Chapter 14 - THE CAVE

The gate churned, pulsing and radiating, amber lights gushing through it's surface, the gate was a big round flat slab of stone with magic runes engraved on it, it covered up an opening in the wall of the same shape. This one wasn't under the school, it was somewhere else in a cave deep in the vast forest of Australia. A crack materialized, moving with a relatively fast speed cutting a fine diameter across the round slab, The opening was so little that even air can't make it through but not for the Evil inside.

The sunny day became gloomy a purple cloud forming above, thunder and rumbles sounding in the sky, it all happened in an instant, something so sudden that locals could talk about this for the rest of the year. Heavy wind tore through the whole vicinity the gate churning and chiming more than ever, it then reduced to a deep pulsing sound almost like it was a nuclear reactor waiting to blow up. 

Through that thin crack a gold brown shadowy figure escaped, it crashed on the floor and began flapping, going berserk on ground level around the vast cave crashing on the rocks and stone walls and causing havoc , another shadow came through the crack, this time instead of flapping around it simply stood, it's distorted figure began to materialize a more defined shape, the shape of a human and within an instant the shadow around it dispersed revealing a woman, she was completely naked but had an emerald skin the color of Jade and a long jet black hair that swept the fall wherever she walked, she wasn't exactly beautiful but wasn't exactly ugly either, she had long talon like nails the color of silver, it was JEZEBEL, the deceiver. 

'Quit flapping around fish, you are going to bring down the whole cave before the others get out' it was her speaking, her voice a beautiful deep texture of feminity, she was speaking to the shadow that had escaped earlier, it was still trashing around and this sent rocks crashing on the floor from the roof of the cave. The trashing stopped abpurtly the figure was now floating taking it's shape, the shadow around it dispersed revealing a half man half fish, he had long gold hair and pointy ears, skin the color of milk, tail the mixed colors of the rainbow with detailed black appearing around it on intervals, he was a very beautiful creature, this was DAGON, Demon of the sea.

'I was just stretching my limbs don't worry' said the creature giggling, he had a soothing light voice, he was floating, flapping his tail to move around the air. Jezebel simply laughed and moved forward each steps of hers accompanied by a tink sound to show that she was actually made of Jade. Just then the ground began to quake, it was as if a stampede of a herd of hippos were approaching, a figure zoomed into the cave bringing with it a cloud of dust and shower of debris. 

'This beast, always has to show his degeneracy , same nuisance even after a thousand years' Said Jezebel as she stood clouded by the influx of dust, she had lost sight of everything around her too. A glow of blue light was seen and then with a great gust of wind, the dust smoke dissapeard revealing another individual standing with them, it was an overly tall man with a very long, densed hair that covered up most of his face except his eyes and nose, it spared nothing for his mouth so he talked through it, he was overly huge and overly talland wore a skirt made of animal skin, his fingers long and dirty and his teeth as brown as earth,he was a beast.

'Trust Nebuchadnezzar the tyrant to make an entrance' said Dagon as he floated towards the beast, it simply grunted and spoke unintelligible words.

'He said, he was locked up in the realm under a magic school in Europe, but managed to escape' Dagon said as he caressed the beast's mane, it grunted unintelligible words again.

'He also says that LEGION has been eliminated' Dagon added.

'Not surprised, he was weak as ever and it's a miracle that you could still understand the beast even after a thousand years' said Jezebel.

'I am that amazing' boasted Dagon as his tails glowed momentarily.

'Now then...' Jezebel said as she pulled out a strand of hair and blowed on it, it flew and suspended it's self and with a quick poof it shape shifted into a little Jade creature, it resembled a bee and a moth at the same time. 'Jade soldier i need you to go outside and find me answers' she added, the insect zoomed off instantly.

'To blend into society we have to take on a non suspicious form' Said Dagon as he floated to Jezebel's side.

'Don't be ridiculous my dear Damon, leaving here will only notify the witches about us, this cave was made exactly for this' Jezebel replied.

' we can totally leave is anyone powerful enough to stop us? , The witch that sealed us off is gone toots' said Dagon smiling eerily.

'The universe doesn't just leave that slot empty, there's a big possibility that someone is gearing up to take her place, besides LEGION is dead, that's something that should serve as a warning' she replied.

'Oh come on Legion was a weak wretch, a novice witch with the right spells could capture him, but i guess you are right, we have to wait this out' he said, floating back to the beast , there he pulled out one of his scales and dropped it, it quickly shape shifted into a little mer person, particularly a mermaid.

'Go find answers' he said and she too sped away.

'We will wait for a quick survey update from the messengers and then we plan our next step towards world domination' said Jezebel as let out a ful chortle, her laugh echoing in the cave.
