8: Having Doubts
Nick was totally scared and decided to summon Edrek back into his body. Immediately he touched the pearl, the glass-like board fell, landing horizontally, which made it crack and shatter around the room in million peices.
Nick's parents came rushing up hearing the sound in their sleep. Like before, the debris vanished, leaving no trace of something supernatural.Nick quickly grabbed the pearl, searching for an empty pocket on his plaid pants, to hide and also secure the pearl from his parents."Nick, what made that noise? Did anything break? Did you hurt yourself? Did you destroy anything? In fact, why are you awake at this hour?! " Nick's mom asked him a lot of questions at the same time, panting out of fear. "Um, mom, I heard the sound too. It's not from here. I think it came from the neighbors next-door. " Nick lied. "Oh My God! I almost had a heart attack. I thought something happened to you, " Nick's dad let out a sigh of relief before continuing, "BRelated chapters
Unknown 9: A Time Will Come
Nick stood there confused, scared and devastated. He was wondering what was before him. 'Where are my parents? My sister? Where are they?!' He asked many rhetorical questions at the same time in his mind. 'Just think. Think! Think! Why was I chosen? 'Nick pressurized his mind and unknowingly squinted his eyes as a little bit of clue irked up in his mind. Nick could faintly remember someone; a woman. He could remember her telling him something about a mighty power. 'Oh, yeah! I can remember now! '***************Nick yawned, feeling very sleepy with the very lengthy bedtime story his mom just read for him. Nick could hear his mom's phone ringing continuously downstairs. "Sorry son, but I need to get that. It could be your father calling." Nick's mother apologised, running out of the room and down the stairs. "Ok
Unknown 10: Broken
*Now*"Yes! That's why I was chosen. To get to use my powers to save the world!" Nick whisper-shouted before opening his eyes to see a portal right before him. In the portal, he saw his parents and his sister tied up beside a pool of blood just like in his dream. Maybe his third power might be to see what will happen in the future. Nick was totally sad seeing his family in such a situation. How am I going to reach them? How am I going to save them? Nick asked in his mind."I will help you. Now you know about your powers, think of the word you like best. The thing you can never live without. The dearest thing to you." Edrek advised in Nick's mind."I know. My family," Nick replied out loud."Ok. Now, do as I tell you. You need a teleporting portal to teleport you to your parents. So, think of what you want whilst holding the pearl in your palm. Then swing your arms with the pearl in a circle for

You?!"Nick shouted so angrily with a very loud voice he never knew he could use.He ran over to his parents and sister and tried loosening the bonds around them but to no avail.The bonds were enchanted. It gave him a wild jerking zap of electricity which made him stumble back."You know, you could have just told me to loosen the bond." Mario said coolly, striding towards Nick as though nothing happened."How dare you?!" Nick repeated, venom laced in his voice.
Unknown 12: In Between
Nick was stuck in between the chains and the skeletal creature with no way to escape. He pulled and pulled to no avail. Oh, shit! The skeletal creature emerged, fiery eyes glowing with lust of flesh. "I need a body; I shall take you!" It said sinisterly, descending its sharp claws on Nick. Lower and lower it came until it was right on his face. It gnarled with satisfaction as it was about to dig its claws into Nick's flesh. Nick trembled, fear took away his voice to scream. Even if he screams, is there anyone in hel

He saw a glowing set of dark eyes appear, then greyish-red skin. "Lepi Flixus, dravu... Loptica tu fukoos beokona leli." The vampire said, in its unknown language. "It means: 'I'm Flixus, you see... I'm hungry for flesh right now.'" Edrek translated for Nick. With a loud wail, Nick found himself on the floor, the vampire feeding on his flesh. He screamed, as its fangs dug into his neck. The pearl, which was his only hope fell off, rolling to the feet of the Duke of Hell, who picked it up, and left. *****No! "Fancy thinking you could keep this forever,"Mario scoffed, shaking his head as he walked awa

Nick asked him."Darn, ask me that again," Mario replied without interest.Nick was angry and stamped on Mario, but to his surprise, his feet went through Mario's body and he felt a cold hand on his neck strangling him.Mario disappeared from the floor and as Nick turned back, he noticed that it was Mario strangling him."Now, let me reverse the question: 'Are you ready? '" Mario spoke, his deep voice sending a buzz over Nick.Shit! Reversion of fate again. "Let go of me!" Nick shouted as Mario's grip tightened."You wanted war, so it has started." Mario said, chuckling.
Unknown 15: Mid-Air
When you know you are in danger but still know you can stop it, but you have a feeling you might fail, you feel weary and defeated. Nick felt that but knew there is no turning back. As he came out of the portal with his mom and sister, he found those panthers surrounding him again, but this time, they were about fifty of them. "Run!" He shouted to his mother and sister, "Run! I will protect you!""Bye, Nick! Stay strong!" His mother said, ushering Chloe through a crooked passageway. "Bye, Nick!" Chloe whispered admist sobs. "Don't worry, sis, I shall figh
Unknown 16: Near Miss
Nick felt determined as the wind whistled into his ears.He was at maximum speed, recovering the pearl from his pant's pocket, he held it high, shouting with a thunderous voice— "My Family!"The pearl turned into a golden-blue spear, which sparked with energy of white magic.He stabbed some demons with the spear, giving them some kicks he learned in karaté class.The spear was so powerful that immediately it touched a demon, the demon sizzled in smoke and dust.A demon ran, carrying a sword, he looked like the second in command, because he was the largest among the group."Do you think you fight demons with human tactics?
