First Stygian Diviner:Apocalypse

For the following days, Isiah worked himself to the bone so that he could finish the preparations before the triple full moons .

It wasn't just something his family did, everyone in this place had their own preparations to survive the night, but what they all agreed about was that this night was taught even to the higher-ranked mages among them, even his dad had a lot of fears towards it .

To survive this night you have to be calm, powerful, smart, and patient above all.

The worst fear about this period was the anger of the people here. If they lose someone on this night, they just want to take revenge and by that, they make their lives like a living hell as if it is not already like that .

He stored the vegetables and fruits in the basement which was deep under the house. The basement was large and during this period they used it like their house above them.

By preparation, they meant that he had to move every piece of furniture to the basement and everything in their house to protect them from the destruction that was going to happen.

"Isiah dear, someone is looking for you, can you come here and finish what is on your hands later" , Lisa said with a gentle voice.

Whenever his mom called him dear, he knew that she was accompanied by someone or she was about to ask him to do something beyond his acceptance.

He then left the basement and walked towards the door, his mom was standing there with the door opened.

There stood that girl from four days ago, the one who saved him and healed his injuries.

He was surprised yet he tried to not show it to his mother. His mother smiled at her and said:" Here he is, do you guys study together at the institution?"

" Yes, I wanted to ask him about something, I hope I am not bothering, the preparations come first for sure ", Ethyl was talking with confidence, even if his mother rejected her she would have been handling the situation perfectly, he knows that at least about her.

" Let's go outside ", Isiah walked towards the door without even looking at her, and she followed him automatically waving at his mother goodbye.

Ethyl walked with a steady pace which made her look like royalty to him, there was something different about her and he couldn't put a finger on it.

Because of his work in the basement he was tired to the point where he was gasping for air, not only that but because he was surprised too by this sudden visit .

" What are you doing here? Why did you lie to her? You said that we don't study together…What's your plan?"

" You must have been terrified by my visit Isiah Duncan"

"I am not ", he yelled.

"Well…. I am !"

" Why? You don't seem like the type to be terrified " .

" I am faking it, in a good way I guess", She laughed.

Isiah gazed at her blue eyes then said: " What do you want from me? Why are you here? How did you know where I live ? Did you ask someone ?Who ?I will punish whoever gave it to you ".

" You are an overthinker for sure !".

" Don't mess with me, answer my questions or leave" .

He noticed his mother still standing next to the window, so he faked a smile at her then looked at Ethyl very angry and said :" Leave, I am busy ".

" The triple full moons is about to happen, a lot are going to die again, can't you just ask your brother to do something about it? I didn't know that you are a Duncan when I saved you, but …now I know and that's why I have to ask you this …ask your brother to stop this " .

" Are you stupid, crazy, or both…my brother ? Are you serious…the one who destroyed the old globe doesn't live with us, he destroyed our world, did you think that he will live here peacefully , he …is nowhere to be found" .

"You are his brother, I thought that at least you of all people have a way to contact him, he is your beloved brother, am I wrong! ".

Isiah walked away holding his head then said : " He doesn't even know I exist , he doesn't even know me, and even if he does he would kill me like everyone else, this is the truth ".

Ethyl looked at him for a long time then said: " Well I had to ask you this before doing my plan, you left me no choice ".

" What do you mean? ".

" You will know the day the triple full moon happens "She smiled at him showing her white-lined teeth .

Isiah felt that something wrong was going to happen, but he didn't think about it more .

" Isiah Duncan, stay safe, okay.... let's meet up after this period, you know where I live so visit me, I'll prepare some tea for you ".

" I am not going to visit you, just leave " .

" Let me tell you that i …i will survive the night, i am powerful and i survived hundreds of nights, i don't even hide like some cowards, i fight, i face it and mark my territory by their blood, it is tasty though".

her face was serious and she had a scary look on her face.

" You are crazy" .

" I am " .

"We will meet again, boy".

Isiah saw her leaving their garden and he kept following her with his eyes until she disappeared; he was confused, she sounded like she was threatening him and he didn't like that .

She is a prodigy who is going to level up soon, and if she uses magic she is going to win and cause a lot of pain let alone death.

" Who's that super hot girl? Your girl?I didn't think that you like girls in that way, I thought that you are either a loser who can't be in a relationship or asexual by nature ? ".

Isiah felt ashamed of what his mother said, and to save a little pride left in him he said:" I don't have to think about stupid things like love when all my world is falling apart, here , I have to survive, any form of relationship will only drug me down ….Mother ".
