?Hound’s Duty?
❄️By Crownway Amef❄️
??Episode 16??
?Not every hellhound belongs to hell?
Location:???? Candle road.
Erik weezed out and spit the blood in his mouth.
He tried to stand up but Anthony kicked him back.
” Are you this weak?
“I won’t let you hurt him” Erik replied.
“Now I remember the dream I’ve been having since I was small” Erik added but Anthony yelled at him.
“Erik try to convince me!” Anthony yelled.
Erik’s back is on the floor and he saw Susan passed out beside him, he gazed at the sky and almost passing out but then something sharp penetrated into his ears and he gasped out as if coming back to life.
He stood up and summon the hound in him again.
“Are you that clueless that fire doesn’t work on me?” Anthony said.
“Yeah I know but i’m not a regular hellhound.
He swings his hands and his claws sprang up then a sword appeared in his hand which turned his red fire blue.
” Now what will you call this kind of fire? A hell fire or sky fire?” Erik grinned.
Anthony smiled underneath his mask and he emptied his gun.
“They are watching…” Anthony whispered.
“What the Fuçk are you muttering?” Erik asked confused.
“Shhhh they can hear you from afar but not me… They couldn’t find ways to do it” Anthony said again.
Anthony’s skull mask came off and Erik recognised him.
“Keep that new powers for another day mate, it’s not going to be easy”
Erik dashed at him with his superspeed and cut his hand then he vanished into thin air with his motorcycle but returned them back to where they were before.
Erik was still confused about the whole thing, he saw Susan and rushed to her.
His sword disappeared and he carried Susan.
School ??
Kira and Jeff saw Lady in black guarding a class.
They hesitated at first and exchanged glances at each other but then Kira took the first step.
Lady in black was surprised and her hand fan changed to a sickle.
Kira stopped “Block your ears Jeff, I exclude you from my wrath”
Then she screamed so loud that a storm began outside.
Lady in black couldn’t approach her and she’s bleeding from her ears.
“Fuçk I should avoid this Bîtch.” She said.
Kira never stopped screaming till Lady in black disappeared and the seal came off.
“Yeah you can’t expect her to be as powerful as before after coming back to life numerous times” Jeff mocked.
Haliah opened the door and came out to them.
“Kira was that you?” She asked.
“Yeah” she said.
“Thanks” she said teary eyed.
“What’s wrong?”
“Erik and Susan… They are in danger mother was here”
“What? Violet is here down earth?”
“Yeah I need your help to locate him, you saw him last right?”
Haliah asked them to join hands and she went through their memories before requesting for Erik’s whereabouts.
Every road became a map and she scanned them thoroughly before seeing Erik and Susan.
She opened her eyes and gasped.
“The city Rose” she said.
They ran out of the school and took a taxi to where they are.
Erik saw them from afar and he was so happy but he is bleeding as well.
Kira flagged down a taxi immediately.Jeff helped him carry Susan into the car and they entered as well.
“You’re bleeding” Haliah asked teary eyed.
“I’ll be fine” Erik said.
“Hey Students what have you been up to? You should go to the hospital” The taxi driver asked.
“Please sir just drive us to where we called for you”
“No way am I gonna do that, I’m driving you all to the hospital and phone the police”
Haliah touched the driver’s shoulder which made him look back and exchange glances with Haliah.
“Forget you ever met us and drive us to the address” she hypnotized the man.
“You can do that?” Erik questioned.
“I guess” Haliah replied.
?????⚓⚓⚓
Anthony watched them leave and rode the invisible air with flames all over him, he discard the gun with fake bullets and he returned the real pistol into his holster.
Ciara saw this and she levitate up high to stop him.
“What did you get rid of?” she asked.
“I don’t report to you but to the higher lady” Anthony said and left her on the spot.
???????
They arrived at their Mansion and saw the Police car leaving the area.
Floral opened the gate and they entered.
The robots came to assist them in and Haliah cleared the driver’s memory.
“I’m sorry I had to do this” she said and the driver left.
“How am I different from my mother?” She thought to herself and wiped her tears.
Susan was laid on the table and Linnaues tore her dress. The bullet wound is wide and with a curved opener on it.
“This is not an ordinary bullet” Linnaeus said.
“Then what?”
“Hey Erik remove your shirt, you’re bleeding too” Haliah said.
Erik tore his shirt and insert his claws into the wound tryingg to remove the bullet. He groaned out in pain and finally removed it into the dish.
“Mine is a real bullet” he said panting.
“What happened exactly?”
“Anthony is a ghost rider”
“What? That nerdy boy?”
“He’s got a rider essence growing in him all these while just like my case” Erik explained.
“So how could he attack you? Violet must have poisoned his mind”
“A message… It’s a message” Linnaeus said bringing out the metallic round box shot at Susan.
Susan cried out as Linnaeus removed it but her wound closed back.
Floral handed over a screwdriver to him and he opened it up, inside it is a code.
“He’s trying to tell you sth”
“Yeah right… That explains what he was saying to me, he was trying to tell me something.”
“Floral check it out” Linnaeus said.
Floral took the paper and read the codes out.
“Bto-ne- gzcdr- khaqzqx
H rtquhudc – Gdko tu”
“What language is that?” Kira questioned.
Floral set her computer and she started pressing the buttons checking for any possible way to decode it.
“Why did he have to send the message through me?” Susan groaned in pain.
“So sorry Susan” Jeff said.
After operating the system for like 30 minutes, she smiled.
“Ha ha! Found it.” she exclaimed.
“Bto-ne- gzcdr- khaqzqx
H rtquhudc – Gdko tu”
It’s an alphabetical trick in which you need to write the second letter after the real alphabets on paper.
C comes before b
T comes before U and O comes before p. That’s C-U-P which means cup and ne means of.”
“Gzcdr means Hades” Haliah added.
Now they get the hang of it.
“khaqzqx means Library” Kira said.
“I SURVIVED, HELP ME” Floral continued.
” Seems the gifted are in trouble and Anthony is here to look for help”Jeff said.
” Mother came to visit me today” Haliah said and they all turned around at once.
“She’s around with the others I guess” Mr.Linnaeus said.
“That explains Ciara swapping my phone earlier too, everything was planned, Lady in black is helping her” Kira said.
“What’s about the cup of hades?”
Linnaues knew about it and he asked Floral to search the Library in her brain which was installed into her and she explained it all to them.
“What? So they are going to do Violet’s biddings no matter what” Haliah said.
“But how did Anthony escape the oath?”
“He said it in the letter seems his rider essence rejected it.”
“How do we send a reply to him that we got his message?” Susan questioned.
“He’s going to attack me again, I’m sure of it” Erik said.
“You just have to give him a chance to since he’s always been watched” Linnaeus said.
“We can just trap him” Haliah said.
“But how? Is there anything we can use against him? Erik’s hounds side doesn’t work for him” Susan said.
“I have an idea” Haliah said.
“What?”
“MOUNTAIN ASH… he’s also one of the harbingers of death anyway” Haliah said grinning.
Location: Hanson Mansion.
The black angels transformed to normal guards and the gifted started living there as well.
Ciara reported her suspicion to Violet.
“Ciara we both know your doubt is not welcomed, they are all under my oath already. They can never betray me” Violet said.
“But I’m very sure there’s something about him” Ciara insisted.
“Even if he’s up to something, he’s not that foolish to act on his first mission and if there’s someone I can doubt… That will be you” Violet said.
Ciara went on her knees immediately pledging her loyalty.
“No Ciara it’s just the fact. You are the only one that didn’t take the oath because I trust you okay? So know the kind of allegations you will bring before me.
Violet exit the room and Ciara made up her mind to find out more about Anthony.
” There’s something about him but I just can’t get my hands on it” she muttered to herself.
