Bounty Hunter Bash Heart Lock Arc Part Three

 The Blood Priest


After one night they were on their way. They had not a moment to lose. They journeyed for the whole day. Whenever they needed to eat they made a sandwich and ate it as they walked. It soon became evening and the night was becoming colder and colder. The bringing as autumn was upon them. They came to a new building that was made by strange white rocks. The door had a large arch at the front and it had a domed roof. At the top of the door was what looked like a new goddess made of rubies and her hands were cupped and from them fell blood!

"Clohida, goddess of blood." Came a voice behind them. They both jumped slightly as they turned around. Behind then was a man dressed in a crimson robe. He had long black hair and eyes. His face was as white as chalk with an alluring dark beauty that would make anyones' heart skip a beat.

"She had been known to protect people from vampires, werewolves and all manner of dark creatures." He said, revealing his snow white teeth. "Speaking of which, this place is riddled with those so come in!" 

"But you do not know who we even are. We could be worse than either one of those!" Chashathrophogh pointed out.

He shrugged.

"Then I well take that risk!" He sang, as he urged them in.

Inside there were rows and rows of benches painted red and in front of them was a large statue of Clohida standing in a pond of blood.

"That looks charming!" Commented Chashathrophogh.

"Yes, I forgot, sorry. She's not well known here."

Chashathrophogh looked at him suspiciously, however he said nothing.

"Then make a note to warn people next time. After all,  if we were normal people we would be screaming out head off." He said.

He laughed.

"Hey!"

"What? You should know better than to expect an apology."

She just glared at him but then looked aside.

"Alright we'll stay but only one night, any longer and we'll-"

"Miss our boat."

"Where to?"

"The Desert Planes. I heard that she always wanted to go."

"I said the Sand Planes. Desert Planes are far too dangerous. Or so I've heard."

I don't know why he's lying,  but there has to be a good reason.

"So,  is there anywhere we need to sign?"

"No, but you and your uncle are welcome here as long as you need to stay here." He said. "Now,  you must be hungry I expect."

Suddenly, as if on cue, their stomachs tagged to rumble. Yet,  they knew that this was not out of hunger. They also knew better than to stay,  yet their curiosity caused them to stay there.

"Sure!" They lied.

He smiled and left. Chashathrophogh turned to her.

"Go and check the religious text of Clohida. I will be giving the blood priest a hand in the kitchen."

She nodded. She looked around and in a small room she spotted a book. It was made of red leather and the pages with golden edges. It was on a red table with a maroon tablecloth.


The Book Of Clohida


Bingo.

She picked the book up. She looked around to see if there was anyone around. Seeing that there was not, which was strange. From the moment that they had arrived, apart from the blood priest,  there was none there. However, this gave her the opportunity that she needed. She knew that her uncle could take care of himself. So she opened the book.


Clohida always demands two things before you

follow her. If you do,  then you will be able to 

know her secrets and all things patterning to

the blood and blood magic.


Now the things that you need to do are,  get a

pool of blood and sacrifice two royals by 

drowning them both in the pool.


With that she closed the book. She now wondered if her uncle was really alright. Also this meant that he knew who they were the moment he saw them. She closed the book and then ran to the kitchens. She saw her uncle and it occurred to her that she needed a reason to pull him away without alerting the blood priest.

"Urm.. Uncle,  could you help me with something?"

"No."

"But I really need your help. There's this spell that I'm really stuck on."

He rolled his eyes.

"Fine! I'm coming!"

He walked over to her.

"This better not be the truth. If so, then I will be disappointed!" He said under his breath.

"No,  I found something."

"Go on."

"The conditions of following Clohida. And that is to make a blood pool and to drown two royals in it." 

He glanced at the pool.

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah! We'll be fine!"

"Good!" He said as he gave them a goblet of a hot drink. "It's a tea from Clohidas' native nation."

They looked at each other and pretended to drink it, yet somehow, either they misjudged or something,  but for some reason they ended up taking a proper sip. He then smiled and took another goblet and took a sip and then poured it into the pool of blood. 

"You catch on surprisingly fast! Most do not figure it out until they're in the pool." He said. "However I guess you're not normal royals, are you?"

He walked over to Chashathrophogh and placed a finger on his jawline.

"Tell me, do you love her like a niece?"

"No. Why should I?"

"Not even a little?"

"No."

He smirked.

"Well,  my goddess Clohida will reveal if that is true." He said as he walked over to the pool.

They would have tried to move to take him down,  but there seemed to be something stopping them. Then he raised his hands and they were pulled over to him like a magnet. He then looked into their eyes and smiled. He then started to chuckle and then let out an ice cold laugh.

"Excellent!"

Both tried to well themselves away from him.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Only royals that love each other, regardless of what type, would be pulled to my hands."

"What? There's no love between us!" Bash exclaimed.

"Ignore it and trust me!" Chashathrophogh croaked as he willed a blade in his belt into his heart. He then fell down. Their feet landed.

Bash was about to check to see if he was dead but then Chashathrophogh hit her. She looked at him and frowned and she hit him back. He then smirked as he outstretched his hand and then a fire rose up.

"What are you doing?" She asked.

"There is magic here that needs to go. Fire is a purifier so you must burn these places." He said.

She nodded as she helped. Soon the temple was gone.

Scar Parents Fight Part Three

  Hunter’s Defence  Scar opened her eyes. She then walked down the stairs. She slowly took out her homework, just to take her mind off the day before she started doing it. She started with her maths to fode her mind to focus. She then moved onto literacy. After she had done both her mind felt sharp and clear of all of the upset. She looked up, it was half past seven. She then took a slice of bread. She then put it in the toaster and pulled out a tin of beans. Half of them had already been eaten the day feforeshe then put it in the bowl and then put it in the microwave for a minute. As she waited she picked up a newspaper. Three women arrested. They claimed to be witches yet none have any drugs in their system. They were arrested  for killing four children. When asked why they claimed  it was to obtain power. So they've been arrested. Good! She heard the beeping and soon put the beans on the plate then took the toast out and soon took out a fork. After ripping the toast in half she

The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Three

  The Boa Army Loc was working hard in the field. It was getting to evening time. She had found that she liked working there as a farmer. There was just something so satisfying in doing hard work and made the food taste better and she slept better too. She could see herself doing this for the rest of her life however long that would be, yet she knew that she could not. Regardless of how much she liked the village and the people there. She had noticed that the people there looked almost like the people in her world just without any pupils and they were weaker too. She also noticed that despite this, they were all hard working and nothing was eaten until they had done their work. During this time she had completely recovered her whole energy and strength from all of the battles that she had on that day. She had also been able to gather her thoughts and psychology recovered and was able to have her time of mourning her losses from her rebellion. Yet she found that this might have been due

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Six

 The Purple Monster  “Why?” “Open the book and put all of the other Purple Artefacts into the page that it fits.” Doormaze nodded as she opened the book. On the first page as a hole where she put the Purple Purl in. The page glowed and for a moment. When the glowing died down the purl was in the page, almost like a picture. She then turned another page. There was another hole with a flower hole in. She then placed the Purple Flower in. It glowed and soon the flower was in the book. She turned the page, where she placed the Purple Feather in.  Once it became a picture the book glowed. Soon light flooded the room. All had to close their eyes as the light became far too bright. Then Doormaze no longer felt the book in her hands. She opened her eyes to see a light above her hands almost like a miniature star. What is this? Then it became so bright she had to close her eyes again. Then she felt something covering her body. It felt light and comfortable. Her eyes opened to see that she was c

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Four

  The Purple Book They travelled down the cave in West Mountain for an entire day. Yet they did not leave until the following day. They left the cave to see a group of small houses. They were all small and in the style of King Garnet’s castle. “This is the abandoned town of Faiton. It’s here somewhere. So I think we will have to go in them to find it. You need not worry, there has not been a single person seen here in decades.” The other three nodded. “And what does this next artefact look like?” “It is a purple book. It is made from the same material as the crystal flower.” “Right. Then, let’s split up and explore every house.” Doormaze spoke, punching her fist. “And mark the door of the house that has been checked and leave the door open while it's being checked.” “Good thinking.” They all split and walked into the first house that was closest to them. They all started on the ground floor. Then the first floor and the second floor. Upon seeing nothing, they left the house. They p

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Three

  The Purple Flower They, because it was late when they reached the top chamber, decided to take a break. They lit a fire and, after cooking a small stew, started to eat. “Now, tomorrow, where to next?” “Well, Doormaze, we must travel over the Flower Bridge. It used tobe a small village on a large plot of land that the other mouth of the cave leads to. The houses were too and far between. It was mainly covered in many different purple flowers.” “And that’s why it’s called Flower Bridge?” “Well, that is because of the plot of land that joins the East Mountain, which we are in, and West Mountain, which is where the Purple Flower is in, is naturally formed.” “And there is nothing underneath it.” “No.” “Well,” She said, finishing her meal. “That’s something to sleep on.” After they all ate their meal,they went to sleep. Doormaze dreamed of Natalie again. She opened her, now dragon, eyes. She walked over to the dragons. They were sound asleep. She smiled as she turned away from them. She wa

Scar Parents Fight Part Four

  Mother’s Knife Scar woke. She saw Morara right in front of her. She dived back as she punched her. She tried to unbuckle, yet she noticed that she soon noticed that it was jammed. She tried to pull the belt but that too was jammed. She tried to pull it again and again and again but it did nothing. She looked up in fear as she saw the knife coming at her. She quickly dived out of the way then the knife turned to her. She tried to punch her but she caught her wrist. She tried to pull her hand out of her hand. Yet she was too strong. She saw the knife getting closer and closer. She hit the arm as hard as she could which made her drop the knife. She then finally pulled out more of her belt and fell out. She then felt a slit in her arm. She let out a whimper as she looked up at Morana went to stab her again and again. She kicked her again and again and again. She looked at both Alex, who was unconscious. She drove her hands to his belt and she pulled the belt and he hit his head as he fel

Scar Parents Fight Final Part

  Assassin’s Sacrifice  Charlotte, knowing that none of them had any time or chance to call an ambulance, ran. She knew where the hospital was and that none of them had any time to lose. She ran down the street as fast as she could. Yet it must have been obvious where she was running to as Morana looked at her innanyer and knew in that moment she would kill to stop her from going there.  Her parents had the exact expression on their faces when she had to stop pretending that she was a boy. After all, they always wanted a boy and when she was born a girl they tried to turn her into one. But the only thing that reminded them that she was a girl was her name, which they shortened to Charlie at one point. Just to keep the illusion that she was a boy alive in their deluded minds. The only thing that got her out of that situation was the series of dead girls that were her sisters and only one son being alive at the cost of her neglect. Van Kira, she remembered his name was. “Oh no you don’t!
