Chapter 8

❤️❤️ Tlyer and Ariel (Part 3) ❤️❤️ "My brother's body is missing? How is that possible?" Isaac asked in bewilderment. "I don't know my Lord. I had questioned the two trustworthy guards I placed outside the late King's Chamber but none of them happens to know the whereabouts of King Reed's body." Jeffrey answered. "Send for those two guards here immediately." Issac ordered and Jeffrey went out of the room and returned in the space of two minutes with the two guards. "Greetings my Lord." Both guards said together, kneeling with one knee and bowing their heads in respect. Isaac wasted no time as he quickly walked over to meet them and placed his two hands on each of their heads, closing his eyes. He soon removed his hands on their heads and with a gesture with his head. "Go." He ordered and the two guards left. "What did you find my Lord?" Jeffrey asked. "Who could have taken his body?" "I sense a presence inside the chamber." Isaac replied. "Take me to the chamber right now, I need to know whose strong presence I felt." He added. Jeffrey turned around without any further response, leading the way to the chamber he kept Reed as Isaac followed behind him. ***** Mari was through with her enchantment disguise spell in the form of a necklace- two necklaces, white and blue colors- and called out Ariel. Coming out of the room to meet Mari. "You called me Aunty, I thought you said you don't want any disturbance?" "Yes dear, I did not want any disturbance because I was busy but I am not. I am through with the disguise spell." Mari answered smiling widely. Ariel was surprised. "So soon Aunty? I thought it may take you three days to finish making the spells, not under a few hours?" "I am faster than most witches, and stronger too, but that was before I lost someone important to me." Mari said, her smiling faded and was replaced with a frown. "So I was very quick to make the disguise spell." She added trying not to look sad as she smiled once again. "Aunty, I really wish I could help you but we both are in the middle of a deep sea trying to figure a way out." Ariel said sadly. "You already know the direction you want to take, I on the other hand, don't. But I won't give up my search, I believe our path will cross again if it is the will of the gods." Mari told Ariel. "And if your paths do meet again, what will you do to him?" Ariel asked with raised brows. "I will beat up that his sexy ass that he won't be able to sit again, and pluck out his beautiful blue eyes that attracted me to him in the first place, and then cook it up for him to eat, after which I will throw him into the middle of that sea you spoke about." "Wow, just remind me never to mess with you." "You know I won't hurt you Ariel but that does not mean you should look for my trouble because I will beat your sorry ass and put you back to your place." Ariel laughed prompting Mari to smile. "So," Giving Ariel one of the necklace, the white one. "Wear it." Taking it from her, "Thank you Aunty." Ariel said, smiling widely. As soon as she puts on the necklace around her neck, it disperse. Mari wore the second necklace and it did the same thing, leaving their necks bare. "Sorry if I may ask aunty, why did the necklace disappear?" "The necklace is still within our necks, Ariel." Mari answered and continued. "Isaac was here and heard your voice, I am sure he will try to come here again or try to spy on you, so I made you the disguise spell which will hide your scent and change a bit of your appearance. I was the one who needed the disguise spells because I have some investigation I wanted to carry out so I decided to make a disguise spell that will give me a new appearance since the supernatural are afraid of my beautiful ass." "Okay." Ariel said. "But you are still the same." "You need to say a word in your mind before it will change your appearance." Mari response. "I think something is not right, Isaac never showed at my doorsteps before, so him coming here means he is trying to find something from me." "And do you know what it might be?" "I don't know, that is what we are going to find out." Mari replied. "We? When did I become part of your plan?" "Since you accepted to wear my disguise necklace which automatically makes you my assistant spy. We will go out and look around." "Okay, when are we going out for the sightseeing aunty?" Ariel demanded. "Now, you are not doing anything, so we are going to spy on the people starting from Reed's palace. There was an emergency meeting held early this morning, we need to find out what the meeting is all around." Mari answered. "The words you will utter is 'Blue' and it will transform your looks." "Okay Aunty." "You will take the South and I will head for Reed's palace." "South? Isn't that where the Fairy kingdom and Wolfe Crimson kingdom lives?" "Exactly, you will be spying on both kingdoms." "Alright." "Okay, let's hit the road my assistant." **** Isaac followed Jeffrey until they got to a chamber, the two guards which came to meet him were seen standing outside the chamber. "Here is the chamber my Lord." Jeffrey said pointing at the door. "Okay, stay here." Isaac said and went inside and Jeffrey waited patiently. Isaac came out and started walking back to his chamber, Jeffrey hurrying up behind him. Once inside his chamber, he faces Jeffery. "I scented the presence of a god in that chamber. I guess whoever that god is, he took my brother's body." He said. "One of the gods was here, if what you said is true, then we won't be able to keep the secret of the Millennium Wolf death forever. The gods will come and announce it." Jeffrey told Isaac. ***** The Realm of The gods: Ares gently drops the dead body of Reed at Zeus feet. "I did as River asked, here is Reed's body." Ares told Zeus. "And this should be the first and last time you will send me on this kind of errand father. I do not want to act like a thief again." He added. "When you see River, repeat what you just said now." Zeus said with a smirk. Ares left his father's presence without another word. ***** Queen Latifah made it to her chamber before she began feeling the vibration of her crown. Casting a spell around the room so no one could hear her conversation, she removed the crown from her head and placed it on the floor. Sitting in India style, Queen Latifah started speaking an incantation she was familiar with. A puff of blue smoke came out of the crown transforming to Luke. "You are back so soon, did you kill Isaac?" Queen Latifah asked. "I didn't succeed Mistress, he now possesses the chaos fire which subdue all kinds of fire including mine. So I had to go before he destroys me." Luke answered with a slight bow. "Isaac seems to be more powerful than before. For him to possess the chaos fire means he was well cooked before resurfacing once again. Now I know he has a chaos fire, I am one step ahead of those who want the throne." Queen Latifah said. "I will find a spell that will render his chaos fire useless and will challenge him." She added. "He has a lot of powers, no doubt, but do you think one can render chaos fire useless Mistress? I don't think you will win if you challeng-" The rest of the words died as Queen Latifah's eyes suddenly became dark and Luke was forced to go down on his knees, holding the chain around his neck. Blue liquid that looks like blood started coming out of Luke's mouth, struggling in pain. "Who are you to tell me I can't defeat Isaac? If I, Latifah, can be able to imprison you and command you to do things for me, who then is Isaac I can't defeat?" Queen Latifah said in fury as she stood up and turned her back to Luke who was still struggling in pain. "I captured you and I have been able to hide you this long, I am not a lesser Witch Luke. I am the Queen of all witches, Isaac should be the one afraid of me, not the other way round." She added. "I am pissed and angry, and because of the love I still have for you, I will let go of your words but do not repeat such words next time." Her eyes changed back to her normal brown eyes and Luke stopped struggling. "You deceived me Latifah even when you fully know I don't love you, one day I will be free from your bondage and I will enjoy tearing you treachery body from limp to limp, mark my wor-" Luke didn't get to complete his statement when Queen Latifah clapped her hands and he disappeared, the blue smoke entering the crown and disperse into nothing. Queen Latifah smiled and turned around to pick up her crown and placed it on her head. "Until then Luke."
