25 leave me

Third pov

"Sir, the old clairvoyant is looking for you."

One of the servants said

Ralph was perplexed that a clairvoyant would bother to visit him. There is no way in hell that the old lady will suddenly show up.

That clairvoyant is too old to bother visiting someone, though she is one of the important witches of the Benjamin clan.

Ralph hurriedly went to the hall where the old lady was waiting.

As he opened the door. The old lady is standing with a hunched-back posture.

"I know that you were wondering why this old lady is right here in front of you."

The old lady laughed a bit. She's too old to describe, yet she could still manage to visit here. That's what Ralph is thinking.

"Yes, you didn't know how confused I am when I hear my servant say that you were here to visit me. Because I know that there is a deep reason why you bother to be here to see me. By the way, do you want something to drink or eat first before we talk?"

Ralf said.

"I don't have time for everything; don't bother Ralph. I'm here for an important reason because last night I saw the prophecy that the red full moon is near as I see in my vision. I'm sorry, Ralph, because it would be in your term. Yet we both know that it would come, and I guess all of the

The Benjamin clan is ready for this. This is the time that the power of the choosing one would pass, and this is the time that the portal of the other side would be open, and for sure, a lot of those creatures could pass through the portal to here, in the human world."

Ralph took a deep breath; of course he was aware of this. For over how many centuries had passed and many leaders of the Benjamin clan died without experiencing this, he thought this life of his was the same, but now that this clairvoyant has reminded him of this phenomenon, it will come in his life. He wanted advice because he was not ready. Why, and all of my life, why has it to be now?

"Child, I know that it would be a huge battle for all of the Benjamin clan, especially you and your family. But you don't have any other choice, child. Whether you like it or not, you have to ask for the help of all of your clan. It doesn't matter now who could be the next leader. What's important is that all of you could be ready for the next battle. Because you have to win over those creatures that god gave a chance to escape in their prison. It's not about you anymore. It's all about your whole clan and the rest of the humans living on earth. Have mercy on those who were innocent and have no idea what's going on."

Xena

After the incident yesterday, I didn't decide not to be absent from school and take care of my father.

He was still lying in bed. He needs an oxygen tank to breathe. So even if there are a lot of things inside my head that bother me, I had to put it aside for now.

Yesterday, when I felt someone choking me, I'm very scared that I might end up dead. However, I guess that was maybe because of some stress because of a lot of things that happened yesterday.

"Dad, you have to wake up. There's a lot of things I want to tell you. Because yesterday I was hospitalized as well, due to a heart attack. Yet I just suddenly woke up like nothing happened.

The doctor was confused, and so am I. I've been checked by doctors, but they said I'm completely fine. They couldn't explain what happened to me yesterday.

Noah and Liam bombard me with messages asking how my condition and my dad are. They ask how many times they have accompanied me since yesterday, as well as Zimon. Damn, that man is more annoying than the twin. I bet he's still outside the room. He just showed up because he knew it was time to eat.

He didn't listen. Though I have urged him many times to go home, Yes, I appreciate it, but is it too much? He said he was doing this because he liked me. Though it's clear that I showed him that I don't have any interest in him and that Seth is my crush, But as a brat for all of his life, I guess Zimon couldn't understand what the words 'no' and 'I don't like you" meant.

"Dad, please, you have to wake up."

As I stared at my dad, I noticed that his finger moved.

I panic. I was about to rush out when he grabbed my wrist.

"Xena, listen, my princess. I could feel I was about to leave you. So I have to give you this. It might help you one day. I'm sorry if until the last day I want to hide you from them. But if I refuse death, I'm afraid that the other half of me would be in danger too. I don't know what's happening to her by now, but I hope she regains her power after I go. For sure she'll find you."

Xena's father gives her a necklace with a huge pendant of bloody snowdrops. Then tears fell from Xellion's eyes.

Is it her father's concern regarding my mom? Is she looking for me?

"I love you, my princess."

The computer indicates her father's breathing suddenly draws a line, and a second later, a doctor and nurses panic.

I wanted to panic too, but I couldn't move. I'm not ready for this. Why so sudden? I know that he's weak, but I don't know that he'll leave me this soon.

Dad... No... Please... I know that you know that I still need you. I'm not ready for this. What happened yesterday? Why all of a sudden did you end up like this? What triggered you?
