Chapter 6
Research
She was walking in the desert and felt like she couldn't stand it anymore. She tried to look around but she couldn't...something didn't allow her to. She kept on walking when she saw Putai,the shaman that saved her in Egypt back in 1999...So many years...and she looked the same...
"Putai how did I came here...How can you be here?" Lara asked curious. She wanted to run and hug her but she fell on the ground.
"Lara you can't come any closer but you have to listen to me. I'm here to help..."Putai said quickly and looked in Lara's eyes. Lara had missed that look. That shaman always looked at Lara with such love...
"Why can't I come closer?How can you help?"Lara asked again so curious that she almost felt like a child.
"You can't come any closer because I'm dead Lara my child...I came here to say to you what you must look for... " She said and stepped closer to Lara...Lara's eyes widened when she saw how much blood was on Putai's clothes...
"What happened to you?"Lara asked again...
Putai didn't answer and she didn't really want to say to Lara what happened...so she just kept on talking on the previous theme...
"You MUST search on Elohims ...That's when you will understand what the real Nephelims are...now go my child our time has ended..." she said as she started fading away.
"Putai wait..."Lara got to her feet and started walking towards Putai when she heard her voice drifting away...
"He loves you Lara..."
"What?Who loves me?"she asked as she started running...She didn't know why she just ran...
"Kurtis..."Putai said as she disappeared
Lara opened her eyes and looked around. It was still dark and she couldn't see anything. She turned around and looked at the clock on the table next to her bed.
"Six in the morning...well that's nice"she murmured as she got out of her bed and walked towards the huge bathroom. She stepped in it and looked at the mirror. She was tired...She actually looked like a dead man walking around...What an irony...she killed such things and now she was becoming one because she couldn't get enough sleep. Her thoughts went back some hours. When she kissed Kurtis she felt different,like nothing mattered,like everything was okay...But nothing was okay.
Nothing is okay. A damn Nephelim is after me and that bitch sends mercenaries in my house. She took her clothes off and stepped in the big shower. The water was very warm and she enjoyed the feeling of it...She always thought that the warm water melts away her concerns and calms her down. When she finished she ran out of the bathroom and in her big wardrobe. She put on her underwear quickly and then her jeans and a plain white T-Shirt. She didn't really cared about wearing shoes so she just walked barefoot. She got in the hallway and walked slowly on the tip of her toes. The others wouldn't appreciate it very much if they woke up in such an hour. Then curiosity hit her as she remembered Putai's words. "You MUST search on Elohims...That's when you will understand what the real Nephelims are..." her voice echoed in Lara's mind and then she remembered another sentence of their small "chat" "He loves you Lara..."
"Lara you need to research. It's not time for love right now..." Lara quickly thought as she got right outside Kurtis room. She stopped and looked at the door. She could get in see him sleep as he did with her and then go,but something was stopping her...what if he woke up while she was in there?
"Pfffft to hell I'm going in, I don't care if he wakes up or not." She thought as she opened the door and got in. His room was smaller but it was as nice as hers. She looked in the room and saw things on the couch. Books to be exact. "I didn't know he read books. He doesn't look like that..." She walked towards his bed and stopped. She didn't want to wake him up so she just stood there looking at him. His was peaceful and he looked like an angel. Loose strands of hair fell in his eyes and he was sleeping on his stomach. That's when she notice the big tattoo on his back. She saw it when she took care of his cut but never really looked what it was. She stepped closer in order to see better and realized that there were two tattoos. Two big and beautiful wings starting from his upper back , finishing at his lower. They looked very realistic."That must have been painful..." She thought while looking at his back. Then after a minute she found herself walking towards the door and heading out of Kurtis room. She had to do research on the Elohim but she didn't know what that thing was.
3 hours later...
"Nothing,nothing ohhh look NOTHING" she sighted she didn't expect that it would be so difficult to find something about the Elohim...She always find something. Her eyes fell on some Greek books. She quickly crossed the distance between her and the bookcase and grabbed a book. She smiled widely when she realized that there was the word Elohim with golden letters on it. She opened it and started reading.
"The whole world is ruled by the God and his servants. His servants were called Elohim and were human-like creatures. They were the first creatures,along with the Sky and the Earth,to be created by God. They were connected to each other and each one of them had its name. It was said that people also called them "The Servants of Light".When they saw the daughters of man they wanted to have them and they got with them,without permission from God."
Lara stopped reading. So the fallen ones were not angels but Elohim...she thought to herself continuing with the book.
"The Elohim had children with the daughters of man. These kids were the Nephelims, awful monsters with no fillings. They were eating humans if they were not pleased with things humans gave them."
"I can imagine Karel eating someone...though it's gross but anyway..."she whispered to herself as the book she held fell from her hand and fell open on another page. This page was saying more about the Elohim.
"The leader of the 201 Elohim was Semiazas .But they couldn't stay together so they split up in small groups with leaders .Their leaders where : Arathak ,Kimbra , Sampsani , Danael , Samiel ,Ioamiel , Hohariel , Ezekiel , Batriel , Sathiel , Atriel , Tamiel , Barakiel , Ananthia , Thoniel , Ramiel , Aseal , Rakiel, and Touriel. Each one them controlled 10 Elohim .All the Elohim taught something new at the humans. Azael though was the one who taught people how to make guns and use them,How to make jewelry and so on." she read out loud in Greek. She heard the door and looked up to see Kurtis standing at the door.
"Don't you think is a bit early to study books?It's only 10 in the morning..."He said as he made his way in the library and sat next to Lara.
"Well we must do some research if we want to kill Karel. I found some interesting things in here...but they are in Greek." She told him and he took the book away from her hand opened it and read the same things Lara was reading a few minutes ago.
"Indeed interesting..."he said when he handed her the book back. She looked him surprised.
"You know Greek? " She asked him while getting up and walking back at the bookcase to get the other 2 books she saw.
"Yeah, it's a nice language,it's just a bit difficult..."He said and got up getting closer to her. When she turned around she almost bumped into him. She hadn't seen him getting so close.
"Sorry..." she whispered and tried to get pass him but he didn't allow her to.
"What? " Lara asked a bit irritated now. She didn't do anything wrong...Did she?
He took the books away from her hands and placed them on the desk,then he looked at her. Her eyes were killing him. He wanted to get lost in her soul and stay there for ever.
"I know you got in my room..."he slowly said to her as he leaned closer to her.
"Is that bad? " She asked back while she tried to pull herself together. She was giving in like last night.
"No,not at all..."He said as he kissed her neck. She lost her senses and began losing her mind. The stronger part of her mind was saying to her to pull back take the books and leave, but the other part said a different story. She just wanted to hug him and stay in his arms for ever. And then she heard a knock on the door...
"There is a God..." She thought and they both got away from each other. Kurtis returned at the desk and took the books in his hands. Lara was already at the library's door talking with Zip.
"Zip do me a favor...I want you to search everything about the Elohim and Nephelim. Can you do that?"She asked as quickly as possible.
"Sure girl no problem...If I find anything I'll let ya know..." he said and left for the Tech room .
"Are you going to read all these books alone? " She asked looking at Kurtis now.
"Well why not?It's going to be fun..." he answered to her a mischievous smile appearing on his face.
"Then you'll need help. Two pairs of eyes are better than one..." Lara said and she saw a huge smile getting all over his face.
Later the same day...
"Ohhh come on... Nothing exist in these books...The only thing we are given is what they were and their history...Pfffft"Lara said as she left the book fall from her hands. They were searching for hours without result and she became frustrated. Kurtis took her hand and looked at her. He wanted to make her feel happy but didn't know how.
"Lara relax. We will find something..."He finally whispered in her ear and then they both raised their head as they heard Zip yelling from the Tech room. Lara and Kurtis quickly ran downstairs and got in the Tech room.
"What is it?" Lara asked out of breath...She sat down on the floor and Kurtis followed her.
"Okay I have bad news and good news. What do ya want to hear first?" he asked as he stopped writing on his computer.
"Good news first please..."Lara and Kurtis said together...
"Okay good news Is that I found the only way to destroy a Nephelim...You guys need to find three shards...and something called The Sanglyph "He said and looked at them. Their eyes became dark as they looked at each other...They needed the Periapt Shards and the Sanglyph...That was not good...Lara left them behind in the Strahov...The day she destroyed the Sleeper, all she wanted was all this Nephelim issue to get finished so she didn't really believe what she heard.
"Tell me you didn't left them in there when the explosion occurred..." Kurtis begged her as he understood what she had in her mind...
"I'm sorry Kurt...I left them behind...all of them..."She apologized when she saw the look on his face...
"Uuum so two good news for you guys...The shards were found in the Strahov and police took them to a museum...The Sanglyph too..."Zip finally said . Lara's face became cheerful, a smile appeared on her face.
"Great...So Zip you know what to do..."She said as she got out of the room leaving for her bedroom.
"Two tickets for Prague then?" he asked curious. Lara usually worked alone so he had to ask if Kurtis was going with her but not directly.
"Of course! Thank you Zip you are a star..." She shouted at him as she went up to prepare. A long journey awaited them.
