Chapter 35:
-Voices-
He bent over the sink and with some full hands with water he washed the sweat away from the face and refreshed itself on that occasion. He took the towel on the right side, then, he looked a while at himself in the mirror, what he never did. Suddenly, he heard whispering, and thought that Zed and Caleb were back again, but as he went in the living room and looked everywhere...there was nothing, however the whispering continued and it drove him nearly crazy.
"Stop it!" he screamed. "Stop it!"
He sat down on the sofa, his head between his hands and he closed the eyes. As the confusion of whispering had stopped, so he thought, they were again daydreams or memories, but there he had been thoroughly mistaken, because those were real...now and here presently. Does he now becoming crazy also like Alexander at that time? Was it all only a misunderstanding and he wasn't the prophesied? Then suddenly, only a single voice spoke to him.
"Be greeted, Michael Corvinus, single inherits of Alexander Corvinus."
"What do you want? Who are you?"
"We are the guards of the underworld and we seek for the one, that can bring the balance in the human world, the so-called master of the underworld, therefore he's capable to detain dying on grounds or if it's necessary to accelerate it."
"And you think that I'm the one?"
"You proved yourself that you are competent for too much. You showed pity and remorse also like coolness and hate, consideration and leniency. All is in the balance within you."
"Maybe since a few days." Michael growled angrily. "Some years ago, I was total fluctuating and killed innocent without knowing it. Do you call this approximately balance?"
"We know how furious you are, and we must apologize for it that we had to put you to the test about to be certain, that it's you."
"Well great, then all was planned or what!"
"Yes. The beast in you had to be awakened and nevertheless it didn't win the upper hand over your human half what's remarkable. Alexander had failed there."
"I almost would have killed the one I love, what's already remarkable about it."
"We're sorry to hear this. Through the distortion of Alexander's body, you have completed yourself and are invincible. Kill Taylor Corvinus and begin a new generation and begin a new life for you, you earned it for yourself. I hope we will meet us again. Farwell!"
"If you contact me the next tie somewhat differently, then, I welcome you. Farwell."
Selene could hear voices and was somewhat concerned. she lent a T-shirt from Michael and joined Michael in the living room.
"Everything all right? I heard you talking...are the Lycans approximately already back?"
"No, I was only talking to myself."
"However, that was a serious one."
"The so-called guards of the underworld contacted me. Don't ask me any further as I tell you. I was tested and I passed...I lucky fellow
"Then you are... this chosen one."
"Jap and I have to kill Taylor, I don't have any choice and I intend ed it anyway."
"And what then?"
Michael embraced her and kissed her.
