Chapter 129 - One Hundred And Twenty-nine : Pandemonium
Sabrina narrated the whole event to Asher and though he was furiously mad at Dan, he had no choice than to see things from his perspective.
Raphael had not given them any peaceful day since his epic appearance, so it wasn't surprising Dan had opt to rescue Gideon and choose to send instead the over enthusiastic Ben on the other task - the guy had a handful of things to do.
Perhaps If Zukai was not out of town hunting down a rogue vampire, he would have been the one to attend to that assignment and the end result would have been a pleasant one.
"But what were you thinking keeping something so dangerous within reaching distance? You practically caused this incidence " Asher scolded her sternly, a furious expression on his face.
But Sabrina's expression was no better, her eyes were blazing with anger " For your information, I kept that mask in my sacred chamber where I could have my eyes on it twenty-four hours a day moreover, I casted an invisibility spell on it which still puzzles me how Ben was able to break through that spell! " She roared back with her fist clenched at the sides.
Asher doubted her claim "Contrary to what you're thinking, perhaps the spell was not strong enough "
Sabrina wanted to retort back but she threw her hands up instead " You know what? I don't have time to quibble and distribute blame with you while that necromancer is out there, probably trying to regain his powers. So you can either help me out here or suck it up "
" Fine then, what do you what me to do " Asher gave in at last with a sigh and raked his hand through his hair .
Sabrina turned towards Lia " First you can start by telling me what is wrong with your mate? "
"I gave her sunshine " He confessed.
"What?! " Sabrina yelled " Have you gone nuts? perhaps you've forgotten she's a hybrid and not a full-fledged vampire "
"I had no choice than to do it besides I thought as a hybrid, her symptom was not going to be as severe as a vampire's but it seems I was totally wrong and this proves she's more in tune with her vampiric side to her wolf side "
Sabrina rolled her eyes exasperated " So in one word, you're trying to say she's of no help to me today "
"As you can see " came his answer "But I would need a bit of a background story before heading out with you so I can know what I'm about to face and probably prepare myself for the worst-case scenario " Asher told her and she acknowledged his request.
"Name is Micheal Lawrence and as you know he's a necromancer who wrecked havoc on several towns until the council sent their finest mage after him.
"But it wasn't that easy to kill such a necromancer because of the very element he manipulates , so they had no choice than to rip his soul out of his body , bind and tethered it to the mask and his body destroyed .
"Thankfully, at the moment he's weakened and would try his best to recuperate in Ben's body before - "
"Going to find his body " Asher interjected.
"Bingo " she grinned at him " But I sure hope tonight is not a full moon "
Asher expression changed " What happens if it's a full moon?"
Sabrina took a deep breath and looked him straight in the eyes saying " His body was destroyed on a full moon so he would need a full moon to reanimate his body but if he doesn't find it on time, he can chose to take over his host's body completely - If it's to his liking - which means Ben is a goner; we need to find him as soon as possible before it gets too late "
"And I'm guessing we have to finish Ben off if such a thing happens " Asher surmised with a disturbed sigh.
Even if he liked that kid, he was just a human whose life was destined to be short unlike his and wouldn't put himself in such danger just to rescue him, but since he is his mate's sidekick and bestie, he has no choice than to dive deep into the fire.
"Once that Necromancer takes over his body, the Ben we know - that idiotic Ben you know - would be gone forever. There's no two ways about it " She stated firmly, hoping he got that information into his head.
"Fine, let's find Ben then " Asher said but asked afterwards " How the hell do we find that boy, I've just realised I know literally nothing about Ben aside from the fact he's abnormal " He told her and she shook her head sympathetically.
"I would have suggested going to Ben's place but Micheal is smart and wouldn't dare cross there ; he knows we are after him.The school would be my next choice but then this place suddenly came to mind.... " she hesitated and Asher's brow rose interestedly.
"A place where Necromancers are gods "
Asher's lips curled up " The cemetery. He's building an army " but the words hardly left his mouth when he felt his phone buzz: the assistant principal Sheila was calling him .
"Hello " he picked up.
"I think you might have to come down to school, there's a lot going down here right now " She responded causing a frown to appear on his face.
"Why? What's going on? "
"Pandemonium "
