Chapter 7
Martin took the liberty of opening door number two. In this room was an alter and a tone of people were out cold before it.
"My little pet is back," Jeviono said with a cackle. "At the perfect time too. Not many come out on boats anymore...I wonder why?" Her black hair flew in front of her.
"I'm sorry...did I forget to mention I don't want to be your little puppet!" Martin snapped at her.
"Now now, one shouldn't talk back to his master should he?" with one wave of her finger Martin was on the ground withering in pain. "That's better, now I wouldn't want you to get all rebelous on me would I?" She smirked and watched Martin, remarkably stand. He was panting heavily.
"Are you okay?" Diana asked worriedly. She helped support him. "Why did you do that?!" She asked angrily.
"I don't need my handsome little pet to talk back to me. It will only make the monster like that and make him go on a wild rampage," she replied and with another wave of her finger and Martin was screaming in pain once again.
"Try me..." Martin panted.
"Okay. I will!" She waved her finger all over in the air but Martin didn't scream, he wouldn't let her win. Angel watched from just outside the room. She wanted to be the person suffering, she had felt it before but she couldn't let her true identity be known just yet.
Eye Cutter selected... Martin charged at Jeviono with the eye cutter ignoring the pain raging in his body. He jumped with the leverage of a strange golden table and aimed the eye cutter at her. She caught him by the wrist. No screams came from him. He only gritted his teeth and tried to swipe at her. She knocked the eye cutter out of his hand and let it fall to the floor.
Diana rushed to the sword like object and did what Martin didn't, cutting off Jeviono's hand. Martin felt air rush past his face and the strong arms of Java catch him. He woke up from his daze if that's what you could call it in two minutes or so.
"Thanks for the catch Java," Martin said gratefully in a raspy voice.
"No problem," Java put Martin down, "Martin friend."
"How sweet, now how do we deal with her?" Diana asked refering to Jeviono.
"I don't know," Martin sighed, "Let's just get out of here so we can make a plan." Diana threw a smoke bomb from her pocket and they made their way to safety for now. Angel followed them silently.
------------------------------------------------------
They found a room and sat down. Martin was actually lying down.
"I'll check the legend dex about Jeviono," Martin pressed a couple of buttons on the watch and...
Legend Dex selected...
"What does it say Martin?" Diana asked looking at the screen.
"It's hard to read, it's all blurry," Martin sighed.
"No it's not! It's perfectly clear! I'll read it," Diana looked at the screen, "It says here that Jeviono was a woman who lost her best friend. She was from the middle ages. Her friend was close to death when Jeviono thought of a plan to heal her friend. She walked to a well which used to occupy this lake. The monster that came out said if she found a vessel for it, it would save her friend. Alexandra got her best friend to go to the well. The monster placed an insignia over her friend's heart and it entered her. The friend ended up losing her soul to the monster and it cast a spell on the well so it would never have to be sealed in there again. Alexandra offered to guard the monster and help it to get a host every few years. She died along with the monster but when the time comes for it to find a host there are certain requirements it needs. Ruby coloured eyes, blonde or red hair and a strong spirit." Diana concluded.
"Just like Katie..." Martin moaned sadly.
'Just like me...' Angel moaned.
"What do we do now? I'm confused about this whole thing," Diana complained, "Aparently Jeviono was sealed away last time but this time she must be killed. We have to destroy her charm on her necklace to kill her."
"Let's do it!" Angel walked into the room.
"What are you-Angel!" Diana screamed.
"Sorry, I hate to say it, but you guys need help. Let me help," Angel stated with strong confidence.
"Angel I'm sorry but you can't," Martin spoke in a wavering voice, "It's too dangerous."
"Why would it be too dangerous? You weren't handling the situation any better!" Angel steamed angrily.
"What?! How do you know about that?" Diana stammered.
"Java want to know too," Java walked toward Angel.
"You said to hide, but you didn't say where to hide," Angel smirked knowing she had won the arguement.
"Angel...I...I don't want to see you hurt, to lose you again..."
"Martin?!" Diana looked at her step-brother in shock, "This isn't Katie! At least I don't think it is."
"Then your fooling yourself sis. I've known it's Katie all along...I may act like an idiot some times but that doesn't mean I don't have brains." Martin stood up gripping the wall.
"You're right. I'm sorry I kept it hidden sooner but I need to stop her. I won't let her take another. This body is temporary, a created body. Martin, Diana, I wish I could have protected you from becoming agents but I met with that fate. Now you're agents and Martin's a target. I failed you two."
"Katie if we hadn't become agents we never would have met Java," Diana told her.
"You'll have to tell me how you met him. Anyway...we should get going. Jeviono isn't going to kill herself is she?" Angel or should I say Katie said. Diana and Java helped support Martin.
Once in the alter room they found the Dark Lady gone for now. They hid Martin and searched for clues. Half an hour into it they heard a cackling. Diana went to check on Martin.
"HE'S GONE!" She exclaimed.
"WHAT?!"
Well hows that for a cliffy? Anyway...enjoy.
