Chapter 6: Missed Me
That night in an abandoned warehouse in the middle of nowhere, Matt held his gun down at his side as he looked around. 'Come on out nut case, I know your in here.' Matt said to himself as he looked around. He got into the building a little further when something black came down and knocked him out. When he woke up, he noticed that he is tied up and set down across from some innocent people who are also tied up. "What hit me?" Matt asked rubbing his head.
"Hello Matt, I am going to cut straight to it. Call your daughter and wife and get them down here or those people get killed." Shelia said handing Matt his phone she took from him.
Will, Mist, and Kyle were in the kitchen playing games after Mist finished practicing with her powers when Will's cell rang. They had decided to stay longer. She picked it up and looked at who would be calling. She excitedly picked opened up her phone. "Hey Matt, it's good to hear from you. I'm so glad your ok."
"Will, you and Mist need to get down at the abandoned warehouse outside of town. I love you with all my heart Will." Matt said almost sadly but Will shrugged it off and just thought he is tired.
"I love you with all my heart to Matt." Will said.
"Good, so bring it." Then the line went dead.
'What was that' she thought but cut herself off as she realized what he meant. 'The heart of Kandrakhar. All this time with it and I forgot I had it.' Will thought again. "Ok kids, get yourselves up off the chairs and get to the car. Very sudden change of plans." Then Susan walked in and gave her daughter and granddaughter a goodbye hug. "Bye mom, I do love you." Then the group left. "Kyle, I am dropping you off at your house." Thirty minutes later and they arrived at Kyle's house and dropped him off. Before Kyle got out of the car, Mist gave him a kiss and a hug.
Twenty minutes later and they arrived at the warehouse. The two cautiously walked into the building. They had been walking for a few minutes and couldn't see a thing until the lights came on. They saw Matt all tied up. "Will, behind you." By the time the two turned around, Shelia had gotten to close and knocked the two out cold. When they woke up, she felt something on her wrists and then saw Mist on the ground and chained to the ground. "Mist, are you ok?"
"Mom, yeah, I'm fine. Though the giant thing with spikes hanging directly above me kind of freaks me out." Then they all heard a laugh coming from up above.
"It's about time you everything goes according to plan." Shelia said with an evil grin. "That thing above you is going to drop on you Mist but first a little story about my family. You're going to love this. I am the niece of Shade, Scarlet and Defiant, ironic huh? Shade was never supposed to have a child because my aunts were supposed to have killed Will. But little Mrs. goodie goodie over there killed them. Mist, you father and his sisters ruled the underworld and guess what, that makes you a queen, your highness. You're the ruler of the underworld but that honor should have been mine and in order for me to have that honor, you have to be wiped out. I was meant to rule the underworld and you weren't supposed to have been born. You, your highness, you took everything away from me and so I have come to take everything back. Do you understand everything now?" Shelia said with an evil grin on her face.
The three looked wide eyed at what they had just heard. "So that's why you've been such a jerk to me ever since kindergarten?"
"Exactly, now I am taking back what was supposed to be mine and to think, your family didn't even know about this. Let me take care of something real fast. "Shelia pushed a button and then spikes from underneath the hostages, before Matt arrived, came up and killed them. "Now as I was saying, my glory will finally come into play. Goodbye your highness." Then Shelia pushed another button and the giant thing above Mist came down with crash and dust flew up into the air. "Goodbye old foe." Then she untied the Will and Matt and disappeared into the underworld.
"Mist no, Will said crying her eyes out." Matt put an arm around Will as she cried.
Shelia went to the underworld and into the council. She knocked on the door and they welcomed her in. She bowed in front of them and then stood. "I am here to take the throne." Shelia said with a smile.
"Sorry Shelia but you don't get the throne." The five from the council smiled.
"I am the next heir to the throne and Mist is dead, the throne should be mine." Shelia said raising her voice.
"Sorry Shelia, but she isn't gone yet."
"How, she couldn't have lived through that. It looks like I have something more to take care of." Then she stormed out of the room.
On earth, Will and Matt were just about to walk out of the building when they heard something. They turned their heads and saw Mist standing behind them. "Mom, dad, I'm ok, I just found a new power. I didn't mean to worry you." They all ran up to Mist and hugged her tightly.
"Mist, it's not your fault, it's Shelia's. Were just happy to see you're ok. What is this new power anyway?" The two asked curiously.
"Well, I can turn into a ghost like figure but not a ghost, more of like a mist actually." Mist smiled sheepishly.
Then Shelia appeared and looked wide eyed. "No way, how are you still alive?"
"That's for me to know and you to find out Shelia but I will say this much. You missed me." She said with a grin on her face.
