Chapter 2. Encountered the Dark One

Nyx is the primordial goddess of the Night. She was the personification of the night. Most of the time, she makes an appearance with her chariot, pulled by two dark horses; she carries the mantle of night, covering the world with her brother/consort's darkness. Jasmine once told Sasha that Nyx ‘is the goddess of hellhounds as well as the goddess of the night.’

“Oh fuck! god, and goddess is real?” Scott glances at Sasha as they both start drawing back.

“Of course they are real!”

“Oh shit! All my years of being an Atheist, I was wrong. I should have known better they are real.” Scott draws out his Beretta. Crackling it he fired two shots at Nyx but the bullet just passed through her as if he was shooting into a smoke.

With a wave of the hand, Nyx knocked the Beretta off Scott’s hand and then let out a roar. The roaring was accompanied by a violent wind that carried Scott and Sasha away and slammed them both into the car. “I hate being shot at,” said Nyx as she made her way towards them.

“Oh fuck!” Scott exclaimed seeing Nyx coming towards them, her legs weren’t touching the ground. She was floating in the air. Scott quickly dragged himself up and then helped Sasha to her feet. “What type of weapon can we use to kill that bitch?” asked Scott.

Before Sasha could open her mouth to speak, Nyx waved her hand again. At the wave of her hand, they were both pinned to the car. They struggled to move but they couldn’t.

“What in the hell is going on!” Scott let out a loud cry. His mind flashed back to the question Hannah once asked him: ‘Do you believe in gods or supernatural creatures?’ “Oh fuck!” he exclaimed again. “This shit is fucking real!”

Nyx approached Scott. She stood in front of him and then cast her gaze at him. With a touch in his chest, he began to gasp for air. At this time he was able to move his body. He fell to his knees with his left hand placed on the car as he continued to gasp for air.

Nyx then glances at Sasha with a smile and then said to her, “If you want to save him, fuck him.” After she had said this, she disappeared into a cloud of thick black smoke freeing Sasha from the car.

Hastily she reached out for Scott and helped him to his feet. “Are you alright?” she asked. At this time, Scott has stopped gasping for air. He stared back at Sasha and opened his dry throat to speak. “What the hell was that?”

“We need to get the hell out of here before she comes back.”

“How are we supposed to kill gods if they do exist?”

“I have no fucking idea. Jasmine might know. Get in the car let’s get the hell out of here.” Sasha quickly slammed the door open and helped Scott get into the car. She quickly rushed to the driver’s side and slammed open the door. After she had gotten in, she hastily turned the ignition and zoomed off.

“The goddess said something to you before you disappeared.” Scott glances at Sasha with curiosity on his face.

“And what the hell was that?” Sasha fixes her eyes on the road focusing on the wheel and at the same time pretending she heard nothing.

“She said and I quote: ‘If you want to save him, fuck him.’ What type of fuck was she talking about?” Scott glances at her and continued, “As in, I want to know if she wants you to like: fuck me fuck me?”

“I have no idea what she meant.”

“Perhaps she wanted you to fuck me over like to kill me.”

“Can you just hush? We need to get as far as we can from any one of these gods and goddesses. I have no idea how to kill them.”

“Then who knows how to kill them?”

“Jasmine does. So hush now and let me focus.”

Scott decided to let Sasha focus on the wheels. He started whistling a song. Suddenly his body began to burn inside as if he had been cooked alive. “Stop the car,” he let out an agonizing scream but Sasha ignored him thinking he was acting up.

“I said stop the damn car!” Scott yelled. He started dragging the steering with Sasha. He was out of control and losing his mind as well.

“What the heck is wrong with you?” Sasha snapped back at him. She struggles to steady the steering but Scott becomes so powerful that she can’t control the wheels anymore. The car skidded off the road and went across the bridge of about 12ft.

As the car landed below the bridge, smoke started oozing out from the bonnet. Sasha managed to crawl out of the car expecting Scott to do the same but he was stuck.

After a while of waiting for him to crawl out, she realized something had gone wrong. She started screaming for his name. She quickly went to the passenger’s side and tried opening the door.

The door was stuck too. “Oh shit!” she exclaimed trying as hard as she could to open the door and save her partner. But the harder she tried the lesser result she got.

Suddenly she caught a glimpse of Scott’s eyes from the window of the car. His eyes glowed red and then enormous red wings sprouted from his back ripping out the roof of the car Scott flew out from the ripped-out roof of the car and then landed on an almond tree close by.

“What the hell?” Sasha started drawing back.

Suddenly the enormous wings disappeared, forcing Scott to lose his stance and crash into the car.

Scott was awakened by a soft melody coming from the TV downstairs. He slowly opens his eyes only to realize he’s back in the castle, in the same guest room Jasmine allowed him to stay in. As he attempted to get up, Sasha held him down gently. “You need rest,” she said. She has been seated beside Scott since he was brought home by her.

“How long have I been asleep?”

“Three days?” she replied.

“What! Three days?”

“Yes, three days.” Sasha replied and then brought her face closer to his, “Did you remember what happened?”

“I crashed into the car, that’s what happened.”

“Anything else?”

“Nothing for now,” Scott replied looking away. He didn’t want to mention dragging the steering with Sasha. He just doesn’t want to be blamed for what happened.

“Did you remember Nyx telling me to fuck you if I must save you?”

“What about it?” Scott turned and faced Sasha. He was filled with curiosity to find out what she had to say about it.

Sasha cleared her throat and opened her mouth to speak. “When I brought you home, I told Jasmine everything that happened and how we were attacked by the goddess of the night. She smiled and said that the goddess of the night didn’t attack us but released a gift to us in person. I was confused and worried at the same time but she made it known to me that Dracula's descendants also known as the Clandestine Clan made a deal with Nyx to help keep the balance of Dracula. To seal this deal, Dracula’s kin has to choose a male mortal whom Nyx will bestow her gift on and...”

Scott couldn’t help but push Sasha’s words back to her throat with a question. “What deal do they make?”

“She didn’t tell me. She said I have nothing to worry about it that I should focus on you.”

“Focus on me how?” John enquired.

“You have part of Nyx’s powers in you. You sprouted out enormous red wings like hers. You have been asleep for three days going through the main transition of her powers in you. My work is to help the transition work perfectly.”

“How are you to do that?”

“To fuck you as Nyx said.”

“And if you don’t?”

“You will die painfully.”

Scott giggles and slowly sits up and then leans his back on the wall. “I need to speak with Jasmine.”

“She has asked me to stay with you.”

“Then call Mr. Smith to go fetch her. I need to speak with her.”

“I am not sure she will be doing that now.”

“Why not?”

“She is meeting with some of the Dracula’s kins.”

“When?”

“The meeting is already going on.”

“Where?”

“Here in her castle.”

“Then that makes it easy for me to see her.” Scott quickly climbed down the bed and started heading towards the door.

Sasha tried stopping him but it didn’t end well for her. She held Scott by the shoulder to grab him. Swiftly Scott turned. His eyes glowed red which terrified Sasha at first but she was stiff-necked trying to stop Scott by all means.

“Get your hands off me!” Scott roared. His voice sounded like the running of mighty waters. His countenances change with pure evil in his eyes. The enormous wings sprouted out again and this time it slammed Sasha to the wall. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to,” he said and then turned to leave.

He started heading to the great hall where he was hearing voices. His hearing ability has been enhanced after Nyx touched his chest. He was able to hear from far away when he focused. He doesn’t know how he’s doing it but it’s working. As he approached the entrance of the great hall, he held the door handle and gave it a soft push.

Swiftly all the vampires turned and cast their gaze at him as he walked into the great hall.

“You are not supposed to be here, not yet.” Jasmine rushed to stop him but he grabbed Jasmine and held her down to one of the tables. “What are you hiding from me?” he asked.

The vampires present were 24 in number signifying the 24 tribes of Dracula. They quickly rose to their feet snarling and wanting to fang on Scott.
