Chapter Eighteen
Elaina didn’t know exactly how to get back to the Northern temple, but she drove letting her instincts tell her where to go.
On and on she drove taking no notice to anything passing by her. Night turned into day and then day turned back into night.
Adrenaline pumping she continued to push forward. The only thing keeping her going was her need to make sure that there was still time to save everyone that meant the most to her.
Only stopping long enough to fill up on gas she arrived in familiar territory early on the second day. She pushed her car for all it was worth urging it to go faster even knowing that it couldn’t.
Finally she reached her destination, skidding to a stop she took in the scene before her. No longer stood the temple of the white, instead flames roared towards the sky.
People ran in horror trying their best to alert anyone who didn’t already know.

The death toll from Rathial’s attack was great claiming the lives of over two hundred warriors and all the monks including Brother Benjamin who had been ambushed by a Serpent beast while trying to hide. Most of the older warriors spent the next day building pillars to burn the bodies of the warriors that hadn’t been claimed by the fire. It was a tedious task piling up the kindling taking up most of the day.They worked fast to ensure that the pillars would be set ablaze at sunset, a proper warrior send off. Whoever wasn’t busy cleaning bodies and building pillars searched slowly through the remains of the sanctuary trying to see if they could find anything remaining of their possessions.Elaina sat alone underneath a tree watching as people moved about. Charise sat close beside her clutching her hand.“It’s almost like watching a movie isn’t it?” Charise asked quietly now her gaze

Oliver sent word to the Brothers from the West and South the next morning hoping it would get to all of them in time. He explained to all about the attack and Rathial’s warning. After sending off his letters he made plans to visit the elders personally.Samantha hadn’t been happy about the idea wanting her family to stay together through this, but in the end rationale won out over emotion. Elaina watched numbly as they had a teary good bye, Samantha standing in the road for a long time watching as Oliver drove off.Plans had been made to stay underground in a secret facility built specifically for emergencies. Brother Benjamin had managed to tell Samantha where to find it before his death.Digging around in the rubble left over from the fire they were able to find the secret hatch. Musty air greeted them as they descended down stairs so old they felt like they could collapse at any minute. T

Elaina stood in the middle of a square, all the buildings around her burned fiercely. Above burlack beasts in troves let out heart wrenching cries. People ran screaming as the beasts dove towards them. Too shocked to move Elaina watched as the beasts ripped at the innocents. A scream threatened to leave her throat, but it would not come. Up ahead she could see a wall of shadow, slowly making its way towards her.Drawing her sword she readied herself for the attack. The wall moved slowly taking its time to torture her. More flames blazed around her lighting the faces of the duio warriors that were coming. All their faces seemed to be grey and slowly decaying, some having holes in their cheeks and jaws, bone showing through. Their mouths hung open revealing rotted teeth. Their eyes stared blankly ahead, glazed over and unseeing.Bile rose in Elaina’s throat a

Elaina spent most of the day in her room, mainly because there was nothing else to do. Another part of it being she was trying to avoid Chase. After she finished her meal with Charise and Samantha she hurried away without explanation. As she sat alone she continued to try to sort through exactly what she would say to Chase when the time came. She liked him more than she wanted to admit to herself and knew that it would hurt to tell him that she couldn’t be with him in the way he was wanting. She knew he would try to fight it and didn’t know if she was strong enough to not let him convince her. Charise had stopped by only once to ask if she wanted to practice hand to hand in the small dojo of their hideout, but Elaina had declined saying that she wasn’t feeling well. Charise hadn’t pushed it, which was really nice of her and left shortly after.Along with the Chase situation she w

“Welcome back little warrior.” Rathial’s voice echoed in Elaina’s head. “I told you, you would soon be with your parents.” Elaina looked around her at the pillars of fire, rocks chipping and falling into motes of burning hot lava. Stilamites hung from the stone ceiling above her. Little black creatures scuttled over her feet. She tried to move away from them, but her body wouldn’t cooperate. “Oh that’s so cute, you’re still trying to fight it.” Rathial laughed. “Don’t you know where you are?” He waved an arm out as smoke billowed up from behind him. Large red eyes formed and focused on Elaina, they blinked once and then were gone. Shuffling sounded behind her as cold hands clasped her arms. A yelp escaped her lips involuntarily. “Don’t worry, they won’t hurt you.” Rathial said idly crossing his arms. “Unless I command them to anyway. I didn’t bring you here to kill you.” His eyes flashe

Elaina had been assigned bedrest for a week after Samantha came and evaluated her. By the second day she was ready to get up and move, but Charise decided to stick around and stand guard. Elaina had told her about trying to tell Chase that she didn’t want anything romantic from him, but ended up saying she loved him instead. Charise of course had been thrilled by the outcome, saying that she had hoped she would come to her senses. Still reeling from the whole ordeal Elaina hadn’t bothered trying to argue about it. By the third day the elders had arrived and had insisted on speaking with Elaina immediately. After a thorough examination from Samantha she got the ok to get out of bed, but only long enough to meet with them and then had to go back to relaxing. Elaina was all nerves as she slowly got cleaned up and dressed, terrified about what the elders would say to her once she recounted everything that had happene

“They can’t be serious!” Charise yelled in outrage. Elaina had sat quietly listening to her rage on about the elders plan for retrieving the devil’s ceptor. Of course Charise wouldn’t want Elaina to take them to it, going out into the open was pretty much like handing yourself over to the enemy. “What can they be thinking doing that? What if Rathial follows them and then attacks?” Elaina didn’t bother responding, instead she waited until Charise was sure to have everything out of her system. “I won’t let them, they are not taking you anywhere.” Elaina played with the edge of the blanket she was wrapped up in. “I don’t really think you can stop them.” She pointed out now not bothering to look up at her friend. “I mean, they’re the highest power in the brotherhood, they kind of call the shots.” Charise turned her eyes flashing with anger. She stomped towards the edge of Elaina’s bed.

Elaina dodged the first burlack beast attack landing painfully on her side.Cursing herself for not taking her friends warnings more seriously she scrambled off the ground and prepared herself for the next attack. Two burlack beasts stood on either side of her. She used her periphery vision to watch both waiting for their next move.In front of her Rathial made his way towars Elder Lionel, who had managed to draw a sword out of thin air, odd. The burlack beast to her left moved drawing all her attention. With a quick flick of her wrist she threw her dagger. It planted itself square in the beasts chest blood gushing out quickly as the creature crumpled to the ground. The beast to her left moved to charge beak open a shriek of rage escaping from it. Elaina turned fast sweeping her sickle across the beasts face, managing to take out one of its eyes. It reared back for a moment before lunging f
