Plot Twist

Little by little Lucy was dying, a death not caused by natural occurrence but one compelled and forced by an angry master whom she had obeyed and served all through her life. Her crime was falling in love with whom her soul tickles fantasies for and choosing to stand by him no matter what comes out of it. Deep down Lucy knew that the master would disprove of it so she decided to keep it secret from every one including her adopted parents, James and Jenny. Talking about the parents she has come to love and cherish, she was scared that their cover would be blown if anything should happen to her, it would not take long before they squeeze out the truth from the other demons that are now held in the prison just meters away from her slaughter ground. Lucy was still in the dilemma when she heard a kick sound then a slice sound before a splash sound but all these sounds came from her host body and every process, she felt it because her soul has aligned with the body of the host. Lucy's soul was forced – trapped so that she can't escape from that body and take another host, that way when the current host body dies, her soul would be sent straight to purgatory where she meets her doom.

Zyana was eagerly looking for a way out of the prison at least to save Lucy but to do that, she needs the help of one of the prisoned Legions even though she trusts none of them after one if not all of them leaked their plans and location to the clan. She called out for Lie, but got no response then she called out for Death and Seduction but still got no response, it was then that she realized that they were placed in different locations of the prisons; Zyana was about giving up when someone opened her prison gate and asked her to step out, she was scared because she felt it was time to kill her but a closer look at the figure ensured that the person who opened the door was one of her faithful students who she has helped in many occasions, the lady was nearly mobbed by the clan but Zyana was there to protect her and ensure that she was safe guarded from been lynched by the clan during her time as the matron of St Mary's orphanage.

Even though Shiva was unhappy with Zyana for leaving without telling her and for turning into traitor against the clan, Shiva's loyalty to Zyana still remained unmoved because Zyana was the one that saved her life and protected her till she matured to act and protect her life herself. Shiva unlocked the door of the prison for Zyana to come out but she gave her one condition which is '' I must go with you''. Zyana had wanted to object because she believed that Shiva would be more protected if she is with the clan but on a second thought, she needed to be free from the prison in order to save Lucy and to leave Shiva after she opened the door for her would be suicidal for Shiva, so she agreed and was released. When they got out of the prison room, Zyana noticed that the two guards placed at the entrance of her cell block has been knocked off by Shiva so her curiosity increased because you can't use your powers in the cell otherwise you lose it and become weary, she asked Shiva and she explained that if the boundary power drainer exist only when you are inside the prison but if you are outside the cell blocks, you can freely use your powers but many people do not know this about the tussles of power.

Zyana wanted to find a way to run away with Shiva but she knew that would mean that they would be in run forever, they need to find the last element of freedom in order to completely free themselves from the clan and in other to do so, she needs people to complete that mission, Shiva is not enough though her effort makes it easier for them. They dragged the demons that Shiva trapped inside the cell and locked it up, then they headed straight to the adjacent blocks to find the legions.

To their surprise, nobody was guarding the doors to the prison because all of them where busy outside take turns on Lucy's blood, Zyana had a plan and that plan was to find a way to escape with Lucy and then find who set them up. She saw Seduction and Death and quickly freed them, she explained to them that they can use their powers outside the cell blocks, then the four of them ( Zyana, Shiva, Seduction and Death) starting looking for a way to save the demon of lie but when they got to the last block, they did not find him. They were scared something must have happened to him but as they went further, they found him amongst the clan taking cuts at the Lucy's body, he was busy telling them how the master appeared to him and gave him instructions to keep tabs of the traitors and keep up with information about their moves. It dawned on Zyana and the rest of them that Demon Of Lie was the mole in their midst, he had given out information about their plans and even time of attacks. He must have also given information about the element of freedom and the last piece that is needed. Death suggested that they all search for the missing elements and then collectively save Lucy before departing. They decided to go in twos because that way they can cover more grounds since they are unsure about the absolute location of the element, only rumor has it that it was buried deep beside the grave of the initial bearer, Death would always ask '' who was the initial bearer?
