CHAPTER TWO: AWAKENING

In a faraway dimension away from Earth,

"The wheel of fate is changing" A voice was heard and the voice echoed in an originally serene white castle.

The castle was white and glittering like a diamond placed in the sun. It was standing in space but it is stable as if it does not feel the effect of the absence of gravity. It covered the light of other celestial bodies making it the center of attention. The voice was from a beautiful tall and slim lady who was wearing a light blue dress.

She walked into the white castle elegantly with her fair feet that were not touching the floor, it was touching something like a blue ripple of transparent energy. The glittering blue dress she wore was reflecting the white color of the castle like a diamond was attached to it and the castle was also glittering with white light, which made it look like she was a blue moon amid the white sky.

"Hmm, moon goddess what did you say" A divine voice was heard as a man wearing white robes with white hair appeared in front of the lady.

The man was extremely beautiful with white hair, long eyelashes, and full-read lips. He has fair white skin that could make a lady envious. Moon Goddess's beauty seemed to be inferior the moment the man appeared because it looked like all the light around the man dimmed, leaving his light to shine. It was as if the word 'perfection' was formed because of him. Moon Goddess had to bow down before the man.

"The wheel of fate rotated faster today and emitted a black energy" The moon goddess answered.

"That means another threat is appearing and it is more dangerous than the one we are facing now" Another feminine voice was heard and the white light in front of them revealed to show a beautiful lady in her twenties. She is a perfect definition of a female fatale, she is very beautiful with a long slim body that seemed to have been carved out from jade and has its full proportion. She has black long hair that was flowing to the ground and her long eyelashes were fluttering softly she has a long pointed nose and pale white lips but she has a worried expression on her face.

"Immediately it emitted a black light, it also emitted a white light while pointing to a direction" The moon goddess answered still bowing down.

"A black and white light, the black light means calamity while the white light means a child of destiny, and both of them pointing towards the same direction means two things. The first option is the calamity where the child of destiny is and is trying to kill it to get rid of the threat" The man said.

"Or the second option is a double-edged weapon, the calamity is also the child of destiny and that means it depends on which hands it falls into now" The lady answered and they both look at themselves with narrowed eyes.

"With immediate effect, summon the grand immortals here" The lady ordered the moon goddess.

"Yes, revered immortal," the Moon goddess said and she walked out of the castle.

The two looked at themselves but did not say anything again, they were deep into their respective thought already. They had different thoughts about the information they just heard.

"Puah" A mouthful of blood was spat out from a man who was having blood dripping from his eyes.

"Are you ok" A guy rushed to the man. It was the guys that went to the red sea where a ship was sunk before with two ladies.

"Monster, he must not be allowed to mature," Seer said.

This was the seer that the three were talking about earlier. They came to him for divination about Mark's where-about and future.

"What!!" One of the ladies exclaimed.

"He does not have any source of power, he is the source of power itself," Seer said with widened eyes as if he just saw something he dread.

The three exclaimed with eyes full of horror. They'd never heard this before, cold sweat was already dripping from their face.

"Not only that, the power is so tyrannical that it can burn into any form of dimension even the dream and reality," Seer said while trembling because of what he felt and saw.

"We are really in for a lot of trouble this time," The guy said while their breath quickened.

"And we don't even know his location," One of the ladies said with a troubled expression.

"Let's get back to Dad, it looks like this is time for the whole primordial forest to unite," He told the other two and they quickly left without hesitation.

Back in the white castle, this time it was not only two people, there were seven people including the man and the woman from earlier. Out of the seven, five were men while two were ladies but they all looked like they were in their seventies.

"I know you must have heard about the recent situation from the moon goddess and also know the implication," The man said. They all nodded their head solemnly.

"The wheel of fate is rotating faster and none of the children of destiny we had before had this kind of reaction on the wheel of fate and this means that he might be the real son of heaven sent to us," The headmaster said and everyone nodded in acknowledgment.

"The problem is also that he might also be the calamity because the wheel of fate has been emitting white and black light at the same time, but no matter what happens we must get to him first," The headmaster said.

"Who should we send to confirm the situation," One of the old men asked.

"We must not send a conspicuous troop because only us has the wheel of fate and the others are monitoring us so they will most likely know if something is happening If we dispatch a large troop, we will dispatch our pure shadow agent" The headmaster concluded and they all agreed thinking that that was the right decision.

"Hnngh" Mark woke up with a grunt because the first thing he saw was the sensitivity his eyes had to light.

"Wait I'm alive," He said as he looked at himself but he found out he was naked in an enclosed pod.

"Where am I," He asked himself. He could not register quickly because had just woken up from a half-death state. The pod opened.

"You're awake," A beautiful lady told him.

"Where am I," He asked.

"Wear some clothes first," The lady said.

"Oh," He said emotionlessly. He had not regained his whole body function because he had just woken from a half-dead state.

Back in the primordial forest.

"Are you sure about what you are saying" A man who looked like he was in his fifties stood up from his seat with an alarmed face? He looked like he was in his fifties but with a hair full of white hair and a striking red eyeball. He was the leader of the Quinn family 'Tiger Quinn'. One of the top supernatural families. He is a cold-blooded vampire family leader who is known to be one of the three strongest families among the supernatural familiarly

"It's exactly as I said" The guy who was with Seer earlier answered. He was back here with the two ladies who were his sisters. His name is Corton Quinn while his sisters were Jessie and Josie.

"Then we need to have a meeting to unite the whole forest together against this foe," Tiger said as he took out his phone and dialed a number. The number was picked and he passed out an order that there will be a meeting within a maximum of one week for everyone in the primordial forest.

"I've changed," Mark said while sighing as he looked at himself in the mirror. He looked at the face with a sharp jawline that give people the illusion that it can stab through anything. The long eyelashes and the long sharp and pointed nose with his lips were red as if they'd been painted with blood. He looked at his skinny but muscular body especially his finger that looked like they were bony and his fair skin.

"I did not die but what did you do to me?" He asked.

"We did not do anything to you, we only brought you out from the water," The guy said.

"You're not human," The guy said.

"So am I a monster now," He asked while sighing in resignation.

"You have not awakened your power fully yet," The guy said.

"Or can you feel anything," The guy asked again.

"Don't ask me again, just take me back to the United States, I want to live a normal life" He said.

"You will be hunted down," The guy said.

"No I just want to go and live my life and I need a little bit of privacy" He answered.

"Ok," The guy answered helplessly.

"Where can I sleep, I'm tired," He asked. The events already tasked his mind and he felt tired emotionally. He thought he was going to die but he woke up to become a monster.

The guy pointed him to a place on the spaceship and he went there to sleep.

"Are we just going to leave him??" One of the ladies asked the guy

"We will monitor him secretly, the information and shock are too much for him so he needs time to realize his true self now" The guy answered while looking in the direction Mark just left
