Chapter 12: Saving Randy
A black rattlesnake is screaming in pain and agony, as he is being burn alive by fire. Standing in front of the fire, Azazel watch in amusement, smirking in satisfaction. His ice blue eyes stare at Nukpana's face, watching it turn from pain to agony to pure torture in a matter of seconds.
He chuckles evilly before walking towards the fire, knowing his flames won't hurt him "having fun, Nukpana?" The snake glare at the demon "does it hurt? Can you feel your scales melting off of you?"
"Fuck you." Azazel tsked.
"Now Nukpana that's not very nice."
"I don't care, Azazel. I just want you to die." Nukpana hiss angrily.
"Except you're going to die, my little snake." Azazel grins showing his fangs, as Nukpana glare at him. He couldn't believe that this is happening, Azazel was suppose to die not him but because of his cockiness, he's the one who end up dying. He flinch in pain, as his energy slowly diminish.
Azazel continue to watch in amusement. He can see the life in his eyes fading away, knowing at this rate he won't last any longer "well Nukpana, I hope you perish and turn into dust. It will be a shame if you live through this, you know." He smirk, ignoring the snake's hot glare "well then my devilish reptile, I bid you adieu." Azazel steps out from his flames and flap his wings before he starts flying.
Before he left, Azazel grins "Rest in Peace, bitch." He laughs as he disappear into thin air. Nukpana hiss in agony, falling on the ground, waiting for his torment to end. Right when his life about to vanish, the flames had evaporated, leaving a scorch up snake. Nukpana lie down, as he listen to footsteps coming towards him.
Who had save him from his endless torture of suffering?
"You poor thing." Nukpana looks up to see a man with black hair and cyan eyes. He's wearing a black shawl over his torso, black pants and geta shoes with red straps. A yellow pearls is around his neck, giving off some strange aura. He smile sadly at him "here let me help you." The man spoke in some language before putting his hand on the snake's head. Nukpana watch the man for a few seconds but before he open his mouth, white energy flow into him, healing his wounds and injuries.
The man pull back his hand and smiled "there all better, my friend." The snake lift himself up, feeling energized. He smile in gratitude before leaning to his savior and nuzzling his face "hahaha stop that."
Nukpana lean back and grins "I'm sorry it just...I didn't expected to be save from a human." The man raise an eyebrow.
"Really? So you're no ordinary snake?" He receive a nod "then what are you?"
"Let's just say I'm special." Nukpana answered. He tilt his head "by the way, Stranger? What's your name? And why did you save me?"
The man chuckle "the name's Simone and the reason I save you is because I need your help."
"For what?" Simone grin mischievously, staring at his new companion.
"Nothing special. Just a little fun along someone I cared about."
Azazel woke up, sitting up before putting his hand on his head "ow what hit me?"
"Azazel!"
"Huh?" He look up to see his brothers running towards him with Howard behind them "Jinn! Malphas! Howard! Are you okay?"
"Yeah we're okay." Jinn said, stopping in front of his brother. Azazel look around, seeing monsters wrecking the school.
"What the hell happen here?"
"While you and Cunningham was fighting that giant snake, everyone including us was trap inside the school before turning into monsters." Howard said.
"Wait what!?" Azazel asks.
"It's true. Some green smoke appear out of nowhere and turn every students into this." Jinn points at the students before looking at Azazel "and we don't know where it came from."
"Where's Theresa?" Azazel said when he realize his adorable friend ain't with them. Malphas and Jinn look away, nervously.
"Fowler was turn into one of them."
"What?!" Suddenly, he was grab by a green tentacle and being pulled by a green plant-like monster. He glare before his eyes widen in shock "Theresa?!"
A stank Theresa roars before throwing him away. Azazel hits against a tree, groaning in pain "okay this wonks." He shook his head before looking at the others "you guys find some place safe while I take care of this."
"But where's Cunningham?"
"The snake took him away and don't ask me why because I don't know." Azazel stood up, taking out his twin sword "just go hide." The boys nod before running away from the chaos. After making sure they're gone, he turn his head to see Theresa coming towards him "I don't know who did this to you...but when I do that person is gonna pay."
Theresa roars "oh yeah that person will definitely pay." Azazel ran to Theresa and hoping that he can turn her back to normal.
Somewhere, far away from the school, Simone is preparing for a spell while Nukpana is watching the sleeping Randy "you're sure about this, master?"
"Yes my pet. This spell will help us figure it out how many days it will take for his powers to reach its peak." He finish drawing the circle, throwing the stick away before taking out five black candles. Nukpana look at his master before speaking.
"Not that I'm doubting you, master but what if...what if he's not the one?" Simone stop for a moment, listening to his pet "I mean...sure Randy is her grandson...but what if...his powers doesn't kick in? It will all be for naught." Simone hums. He got to agree with him, he don't know if his powers will shine through.
He only knows that it started awakening and that this spell can help him see how long til his powers show itself. He sigh before going back to work "you are right, Nukpana but it won't hurt to try." The snake nod his head, slithering around Randy, and protecting him from any intruders. Unknown to him, Simone saw the whole thing, smiling sincerely "and they said snakes ain't loveable."
Azazel was slam onto the ground, as Theresa stood above him "Theresa snap out of it. This isn't you." Theresa growls before pulling him to her face "please Theresa...wake up...please."
Theresa stare at him before a frown appears "Azazel...is...that...you?"
Azazel gasp "yes its me, the one who you call brother." Theresa sniff him before smiling.
"Brother."
"Oh thank god you remember." Suddenly, Theresa frown.
"Help...me."
"Who did this to you, sweetie?" Theresa bow her head "sweetheart...who did this?"
"Don't know...too scared...giant snake."
"I know sweetie." He put his hand on her face, frowning behind his mask "but the snake is gone." Theresa shook her head.
"Snake...still here...not gone." Azazel raise an eyebrow.
"What do you mean?" Before she spoke, another monster attack Theresa making her drop Azazel, who landed on his feet. His eyes widen, seeing a blue spider-like monster, attacking Theresa like she's the enemy. Theresa try to kick him off of her but the monster growls at her, pick her up and throw her away. Azazel gasp before glaring at the spider "how dare you hurt her." The monster roars at him before Theresa grab the monster with her tentacles.
"Don't hurt Azazel, Julian." Julian?! The goth kid in the school! He became a monster. Julian pull Theresa to him and to his face before speaking.
"He's working for the snake."
"No he's not." Julian growls angrily before taking the tentacles off of him and throwing Theresa away.
"Hey Julian." Julian turn his head to Azazel "you got some nerves of hitting her."
"Snake."
"Sorry dude no snake here."
"LIES." Julian ran towards him in furious anger before attacking him. Azazel dodge his attack, as he pull out some balls.
"Ninja Tripping Balls." Small balls fell on the ground as Julian ran towards him before he trip and fall on the ground. Azazel chuckle "okay that was funny." Julian growls, glaring at the ninja. As Azazel laugh, sticky web was shot at him "oh snap." He said, dodging every web before he was caught in one "are you serious?"
Julian laughs, standing up and walking to him "any last words, ninja?"
"Yeah two words exactly. This sucks." Julian raise his claws, ready to destroy him before he was suddenly hit by a tree thus, sending him flying across the field. He then was collide against the ground causing him to hit his head and knocking him unconscious.
Azazel blink before he was set free from his confinement "what the juice?" He turn his head to see Theresa, holding a tree "okay remind me not to get you angry." She threw away the tree before speaking.
"Snake."
"Okay sweetheart there's no snake." When he receive a no, Azazel growls "what do you mean no."
"Snake is still here."
"But where?" Theresa point at the swamp with her plant finger.
"Over there...in the swamp."
"It's in the swamp?" Theresa nod.
"It took Randy." When the name came out of her mouth, Azazel's eyes widen.
"I'm sorry? It took who again?"
"Randy...it took Randy in the swamp." She frown "he was being carried away by the cloak man." Azazel stare at her for a few minute before bowing his head "brother?" Was it something she said? She never seen Azazel like this. Before she spoke, Azazel lift up his head and frown behind his mask.
"Theresa, we're going snake hunting."
After lighting up the candles, Simone stood up, put out the flames and smile "okay Nukpana, hand him here." Nukpana nod, unwrapping himself and look at Randy making sure there's no injuries before handing him to his master. "Thank you my pet." Simone put Randy in the middle of the star before taking out a small bag. He dig inside, took out some magic dust and sprinkle them on the sleeping ninja.
After he's done, he put the bag away and smile "you said the sleeping gas will last until two hours right?"
"Yes but for Azazel...it's two minutes." Nukpana answered. Simone hum before putting his hands together and closing his eyes.
"Let the ritual begins."
"Hurry Theresa." Azazel is running next Theresa, who is showing him the way. They stop when they see two path "which way they go, Theresa?"
"I don't know?" Azazel groans.
"Great." Suddenly, a particular smell hits his nose. He sniff the air, following the scent before looking at Theresa "sweetheart."
"Yes."
"Do you have something on you right now?" Theresa tilt her head before taking out a red fabric.
"It was on the fence." Azazel took the fabric and sniff it. As he sniff, a tingling feeling appears in his chest. The smell...it smell heavenly like a sweet tingling fragrance. It had that honey smell but its not honey. It smell like apricot blossoms flying in a warm summer breeze. He smile behind his mask before putting it away
"Thank you." He sniff the air before pointing at the path on the left "they went that way. Come on, let's save Randy." They ran in that direction, hoping they save Randy on time.
"O' spiritus, ostende me eius potestatem." Simone chant, speaking in Latin. As he chant the words, Randy's body begin to glow with bright red aura around him. He groan, slightly in pain as the flames on the candles grew bigger before flying in a circle above Randy.
As more flames gathered in a circle, the bigger it gets until it look like a miniature sun. Simone continue to chant while Randy twist and turn before a loud scream escaped from his lips.
Meanwhile, somewhere in the swamp, Azazel and Theresa stop when they heard a scream "is that Randy?" Suddenly, Theresa began to groan in pain making him turn around "Theresa are you okay?" Theresa smile sadly at him.
"Sorry...brother." She said before roaring at him. Azazel back away from her before he dodge her arms.
"Sweetie calm down." He dodge another attack "snap out of it." He duck under her arm "I don't want to hurt you." Theresa ignores his plea before grabbing him and slamming him against the tree. Azazel struggle against her vice grip, as she walk to him and growl in his face "it seems you lost your sense of sanity." She roars in his face, approving his suspicion "I'm sorry, Theresa but you leave no choice."
Azazel close his eyes "I didn't want to use this but...it's for your own good." Theresa roars, pulling back her arm but before she can hit him, Azazel open his eyes. When she look at his eyes, Theresa suddenly scream in pain, dropping him and clutching her head. She whimpers in agony "I'm sorry." Suddenly, everything became black as she fall unconscious. Azazel sighs as his eyes went back to normal. This is why he never want to use it in the first place, one look into his eyes then his victims starts to scream in pain.
His kind can only use that ability for emergency only, seeing how dangerous it can be to mortals. It kinda like what animals have... what it called again? Oh yeah defense mechanism. Azazel chuckle under his breath before looking at Theresa, who is unconscious. Since he only use a little bit and guessing she won't have any nightmares, he will say... she'll be out for five minutes. He nod his head before he jump in fright when another scream was heard.
"Hold on, Randy. I'm coming to save you." He whispers before running into the direction of the scream.
Randy scream from the top of his lungs, as the bright red aura seep out from his body and floats to the miniature sun. When it got close, the sun absorbs it into itself before suddenly, an image appears in the sun. Simone and Nukpana stare at the image in disbelief "holy shit."
Inside the ball, pieces of pavement is floating around in the air, trees are being destroyed, the sky is pitch black with a hint of red, a huge hurricane is shown in the background. As they watch, more images are shown in the ball. The citizens of Norrisville have glowing silvery blue eyes and essence of their energy is seeping out of their body. Soon the image shows a figure with sapphire blue eyes and long tyrian purple hair with deep pink streak down the middle.
"Yes yes yes." Simone grins "this is it, Nukpana. He's the one who will destroy this miserable planet."
"You're right master. He is the chosen one." Nukpana said as Simone chuckle evilly.
"Yes now to figure out the day of his destruction." Simone raise his hand and spoke in Latin "O' spiritus, ostende me quod prophetiae, ostende me quod excitatio." Randy's eyes snap open as another scream tore from his throat. His eyes began to glow silvery blue as the ball shows a different image.
It shows a bunch of kids on stage. Some are singing, some are playing their instruments and some are rapping. Suddenly, it shows Randy singing on stage, while everyone cheer for him. When the image disappear, Simone growls under his breath "what is this!? This is not what I ask for."
"But doesn't Randy's kind... you know sing? I mean they sing for adoration." Nukpana flinch when Simone glare at him.
"Yes but I want to see destruction not love." Simone sighs, massaging his temples "this is getting ridiculous."
"Aww bored, Simone?" Simone and Nukpana look up, only to see Azazel on the tree, leaning against it. "If you want destruction I can do it for you." Azazel smirk.
"Why are you here?" Nukpana hiss while Simone glare. Azazel chuckle before jumping down and landing on the grass.
"Let's cut the chit-chat. Hand me Randy or I'll cut you into pieces." As he said, two sais appear in his hands. Simone glare at the demon in disgust. He is not in the mood of fighting him since this spell won't tell him what he need to know. So he had two options in his hand. One he can give him the boy or two he can send his snake to attack. He sigh before making the decision.
"Fine take the boy." He snap his finger making the ball disappear and letting Randy floats down on the ground, gently. Azazel put his weapons away as he walked up to Randy, picking him up in his arms "oh and one more thing." Simone turn his head to his pet "Nukpana dispel the stank off the kids."
"Yes master." Nukpana open his mouth and breath out orange smoke before it shot up in the air, and went to the direction of the kids. After he finish, Nukpana bow his head and smile "done master."
"Good job my pet."
"Wait you turn those kids into monsters?" Azazel said in disbelief. Simone chuckle, petting his snake.
"Oh Azazel, it wasn't me who turn them. It was your old friend."
Azazel gasp, silently "The Sorcerer?" Simone smirk, knowing the look in the demons' eyes "where is he?"
"Tsk tsk my highness." Simone wave a finger "you have to find out for yourself." He smirk smugly when he heard a growl "now if you want to find him, go to your friend. The stank will vanish from their body in one minute... so by the time you get there, she'll be turning back to normal." Azazel glare while holding Randy closer to him.
"I swear Simone if you did anything bad to him..."
"Oh trust me I did no harm to your future mate." Simone chuckle. He pet his snake one more time before black petals surrounded them "until we meet again, demon king. Be prepared for the end of the world." A evil laugh is heard in the wind as they disappear into the air. Azazel sigh, shaking his head before walking to the direction where Theresa's is.
As he walk, Randy is mumbling in his sleep "grandma...don't leave me." Azazel glance down before looking up.
"I don't know who's your grandmother, Randy. But it sound like you really miss her." He stop when he saw Theresa, who is still unconscious, changing back "oh my god Theresa." He put him on the ground before running to her "Theresa are you okay?" He said, sitting up his friend.
Theresa groans, opening her eyes before looking at Azazel "brother...I'm so sorry."
"Hey it's okay." He hug her knowing that she's okay "I'm just glad that you're back." He sniff the air, catching the whiff of the stank before pulling back "c'mon let's head back." Theresa nods as they stand up.
"But what about Randy?"
"Don't worry." He pick up Randy and turn around "I got him." Theresa smile before they began to walk out of the swamp. As they walked, Randy snuggle up against Azazel, smiling. An unknown voice is heard singing in the air but only Randy can hear it.
Sleep my little angel
Sleep til you can dream sweetly
No matter where or how far apart we are
Just always remember, my sweet angel
Follow the lullaby and it will guide you to harmony
A single tear stream down his face which went unnoticed as Randy smile behind his mask "love you grandma Noah."
