MISSION EUPHORBIA

006

"Start talking, what was all that in there?"she asked as she entered the room.

"That was your father",Tyrone replied, removing his shirt and sighing.

"I still don't believe that s**t, but I was talking about the kneeling "she cleared up.

"Your father is a very powerful man, Reiss". Myra replied " What you did in there was not wise."

"Stop calling him that" she snapped at her.

"Of all the things you have learnt in the past 24 hours, this is what you are finding hard to believe?" Myra asked, c*****g an eyebrow.

"My father is dead, he has been dead for the past 21 years and he will remain dead because dead people do not magically manifest" she said, unintentionally raising her voice.

" Your father was never dead, he just needed you to believe that he was". Tyrone spoke up

"So he didn't want me - that's even better, if he was okay with me out of his life for 21 years, why does he suddenly want me now?" she asks, frustrated.

"He'll explain everything tomorrow, tonight you need to sleep",Avalon said, getting into the bed that was under the window. They didn't answer any more of her questions so she had no choice but to get into the bed. Sleep came to take her about thirty minutes later with a little help from Myra.

A noise came from outside the room, waking Tyrone, was the lightest sleeper, he looked around and saw that they were all still laying in their respective beds so he tried to go back to sleep but then he heard footsteps. He muttered something under his breath and his eyes flashed gold, he looked through the door with his inner eyes and searched for the aura of the person. He was fully awakened when he sensed that it was a fae and two at that. As far as he knew, Jupiter did not have any fae in his community, so who were these and what were they doing so far from home.

"Vee, Vee"he whisper-shouted so the intruder wouldn't know he was awake. Avalon stirred in his bed before sitting up. "What the heck do you want " he replied, looking out the window to check if the sun was up. Tyrone shushed him "Wake the girls, there are fae outside."

Avalon was fully awake then he got to waking the girls, telling them the situation at hand. Reiss did not understand what was so bad about this and was about to put up a fuss, but the seriousness on their faces shut her up. Tyrone went to the door and counted the number of people that were outside the door. He held up 7 fingers and the rest of them backed away. Flames came to Myra's hands and Tyrone's eyes glowed. There was an unspoken decision that Avalon would cover Reiss.

The door was kicked down by the intruders in one try and they rushed in, surprised to see that their targets were ready for them but pleased at the fact that they outnumbered them. Myra formed a whip with her flames while Tyrone did nothing much to Reiss' bewilderment. Why was he just standing there if they were under attack? Myra was holding them back with the whip, even though they had toys of their own. Reiss thought it was funny to watch if you left out the whole 'people trying to ambush you in the middle of the night' thing. Myra was fighting off 6 men who nearly doubled her in size with a whip made of flames, but it didn't matter anymore. Tyrone's eyes flashed gold again and Avalon muttered 'finally' under his breath.

A black hole opened up in the floor and the same half naked man that had saved Reiss appeared from it. Tyrone shouted something unintelligible to him and he rolled his eyes before doubling in size. He took Myra's place, knocking out the men at once so easily as if he was taking a piss. The chaos was subdued and the man disappeared after turning around and tipping an invisible hat at them. Myra was panting in exhaustion while Tyrone seemed to have knocked himself out. Reiss stood in her place as her brain finally processed what had happened - they were attacked and Myra, who barely managed in their self-Defence classes, held back 6 armed men long enough for Tyrone to summon a demon who knocked them out. Myra was using the last bit of her strength to lull her friend back to sleep. She could ask questions at daybreak. Right now they all needed the sleep.

Tyrone, Avalon, Myra, Reiss and the chief of guards, along with Jupiter and his personal guards were all in the general room, while Myra gave the Chief of guards the verbal beat down of his life.

"What kind of s**t guard system do you have" Myra shouted at the chief of the guards. "Not one, not even three, but seven intruders entered the building. A dog could do a better job."

"ENOUGH!!!!" Jupiter shouted from his seat, immediately quieting the room. All eyes turned to him. "You are lucky not a hair on my daughter's body is harmed or your blood will be shed in front of your comrades as a warning."

"Yes Jupiter"

"Now Everyone, leave" his voice left no room for argument, so the room emptied until Euphorbia reached the door."You stay, my child". Myra was still high on adrenaline. She considered questioning him but thought better of it when she remembered that the threat he made might as well be directed at her.

"Sit, Euphorbia" he said when they were left alone with his guard, of course, he never went anywhere without him. "I'm sure you have accepted your lineage by now."

"How could I not?"she muttered under her breath "Even if I had accepted it, that doesn't explain why you abandoned me for all those years. Tell me something, why now?"

"Relax my child, I can feel your curiosity from this side of the room, so I will offer an explanation. If you would refrain from interruption, that would be wonderful. I believe you have finally accepted our world, as after what you have seen it cannot be denied. I apologize again for having you live as an orphan your whole life. Let me start from the beginning. Tens of thousands of years ago there were truly pure-blooded humans, there were also demons, angels and gaphs. The demons got tired of life in the underworld, so they came to earth to cause trouble in the form of corrupting their blood liness. So, demons bred with humans making half breeds like vampires. There are few similarities to how humans portray vampires in moving pictures as to how they truly are. So the half breeds discovered their supernatural powers and believed they were superior to, the humans and deserved to rule over them . This caused a war between them and the angels sat by and watched, at least until one of their kind was killed. The angels were still hesitant to join the war, so they made their own half breeds to fight for them. This was slightly effective, especially with the shifters. These are humans who can turn into animals and backs. There are also moving pictures of the wolf shifters or, as they are known, werewolves. The war was still going on and hard and when the earth started getting damaged the gaphs joined. The gaphs' power came from their connection to the earth's 4 elements, so when they bred with humans , elementalists were created. The very first elementalists had powers over 2 and sometimes three elements, but over time, as the half breeds bred with humans, the gaph/angel/demons bred with humans, blood got more diluted. The war eventually ended with the creation of the council . The council consists of each hybrid who represented each major group of half breeds also one angel, one demon and a gaph sit on the council. The council had to approve anything and everything before it could be carried out and the supernatural world was happy publicly, but privately we were seething, especially so when the council wanted our kind to hide . We went into hiding though, because no one had the power to stand up to the council, the few that tried lost their lives. The people who weren't in support of the council grew in number every second but they never acted on it because it would be idiotic to go against the unbeaten force that is the council. Tired of being subjects under the tyrannical rule of the council, a group of powerful supernaturals come together to create the ultimate weapon to be the downfall of the council. After years of trial and error, they succeeded. They named the weapon mission E"
