AKAYLA
I walked dazedly through the large hallways of the coven. I could barely process what I was feeling as my emotions were in utter unrest and chaos.
How was this possible?
What was I supposed to do at this point?
Should I go on or should I just stop and leave it all to fate?
I could still ear their words ringing in my ears.
Was this a sign?
What did this mean? What path should I chose?
FLASHBACK
I narrated all the events and incidents that occured with Paula as well as my theory expecting a calm response but what they said had shocked the wots out of me.
“Your theory Is not wrong yet it is still wrong. We knew that this day would come eventually but it is still terrifying to say the least.” One of the elder said with a frightened expression on her face.
“What do you mean by that elder? What day has come? What is so terrifying that have even the elders of the coven shook to their core?” I had Inquired while watching as they looked amongst each other as if they were deliberating if to tell me or not.
“Uhmm…..Akayla….. You see, we have always known that Paula’s powers would start manifesting one day.” said the Elder that spoke previously.
“What? You knew she was a witch and that her powers would start manifesting? How is that possible? She was not born anywhere near this coven. Wait a minute, does this mean that…..” I bombarded with questions as my mouth fell agape in bewilderment.
“Yes Akayla. We have always been watching you both …… ever since she left out coven. Why do you think we panicked so much when she fell for a man and we did the only thing we could do to make sure that she had no offsprings.” The elder explained and I was beyond shocked.
“What? You took away her powers not to save her from that cheater but to make sure he loses interest in her and she bears no offsprings? Why would you do such an evil thing? Why are you guys so evil and uncaring towards someone who is a part of us did everything you could to stop her from giving birth?” I screamed at them, completely enraged at the fact that they watched her suffer and didn’t bother to do anything to help her.
“We had no choice as we had already received a prophecy from one of the witches who could see the future about what the child would be.” The elder asserted looking at me with no remorse of any kind.
“The child had been set to be the next ancient witch.” The elder announced In a foreboding tone while my eyes widened like saucers.
“What? An ancient witch? How is that possible? This must be a mistake!” I stated as I didn’t want to believe that the child…… carried and born by the hands of a human was set to be an ancient Witch.
“It is as true as prophecies in the coven can get. It was not only one witch that had the vision but multiple unrelated witches at different times. That was the reason why we watched ….. and stripped her of her powers. We thought that it would reduce her allure and also prevent her from giving birth to a witch of any sorts.” they explained and I just stared at them totally stumped on how to process such information I just received.
“The plan obviously failed when the rape happened and you stepped in. We were delighted that you didn’t keep the girl and gave her to her father, making the things around her easier to manipulate.” they continued and a pang of guilt seeped through me at the fact that me abandoning Paula was a chance for this evil people to attack.
“We made sure her and her father never developed love for each other by planting a manipulating step mother who tortured her all her life. She didn’t snap under the pressure and think of suicide so we upped our game. When she became of marriageable age, we sensed that she would be mated to the Alpha King and that would be a big hitch in our plans. We noticed that Xayden, the Alpha King’s younger brother hated him and was brutal to the core so we anonymously tipped him that Paula was his brother’s mate and that he should forcefully mate her before his brother does. We told him that stumping his brother’s chance of getting a mate would be the perfect revenge plan.” the elder said as she recounted the terrible things they had done to Paula.
“Listen! Xayden didn’t believe us and went on with his life so we gave up but we’re shocked to see that he still forcefully mated her anyways and took her as his mate. He tortured her for years and abused her thoroughly but she didn’t give in and kept on living. We didn’t want it to span out that long but she was a strong one. She finally snapped one day and was almost gone when Frankie found her. The rest after that is history as we couldn’t harm her when she was by the Alpha King’s side.” The finished their explanation with solemn look on their faces.
“How could you do that? How evil you are to hatch such a diabolical plan for one of your own kind!” I screamed at them, feeling my heart tore I to shreds.
I wondered how much pain, suffering and heartache the child must have gone through without anyone by her side.
“We had to do it as you are aware of what the awakening of an ancient one could do to us. We couldn’t kill her so the next option was to drive her into committing suicide.” they explained trying to justify their actions but I wasn’t having it.
When had the elders become so selfish? Just to save and savor their powers for a longer time, they were willing to drive a poor girl into self destruction and suicide.
“It is not our fault as you know the implications if we allow her to survive till the time she fully awakens her powers. Even you might be affected and you know that well enough.” they asserted.
The implications of an ancient witch awakening.
Of course I was well aware of that but the implications are only dire for the oldies of the coven
You see, an ancient awakens in the body of a witch every ten thousand years and along with them comes great powers.
One might ask how a normal witch suddenly acquired very great powers.
Well it was pretty simple actually.
Once the dormant ancient within them awakens, it sucks the powers from almost half of the witch population in a very random manner.
Yes!
Half of the witches population, no matter where they are at that point in time. Once you are chosen, there is no escape and you will be rendered powerless. The oldies will be rendered powerless and that in turn takes away their immortality and the turn into dust.
The thing is that the ancient in turn, becomes Queen and protects the coven till they die. When the ancient dies, the power segregates and vanishes into the bodies of random newborns and in turn makes them capable of protecting the coven.
When the ancient awakens another ten thousand years later, the same cycle is repeated.
To me, this whole cycle was an endless loop of give and take as the ancient takes the power and gives protection only to give them back when she is leaving and take them back when she comes back.
The powers were hers in the first place as they were where our roots sprung from so I found what the elders were doing pure evil.
“That does not justify your actions as the awakening gives us ultimate power and possible supremacy.” I told them off.
“There are a few things you seemed to have missed Akayla. You are one of the old people so if you are chosen, you will dissappear.” The elder pointed out.
That fact just registered in my head and before I could process it, they dropped another one.
“You also seem to have forgotten that the current proposed is the Alpha King’s Luna. That is already a criteria for her not to edge her allegiance to us and for her to help the werewolves and her mate gain supremacy.” He finished stating his point and that was when I realized that they were right, at least for that fact.
I wasn’t afraid of dying but I was scared that Paula would turn against her kind and help Frankie gain supremacy.
The witch realm deserved it for all they did to her but I still couldn’t abandon my kind and the numerous lives in it, New and Old.
“Think about it and decide if you wanna help your kind or you wanna help the ancient witch.” The elder announced giving me an ultimatum.
“You have three days to decide and within this three days, we shall do nothing to harm the ancient in any way. Please do chose wisely.” They said and I just nodded stupidly before walking out of the meeting room.
BACK TO THE PRESENT
So I was stuck between a rock and a hard place.
I could either help Paula which in turn might possibly help the werewolf realm have an upper hand against our kind or I could help the elders achieve their goals to eradicate an unsuspecting Paula and drive her to suicide, thereby saving our realm and powers.
What should I do?
I sighed and rubbed my forehead as I thought of the storm that was brewing.
“This was going to be one hell of a battle”
NARRATOR
“Mistress, she has seen the elders.” The old woman from before reported.
“What? That was quicker than I expected. It seems that we have to quicken our plans as Akayla is too much of a softie to save us over that child.” The cloaked woman said with with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
“It seems that I have to take matters into my own hands this time. Talia! Get my mirror.” She ordered and soon the old woman had dissapeared and appeared with an ancient mirror.
The cloaked woman looked into the mirror for a few seconds before pulling down the cape of her cloak.
The woman staring back at her in the mirror was someone shocking.
It was an older version of Paula!
The only difference was the eyes that she had.
They were blood red and totally lifeless.
“Talia! I think it’s time I have a reunion with my family, don’t you think?” She asked.
“Yes mistress! I think it is time.”
The woman’s eyes changed from blood red to blue in a matter of minutes.
“Let the games begin!” She said
