Chapter 5 A Kiss As A Distraction
- When morning came, It was the day of the festival and every creature from every realm was allowed go come if invited.
- It was the one day where all the creatures could gather around in one place.
- No realm had issue with the dragon realm, that's why it was the dragon realm that held this festival and that's why everyone would come.
- It was the perfect opportunity to sneak into the demon realm and release Celine .
- Why? Because it would be empty , just like every other realms would be .
- "Josty go to the festival. Karina and I would go to the demon realm and rescue Celine" Alexa said.
- "Why?That wasn't in the plan?"Josty argued.
- "We need an alibi. It will be obvious we'll be missing so if anyone ask for us, cook up something. Can you do that ?"
- "Yes , but be careful"
- "I will"Alexa replied and turned to Karina "Let's go "
- Alexa and Karina sneaked into the demon realm and when they got in they were surprised at how huge it was .
- "Whoa" Alexa marvelled as her voice echoed. It echoed because the realm was empty "It's such a pity that angels aren't allowed in "
- "I know ,right?" Karina replied marvelling at the place in awe.
- "Hey, where do you think Celine would be ? This place is so huge"
- "We have to check every corner "
- Alexa nodded her head "Let's go "
- At the festival, witches , dragons, elves,angels,demons ,werewolves, vampires, all gathered round drinking and cheering.
- But they were not all comfortable.
- Why ? Because of the presence of the demon lord.
- Damien noticed this and so did Rosco.
- "Should we leave ?" Rosco whispered to Damien who was busy scanning around.
- "No, let's stay "Damien replied. She wasn't here. It was obvious. She was at his realm .
- He balled his fist. This truly was a diversion.
- "I'll be back" Damien said to Rosco and walked away.
- Warren scanned the festival and was in shock to see Josty .
- "What are you doing here ? Aren't you supposed to be with Alexa and Karina?"
- Josty sighed "There was a change of plan"
- "What was the original plan?"
- Josty sighed " Well..she came up with this two days ago " she replied as she did a flashback;
- "Now gather around, I have a plan on how to rescue Celine on the day of the festival" Alexa had said.
- Karina eyes shone brightly"And what's that ?"
- "Wait for it" Alexa smiled "A love potion".
- "A love potion?" Josty shrieked
- "Yes" Alexa replied" A love potion would put the demon lord under a spell and under our control . That way he's going to be the one releasing Celine "
- "A love potion??!!!" Warren shouted.
- Josty looked around and shushed him "Reduce your voice . It's going to work "
- Warren squeezed his face"It's not "
- "Why ?"
- "Don't you know? Nothing works on the demon lord , not even a spell "
- Josty started panicking"What do we do now ?"
- "This is bad "
- "You bet"
- Warren shook his head " Not that . But the demon lord "
- "What happened to him?".
- "He's not here anymore"
- Josty shrieked "What!!???hey , shouldn't we go get them? "
- Warren shook his head "No. If they notice we are gone too. That would be a bigger problem. Let's just hope that Alexa and Karina don't caught "
- Back at the demon realm, Alexa sighed "Hey, have you found her yet?"
- Alexa and Karina had split up to find Celine
- Karina sighed"No,you ?"
- Alexa shook her head "Not yet " .
- Karina saw a figure "Hey, I think someone is coming"
- "For real ? Hide, hurry "
- Karina hid as Damien walked in, he smirked"Look what the wind blew in . I knew you would come "
- Alexa smiled " Really ? I knew you would come too "
- Her plan was going perfectly well. She thought
- "I knew you would come " Damien said .
- Alexa smiled "Really? I knew you would come too "
- She did a flashback on her plan ;
- "A love potion?" Josty shrieked
- "Yes" Alexa replied"A love potion would put the demon lord under a spell and under our control . That way he's going to be the one releasing Celine "
- "But how would you use it on him? He's going to be at the festival and you will be at the realm"Josty asked.
- Alexa smiled "Do you think so? I can bet that he'll be in the realm " she turned to Karina "I'll look for a distraction and you will open the potion, do you understand?"
- Karina nodded her head."But , why don't we just tell the head angel?"
- "We can't . If we tell the head angel, Celine is as good as dead" Alexa replied.
- "Why ?" Karina asked
- "Any angel that steps into the demon realm if she manages to get out alive, she gets killed by the head angel"Alexa looked at Karina "Including you and I"
- Karina nodded her head "And the distraction? How will you cause it ?"
- Alexa thought long and hard"I'll just have to work with whatever that's around me "
- As she stared at damien, she thought long and hard of how to come up with a distraction.
- Damien smirked as he stepped forward towards her slowly "So? Did you find your friend?"
- "No "
- "So at the end of the day, you didn't find your friend and you are going to die. Was that all part of your big plan?"
- Shut up . Alexa thought. She needed to think of a distraction bit he was distracting her. She needed him to shut up.
- Then her eyes bulged. She just had an idea.
- She remembered what Warren had told her two days ago ;
- "Don't do anything 'over dangerous' "he'd said
- "Don't worry, I won't " she'd replied
- But now she had no choice .
- Damien continued walking towards her "You shouldn't have-"
- Alexa grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and kissed him.
- Damien's eyes widened in shock . What was she doing? How dare she put her lips on his ??
