In No Man's Land

Survive

Warlocks are hybrids of a witch and a demon. They were created when witches sell their souls to demons and they seal the deal with intercourse. Warlocks have all the same features as witches, and they also have demonic powers from their infernal parents.

Most of the warlocks look completely human, like witches, but due to being a part-demon, they also manifest demonic traits, like inhuman strength, the ability to adapt to any situation, speed, and an almost perfect appearance.

A good number of them look different with red skin and monstrous in nature. And this type of warlock has sharp claws with which they pierce through their enemies’ hearts.

For centuries, warlocks have been thought to be the male counterparts of witches. The hybrids inherit the powers of both demons and witches but to a greater degree, making them incredibly powerful supernatural creatures. Hybrids possess a wide array of additional powers that are beyond humans.

Grabbing John by the throat, the creature lifted him above the ground. “Do you know what it took us to get to you?"

“Let me go!” John cried out.

“This is not why we are here. We are not here to harm him. The great warlock lord will be unhappy for your actions,” said the first creature.

The second creature glared at John and then let go of him as he slump to the ground.

Picking himself up, John fixed his gaze at the second creature, “You are so mean. You know what, I am going back to New York City and if you try to stop me, I will call 911 to lock up your asses.”

John puts his hand into his pocket for his cell phone, only to realize he wasn’t with it. “Oh s**t, I am doomed,” he cried out.

“It’s time for us to go. The path is clear.”

The second creature places his hand on John’s shoulder as they all disappear.

John was already freaking out as they appeared at the entrance of a white castle. He looked around and then realized they are no longer at the rocky roadside. The ground on which he stood on was cobbled.

“How the hell did we get here?” He turned to face the second creature and gave him a side look, “Seems like you can teleport. Do you mind teleporting me back to my apartment in 12th Avenue, New York City?”

“The warlock lord will be waiting for you. Follow us.”

The first creature takes the lead as he ordered the human guards standing by the entrance gate of the castle to open the gate.

As they walked into the castle, John started looking around. The walls of the castle were all white and sparkles like a diamond. There was a large statue at the left corner, “That’s the statue of witch Neena,” said the first creature.

“And who is witch Neena?”

“Neena is the first witch that ever walked the earth. Neena, also known as Isabel and Victoria, as well as the mother of the lines of witches, warlocks, wizards, sorcerers, shamans, and gypsies.”

“This is not making any sense. Am I in the land of the witches?”

“We told you earlier, you are in no man’s land,” said the second creature.

“I don’t know how I got here, perhaps, one of you can explain further to me. It looks like I…”

John’s words were interrupted when the first creature said in a loud voice. “On your knees!”

“For what?” John glances at the creature.

“The great warlock lord approaches.”

Immediately the two creatures went on their knees dragging John on his knees as well. John’s thought was wondering as he started looking around. “I can't see no one here.”

He has been waiting to see the warlock lord that made the creatures go on their knees dragging him with them. Since he didn’t see anyone around he decided to stand to his feet.

Immediately he stood to his feet a thick black cloud covered the entire place. There were at the throne hall of the castle with a gigantic throne of an old oak tree.

Another red cloud emerged from the black cloud descending towards John who at this time was standing to his feet. On the top of the cloud was a man sitting on it. The man has long white hair and in his right hand was a scepter of gold. His eyes were red and he has a pointed nose.

As soon as the cloud touched the floor, the rest of the clouds disappeared. The man glances at the two creatures and ordered them to rise to their feet. “You have done well by bringing our visitor to us.”

Switching his attention towards John, he grinned. “You must have too many questions going through your mind right now. You will get them all answered.”

“The only thing that’s on my mind right now is how to get back to New York City.”

“I’m afraid; you are a long way from home.” The warlock lord approaches John and continued, “I am the warlock lord and you can call me Ozenzo.”

“I just found myself in this world and I believe this must be a different world from my world. Nothing here seems familiar.”

“Walk with me, John!”

“How did you know my name? I never mentioned it to anyone around here.”

“Nothing is hidden before the eyes of the great warlock. Walk with me.”

John reluctantly followed Ozenzo as they make their way to the statue he saw on his way into the castle. Standing in front of the statue, Ozenzo pointed John’s attention to the statue, “Do you know her?”

“I was told she was the first witch that walked the earth and she goes by the name Neena.”

“That’s right and I can see your memory serves you right.”

“Now that I have answered your question, it’s your turn to answer mine. Why am I here and what the hell is this place?”
