Chapter 101: A Series Of Abduction

'Why do you talk to me in this way? Can you wake up?' Amaris asked.

'I was bitten, so I am not in my right mind. I lost my sanity a few days ago. I might attack you once I wake up.'

'If you went crazy, why are you talking to me using a mind link?'

'I don't know. I have been asking for help ever since that day. I screamed for help when I saw that minotaur and the other two who came running towards me, but you are the only one who heard me.' The girl answered.

'What's your name?'

'Kayla. What's yours?'

'Amaris.'

'Amaris? The Luna of the Blue Moon Pack?'

Amaris frowned. She didn't expect that a Terran also knew her. She thought that only mythical creatures knew her, especially those looking for her.

'How did you know me?' She asked Kayla.

'Everyone was talking about you. I heard those demons were looking for a creature that came from Ocearia because it's one of your protectors.' Kayla answered.

Amaris looked at Zion and stood up.

"Did you find anything?" He asked.

Amaris nodded. "They were attacked by demons and monsters a few days ago."

"Why?" Maxine asked with a frown on her face.

"They were looking for the last protrea. They believed the protrea was hiding in this town, so they questioned everyone. But when they didn't find anyone, they started attacking the Terrans, turning the adults into demons and abducting the children." Amaris explained.

"Where did they take the children?" Diana asked, worried.

"To Tartarus."

'Help me.' Kayla talked to Amaris using the mind link again.

Amaris looked at Kayla. She didn't know what kind of help she could give her, but she suddenly remembered what her mother had taught her.

She kneeled back beside Kayla while the others were curious about her action.

'Mother, father. Please guide me.' She whispered.

She closed her eyes for a moment, and when she opened them, the others were surprised when it turned silver. Then a bright light came from her amulet. It was the amulet given by Maxine's mom.

"Resendo." Amaris mumbled while she gently brushed her palm in Kayla's face.

Kayla suddenly opened her eyes and started screaming again.

"Hold her!" Amaris ordered.

Damien held Kayla by the wrists while Cole grabbed her ankles.

'It's painful!' Kayla talked to Amaris.

'I know. But bear with it. I can't make you a Terran again, but I'll make sure you won't lose your sanity when you turn.' Amaris said.

Kayla screamed again when she felt a sharp pain strike her chest from deep within. The pain subsided at times, just to burst up again and with seemingly boosted intensity.

She started sweating when she felt her body beginning to get hot. The feeling of a sudden rise in her temperature added an intense pain. She felt like she was on fire.

When she screamed again, a shadowy black ball-like figure came out of her mouth.

"Le Vanescere." Amaris whispered. Then the black figure disappeared.

Kayla fell unconscious after, and Amaris' eyes turned back to blue.

"What did you do?" Maxine asked.

"She was going to turn into a demon. She would lose her sanity and attack us. I cannot undo what was done to her. She would still turn, but she would be fine." She answered.

Amaris stood up and walked closer to Zion. She couldn't understand why she suddenly wanted to be in his arms.

Zion was staring at Amaris when she walked towards him. He was surprised when she leaned her head to his chest while wrapping her arms around.

The others were also surprised and turned their heads away. Alwyn still felt the pain of seeing Amaris hugging Zion. He averted his eyes then walked out of the house.

"Hey, are you okay?" Zion asked.

"Yes. I suddenly felt like I wanted to be near you." She said.

Zion didn't say a word and just carried her. When he sat down on the couch, putting Amaris on his lap.

"Rest. I'll be with you." He whispered.

Amaris nodded. She could not answer because her eyes suddenly shut down and she fell asleep.

Diana sat beside them, looking at her kids, who were already sleeping on the mattresses they had put together.

"Do you think we could save those children?" Diana asked Zion.

"We have to try. If they bring those kids to Tartarus, I think something is going on other than Amaris." Zion answered.

'What do you mean?" Damien asked when he and Shelly sat across Zion.

Zion sighed deeply before answering.

"Ari said that they were looking for the last protrea, but why did they take those kids? It didn't make sense. They should focus on what they were asked to do. The girl said they were attacked but look at this house. There's no sign of any struggle here. She said it happened a few days ago, but we saw the houses outside. They didn't look like it just happened." Zion explained.

The houses and the buildings looked abandoned for years, but the house they picked was different. Aside from dust, all the things inside were still in good shape.

"Do you think she's lying?" Shelly asked.

Zion shook his head. "I don't think so. Ari could smell lies, so she will know if the girl's not telling the truth."

"Maybe we could just ask both of them when they wake up." Damien commented.

Zion agreed. The girl was one of the children from the photos, so she's definitely a Terran who lived in that house. But what really happened in Mineloa? He thought to himself.

"Why do you think they were targeting children?" Diana asked again.

Zion turned his gaze to Diana. He remembered that her kids were abducted as well, and it was a coincidence that they found them.

"Do you think your kids were taken for the same reason that those kids were abducted?" Zion asked Diana in return.

"Yes. When we looked for them, we heard that someone from the Underworld was ordering the demons and monsters. I didn't hear the name, but there's only one reason why they need children."

Zion frowned. He knew what Diana was talking about, but he couldn't believe it.

"Diana, the Demon King won't allow a Titan to wake up. They were taken to Tartarus to be imprisoned there for eternity. Even though the Demon King was not the one who guards Tartarus, if he failed to secure it, Orcus would give the Underworld to another demon." Zion said.

"The Demon King is responsible for assigning demons who could secure the gates to Tartarus. Something might have happened if those demons that abducted the kids had brought them there. Demons were not allowed just to come and go in the mortal realm. It's against the law of Terra. And we were talking about demons with Terran kids." Damien also explained.

"Unless the demon king was held captive." Shelly blurted.

The three looked at Shelly. She was from Mirrikh and ran away from her home because Phoebus was also abducted.

"It's the Demon King. I don't think someone could defeat him. He has legions, and he's powerful enough to fight the enemies." Diana commented.

A long time ago, the vampires attempted to take over the Underworld, but the Demon Prince Zuriel stopped them. He was the one who guarded Semel at that time, and he defeated the vampires all by himself.

"There's always a way, and you all know that. Phoebus was abducted even though he's a God. He's not like the Demon King who could fight, but he could still use his powers against them, yet he was taken." Shelly said.

She was right. Phoebus was not a powerful God. He's a Prorosisté, an oracle. But he still had his powers to protect himself from lower demons.

Zion sighed and thought of what Diana said earlier. He looked at Diana then turned to Damien and Shelly.

"If they were kidnapping children to feed their souls to a Titan, who do you think it was?" Zion asked.

Zion never saw what was in Tartarus since they were not allowed to go even in the Underworld. But according to rumors and stories, the exiled and banished Titans were imprisoned in Tartarus, resting in glass coffins. They were put to sleep for eternity by the current Gods.

They said that you could only awaken one of the Titans if you feed them children's souls. A Titan needed to eat a thousand souls of children to regain its powers.

Diana didn't say a word, but she looked at the woman quietly sleeping in Zion's arms.

Zion frowned and gritted his teeth. "No. They can't do that." He said.

"It's a possibility." Damien exclaimed.

"Her body didn't have an anima. Why would they try to wake her up?" He asked with a dark expression on his face.

"They could force her anima to return to its original body, and in that way, it would be easier for them to capture her.." Diana answered.
