The Beginning And Betrayed (3)

❤️ The Beginning and Betrayed (3) ❤️

Zelina's eyes widened at that revelation.

"Are you kidding me?" She asked still not believing it.

"Do I ever joke?" Adalinda said in a serious tone which made Zelina think she had offended her.

"I am sorry if what I said offends you. I just find it hard to believe you of all people will do me a favour." Zelina pleaded.

Adalinda twitched in anger but she didn't say a word.

"Well, I was planning to go there with my friends, we know the road that will take us there, but you decided to surprise me by passing me your crown so I just want to return the favor." Adalinda said getting up from Zelina bed. "I'm now the Queen and my presence will be required always from now henceforth so the ball is in your court Zelina."

"Thank you, you know how I have been searching for powers for too long. If I have enough power I can make myself walk again." Zelina said with joy written all over her face.

Adalinda huffed and unlocked the door from behind. She was about to open the door when Zelina's voice stopped her.

"Where can I find this River of Darkness, please? And how do I get to meet the Princes of Hell?" Zelina pleaded. "And don't leave me hanging like you always do?" she added quickly. Ever since they were little, Adalinda had always made sure she kept Zelina in suspense. Like one time she hid her favorite kitchen knife and when Zelina asked her where it was, her answer was simple 'Where water never touches. I have given you a clue Zelina, find it.'

Adalinda turns to face her with a smirk on her face.

"Now, that wouldn't be fun my dear Zelina. I have told you about a powerful River, I even left a clue for you, so finding the River of Darkness is up to you." She told her and before Zelina could speak, she was out, shutting the door behind her.

Zelina shook her head and went to lock her door once again and lifted herself to her bed.

Adalinda had told her she had left a clue for her so what clue could her sister be talking about?

She wondered and pondered over what Adalinda had told her and then suddenly she gasped out.

Adalinda friends. Gurwolf and Barwolf. Adalinda had told her that she and her two friends know the road that leads to the River of Darkness. Gurwolf and Barwolf are the clue. The only thing is to make friends with them and follow them to the River of Darkness.

It was simple, make friends with Gurwolf and Barwolf.

PRESENT TIME:

Dark and Gon both stare at each other as the stone keeper carries on.

"Zelina became very good friends with Gurwolf and Barwolf and when it was time, they all left to search for the River of Darkness. After almost three hundred years of searching, they came across the River of Darkness and met Belphagor who offered them great powers but seeing the beauty of Zelina after he had asked her to remove her veil made him have a change of heart. For their powers they should give him Zelina. Of course Gurwolf and Barwolf agreed and they fought with Zelina, she could have won against the wolves but for her legs, she was defeated. Belphagor kept to his own end of bargain. When they left, he summoned his other four brothers where they had their fill with Zelina and then threw her into the River of Darkness," the keeper of Stone said. "Though Zelina survived what they did to her but having felt betrayed by Gurwolf and Barwolf and what Belphagor and his brothers did to her, she killed herself."

"Yeah, we saw everything when we were out of her womb, one look at her face and everything she has been through was shown." Gon said. "Don't remind us, we are trying to forget that part."

"But we destroyed the dragon kingdom and killed Adalinda and that useless father of hers before burying the kingdom under water," Dark said counting his fingers as if he didn't know they were five before. "So how come the one we saw today isn't Zelina as you said?" He asked.

"You are still not getting it, do you?" He asked and at Dark and Gon glared he continued without waiting for their reply. "The one with the most evil, traitorous dark soul isn't Adalinda, but Hydra."

"Hydra? The last sister?" Raziah asked this time.

The keeper of Stone nodded his head. "She had planned it. She has always been jealous of Zelina's beauty and that drove her to come up with a plan. You see, there is no River of Darkness, it was Hydra plan all along with the help of Belphagor. The one Gurwolf and Barwolf had brought her to is the same one the Princes of Hell dwells in. She knows Zelina will pick interest once she hears about that River and how powerful it is so she told Adalinda who then told Zelina. Hydra drew the map that they will use in finding the River and that was why it took them king to find it, she was the real witch. Knowing how beautiful Zelina is, after she killed herself, she stole her face and became Zelina. Adalinda isn't the villain but she made it look as if she was, though Adalinda was wicked but Hydra topped it all. The real River of Darkness is up there in the sky, that's where the fifth Prince, Lucifer, is being held captive and that's where you come in Raziah. What she took from you. The story Chaos had told you, all isn't true. First of all, it is true that you and Dark with his twin brother were reborn, I mean, that's why I'm here. Though, then they were not twins but just one. Chaos is a friend of Lucifer but you and Amaya are the daughters of Lucifer."
