she can't die! Who is going to kill that crazy woman out there?" Scott shook his head.

"Why?.. I can't lose her please do something" Marisa said.

"Her witch side is weak.." she added and Old Racheal began to think of something.

"I'll give her my power" She suddenly said and everyone looked at her.

"You'll die if that happens" Naamah said.

"I know.. I've lived my life the way I want, I want her to live her life too" Old Racheal said.

"Mom" Marisa called gently. She blinked once and another fresh tears came out her eyes.

"It's okay dear.. Take care of Diana for me" Old Racheal said hugging her.

Naamah made way for Old Racheal, she placed her hand on Diana's chest. "End this war my Love" she smiled sweetly before laying down beside Diana and close her eyes.

Naamah body glows as light emitted from her and went towards the two bodies on the rock. She chant some words at them and began to transfer Old Racheal Powers to Diana.

"Mom" Racheal muttered and Scott drew her to his chest.

"It's okay" he said Patting her hair.

The light shone brighter and Old Racheal screamed out for a while.

Marisa buried her face on Scott's chest and sobbed unable to take the scene.

Old Racheal smiled a little before closing her eyes for her soul to leave.

...

In dark empty realm Diana could be seen floating. The place was without form and void, she had her eyes closed as silence was all that was around her.

"Diana"

A soft voice called but her eyes were still close.

"Diana"

The voice called again.

"Diana"

Just at the third call, Diana slowly opened her eyes. She blinked severally just to clear her blurry sight.

The first thing she saw was an old pair of shoes, she traced her gaze up, it was a female wearing an old blue cloth. Her eye widened when it got to her face.

It was a girl with her own image. Her body shape, nose, lips, were just exactly the same as hers. The only difference was her just her blue eyes and completely blue hair.

She was glowing like a sun and she was damn beautiful.

Diana lips parted in awe and she finally knew who was before her. She then whisper her name.

"MARTHA"
