Chapter 7: Next phase part 2

Three years ago, somewhere within the Aihandrui forest. Some group of merchandisers were offloading their goods as one of them went off to take a piss in the woods, he began hearing voices from the other side of the forest, he peeped to the other side to see some beautiful maidens having their bath. With curiosity he tripped over a branch and fell over, exposing himself to the maidens. He stood up and was about to approach them when he got hit by a magical blast from one of the maiden, making him unconscious as he fell to the ground. They all escaped through a magical portal except for one who came to see how he was before leaving.

The next day, he couldn't stop thinking about what he had seen the other day, he often goes to the woods to see if he could spot the beautiful maidens again. As the day goes by without having any luck, he suddenly came across one eventually on a fateful day. The maiden who had blasted him, he couldn't believe his eyes, spying on her beautiful body, he could see her boobs exposed, her beautiful shape, long blond hair, blue eyes, lovely legs. He couldn't control his lustful desire, not knowing that she had already spotted him spying on her.

"Why do you spy on me", she said. As she appeared behind him which startled him. He stammers with his response to her, seeing that she was completely naked right in front of him.

"Men!", She said. "They're always the same". Leaving him to go continue her bath as he followed her from behind.

"I don't mean to", he said. "Truly your beautiful knows no bounds". As she magically puts on her clothes due to the fact that she had lost interest to continue her bath.

"Flattery is a cheap distraction from truth. It'll lead you nowhere", she replied with a lovely smile while glancing at him in a romantic way.

"What are you?", He asked in astonishment.

"Don't you know who I am?", She asked.

"You're not like our maidens here in Aihandrui". He said.

"Who am I to you?", She asked.

"A goddess!", He said. "Or an angel".

She smiled and said. "A fairy". As she was about leaving, she was stopped by his words. 

"A supernatural". He whispered with a smile.

"Will I ever see you again?", He asked.

"Only if you believe you can", she replied as she vanished into thin air.

The days went by, he would come to where he had always thought she would be, days turned to weeks and weeks months but he never gave up on her.

Six month passed away when the people of Aihandrui were under attack by the IMPERISHABLES who came to invade their hometown, capturing the supernaturals in every family, they colonized the people of Aihandrui into slavery. 

The story returns to Emma and her friends who were been teleported away from harm's way by Fuji saw themselves at the borders of Aihandrui. Emma noticed her magical compass glowing as she pointed it towards the direction of Aihandrui. Dante could see the horrors going on in Aihandrui, Karl and Grace could smell the danger coming from Aihandrui. And Emma could hear and see what lies ahead in Aihandrui.

"It's chaos out there", said Karl Carl.

"All those people... Suffering", Grace said. "Being tortured by Lycans".

"Why would the IMPERISHABLES come here?", Emma asked within her thoughts.

They saw a young lady being drag like a ragdoll with her child taken from her was about to be turned by a werewolf. Emma could no longer bear to watch from the woods as she and her friends came to the rescue. They fought with the IMPERISHABLES. She used her abilities to win, driving few into the woods as they ran. Dante, Karl and Grace also fought with the imperishables. Karl did turn into all sort of animals to battle, as a lion, he ripped out the heart of an hybrid, as a panther, he devoured hunters who took sides with the imperishables, as a wolf he battled with a werewolf with the aid of Dante in killing it and as a python he consumed a tribrid.

Grace on the other hand brutally killed an hybrid and a tribrid. Emma used her witches fire and cryokinesis as well in freezing her enemies with ease. Those who were unable to stand the pressure retreated, leaving Emma and her friends victorious.

They freed those who were in chains and those who were bitten were taken care of. The young lady who's child was taken from her was given back her child by Emma as she thanked her. The people rejoiced with one who cuts them off during their happy moments.

"They would come for us!!!...", He yelled. "They haven't forgotten what they came for".

The place became quiet as a graveyard. 

"What do you mean?", Grace asked. "You barely have supernaturals within your town".

"The imperishables are liking for a recruit perhaps", said Dante.

"You don't get it do you", He said. "The imperishables are only here for one thing, despite all what they're doing... They've come for the immortal".

Emma and her friends were shocked at his saying when they all stared at each other and at him.

"Is there a vampire among you", Dante asked.

"No!", He replied. "He's the only immortal human who stole from a fairy which attracted the imperishables. His greed endangered our people and therefore, we banished him. And ever since, the imperishables have been looking for him".

"Where can we find him?", Emma asked. With the none being able to respond.

Suddenly an old woman came to her and asked, if she would like to know the story of John Maxwell the immortal human. She invited them into her home as she began narrating to them all what had happened.

The story continues before six month had passed away when the people of Aihandrui were under attack by the imperishables who came to invade their hometown. 

"But on a fateful day, John Maxwell saw the beautiful maiden he once had an eye for, for she was in trouble when a supernatural was after her", she said. "Maxwell who had no thought of reasoning intervened to save the damsel in distress".

She was unable to overpower her opponent at the point of death when Maxwell came in to save the day. For what he had killed was unlike any other supernaturals. "A vampire fairy". She said.

"But how?", Dante asked. "It's impossible for a human to kill a vampire fairy".

"Impossible indeed", she replied. "But it was the sun who had saved them both, with John being able to restrain the creature in his torture while it burnt to ashes. And from that moment a fairy had gain the trust of John Maxwell. They would see often, having to trust him, she fell in love with him, they became soul mates. But John had other plans, when he started asking about the secrets of fairy's youth, and ofcourse she'd tell him, since he saved her life. She took him to the fairy world (colony) where she showed him the things and ways of the fairies".

Their trust and love had grown stronger until when Maxwell did the unthinkable. He drank from the fairy's fountain of youth, it brought great disturbance within the fairy colony. He was captured and brought to the councils of the fairy order to be judged and no matter what they'd, they were unable to extract immortality out of him. John Maxwell was imprisoned for many years till he was able to escape, not caring for whom he had loved and endangered.

He came back to Aihandrui still looking how he was then, he came back looking for trouble which attracted the imperishables to us and ever since then, they had been looking for him after we banished him out of our lands with the imperishables hoping that one day he might return.

"What a tragic story", said Dante. "With him being immortal he would regret all his wrong doings".

"Do you have any idea of where we can find him", Emma asked the old lady who was unable to provide an answer when her grandchild came in to disclose the location. He took them to where he had always been seeing John Maxwell. He stopped at a junction and pointed towards the direction ahead for them to follow as he went back home.

"You'll find him there! Straight ahead in the woods". He said. As Emma thanked him.

They got to the place where Maxwell was only to see it unkept, bottles of beer on the floor, a dead antelope roasting like a barbecue in it's hanger, some shirts and pants hung on a rope still dips wet. The entire place was a mess as they went straight to the door and knocked hoping for someone to answer when Maxwell came from behind shirtless with a dead animal around his neck.

"What the fuck are you doing?", John Maxwell said. "This area is off limits".

They all turned around to see John Maxwell with him being able to recognize Dante. 

"Dante?", said John. 

"Chris!", Dante replied.

"You know each other?", Grace asked.

They all seated out to discuss. Dante and Chris had a long history of friendship before he (Chris) took a new identity as John Maxwell. But in this case we'll be sticking with his new identity as John Maxwell.

"It's been thirty-five years since I had set my eyes on you Dante", said John. "Took you long enough to find me, I see you're still the same old Dante I know of".

"Likewise you", Dante replied.

"Nah! Age took over", said John with a slight smirk.

"Sorry to ruin the moment but how'd you guys know each other", Grace asked.

"We were once childhood friends", Dante replied. "Chris!... John and I were very close. We'd everything together, he was like a brother to me after we had lost both our parents we vowed to look after one another".

"Dante was very troublesome", said John as he took out a bottle of beer and flipped open the cap with his thumb to drink. "He was still human then. Oh boy! That was the good old days for Dante".

"We'd all we could to survive... Committed all sorts of crimes together. We'd what we had to do to survive, to keep our belly full", said John. "Not until the supernaturals attacked our homeland, they killed innocent people, men, women and children. We barely made it out alive in the woods if not for a supernatural who came to our aid. He saved us". He said while staring at Dante.

"He moved so fast that our eyes could barely keep up with his fast reflexes. He was a vampire and not just any vampire but a contracted one". John said.

"A vampire assassin", said Grace.

John Maxwell cleared his throat as he leaned back to his seat. "Well the rest is history, so why come now after all these years". said John.

"The imperishables are back", said Emma.

"Oh shit! I know that already", John replied.

"Not just that, but the town you once were are now in trouble for what you've done", Emma said. "What really happened when you became an immortal".

John took a deep breath and stared at Emma when he suddenly remembered something, as if it had jogged his memory down the line.

"It's you isn't it, the great legendary Emma Stone", said John. "You were there on that day when the war happened in fairy colony".

"So you'd come to the fairy colony", Karl asked.

"But it was not as you were told, I'm sure you were told stories of how I betrayed the one I loved for my selfish desires or how I made trouble in Aihandrui but they're all wrong", said John. "They never understood the real truth of what happened".

"Then what really happened John", said Dante. As he told them all that had happened.

"After I had saved Brenda from the vampire fairy I was badly hurt to the point of death, for she was on a mission to protect her colony from war. She tried as much as possible to heal most of my injuries as I could barely breathe. Brenda took me into the fairy colony, she saved my life with the fountain of youth. I never stold from it. Her people were informed of what I had done for her and she took responsibility of that", said John. "Before fairy colony was under attack. She told me to stay hidden that they would come for me if they spot a human who's immortal. I tried to stay hidden but couldn't bear to see Brenda been killed as she died in my arms. I could still recall her beautiful smile", He said sobering. 

"I fought alongside with the colony and was spotted by another who went after me after my escape by another fairy who led me through the fairy gateway. And then, the imperishables found me in Aihandrui as I fought to protect with few of the supernaturals within her people. They saw my coming to their hometown as a curse and thus, I was banished. I never meant to hurt anyone, I never meant to bring trouble".

"Am so sorry for your lost John", said Emma. "But those people need your help, no matter what they've thought of you to be, you can still change that and let them know and see that it was not as they sought it to be in their heart. I believe it's what Brenda would want you to do. To make the right choice and use your gift to save this people".

"And let's not forget the imperishables are after him as well", said Dante. "They want what you've".

"Well they can't get it and never will", John replied.

On the other side, those who had escaped went back to report to their masters of how they were defeated by the descendant of Dracula Stone. Veronica hearing this became more furious and made a bounty on Emma and her friends but most especially Emma Stone. They regrouped themselves and went after Emma, her friends and the immortal human.

Sometimes later in Aihandrui the imperishables came in full force to lay waste on her people, Emma on the other hand could sense the dangers ahead as she informed them about leaving with John who is now on their side. Luckily they arrived before the imperishables and explained in details what is to come and what had happened. The people were astonished as they believe in what they've heard inorder to prepare for battle. Few supernaturals within Aihandrui came to side with Emma and her friends, why others protect the none supernaturals as they had a strategic plan.

Meanwhile, at wicca sabbat a raven was sent by sister Becca from the witches of light to deliver a message, informing them about the sisters of the dark Han who would come for the chosen. After Peggy Lance had successful completed her trials of initiation, the raven headed straight to the council of witches during their hours of divination. Dorothy spotted the raven and alerted the others with Peggy Lance as well. The raven flew straight to Peggy and landed on her hand where it stared into her eyes and showed her all that had happen.

"My Queen. Mother of all. What did you see", Dorothy asked.

"I saw the death of the chancellor. I saw the attack on Pytaminc", said Peggy. "I see war coming here".

It came as a great disturbance to the council as Dorothy encouraged the light of hope to the council.

"The witches of the light are strong and will forever be strong and so will the wicca sabbat", said Dorothy. "We've the great descendant of our ancestors in our midst. We've Peggy Lance". With indistinct conversation among the council members.

"So what do you suffice?", Asked one of the council.

At nightfall, the imperishables came to Aihandrui only to see the entire town quiet and peaceful. They could barely sense any presence of life. 

"Where have they gone to?", said one of the imperishables. As the Lycanthropes began to sniff the area for traces of human or supernaturals.

"You'll find none here", said John who's standing on a high fence.

"The immortal human", said an hybrid. "You're coming with us".

"Not if we can help it", said Emma as her friends began to reveal themselves from the Shadows. They had set oil and dynamites around the parameters with Emma lighting it up with her witches fire which ignite with the dynamite to cause a massive explosion that burnt them to ashes. The few surviving ones and those that barely made it alive were all brutally slaughtered by the immortal human with Emma and her friends.
