Chapter Thirty-Seven: Museum Secrets

Lok's POV

Our group was heading to the Museum of Modern Art in New York City when I heard Sophie say that our stop is just down the street. I asked Sophie why we've spent the past twelve hours in Museums when we're supposed to be here for rest and relaxation feeling Dante's arm slip around my waist.

Sophie stretched saying that what I said is 'great' in the form of a question directed at me before I shrugged knowing that Tersly's going to give me a quiz or test on the Museums we're visiting when we get back. I asked Den if this was fun when he said 'sure' asking why we're going so out of our way before Cherit came out of my bag saying that Huntik Foundation Central HQ in in New York.

I asked Sophie if we could go there looking back at her since I don't want Dante to move so much just because he doesn't want to let go of my waist. Sophie said we have no time because we have three more Museums to see tonight making me stifle a groan.

I felt Dante's lips on my forehead when I sagged slightly since he knows why I don't want to go to more Museums before he told us that he has a detour planned for tomorrow. We walked into the Museum of Modern Art and I relaxed only slightly when we did since I do love Museums but the probability of a quiz, sewing, laundry, and mail sorting as well as playing with Fergal as much as I can when we get back is very high and I don't like those odds.

Time Skip: Next Day on a Roller Coaster

We were on a Coaster enjoying it before I smiled at Dante but it disappeared when I heard and saw his Holotome beeping which means he has a message. Dante opened it asking Metz what he can do for him before he told us he wants us to head over to the Cloisters immediately because the Blood Spirals found a Casterwill Stronghold.

Sophie asked that in the form of a question when she was jerked into her seat again before Dante apologized asking him to continue. Metz told us the mission was 'Mission: Defend the Cloisters' and prevent the Blood Spiral invasion to make sure they don't obtain the Casterwill secrets hidden there.

We went down a hill when Cherit decided to come out of my bag which was a bad idea before I grabbed his tail when he was about to be lost. I looked at Dante the entire time as I pulled Cherit to my chest telling him that this seems bad before he said we don't have a moment to lose.

Den said there was one more drop before we went down it as Dante said the normal phrase 'Seekers, we have a mission' yelling afterwards as we went down the hill.

Time Skip: in a Jet

I looked down at the Casterwill Stronghold mentioning that it looks so out of place before Den finished the sentence with 'in the middle of New York City' as I looked back at Dante who was speaking about how it came to be here. The bricks were apparently brought here one by one from France before I looked at Sophie hearing her say that even her Family Secrets were kept from her.

Santiago said that coming here may change that before I spoke up saying that even if that may be the case the Keeper there may not wait too long to keep the secrets hidden from the Blood Spirals, or other Casterwills. Dante told LeBlanche to bring us in low because we're not bothering with Parachutes as I opened the door hearing LeBlanche say for us to hold on.

Dante told LeBlanche that if anything goes wrong he's to use the Power Amplifier which LeBlanche rephrased as a question because he's never heard of it before. I jumped followed by Den, Sophie and then Dante but before Dante landed on the roof I said it looks clear but doesn't sound clear.

Two Blood Spiral Messengers appeared behind us telling Sophie they've been waiting for her and that they've been anticipating it. Sophie said we should finish this quickly and get down to the Library before the two Messengers, a male and female, casted Nullcurse which made Dante grab my hand as he ran to dodge it with Den.

Sophie on the other hand went into a crouched position to dodge it before I covered my mouth to stifle a chuckle when Den said that the two were fighting over her. She said that they were fighting over who gets to incinerate her before the male Messenger pushed the female one away but Dante casted Raypulse to intercept the male's Poisonfang.

I heard Dante invoke Caliban before I invoked Ironsquire who I've been working with for only a short while the others hid together. I heard the male Messenger tell Midnight Rook 'now!' before the armored Titan bird came over the roof attacking Ironsquire.

The female Messenger invoked Dark Pharaoh who attacked Caliban who was distracted by Midnight Rook who moved from attacking Ironsquire to Caliban. Midnight Rook decided to try and make Caliban fall off the roof because he was only hanging onto the ledge from Dark Pharaoh's attack.

I watched as Ironsquire dodged and attacked Dark Pharaoh before I heard Dante cast Touchram sending the Messenger flying as I asked Den where the other Messenger went. Den and I looked around before I heard the Messenger cast Abyssalfall when he touched Sophie's shoulder making a small black hole under her as she slowly sinked through it.

I heard the Messenger cast Doublespell and Augerfrost hitting Cherit who was trying to help Sophie and Den's left ankle so he fell off the roof when he ran to try and help her as well. I tried to get to Sophie but was kicked multiple times in the stomach before I could reach her casting Everfight in a small dosage when I saw Sophie struggling to keep her head above the black hole.

I was finally able to grab Sophie's hand when Den got up to the roof again casting Raypulse on the man making him fall so I could help her without hindrance. I told LeBlanche that he's doing good as he was using the accuracy of his Kindlestrike really well.

I helped Sophie out dropping my hands as soon as she was safe asking if she was alright before I heard Dante have Caliban return to his Amulet. Dante and LeBlanche as well as Santiago helped to break the window that separated us from the Blood Spiral Messengers before I heard Sophie say that it won't be that easy calling the Spiral's creeps.

A sword was thrown from the Huntik Jet before Den went after Dante and Sophie and I followed after as I heard Nullcurse, Fireswarm, and another Nullcurse being casted at us before I swung around the electric looking rope to dodge them and get off of the rope at the same time kicking the Messenger in the chest. "First floor everyone exit in a calm manner so as to not cause a commotion" I said before I heard Den invoke Vigilante.

Kiel invoked Cerberus before I heard Dante tell us to engage the enemy hearing Den tell Vigilante to get Cerberus but Vigilante was thrown back by him when he went on the offensive. LeBlanche's Titan, the one with the sword from earlier, went against Ignatius who I think is Kiel's or one of the other Messenger's Titans.

I asked Den if he was alright before Sophie came over to me in a fighting stance once I heard Den almost choke out that he was fine since his voice sounded rough and scratchy. Monsieur Focauld asked Dante what this is since he was supposed to keep Sophie safe before she told him that she can take care of herself and that she's not a child.

The both of us went with physical frontal attacks but they didn't work too well before we decided to cast Raypulse but it was blocked when Kiel casted Doublespell and Auraforce knocking us back. I heard Kiel say we fight like children which I didn't mind since that just means we need to work harder in training.

I heard Den say that this isn't looking well hearing Dante say that it looks fine to him making me smile before I heard him tell Den to sweep the Messenger's legs and he did. From the grunting I'm guessing it worked very well before I looked back when I heard Sophie ask where Kiel went saying 'over there!' pointing to the circular table in the middle of the Library where Kiel was running towards.

I invoked Kipperin when Sophie casted Honorguard to protect herself from getting hit by Ignatius' flames. We kept dodging Nullcurses when I heard Cherit yell my name in my right ear over the loud noise to where I could barely hear him yell it.

'Locket we're using the Power Amplifier so be careful okay?' I heard Dante tell me through our Mind Link, after a while he also said that I have to really be careful because it's going to be Touchram full amplification which was very dangerous so I'm guessing it's Sophie's plan. We dodged a Touchram that was going all over the place hitting anything moving outside the barrier before I saw the crystal that was vital almost get grabbed by Cerberus before we grabbed it just in time.

I flew up with Cherit because Kipperin was still invoked as Dante, Focauld, Sophie, and Den were being pulled up by the electric rope and into the Jet. Dante grabbed my hand once I was close enough and Den was safely inside since he was the last one besides Cherit and I who wasn't in the Jet.

The door was shut once Cherit and I were inside before Dante put an arm around my waist again kissing my forehead, I'm going to have to ask him what that dream he can't seem to tell me was about because it's starting to effect his sleep. I heard Dante say that we're just getting started once we saw Sophie's upset look at not being able to fight beside her family.

I asked what the plan was before he told us that we're going to directly confront the Huntik Foundation Council which worried me because that doesn't mean she'll get to do what she wishes.
