My Mate From another world

Valraren

Valraren, knocked loudly on Zagthar temporary motel room door with his mate and Zagathars mate in tow.

Zagthar opened the door to find Valraren, standing there looking behind him and pushing the women into the room.

Once the door was shut behind them, Valraren said nervously as he brushed his right hand through his hair "it's started, the end is coming. Shit shit, I should of known who and what Drogdrannith's face truly was. I knew he was deadly but....this" Olive and Susan could only sit on the spare bed looking at him worriedly. Zagthar opened his mouth to ask him what he meant, but all Valraren could say was "turn on the news, it doesn't matter what channel. It's everywhere, you know once you have seen it" with that he sat on the edge of Zagthar's bed with his head in his hands. Olive sat next to him and began to stroke his back lovingly.

After a minute of silence, the sound of a news reporters voice was heard throughout the room, she was trying to control her voice 'here I am, at the monument of Stonehenge. Many myths and legends have been told about this place. But no one was excepting this...wait...wait....I have just got news that all the monuments around the world...are doing the same thing' Valraren looked up from his hands and looked at the screen in front of him, then at Zagthar's horrified look and back. After all this time, what they feared for so long had finally come true. Black and purple markings on all the monuments had finally appeared, pulsing out ancient letters of warnings, not to human kind although what was going to happen will surely destroy the human race. The warnings where for every mythical and magical creature alike, a warning that the Darkling's master, the darkness of the universe had awaken and with it will surely bring his monstrous pets, the same creatures that corrupted the first ancient council. To translate into human it read in a mixture of black and purple:

My servants of my own creation. The time of your true propose is beginning. Destroy the unbelievers, ripe this universe apart. And with its ashes, we will finally bring the dragon of old back to his rightful throne.

Valraren breathed out a long sigh and then said to both Olive and Susan "there is something we need to tell you both, not for your sake but for are's as well" Zagthar said in a pleading broken voice "Valraren, don't I beg you" Valraren just shook his head and carried on as if he didn't hear him "centuries ago, before the beginning of the universe herself and the ancient council. There was what was later called 'the 5', five ancient beings that once ruled space. They had no names and no meanings, they just existed. Soon the five fashioned what was later called the Universe herself, but one was jealous. He hated that she was prized above all and that she could make everything and everyone with a click of her fingers. He had an old friend that he met one day out of the blue, that he didn't realise existed, this old friend was to be one day be called the darkness of the universe, the thing living inside Drogdrannith. He told the darkness of the universe, of how he wished to destroy the universe herself and everything under her domain. Sigh..but luckily the other 4 members found out quite quickly what was about to happen and trapped him and his pets with the seals. The darkness of the universe fled, to plan his revenge and that's where....that's where we come in. Once the seals are nearly together and one last one is about to join the other seals, the monuments around Universe's favourite daughters domain, Mother Earth, will flash a mixture of black and purple ancient writing, the same colour of the binding spell. He will come in the form of a red dragon and destroy everything in his path and we the Darkness of the universe's trusted servants will path the way to his final victory, the darkness of the universe leading the charge, will we finally destroy the universe herself once and for all" he winced at the last bit, he had finally said what he always feared to say, but instead of his beautiful mate being disgusted with him, she did what he never thought she would ever say come out of her mouth "well, can we stop that from happening?" He looked at his beautiful mate shocked and said whilst trying to get his bearings right "umm, I. Sorry let me try that again. It depends" Olive asked confused "on what?" Zagthar spoke instead "it depends on if we have enough time to track the seals down and destroy them, before the darkness of the universe puts the last puzzle together. The thing living inside Liorn, is darkness of the universe's brother, if he finds it and gives it to him. Even when we fight against the darkness of the universe, we won't stand a chance..........unless" Zagthar began to rummage into Valraren's bag that he left the last time he came, as if finally finding what he was looking for he let out a yell of happiness, which Valraren quickly shushed him and said "are you stupid, they might still be following us" Zagthar, nodded and said whilst bringing what looked like an ancient book with gold binding, Jade front and back, with a picture of a scorpion on the front. This book was of the ancient sect of "Harbis-Octo" the followers of 'the 5' the same beings that trapped the 5th member, with the ancient seals. Zagthar, opened the book and found what he was looking for quite quickly, he read out "only the blood of lover that is bound, will destroy this curse, this prophecy. Before the end of the purple full moon"

Valraren just scoffed and said in a sarcastic voice "the last time I checked, his destined one hasn't been born yet. All Darkling's would know if she had, let alone feel it" he the. said in a serious tone whilst getting up from the bed "send the call, to all are brethren that have settled here, that will take up arms to protect are new home. I will also make sure that the Watchers know of the danger that faces us all. After all it's not only mankind that will be in danger of exterminated. Let's just hope that we will have time to stop the danger from happening" Valraren, walked over to the door and was about to open it when, Zagthar grabbed his left arm and said "you cannot do this alone. Like you said, they still might be following you" Valraren, looked at the worried look on his beautiful mates face and then back to Zagthar and said with as much hope as he can muster in his voice "I know old friend, but I still need to make sure Heather and Knox Al'u are okay. I haven't heard from them for awhile. Anyway, they are looking for two women and a Darkling, you know more than me how badly Hoplots eyesight is, unless they have a hit to do and unless I'm mistaken no one has put out a hit for us. There is a coven that I need to see, that will be vital in are quest of protecting this planet and the universe herself. I don't know how long I will be" he looked at his mate longingly and then back to Zagthar, he was about to ask him to look after his mate, but Zagthar said it for him "don't worry, I will protect your mate and my mate with my life. Just come back safe....brother" Valraren, was taken a back a bit from shock, Darkling's had no blood family, so being called brother was a big shock but a lovely one, without a backward look he quickly shut the door behind him and said sadly "please forgive me brother, this time I don't think I can make that promise" and with a heavy heart he left.
