Hellbound With You (WN)

”What do you mean? Do you still have a plan?Or are you still planning to kill Zeres? ” Alex ’s voice suddenly became harder. He knew this was not the right time to talk but he needed to know what this man was planning to do now.

”I can ’t just agree to you killing Zeres off now that Alicia is dead. She had sacrificed herself to save him. ” Alex ’s voice was grave and serious. ”If your only solution to this is to kill him, Alicia ’s sacrifice would be worthless. I… I don ’t want her death to be in vain… ”

Despite Alex ’s almost absolute trust in Zeke and his uncanny ability in solving complex problems, when it comes to the matter of the witches, Alex was a little skeptical. He knew Zeke would always head towards the path where the peace in this world would not be compromised. And no matter how gruesome that path was, he would not hesitate so long as the result would keep the world from falling into ruins.

A long and heavy silence reigned between them. For Alex, the silence was due to him thinking on what more he could say to dissuade Zeke in the event that he wanted to go ahead in getting rid of Zeres. For Zeke, he seemed to be thinking things over in his mind. It was definitely a rare occasion for Zeke to appear indecisive. His suspiciously long pause that was so unlike him had made Alex ’s crease his brows. Alex did not know if he should be feeling worried or happy for the decision that Zeke would arrive on after his time of reflection.

”I know, ” was all Zeke said when he finally responded. ”For now, we must deal with these demons first Alex? ”

Alex ’s attention was pulled towards the demons before them. Their eyes were all fixed towards Zeke. It was as if they were all waiting for a signal on whether to attack or retreat. Looking at their numbers, Alex could only relent. Zeke was right on this point. It was imperative that they deal with these things first while Zeres was still in that state. Anything and everything else will have to take a backseat for now.

”I need you to intensify the storm again. ” Zeke continued after seeing the consent in Alex ’s eyes, ”The human ’s military forces are on the way here. I will be needing you to block them from reaching to this area. There is no need to kill them. ” He narrated before glancing back at Alex after giving his final instructions on their plan and Alex knew Zeke was indirectly reminding him to control his powers so that there would not be any accidental killing of the humans.

”I know. Make this quick Zeke. ” Alex told him. The urgency was evident in his voice.
