Chapter 236: THE REALM BETWEEN WORLDS

Chapter 236 THE REALM BETWEEN WORLDS

“ Seraphina where is this place?” Haven spun around trying to discern the new surrounding she was in. Besides her, Avena was doing the same. Just now they had been at Haven’s pack house and then they appeared here in the blink of an eye.

The ground beneath them was soil too soft even for their feet and the air around them felt like it had come to a stand still. In fact not only the air, everything around them felt like it’s has come to a stop— or never moved to begin with. Time seemed to have come to a complete stop in this place or at least, that was what Haven thought as she looked around trying to make idea of where they had ended up.

They were standing on a straight path which stretched for as long as the eye could see. Haven couldn’t see the beginning nor the end of the path. The ground which Haven assumed was soil was dull pink in color and had small crystal – like stones laying here and there. Other stones were crushed into smaller particles and scattered throughout the length of the road.

Above them, the sky had a pink hue to it, and had a few clouds with silver linings which looked like they were painted there. There was no sound nor movement of anything. Nothing was here except for the three of them.

The whole scene felt magical. It made Haven feel like she was in some sort of painting.

“ Where is this place?” Avena who was standing besides her asked in awe. Her silver eyes reflected the pink color. She had never seen anything like this before. It was simply beautiful.

“ The realm between worlds” Seraphina’s short answer made both girls turn to stare at her.

“ Realm?” They both asked simultaneously.

Seraphina nodded. “ Yes, Realm. This is the realm between different pasts, presents and futures.”

“ Wow.. it’s so beautiful. The whole place feels magical.” Avena gawked at her surroundings in wonder.

“ Why have we come here?” It was Haven who spoke up. She had a feeling they weren’t just here to admire the beauty of this place.

“ To find your true selves.” Seraphina replied solemnly.

“ Find our true selves? I don’t- we don’t understand.” Avena reprased her sentence. “ Can you please explain what you mean?”

“ You both have different paths to walk on. From here on, you’ll both have to go your separate ways and discover who you truly are. Only then will you be able to fully access your true powers and save the world.”

Both girls stared at Seraphina like she has grown two heads. What is she even saying? Discover selves? True powers? Save the world? She must have definitely lost it.

“ You’ve lost it, haven’t you?” It was Haven who spoke up. “ What gibberish are you saying? Is this some sort of joke?” The serious look on Seraphina’s face was enough to make her realize she wasn’t joking.

“ Wait are you being serious?” Avena came up besides Haven.

“ Do you think I’m here for play?!” Seraphina frowned. “ You both have no idea what is coming. There’s a war looming over us all. A fight between good and evil and between light and darkness. Do you think I’ll want to waste my precious time and come here just to start joking with you?” Disappointment filled Seraphina’s face. “ Being Lucious’ mate, I really expected better from you.”

Hearing her mention Lucious’ name made Haven clench her fist but this wasn’t the time for that right now. She had to know what Seraphina was talking about.

. “ A war? Fight? I don’t understand. Why’s there going to be a war? Tell me Seraphina!” She half- yelled. Right now she was more confused than ever. What war was looming over them?

Seraphina sighed. “ I really don’t have time to explain anything to anyone of you. “ Her eyes darted between the two sisters. “ I could only bring both of you here using the power I tapped by holding you both earlier. It’s almost used up now, so this is where I’ll have to stop. You both have to activate your powers and find your own path. Only then will you be able to save the ones you love and cherish.”

“ Here.” She quickly shoved some sort of stones into each of their palms. “ I’ll be kicked out of this realm very soon and as I am, the energy will be just enough for you to find your ways. I’ll be waiting to see you back at our world very soon—” She didn’t even get to complete her sentence when for the first time since Haven got here, she felt the air around her begin to move. It moved at an alarming speed, creating a small tornado of dust which grew with each blink of an eye

“ No matter what happens, make sure to do your part!” Seraphina yelled amidst the loud and fierce wind. “ The fate of the world lies with you both!!”. Her feet began to move as she was getting pushed back by the force of the wind.

“ Wait.. Seraphina..” Haven’s hair flew every which way in the fierce wind, making it hard to see a thing in the stirred up dust. Seraphina couldn’t just go, Haven had a lot of questions to ask her. She can’t let her leave just yet. The howling wind pushed her back and forth, making it hard to even stand her ground. And her flying hair made it even harder for her.

“ Seraphina!” She yelled out and forcibly moved away some of the hair covering her face just in time to see Seraphina being carried away by the wind.

Horror began to settle when she saw Seraphina disappear before her very eyes. The only person who could answer her all her questions was gone. Now what?

Besides Haven, Avena was also struggling with the fierce wind. She felt Haven’s hand clasped hers as she former tried coming up besides her. The wind moved much faster as she did so and effortlessly pushed her backwards, putting some distance between the two. It grew bigger and bigger, engulfing both of them in it’s fury.

“ Nooo!! Avena!” A horrified Haven tried her best to hold onto her sister’s hand. She had just found her, she couldn’t lose her too.

“ Don’t let go of me!” She yelled out to an already panicking Avena. Unlike Haven, Avena wasn’t the strong type. She was fragile, timid, soft and much more reserved. The thought of getting lost in the middle of no where freaked her out beyond imagination.

“ Haven!!” She shrieked, feeling herself being hoisted above the ground litte by little. “ No!! Haven!!”

“ No please.” Haven cried feeling Avena’s hand slowly loosen from her grip. “ No please.. no.. nooo.” Avena’s hand loosened and finally slipped from Haven’s grip causing her to gasp in horror

“ AVENA!!!!” She screamed watching her shrieking sister being flung far away till she finally disappeared from her sight. Haven too was hoisted away in another direction as she

screamed her lungs out till finally, everything blacked out.
