Nick felt a combination of different feelings building up inside him; anger, hatred, helplessness, sadness, and a whole lot more.He was completely pulled out of the chair with the fact that Mario could go this far by hurting his family -- but what would you expect from a demon; a Duke of Hell?He looked at Mario with hatred burning in his eyes and his blood boiling inside of him."How. Dare. 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.

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

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

"No!" Nick shouted as Edrek gave up. "No? The deed has already been done, at least, you've got no friend running to get you," Edrek spoke, sarcastically. "You are a jerk! I hate you!" Nick screamed as he lowered down to the ground, tears rolling down his cheeks. "Who even thinks of loving a demon, human?" Mario asked, scoffing. "You bastard! I'll make sure I destroy you!""But you can't do that without powers." Mario deadpanned. "I have got the pearl..." Nick faltered. "Oh, no! You just gave me the pearl if you haven't noticed..." Mario said in a sing-song manner. "No way!" Nick roared. "Hmm... I see." Mario laughed, turning the spear back into the pearl.Mario turned back to the other demons and angels in battle, "There is no need for war again, because I already have what I need, but, if you guys wanna have some fun... You can continue." Mario said, turning on his

"Now that everyone is safe, we need to go shatter Mario's plan, while the others look for Mr. Phillips." Erik announced when he had brought all angels down."Master, I can assign the others to look for him, while the rest of the army follows you," Mick, who was a warrior, spoke."Yes, do that while we go. There is no time to waste," Erik paused, counting out twenty angels, "You should take them with you, while I need eleven hundred warriors to plan a surprise attack.""That's very thoughtful. I would do as you say, Master," Mick said, taking a bow and signalling for the others to follow as they invoked on their journey."Nick, your father would be safe. Let's go, troop!" Erik shouted to the others as they all marched back to the battle ground.When they reached the battle ground, they all stopped to listen the Erik's orders."Twenty of you should stay behind to stay with N
