THE WAR FOR THE CELESTIAL THRONE CHAPTER 12 PART 1
Morning the next day, Sakai wearing a black shirt with stars and sweat pants seated by the window eating a bowl of cereal staring out the window and he stops eating the serial and sniffs the milk, Sakai "Well it's not the milk, for the third time." As he looks at teens racing riding flying brooms and someone following with a camera behind them. As another person on the other side walking with a woman with her lower half snake like talking to each other and a woman walking a three headed dog almost one meter tall and everyone acting normal.
Sakai still confused by everything turns his head to the neighbor on his right's yard where a woman in a long silverish dress with white hair and greenish blue eyes with a white sun hat holding a watering can watering her flowers turns and sees Sakai through the glass and smiles and also waves at him. Sakai smiles at her and waves back (Well at least not everyone has changed.) and a sudden breeze blows her hat off exposing her white cat ears and as she turns to grab her hat her two cat tails also come into his field of view then she bends to the ground below the fence and Sakai after seeing this, his face changes as he looks at his cereal (THE FUUUCK!)
Sakai "Maybe I missed the memo but since when does outside look like… this everyone is different what are these other races but the aura around them hasn't changed." He continues eating the bowl of cereal as Lezana makes her way down the stairs yawning, Lezana "Good morning, Sakai." Sakai not turning to look at her "Good morning, I tried waking you 10 minutes ago." Lezana stretching "I still have time." As she turns to see there are 15 minutes left for her to go to work and she screams Lezana in a panic "I'm going to be late. I can't be late." As she runs up the stairs so fast that it looks like she teleported as Sakai remains seated facing the window.
Lezana rushes back down fixing her hair with her hands as she looks around, Lezana panicking "Sakai have you seen my bag…for work." Sakai "Kitchen counter." She rushes there and picks it up. Lezana "Laptop?" Sakai "I put it in your work bag with your tablet and presentation papers." Lezana opens the bag happy seeing everything she needs there and closes then proceeds to reach for her keys in her pocket and doesn't feel them on her and starts frantically patting herself down and stops in her tracks on hearing Sakai. Sakai "Your keys are in the first right cabinet of the drawer by the door."
Lezana "Thanks., she rushes over there and back that makes it look she only moved her hand and the keys appeared in her hands, I'll get you one day." As she speeds walks away like a normal person, Sakai "I doubt that." As hears the door to the garage close. Sakai puts the cereal aside "Why is everyone different?" suddenly Lezana is right behind him and lays her hand on his head "How did you miss the change, no matter nothing I can't fix." And Sakai gets frozen in daze as her brown mana enters his head Gemi looking in Sakai's mind a white space with light threads of memories flying around sees a cloud of brown mana entering the space.
Gemi "Shit what's going on?" as he frantically looks around and sees a boy running from the mana cloud, he looks at the threads of memories shaking frantically as they change color from golden to brown to purple and back to gold Gemi horrified "A mental rewrite since when." He's eyes turn back to the boy made of white mana that looks like Sakai and runs at him grabbing him and hiding with him under his cloak that becomes a dome before the mana cloud touches them. Gemi holding the dome up with strain in his voice "She can't rewrite him who knows what she'll learn or do." The mana cloud passes and the dome turns back into his cloak as he stands looking at Sakai's memories looking almost untouched if it wasn't for their brighter glow. He turns to the boy made of white still cowering on the ground and reaches hand out. Gemi with a reassuring tone "It's fine Sakai I got you." The boy made of white takes his hand and he separates Gemini with Minai coming out of him as a dark figure with two moons for eyes and no mouth.
The dark figure laughs at his face hysterically "Brother…I thought you were smarter than this., as the boy lets go of his hand and the white mana covering his body breaks apart, Don't you know Gemi comes with Minai, ROLZZZZZ." Gemi "This shouldn't happen what did you do to me, Grelz." Minai "I did nothing the boy before you tricked you." Gemi's eyes open wide as he now stares at a boy identical to Sakai but with pure white hair and crimson red eyes wearing clothes similar to Sakai that change as Minai's mana enters him into a buttoned black shirt with a deep blue waist coat with the different stages of the moon around it and a deep blue baggy trouser with no shoes and night cap on his head that looks like a void with a moon at the end of it, looks at Gemi with cold eyes.
The boy "You can't move just as my teacher said. Don't feel bad, as he turns away from him and starts walking towards a glowing boy seated slightly above the ground but with a yellowish orange glow, he deserves this for taking my life." Minai fully enters him and his hand glows white as he approaches Sakai's conscious. Gemi panicking (He isn't really going to kill him.) The boy a few meters away from Sakai's conscious , "It's about time that I took the lead."
Gemi suddenly appears behind the boy and grabs his hand the boy glows before falling unconscious and Gemi carries him and a safe door with a sun handle appears and opens to a dark empty place "You won't be unconscious for long but I won't let you hurt my student." He let's go of the boy and he floats inside the room as Minai's shadow comes out of him "Well played."
Gemi stretches as the door disappears (This just keeps getting complicated, what am I going to tell the kid?) Sakai seated holding the cereal bowl feels someone's finger touch his lip and he springs awake only to see Lezana smiling at him lovingly as she wipes his lip, Lezana "You goof don't fall asleep eating." Sakai still confused "…Uuuh, right I'm sorry about that." Lezana comes really close to his face and blows in his face before stepping away "Don't worry I'm your mother after all I'll take care of you." She picks her phone out of her bag and looks at the time before gasping and speed walking away into the garage with her stuff and shortly Sakai hears the garage door open and sees her car rush onto the street and drives off.
Sakai keeps stare at the cereal (Gemi is it poisoned?) Gemi "No… but that's not important right now she just… decrypted your memories?" Sakai (So this is the real world.) before taking a bite of the cereal and gets off the seat by the window and finishes the rest of the cereal in one gulp and walks to the kitchen pulls out his stepping stool from underneath and places it in and washes, dries it then puts it away with the other bowls. He gets of his stepping stool and puts it away, Sakai "They should be here any minute better finish packing up. Gemi is there anything else that happened that I need to know." As he heads up the stairs to his room.
Gemi "No, there's nothing. Relax it's the weekend and you are actually getting a break from her." Sakai (Ok… You are right guessing I can rest since she won't know where I am.) he steps into his room where a bag already packed with his clothes, toothbrush and towel lying on his bed and he turns to his book shelf and starts going through his books and picks one "I wanted to get time to read these poems but the book having them is more known for it's love poems don't want to give the wrong idea. As he looks through, he stops on one and pulls it out surprised Sakai "No, flipping way the latest volume of Arkah mysteries. This came out the day before yesterday when did she…" he walks with the book and packs it in his bag he then changes into some baggy blue jeans and a long-sleeved p orange shirt and heads down with both his school and travel bag.
10 minutes later, A red expensive family car pulls over on the side walk in front of Sakai's house and Liv steps out in a white dress just reaching her knees with a flower design and black thigh height socks in white feminine shoes a silver necklace stands at his door looking around and turns to the car seeing John signaling her to go on. Liv looking down takes a deep breath "Come on you can do it." And she rings the door bell and immediately starts cowering where she stands (Oh my sweet God, what the hell are my going to say to him wait remember the script mama gave you." The door then opens and Sakai carrying his bags as he wears his black sneakers and looks at Liv who is frozen in place holding eye contact.
Sakai (She came to get me and froze.) Liv overly excited inside (What is that hair style he looks so hot with it.) Sakai looks her up and down and her eyes also look him down at the same time and he looks her in eyes surprising her causing her to jolt upwards and blush. Sakai smiles at her "You look great in that dress." Liv's face slowly turning red as she twirls her hair with her finger and looks at the close to him, Liv "Thank you. You look great too." (Don't say much and hold eye contact to not make it painfully obvious that you like him.) Sakai shuts the house door behind him steps really close to her and she freezes up her face bright red, Sakai whispers to her "Nice attempt but I could tell you weren't looking in my eyes. Try again cutie" before stepping back and Liv looking light headed and gasping for air takes a deep breath and looks him in the eye.
Liv steps closer to him and put her finger on him and shouts at him with "Look you are coming with me you snack." Sakai surprised looking at her and Liv grabs his hand and walks with him to the door of the car. Liv standing by the door bows to him suddenly in a sweet tone " Your chariot awaits lovely master." And Sakai blushes at this and she rises seeing his face and grins at him "Looks like I win." She opens the door and stands aside for him and Sakai gets in with out saying a word and Liv follows him in and closes the car door, Liv (I'm supposed to…) blushes before shaking her head to get back her resolve and she extends really close to Sakai and rests her head on his shoulder.
Sakai whispering "Liv…could you get off me." Liv sounding cocking holds his hand as her face is bright red "Why would I do that? Don't tell me you're at your limit." Sakai "Okay I won't but your father is looking at you, directly." Liv pauses her eyes wide open and she gets off Sakai immediately and raises her hands in the air turning to see John not even glancing there and gets confused. Sakai holds her chin with his hand and pulls her in close till their heads touch holding her there before letting go and turns away as Liv is holding her chest. Sakai "As I thought…" not continuing.
Liv curious and flustered "As you thought what? What came to mind?" Sakai turns to her with a cool expression and takes her hand looking her intensely in her eyes, Sakai "That my eyes just can't get enough of you." Liv panting softly and Sakai brushes her hair back and holds her cheek, Sakai whispers to her "Looks I am the actual winner adorable princess." Liv "Huh …I wha…d..d." before losing thought.
John yells at Sakai "Hey that's my little princess back off." Sakai frightened let's go of her and extends away "Sorry, sir won't happen again."(I've never had him so angry) Liv looking at the hand Sakai was just holding and clenches her fist before turning to John angry "No, bad you promised you wouldn't be over protective and scare him like that I thought you were friends." John shocked by her outburst "Well…but…" Liv "Cuts him off "No, buts…father."
John's eyes open in shock "Fff..fa…ther. WHY?" Liv "We agreed at home and now you are going back on your word or do you not trust." John (I mean…I know she can't make a move but…) looks at Sakai who's just blankly watching them "You're right I'll trust you but no flirting. You can talk about anything else." Liv looking at him pouting and with her hands crossed smiles at John, Liv "Fair thank you daddy but I'm not going to call you your preferred title till we get back."
Liv turns to Sakai as John drives off "Sorry about that so if you don't mind me asking what do you find fun you know makes you happy." Sakai stroking his chin "Well that depends on how one may start it, but mine now seems to start with you." As he lays he's finger on her nose and she blushes again getting flustered "Stop we agreed no flirting." Sakai chuckles " You're right. I have fun playing games." Liv takes a deep breath "And what kind of games do you like to play." Sakai "Any games really." Liv comes closer excited "Can I get examples so we can play them together." Sakai pauses for a second before looking her in the eyes in a seductive voice "Then why don't we play house I can be the papa and you the mama and all we'll need is a baby."
Liv blushing "Oh, and…you mean the game." Sakai's voice becomes light all of a sudden "Of course I mean the game." Liv "No more talking about games because it feels like I may not be able to play nice much longer." Sakai seductive again "Oh, I didn't know you liked it rough." Liv's face turns red and she looks at him blankly before taking a deep breath " I…AM changing the subject, if you don't get serious" Sakai " Was that excitement I heard when you said am. Okay I'll take it seriously."
John coldly "Sakai stop banging on the wrong door you may not mean to go that far yet but the owner of the door…"pauses looking at Liv who gets shocked by the look in his eyes "Huh!" John "It's not you Sakai I'm worried of doing something it's the other one, it's just the genes don't over charge her." Sakai "Ok sooo Liv I actually enjoy racing and shooting games." Liv "Is that why you are my making my heart race." In a lewd tone that Sakai has never heard and John pulls over immediately "Sakai I have some Liv videos her mom sent me."
Liv screaming "I'M SORRY DON'T SHOW THOSE PLEASE, DAADDDY." Sakai " I won't fall easily sir." John "Okay I believe you." And he rejoins the road Sakai "So what are your hobbies you never know we may have some in common."
Liv depressed looking down "I like drawing, and reading books." Sakai "Cool I draw too but I'm more of a pencil artist never could work my way through colors and paint though. What do you normally draw or paint." Liv looks at Sakai seeming to still be interested, Liv (You) she blushes and faces him "Mostly human figures, animals and scenery" ending up raising her voice and being stiff.
Liv (Aw man I'm making it coward.) Sakai chuckles lightly "Sorry there's just no dull moment with you is there relax you've got me hooked." Liv turns her head away from him "I thought you wouldn't flirt." Sakai "That's adorable but I meant my attention on this conversation I want to know more about Liv." Liv "And I want to know Sakai, let's do this."
30 minutes later, John's car pulls up to the giant metal gates with a D crest on them. John "Welcome Sakai to the Drac manor." The gates open automatically and car drives into the massive front yard on a paved road going up to the front of the house and surrounded by leveled grass. The car parks in front of the house and Sakai steps out in amazed by the massive mansion with a unique Antebellum architecture spanning over 22000 square feet with a fountain at the front with a flourish design.
Liv steps out of the car with a sad face and closes the door (We start talking and I make it worse how can I say pencil art is minor stuff calling his house small the way I did like some spoiled brat. Then there was my excessive nervous yapping why couldn't I shut the hell up and let him talk.) looks at Sakai as he stares at the mansion in amazement. John steps out of the car, closes the door and double taps the door with the keys in hand and the car drives off on its own to park. Liv "He hates me now doesn't he." And she looks up at John who keeps looking ahead.
John "No, he doesn't, I know him well enough to know when he doesn't like something." Liv immediately lightens up on hearing this "Really, hugs Johns leg, you're the best and coolest papa." John pats her head "Just don't lose focus in school if it works out. I hope you know that even if I'm supporting you to go out with my favorite student don't think I'll ever let you go to his house." Liv let's go of him "Yes, that's fair." John "Well go on." Liv rushes over to Sakai, Liv "Sorry about the car. I was nervous and said some stuff."
Sakai "No worries I figured as much, well are you going to show me around the house." Liv nods excitedly "That I will do. Follow me on nonstop tour of the Drac manor." As she's about to open the door Mary opens it instead right before her as she's dressed in an apron over a black and white loose fitted dress full of energy, Mary "Welcome back you got him quick, nice job." Liv hiding a thumbs up from Sakai "Thank you Mama." Sakai looking at them turns to Mary with a casual wave "Good morning, thank you for having me."
Mary suddenly grabs Sakai and lifts him into a tight hug causing his luggage to fall to the ground with his face buried in her chest, Mary swinging him around as he struggles for air, Mary "GOOD MORNING SAKAI. THE PLEASURE IS ALL MINE." As she faces inside the house away from Liv who starts panicking as she sees Sakai struggling "Mum let him go he can't breathe." Mary playfully "He's fine…" before getting hit in the head by John's hand causing her to fall to her knees and let go of Sakai who starts gasping for air immediately and Liv rushes to him concerned as Mary starts rubbing her head frantically in pain and turns to John angry, Mary "Why did you hit me?" John calmly "You were suffocating him…" grabs her ear and pinches it still holding her Mary "Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!" John let's go "I remember telling you not to hold him like telling you he maybe six but he reasons at the level of some intellectual youths."
Mary "Doesn't mean you to have to hit me…Daddy." Saying it in a lewd tone John actually seeming angry "I thought we agreed you'd behave and stay calm over the weekend as he was here." Mary comes closer to him and leans on his chest with lewd look in her eyes as she holds eye contact with him "I am calm it's just that someone ran off before I woke up, so I n…ah" as John drags her into the house by her hand "Oh what's that you need my help in the kitchen." As Liv and Sakai watch them walk off, Liv "Well it looks like breakfast is going to be late, so let's start with upstairs." Sakai looking at her shocked (She knows what they are going to do.) "Um, sure lead the way."
He grabs his bags and follows right behind her up a fleet of stairs where Liv turns to him extending her hand to him, Liv "Do you need help with your bags." Sakai "No need I can handle them." Liv "Really okay but let's get you to your room first mine." They climb up the stairs, turn left in the hall and walk shortly to a white wooden door into a big room with a full-sized bed with stuffed animals on the bed with a pinkish purple theme with a passive built in closet on a wall opposite to her bed and work table with desktop computer setup and bookshelf. Close to it Sakai impressed by the room's large size.
Elsewhere in the state in a large corporate building in a meeting room with opaque sound proof glass walls and doors sit six men dressed in suits at a long table, Lezana explaining the budget for a new product as a dragon demi human dressed in a fine suit raises his hand in a proud deep but low voice "These numbers are too high can't you lower the budget while maintaining the phone's quality." Lezana in a concerned tone "But sir if we do the phone's quality will lower significantly and probably damage the company name."
A dwarf with a white braided beard speaks up "That's why we hired or did you forget your job is to make sure everything runs exceptionally while costing us near nothing."
Lezana raises her voice "And that's what I've been doing and did please reconsider …" When the dragon hits the table with his fist and yells at her "CORRECTION WE TOLD YOU IN THE PREVIOUS MEETING AND YOU FAILED EVEN NOW." A bearded muscular elf with strands of white hair supplementing "Don't show us predicted profits to justify your short comings and do what you are told." Another dragon chubby supplements with a snarl "Or do you need to experience the consequence of your failure. Deduct her pay maybe that will show her." Another elf and dwarf on the other side of the table laugh at the thought, the beardless long-haired elf in a green suit "And what do you propose we do with the deducted sum we pay her far less than us." As the room laughs as Lezana lowers her head staring at the ground with emotionless eyes as her eyes dilate (I'm surrounded by the greedy…why do I take this shit any more by the way, she raises her head wearing the same unchanged expression as she locks eyes with the dragon at the end of table, I took this job six years ago spear headed it's development for 3 years and these weaklings whose business I grew mock me at least I made them honest of their thoughts but…" as her staring into his enrages him and he shouts at her "HOW DARE YOU STARE AT ME." Lezana closes her eyes and sighs "I'm tired that's one reason I'm looking at you like that child." The dragon angry rises from his seat as she moves towards the chubby dragon close to her and lays her hand on his shoulder and flicks off his head onto the upper corner of the room and it stays there as the others get frozen in fear.
Lezana coldly "Always hated that piece of shit., as she turns to look at the dwarf, BACK to the point I work tirelessly and well but for what this…,she tops at the chubby demi human dragon's bleeding corpse as she stares at the dwarf and she vanishes appearing in front of the other demi human dragon her hand in his chest holding his heart, sassiness to my face." As blood leaks out of his eyes and mouth the first dwarf "Calm down we can forget this and go with your budget." Lezana turns her head to the trembling first elf and dwarf with her psychotic smile "What makes you think I'm not calm." Before crushing his heart and turns to them fully and earth falls from her hand into the room.
The bearded elf jumps at her with a punch and the earth stops pouring out of her, the bearded (What!) all of a sudden he vanishes mid air as they are confused they look at her as she shows them both hands showing that she doesn't have him and they see a fire like coming from behind them all turn their heads to look at the chubby dragon partially transformed in a monstrous form breathing fire onto the bearded elf's broken body and quickly swallows he's roasted body whole.
All of them stare at their once dead friend eating another friend in fear, Lezana "Looks like I still know enough to bring a dragon back fire and all." The elf and dwarf on the other side of the table hear a burst of blood and get splashed by sum as they turn to look where the other dwarf was lies his head stuck on top of a spike. The other dwarf "No!...NO! why that was my brother." Lezana "And what a pervert and useless waste he was if it weren't for his bodies muscle density I would have gotten rid of his body completely." Points up and they see his upper body smashed open into the wall. The last elf "No we should have heard you do that what are you doing to us."
Lezana "Deciding what u hear how much you feel. Don't worry I raise your sense of touch way above any body on this planet as I kill you. The bearded fellow I'll make a golem." She vanishes again before their eyes and her hands come right through the chest of the second dwarf as blood runs down his mouth, she pats his chest with her hands still in place and moves her hands out via his sides going through the rest of his ribs and tearing his chest muscles as they emerge out covered in blood she walks towards the last elf pulls out his chair and sits on the table close to him and pulls him close by his tie and raises her hand in the air.
The elf begging closes his eyes "Wait, I can give you everything in exchange you killed the rest spare me and I'll make you one of us." He opens his eyes seeing her look down on him with glowing brown eyes Lezana "I don't have that time I want to sleep." The elf "Wait what if I pay you as you wait." Lezana "Give me the offshore account now." The elf without hesitation "Fine give me your phone." Lezana pulls her phone out of her coat pocket and gives it to him before letting go of his tie "Lie me and yours will be exceptionally painful." He types and shortly hands her back her phone as she looks at an account having 197 billion on it and she looks at him "You know you are the one I answer to first I worked diligently for the position I have and you watched me work…you said once to me it's not agreement without the key words now is it, thanks for the free money the company is mine now and you dead." She then pushes through his spine into his neck and pulls out her hand.
Lezana with a lifeless expression reaches into her pocket and pulls out a pack of cigarettes and puts one in her month as she reaches for her lighter and pauses looking up at young woman that looks strikingly like her wearing a white robe with a slit at her throat stares at her. Lezana "What it won't hurt me?" the woman looks at her expression concerned and her head tilted and Lezana holds her own throat "I still remember who's voice I took. Why did you have to…right you don't talk to me anymore." She looks at her the woman and she gestures her to take the cigarette out of her mouth and Lezana takes out and the woman smiles at her as Lezana buries her face in her hands looking up seeing her gone without a trace, Lezana scoffs "Bought this pack of cigarettes 2 years back but I haven't smoked a single one guess I'm one big push over."
As earth pours out from her sleeves to the ground shortly Lezana steps out of the room with her bag humming happily her suit with no sign of blood runs into a janitor "What has you so happy today Jenny." Lezana "I just got a lot done today is all, Eddy." Before continuing Eddy continues cleaning to the meeting where he sees all the executives seated looking at papers looking perfectly alive and hears the first dwarf "I think it's about time that woman received a promotion fitting of her abilities. We were right to give her the day off." Eddy smells her perfume in the room (Lucky her but why does the room smell like her.)
