Will of chaos

The statue of the Goddess Selene continued to give more energy to the crystal that formed around Caitlyn who now has a humanoid silhouette.

But it was at that moment that I realized that the crystal that was once bigger than me was shrinking and the space around us is starting to ripple.

“What is that!?” (I)

I wanted to look away but wasn’t able to as I felt my energy still being drained, all I know is that a breeze started to blow at some point carrying the scent of flowers.

I couldn’t look around, but I didn’t need to when the very scenery in front of me was changing, the Temple Communal room we were in was overlapping with another image that before long took its place as the space finally stopped rippling.

“But what is this…” (I)

“Why do you help that evil spawn!?”

“Mommy, Mommy, why don’t you wake up?”

“Damn you! Damn all Vampires!!!!”

“Die, you filthy child!!!!”

“AAAAHHHHH!!!!!”

“…” (I)

The setting looked like a flower garden, but there was something bizarre, there was part of a Palace or mansion where a woman with a crown on her head was lying on the ground still breathing while a little boy who must have been less than 6 or 7 years old tried to wake her up.

There was also in this large flower garden a place that looked like a street full of rubble with bodies sleeping while monsters were devouring them with only one old man looking up while screaming in terror.

I could also see a place where a middle aged man was on his knees with his eyes closed while crying, he was in between some trees like he was in some kind of forest, and he was talking bad about Vampires.

At that moment my energy finally stopped being absorbed and I started to look around at this garden with flowers that I had never seen, throughout this garden, there were several “scenarios” as if it were a stage representing several stories, with the only thing in common between all the stories being the tragedy.

“What’s all this!?” (I)

“Let her die, such a monster doesn’t deserve to be alive.”

“Look at everything she’s done, do you really think you know her!? A creature that pretends to be a child has actually lived hundreds of thousands of years.”

“She’s a monster, let her die, just interrupting this Awakening Ceremony all that accumulated energy will explode getting rid of her Soul.”

“Let this plague perish for all the harm it has done…”

“I don’t think we left the place, but the landscape is very realistic…” (I)

“One day it will bring calamity to you as well.”

“Imagine everyone you love dying while trapped in an eternal nightmare…”

“I don’t think I slept, I feel like I’m awake, so could it be an illusion?” (I)

“Let her die, someone like her doesn’t deserve to exist!!”

“It reminds me of the nightmare I was trapped in, the false sense of reality confuses perception.” (I)

From each of the various scenarios presented in this garden, a mist rose creating a half humanoid body as if it were some kind of Smoke Phantom or something.

There were several walking around me as they asked, demanded, and begged me to let Caitlyn die, it seems that interrupting the Awakening Ceremony was more dangerous than I imagined.

Of course, nothing I saw or heard could influence me, but I felt as if each of those scenarios carried some kind of emotion that I felt now in these creatures of smoke, these emotions were trying to affect me from the moment I looked at those scenarios or listened to the voices of these Ghost-like creatures.

Of course, trying to move my emotions isn’t as easy as it used to be, so I just ignore what I’m listening to as I try to make sense of this situation that’s never happened before.

Ding!

When the notifications come up a still of energy forms in front of me going in all directions including going through my body while erasing everything in the surroundings, the garden and the various tragic scenarios simply disappear as if they had never existed leaving only the Ghost-like Creatures of smoke behind still close to me.

When the wave of energy passed through them it was as if the smoke that made up their bodies was blown away revealing a completely black child both in body, clothes, and even in the eyes, this child was an identical image of Caitlyn.

When these children raised several rays of energy, they appeared from the sky, destroying them until there was nothing left, I didn’t even have time to say one last thing before disappearing.

“Thank you…” (Caitlyn)

I heard her voice as if whispering in my ear, then the space that was now pure white cracks and shatters revealing once again the room inside the Communal Temple where the Ceremony of Awakening was being finalized.

The Goddess statue that had moved earlier was back in its initial position and the Goddess Power was no longer interfering with the Awakening Ceremony.

I looked around and everyone was sleeping on the floor except for my sisters Elizabeth and Natasha who were looking at me with smiles on their faces.

I turn to face me where the red light is fading and what looks like a multifaceted mirror glass orb is floating where Caitlyn’s illusion once was.

Because of that, I couldn’t see what was inside, all I could see were the reflections in the mirror.

But what was being reflected in the various faces of the mirror was not what was around it, it was several scenarios of what I imagine to be Caitlyn’s memories, some of them were similar to what I saw in that garden moments ago.

“You did well, it looks like your emotional control is doing much better than you thought.” (Elizabeth)

“Now we just need to wait…” (Natasha)

While I was distracted by the orb of mirrors my sisters came to stand beside me without my noticing.
