Chapter 12: The Note
BANG
Waking up, Isaac jumped up from his bed, drenched his own sweat. Looking around his room he realized it was pitch black, there was nothing there to wake him up. He didn't see anything in his room. Panting heavily Isaac recovered from his dream, reassuring himself that it was all a dream, none of the images he saw was true. He was not a Jupiter Adept so he couldn't be predicting the future; he was just nervous about this whole ordeal.
"It was all a dream. Mia is fine. Everything will be fine soon enough." Isaac sat up on his bed, resting his elbows against his knees, resting his head on the palms of his hands. He stared off in the pitch black, looking at nothing in particular. Reaching his hand over to a candle, he lit it aflame, giving the room some light. There was nothing in his room like he had suspected, but what was that noise?
Feeling the cold sweat that drenched his clothes feel up against his skin gave him a cold chill up his spine. He got up from his bed and went over to the dresser, changing into a different pair of clothes.
"Have you done all according to plan?" With a smirk on his face Saturos said this to his fellow companion, Alex. His palm showing, holding the two jewels made out of the raw element of Venus and Jupiter. He looked at them with a sparkle in his eyes, being amazed by their beauty, and yet their power. Flames from the fire flickered, making a cackling noise. Ashes formed a ring around the flames, like it was a moat protecting a castle. Around the fire sat Menardi, Alex, Felix, and Saturos. In tents near the fire were Garet and Ivan who were making sure the two didn't try to escape accompanying the two being held kidnapped, Kraden and Jenna.
"Of course, Saturos. Soon we will be done with all these adepts, chasing us around." Alex responded in his usual smooth and sly voice.
"Good. The Mars Star will be ours. The adepts will be get rid of. We can do what we want freely and complete any thing that we want."
'And once the Stone of Sages is formed, I will be the one who is granted that power.' Alex thought to himself thinking of the thought that all of the beacons will be lit. He smiled to himself, thinking what he can do with a limitless amount of power, how everyone will bow to his name.
Now being fully awake, most of his energy resorted and his wounds healed thanks to Mia and his body having a chance to relax, Isaac decided he should now find out how to solve the current predicament that he was in. Most of his psynergy was resorted, but not all of it, despite him feeling so much better; he only got a few hours of sleep. It was the middle of the night, the darkest hour outside. With his hand extended out over his other arm, a golden glow began to surround his hand. The healing power of Earth mended a large gash that was once there, now being completely healed.
"Might as well get a snack." Isaac said to himself lowly out loud as he began to walk outside of his room. He noticed something that was on the door. It was a white sheet of paper, full of words, rather instructions that was nailed to the door. The loud noise was the person nailing this piece of paper to the door? He ripped it off from the door and began to read what it said:
Isaac, I am going to make this short and quick. You have something, which I need to accomplish my current task, and we have some people that you prize dearly. Meet us at the entrance of the city before dawn, and we will make an exchange your friends for the Mars Star. Fail to reach us by dawn and you will lose everything, your friends will be killed (as they are no use to us. Well maybe the wind adept for the Jupiter Lighthouse) and if you decide to chase us all the way to the Venus Beacon we will just take your life away and take the Mars Star. I hope you know what you want in life, to live with regret as you had killed your best friends, or try to be a hero, which you can never be.
From, Saturos.
Growling, as Isaac read the letter, he released his anger by hitting the door. He got himself stuck in this situation and now he had to make a choice To do what the wise one says or to save his friends who risked their lives by helping him on this journey.
Reading the note over again, Isaac made a weak smile. He had realized something, "Mia has the Mars Star. I gave it to her. They do not have her. At least she is safe. I must save my other friends though, even if that means I lose my own life. It is my fault that they are in that situation in the first place, I do not want to be the one who decides their fate." Isaac said to himself out loud and knew what he had to do. He had to fight Saturos and Menardi for his friends' freedom.
Going back to his room, Isaac immediately began to put on his armor. He took his long sword and withdrew it from its stealth. He looked as the moon gave off its radiant rays, which danced off the tip of the blade. "It is now time to end all of this. Saturos and Menardi must be defeated. Who are they to think that they can release all this chaos upon the world? No one could stop them except for myself, which I plan to do now." He said this boldly as he stared at the shining blade, he looked at his cold glare in the swords reflection."
Isaac walked out of the inn and began walking to the entrance of the city, noticing that no one was on the streets and there was not a single sign of life. The street lanterns, which bordered the street lines, barely provided light with the tiny flames growing inside of the encasing glass. In the distance, by the gates was a small fire with two figures standing next to them, Saturos and Menardi. Isaac walked up to them, his sweaty hands wrapped around the grip of his sword.
