Chapter 7


The cold night air brought warmth to Claire. Her soft features made her look delicate like a flower that would wither if touched. That was exactly the case with this God.

She was condemned to the house of Lucifer which was slowly killing her even in no one had realized it. With her being the God of light and all things pure being trapped in such a horrid place was simply unbearable. She was constantly being whipped by the demons that tormented the souls of the underworld. She was humiliated all for something she did not do. Partially that is.

You would think there was no punishment for love but you were sadly mistaken. Love is taken seriously in Mount Glandeur. The elders themselves would punish you if they had found you guilty. Only those of high ranks were allowed to show signs of affection towards members of the royal family unless the mirrored the emotion that is.

Piros...she thought dreamily her shoulder length ash grey hair blew in the hot breeze released by the lost souls that cried out in agony. She was a minor deity next to her counter part her twin who was far more superior. She looked out in other nothingness with only her memories keeping her company.

She remembered precisely ever detail on his sculpted face. His dull black eyes made him stand out more. With a face that could make a God jealous he was a God. She just couldn't get enough of him. She knew he was unstable but she didn't care. She still loved him and she would do anything in her power to help him to be with him.

Lauren was thrown aggressively onto the hard pavement the temple. She body hit the ground with such force you'd be surprised she didn't break anything. Her tangled black hair partnered with her tattered clothing and bruised skin made her look untamed. And to think she was the Goddess of love.

"Do you want to play now?" She stared at him in denial. His stone cold expression didn't help either. Once again she would know how unstable Piros really is. She hadn't realized she was being held by her ankle until it was too late.

In a moment of fear she reacted. A bright pink orb shot out of her hand hitting the God sending him straight into a wall. Bang! Upon impact he had managed to crack the temple wall. A rare thing to happen these wall were almost unbreakable depending on the state of its keeper.

Her breath hitched when she heard his cry of rage. She could tell he was pissed very pissed. She heard the sounds of his boots crushing the ground beneath him. He sounded a battle cry as he raised his fists preparing to attack. Once again in an act of desperation she did something she never thought she'd do.

A large golden ring formed infront of her growing in size until it blocked her entire form. It was a portal and he just ran straight through it.

"Raymond! Get off him" Paige cried out tugging on his massive form. He ignored her pleads however and continued to harass the poor mortal. By the time Paige had split the two Joseph was cover head to toe in his own blood.

Paige was enraged by this. Why would he do this? She asked herself staring at her friend in shock.

"Why?" She questioned then waited for his response.

"My king ordered me to. This is war Paige don't you see. It's not about you brother any more. Damian brought war! It's up to you to choose which side your on" he answered staring at her with a cold expression.

"Damian brought War? Bull. My uncle disrupted my brothers coronation his didn't bring war. What the hell are you talking about" right know Paige could care less about her tone.

"He didn't interrupt the coronation. Your brother is crowned king he completed the oath. I will not allow you to defy my king like that. He has ordered me to capture this mortal and I will not fail him" 

Paige stared at him in utter shock. She was certain her brother left the oath incomplete. He wasn't king. There was no side. All she had to do was get the chosen and capture him then this will all be over or so she thought.

"No..no! Your talking nonsense. There's no war. No sides to pick-" Raymond cut her off with a sinister laugh.

"Look around you. The blood shed the rivalry between each immortal. Don't you feel it. The presence of Chaos. Isn't that your family name. Order is gone foolish girl there is only. Chaos" she felt her knees grow weak.

She wasn't prepared for this....war. She knew what happened last time. She knew how many lives were lost. How many of her friends died. She was born during the first war. She was the peace amidst the Chaos. The light in the darkness. She was the one to save them all but that was years ago. She was a child then she couldn't do what she had done thousands of years ago.

She needed help. She needed allies. She needed people who she could trust. The legends.....she thought finding the courage to stand. She then looked at Joseph who was bleeding profusely.

"Chaos...." the words rolled of her tongue perfectly. She took a step forward causing Raymond to involuntarily take a step back "Blood shed" she arched
her neck slightly rasing her hands, pointing them at the God of War.

"Rivalry amongst the Gods" her eyes turned black not a speck of white could be seen. She was on a platform with no railings. One more step and the God of War would be sent hurddling towards the ground.

By now most if not all the mortals were gone. Some scattered others killed. The Gods however continued to battle the blinds bloods. What they didn't know was they were actually battling themselves. There minds were being toyed with but who was the one pulling the strings?

"Princess calm down now. Prince charming doesn't look so good down there " Paige ignored his comment taking other step forward.

"The war you seek is present" Raymond gulped fearing what she would say next "Let the battle begin. Gods against Gods. But tell me" she paused staring at him intensely taking another step forward. Unconsciously the God of War took a step back loosing his balance he fell to the ground.

The last thing he could hear before the earth swallowed him was those seven words that made his blood run cold "Who will save us from there wrath?"
