Chapter 6: Celebration

Now this takes place where Andrew and Joseph parents. A mysterious land came out of nowhere, and right next to MistWood.

...

[Back to Joseph's parents.]

Few were walking towards an unknown place nearby their village. They slowly got close, and surprisely saw a new village, the folks were confused.

"Was there a place like this near us?" A random old man, and his tone was soft and gentle.

"No way. If there was a place like this, we would have known about it." Another old man.

"I don't see anyone around here." The women soft and warm voice.

Few villages came and see the rest of the place, but to their shock. Not a single person was in the village, a bar was open up.

"Mom! Look what I got!" A child voice.

The mother looks and saw a basket full of Apples. They were fresh, and favorable. The child bit half of it, the mother was concerned, "Where did you get that?" she was surprised by her son's rudeness and grabbed someone's basket.

To her son, he looked at her mother, "Mom... I don't see anyone live here, and the place is empty. It's like the place was just magical and appeared so suddenly."

The mother didn't believe her son, but she was around here before, knowing full well that this place was not here before.

But before she could say—

Her son grabbed her and showed her around the place.

Not far, new folks came as well, and some that we recognize.

Joseph's parents came just right on time, and with Andrew, they all came. Because, they heard that some unknown village was near MistWood. Jonathan walk calmly with his wife, while Joseph ran off to check the place himself.

Elizabeth was looking around, "Why did anyone not notice a village was built here?" she was surprised to see a village.

Jonathan walks towards his wife, he suddenly notices Andrew was calm. Johnathan saw him going to a wooden stage.

Andrew looks around, and raises his voice out loud.

"GOD! HAS BROUGHT US A NEW LAND!!!" Andrew said wtih serious voice.

Everyone stops, and looked towards Father Andrew. They all gather to hear what he was saying, they alll slowly walk to see what was going on.

as I was looking slowly to walk on the wood stairs, and looks at everyone with confidence, he stares deeply while calmly. Their eyes were fully on me, Andrew showed no fear, while looking down on the village.

"GOD HAS SENT US A GIFT!" Andrew's voice was deep and serious.

"THIS PLACE, WAS GIVEN TO US BY OUR GOD."

Andrew look down on the village folks. While others thought he was talking nonsense, few did not agree with his words. Then someone decided, to question him and see what he said.

"How would you know that!?" A random person in the crowd yelling out loud.

Andew smiled, "He has sent me a message. To let you all know! That this place that he built! It was for all of us, to live peacefully and safely away from harm."

Andrew words were no lies, he has said what he was told. He has seen God message himself. The message that he saw,

[I have built a new village for MistWood.]

That was the only message he saw from his god.

Andrew looks fiercely, "God had been watching us. He has seen our suffering! He has seen that we were helpless, he has seen our pain!"

The same guy in the crowd spoke up, "OH, YEAH!... WHERE HAVE YOUR GOD BEEN THEN!?" his voice was full of anger.

A old man in his 40s,he was poorly dressed. His clothes were like beggar, and his face was covered in dust and dirt. He wears one pair of slippers, and his sleeves roll up on his hand.

The old man was looking at Andrew while grinding, he was trying to cause a scene.

"Where was he at when we were suffering, uh!?" the old man stares at Andrew.

Andrew didn't say anything.

The old man said, "I guess your god is fake. Your god probably doesn't exist or maybe he's just made up. By your ridiculous words, you probably made up your own god. To trick us, and make us believe that he really exists." his words were full of doubts and attacks.

Andrew look coldly at the man that was speaking, he did not say anything, not yet. He did not care if he was speaking rudely towards him, but to hear his god name coming from his mouth, was obviously disrespectful to his god.

His shadow was moving on its own, the shadow can sense Andrew bloodlust. They were having a hard time focus on hiding in his shadows.

"Rrrhhgrr..." the shadow was desperate, and wanted to search for the cause of Andrew bloodlust.

Andrew dark expression was showing.

The old man looks at him, "And now I look at you. Who are you?" he said with a deep voice.

Everyone was thinking the same thing.

"Now I think about it, Who is he?" a random man voice.

"Yeah. He looks very handsome" a woman's voice.

Another woman said, "I never seen him before, why did we not know."

There were questions themselves, and why was Andrew there in the first place. But, Elizabeth quickly spoke, "He's ANDREW!"

Everyone was confused, they never knew anyone that has the name Andrew, except one.

"Wait! Father Andrew!?" someone was surprised by it.

Everyone started to think the name of Andrew, there was only one person with that name.

"THE PIG?"

"That fat ugly guy... Haha.."

"No way! He's way ugly."

Andrew was hearing the insult from everyone in the village. He tries to hide and not their negative words affect him. But his coldness and dark expression was showing. He clenched his fists tightly and his eyes narrowed.

Andrew remained silent, his mind was racing with anger and resentment towards the people who had insulted him.

The old man stood there and saw his expression and his silence. He smirked, "Well. Are you really Andrew!?" his voice was full of doubts.

The old man clearly tried to embarrass him, but if he was really Andrew, that he has more to say. The old man was waiting for his reply, but clearly he wasn't going too.

Before the old man was going to say another word.

Elizabeth quickly helps Andrew, "That's not Andrew that we all know. Can you not see that."

Andrew was grateful for Elizabeth's intervention. He looked at her with gratitude and appreciation, and felt a little better knowing she was on his side.

Andrew nodded. "Yes. I'm not the Andrew that you all know. I just arrived here not long ago, and these two show me around."

Everyone didn't bother asking again, they all knew that he wasn't father Andrew, the guy they see is way different, there were no similarities between him and father Andrew. The Andrew they see right now is way handsome, and more gentleman looking.

Andrew however was lying to them. He was still that Andrew that they know, but they don't know that God has changed his appearance, and now look more handsome then anyone in this village.

Andrew look at the old man.

"I know you have doubts, but this area was given to us. And God has shown me that this village was built by him, and he provided us home and land so we can all live happily."

He looks at the people, he was showing his serious expression, while trying to smooth and hook them in. His words were full of tricks, he was trying to persuade everyone.

Everyone started to believe him.

The old man sees everyone was falling for his words, not knowing that Andrew already hooked them with his cleverness. It didn't take him long to convince them, the more he added sweet and clever words.

Andrew said, "God wants you all to live a better life! So for now! This place is now the new MistWood!" his loud voice was full of seriousness and depth.

Everyone finally agreed.

"Yeahhhh!"

They all cheer for their new home.

Elizabeth smiled, "Yeahhhh!"

Jonathan also cheers, "It's our land now!"

Everyone went to see and find their own place to live on. They no longer have to go back to their old, and rusty houses, that hardy protects them. They all pick their own house to stay at, Joseph family move in to their new house.

Few moments later...

They all started to celebrate.

"YAhhh!!!" a loud cheering.

A lively medieval square at night, illuminated by the flickering torchlight, with villagers dancing and musicians playing traditional instruments beneath a starry sky.

While the party was going on, Joseph family was enjoying their new home.

It was two-story house, with a four bedroom and clean living room. It was a huge place for them and everything in the house was made of hard wood. Joseph was running around the place, "Zhahaha..."

Joseph likes his new home better.

Jonathan was holding his wife, while feeling happy staying in their new house. While they were busy looking at their son, Andrew was quietly behind them.

His presence was stealthily.

Andrew was staring at Elizabeth behind, while enjoying the view. Her ham was big while she wore her dress, her dress still showed her curves, and edges. Andrew's warm smile that hides his sinister cunnines expression.

"cough... I think I should leave you guys now." Andrew voice was gentle and nice.

Jonathan thanked him for helping them find a new home, "We appreciate for what you have done for us."

Andrew smiled. "Everyone deserves it. We all went through the same thing, now we won't have to suffer anymore."

Elizabeth said with nice and warm voice, "I'm glad that your trying to help us and this village. Without you, we might be still back at our old place."

Elizabeth didn't want to go back to that place again, with a new village that appears next to our village, it was now a new sign for them.

While Andrew was gone.

Joseph got excited," Dad can we all go celebrate!?"

Jonathan smiled, "Why not. Let's find out if there are clothes in this house."

Joseph jumped with joy, "YEAHHH!"

Elizabeth giggles, "Slow down."

They went to see what clothes they had.

When they saw the clothes, they were amazed at how clean and rich they are, it's like living a rich life.

Jonathan looks at his wife, "How do I look?" he was happy and nervous.

He never wears a fancy suit before, and it was too cool to be true. Elizabeth was delighted to see his handsome husband in those astonished clothes.

She admired his stunning looks, Johnathan was wearing medieval clothes, a rich deep color tunic with intricate embroidery, leather belt, and boots.

Elizabeth, "Stunning as the stars."

Jonathan smiled at her compliment, "Well thank you my love, but why do you not want to come?" he was about to go out and celebrate with her.

She didn't want to go yet, "I don't know. I need time to calm down first." her words were filled with nervousness and gentleness.

Her husband smiled, "Then I won't bother then. If you change your mind, you know where to find us." he hugged his wife.

She embraces the softness of her husband's warm arms.

Her son Joseph got excited while leaving with his father, "Let go! Ahaha..."

Jonathan said, "We won't come back in two days. So, don't worry about us and get some rest."

While they were leaving.

Elizabeth went back to her bed, and softly sat on her new bed. She wasn't sure what to do, she still hasitate. She was to scare about what happened, and the memories still haunt her.

"Gosh... Why do I still feel scared?" her hands were shaking. She was worried that the nightmare will not leave her, she looks back at the dress that was on her bed.

She was wonder if she wants to go or not.

"Should I try it on." her tone was warm and gentle.

Then she remembered Andrew.

The memories of him came into her mind, she was blushing. "Why did I think of him?"

She look at her clothes one more time.

"I guess it won't hurt to try it on."

....

Back at Andrew

Andrew heads towards his new church, heading towards uphill further away from the village, there it was. Up top of the hill hidden away, there standing tall. The church was now his home, everything inside was made with pure wood.

Woosh...

Andrew shadows return.

"Hmm..."

The shadows slowly merge with his shadows beneath his feet, and he was able to sync with it. He was able to see a image of their leader, a noble vampire. Its like he was there, and slowly see his hide out not far from them.

He smirks, "So, your the one who is causing this village pain. I guess I'll take care of you later, but for now."

Ding!..

"Hmm?"

Andrew heard another noise.

He looked in front of him, he slowly read the message of God.

[accept this gift from your god]

[Yes] [No]

Andrew accepted, and wondered what he got.

Bzzz...

A magic light drops an item on his hand.

One was a card and the other was a ring, the items were glowing bright purple. He didn't know why but, he felt something strange in the items he got.

"What is this?" Andrew was wondering why his god would give him this, was it his reward or a test.

Ding...

[ ring]

° This ring would increase your status to 900+

[Trap card]

° This card would grant you the ability to trap your enemy or allies in your territory.

° This card will surround your place, and turn it into your favor. The radius of this magic circle is 5 miles away.

Andrew was lucky now.

"Ahaa... God has really looked out for me." his tone was cold and deep, while his expression show sinister grind.

Andrew got a good card, and when he puts the ring on.

Bzzz..

"Auh!" he felt his power increase, and his mind was clear as day, while calming look at the ring, his shadows stretched more in the forest.

The shadows were now bigger and more powerful. He can sense their emotions more clearly, he can hear their voices.

Andrew went back to the church, while the sun was about to go down, further down on the mountain.

Soon it was about to be dark soon.

His shadow figures spread around the forest, to secure and watch the place at the same time. He will sense, if an enemy is nearby.

But he suddenly felt a buzzing sensation.

Bzzz...

Andrew sense someone was coming farther away, it wasn't an enemy, his shadow has reached the mysterious person. He synced with his shadow and saw saw through the shadow eyes, and when he open his eyes and saw who was coming.

"So it's you. I didn't expect to see you soon, but oh well. I guessed I'll have to make time for you..." he grin evilly, while his laughs were wickedly and he an ill-intentioned.

.....

[ Inside his church]

"Hinge!" the sound of the door opens up.

"Hello!" her voice echoes through the church.

Elizabeth slowly walks in dimly light medieval church with flickering candlelight casting gentle shadows on the stone walls and pews. Elizabeth stand gracefully, hands clasps together, waiting patiently. Her serene smile radiates calmness.

"Step-step." the sound of her walking calmly.

She was now stand near the altar.

Elizabeth serene smile and her elegant medieval attire, the soft candlelight accentuating her features and creating a warm glow.

Andrew was standing there while astonished at her beauty. He never thought that she would dress so beautifully, at night wearing that.

Elizabeth wears a tight white medieval with a low skirt, complemented by a lovely hat. Her posture is one of patience and grace, hands clasped in front of her.

She smiled while nervous.

"I came and need your guidance. I hope that I wasn't disturbing you?" She said it with warm and nervous voice.

However, Andrew been waiting for this moment. The atmosphere around him was dark and ominous, he has finally going through with his plan.

"No. It's just that I didn't expect you to come. I thought you might need more time, but it seems like there is something still bothering you, and you're desperately need my help." his voice was low and warm.

Elizabeth looks at Andrew softly and nods. "Yes. I been having nightmares, and it still huants me... So... I really need your help." her voice was gentle, but shaking.

She can't stop thinking about that time, and it still creeps her out, the thought of her being helpless and weak. She could not bear it any longer.

Andrew noticed she was frightened while shaking, he slowly got in front of her, "Please, come with me. Let's figure out what is causing you this much pain." his tone was warm and full of welcome, but it was just a sly word to hide his true motive.

Elizabeth smiled at Andrew, "Thank you very much." she was happy to go with him.

But she was unaware what Andrew's true ill-intentions were, Elizabeth was walking with Andrew towards his room. While his hand was softly touching her back and guiding her, and his sinister smile was showing. While the "Screech" sound of the door closes slowly, evil intentions were coming from that door.

Elizabeth doesn't know what she got herself into, she thought that she was getting help from Andrew. To ease her pain, and to talk with him about her problems. But it seems that Andrew had another evil hidden motive.
