Is There A Saviour

The decision to leave Lucy hanging like near dead animal been prepared to be slaughtered and roasted was a collective decision, the idea was to quickly find the last element as quick as possible and return back on time to save Lucy before they kill her, they knew the time the clan set out for her killing through the help of Shiva, so they are fully aware that they do have about two hours to find the element, save Lucy and disappear. They knew that if they make Lucy priority over the element, their lives would still be in danger because they would still not be free from the Master and they can't establish dominance of their own, hence why they need the element as soon as possible. The assumption was that they are in prison and can't use their powers so they decided to explore that option of the clan's unawareness to find the element; more importantly, since the legion Lie already revealed their agenda to the clan, the security will be tougher and near impossible to breach. Death in his statement said '' Guess you don't trust a nature called Lie, because their make up is filled with lies ''.

Since Shiva and Zyana knows every corner of the orphanage very well, they decided not to go together because death and seduction demon are clueless about some places so death paired with Shiva while seduction paired with Zyana, but before they stepped out, they all agreed to be back in exactly one hour thirty minutes at the top of the climax center. The first group ( Zyana and Seduction) went towards the grave yards with a clue to find a particular grave of the former bearer named Hyakimimachi who was the head of the clan for twelve centuries before the master called him in to the abyss. Many rumour has it that he disobeyed the master by finding freedom but the master caught up with his plans and quickly called him back. He had expectations to come back after his face to face meeting with the master but the master set him up and ensured that his body was burnt on earth while he went to the spirit to meet up with the master, after then he could only come back to the earth if the master grants him access but that would never happen because the master has lost faith in him. So the then student of Hyakimimachi decided to bury him with the things most precious to him and that includes the last element which Zyana and co are searching for desperately. So Zyana and Seduction went towards the grave to find his grave.

So the second group which includes Shiva and Death went to the former apartment of the Hyakimimachi, rumour has it that nobody has dared to enter his former apartment because there are deadly ghosts every where in the house. It was told that the last six people that went inside the house never came back alive so the place was sealed and deserted. Shiva pointed out that the place is haunted but the ghosts there cannot kill because they do not have bodies, but she warned that the mirror of reflection, an ancient mirror shows the master everything that happens in the house if someone enters and gets seen by the mirror. The myth about the house is that the student who buried Hyakimimachi did not bury him with all his possessions, rather he kept them in his apartment to study about them but sadly, he ran mad and died in the process of the studies to gain knowledge. So Shiva and Death must enter the apartment and ensure they don't look at the mirror and still search for the last element that they need, all of these must happen within an hour thirty minutes. As determined as they were, they entered the apartment called SACRED.

Lucy's hope in hopelessness sprouted the question '' is there even a savior '' coming for you? Many of the demons would ask the questions and laugh out loud, then they would keep on feasting because they felt that they do not have any imminent danger lurking around, after all the other traitors have been neutralized and caged in the prison where they cannot use their powers and ultimately, the master would kill them all. Lucy all through the time would scream when she gets a cut and a splash of blood but will instantly return back smiling at them even though she was hanging like a cursed man, well she was cursed to death by the master. Lucy has a very special gift and that gift is called sensitivity, she sensed that her friends have escaped the prison and could probably come for her so she kept her hope alive for the saviors, the glimpse of faith in the hopelessness kept her alive even when she was sure of dying the next minute.

Death and Shiva started searching for the element, they weren't sure what it looked like but myths have it that its all covered in gold, so they searched and search everywhere. They first encountered ghosts when they entered the place and it was as though the ghosts wanted to force them to enter the living room where the mirror of reflection stands, but they observed this and took a semi circular direction to other place, they entered his room and discovered lots of items that are of value, and Death was tempted to take some of them but Shiva retrained him because the moment he touches them, he will become attached to it and the may not be able to leave the place successfully. The more he attempted to leave the more his spirit gets drawn to them, instantly Shiva hit his head and he came back to his senses. The dead souls are the ones drawing him to the items so as to trap him in them and make them not be able to accomplish their missions successfully.
