Valley of Darkness

I Need to stop this pain! I feel like I am being emotionally ripped apart. I feel like I have voices in my head trying to guide me and direct me. I feel like my mind is splitting in two. This is worse than when I started to gain the power of mind linking pack members and those who are not pack members.

I close my eyes and want to scream. As I close my eyes I see myself somewhere else. I am in a field covered in beautiful flowers. I walked around for what felt like forever. I didn’t know where I was going, or what I was looking for. I continued to feel drawn into the field as if I was searching for something. After feeling like I was going in circles I came upon a giant hill. I heard voices on the other side. They sounded like they were in pain. I felt as if my lungs were punched in my chest. The pain was so excruciating yet it wasn’t my pain?

I heard a woman screaming for help. The sounds reflected by what sounded like a boy and several more people. I ran towards the hill. I nearly fell forwards, doing a “Lizzy Maguire.” When I got to the top of the hill, I nearly froze in horror at the sight I am seeing! There, in a valley that looks covered in charred rocks and ground burnt like ash are several crosses. On these crosses are multitudes of people. I can see my mother, brother, and cousins among them. I fall to the ground weeping. Their screams of agony pierce my soul. I run towards them to help them. As I approach, something powerful, like an invisible electric wave knocks me on  my ass. It’s like there is a force field surrounding them. I push against it and continue to get thrown away from it. Something whispers to me saying “Twin power.” Could Minerva help me with this? Are we really that powerful? Could we possibly break this spell and bring peace to the dead that are crying in torment here?

The more I try to fight it, the more it hurts. Suddenly I hear a womans voice from the other side. I have not heard her since I was a child.

“Tabitha, help us!”

“How?” I ask her.

“Tabitha, we’re trapped here. You must free us! You must awaken us!”

“I cannot resurrect the dead? Are you daft?” I yell at her. She gives me a disapproving glare.

“Tabitha, we’re not truly dead! We are locked in a room that has a dark curse on it.”

“I know, when I was visiting the packhouse, Lucius tried to kill me and throw me in that room!”

“We’re not really dead! Everything you might have heard is not completely true! We were attacked, we were beaten, you did escape as a child. Sinclaire took us and locked us away in that room with a curse on it. The room feeds him our powers while we are locked in a cursed state. The curse makes us look dead and deformed. He did that not just to me but, also your brother because we were more powerful than him! Your brother would have been Alpha soon, and your brothers witches powers were also coming into bloom. Your father did not get the powers but, all you children did. Your brother would have been the most powerful Alpha in history. Sinclaire found out about your grandmothers side of the family. He already coveted my powers as a twin but, learning about Molly’s heritage and her ties to the dark witch Alania, it was like a dream come true for him. We have been suffering here for years. He and Lucius have been feeding off the magic blood of your brother. They found a way to twist his powers to give them darkness in life. Whatever they’re doing, it goes way beyond creating sex slaves. They’re working with someone far worse. They come into the room and whisper about how Rylan’s Alpha Hybrid magic is feeding someone extremely evil. They’re trying to revive the first Luthor Alpha, the one that was a curse on this world. They’re trying to use Rylan’s blood to do it.

“Why not use their own?”

“They know their bloodline has grown weak, the first Luthor Alpha was a Hybrid, part dragon. He could shape shift at will into either a wolf or a dragon. He was extremely powerful. The Lycans not only stripped him of his royalty but, put a curse on the family line to strip away the dragon. Dragons are more powerful than any other creature and can also be evil to the core depending on the dragon. Over the centuries, the Lycans have scoured the earth exterminating them. Those who have a pure heart are kept alive but, cannot shift, a spell is put on them to prevent their shifting. Those who are evil in heart are killed.

“Oh my god!” I screamed at this news. “I thought it was all myth!” I shouted.

“No, it’s not.” She said in a grave face.

I looked at my brother, I saw his face different than the others. I saw his eyes glow. He let out a scream different than the others like he was being ripped apart. His eyes glowed bright for a long moment then he hung his head, as if he died. I wanted to cry. I saw what she meant.

“They’re feeding again.” She said while she hung on the cross. I saw tears in her eyes while she looked at my brother.

“I will find a way to break this! I will avenge you and bring you back! We found Minerva! We found Verona, Carter is a filthy piece of shit but, maybe if we can show him all this, and that you could possibly be alive, maybe things will be different.” I tell her in thought. She suddenly spits at me.

“How dare you! He is your father, young lady! How dare you talk like that about him!” she growls

“He isn’t shit! You have no idea who he has become! I was raised by a drunken deadbeat dad named “Warrior Joseph” who used me as a punching bag, has tried to sleep with me, and oh the kicker! Got into gambling debt with Alpha Carter and tried to Sell me! To Carters whore house! Guess who also tried to rape me as well! The Mad Lunatic Alpha Carter! He didn’t even recognize me as his daughter! He was driven so Mad with what he thought was the death of his family. He didn’t even recognize his own daughter.” I growled at her.

She stared at me in shock, she then let you a screaming wail looking like her heart was being ripped out.

“I swear in the name of the goddess! I will get free of here, and I will rip the Luthor Alpha bloodline to shreds for what they have done to our family” she said with a roar. I knelt down next to the invisible forcefield and lowered my head. I was meeting my real mother. They’re not dead, they’re locked in a twisted dark curse that makes them look dead and disfigured. I know that the whole family needs to see, they need to know! We need to defeat the Luthor Alpha’s first, we need to free my mother and brother. We need to free everyone!
