Chapter 557: The beginning of the end

Blue

I sit on the floor and Gyles and Rex follow suit. The room is silent, the only sounds I hear come from our breathing. Making up my mind about this has set a clearer picture. Suddenly, there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel. One that I am going to find.

"There’s no going back from this,’’ Rex mutters glaringly.

I know that but I also don’t have a choice in this. I have to do this, I have to make sure that I end things in the coven. I am going to make sure of it. Even if I have to fight her with the same kind of magic she is using.

"I don’t want to go back, I want to do this."

I reach for the book again and this time, I open it in one swing. That energy I felt while holding it surges out of it and it feels like a heavy wind as it enters into my body. I know what this is and I know that I am the only one that can feel it. The first page of the book is a picture. A picture of a monster, glaring at me with sharp teeth. The drawing is in black and white but it feels so real. It feels so empowering. The kind that just takes all the fear out of me.

I always knew that this book was going to be the temptation that I would succumb to. Maybe that is why I was so upset and afraid of it. I didn’t want to give in to it and here I am, doing the one thing I didn’t want to do because of desperation. I literally have no choice. I have seen everything from the one day that I have been here and there is no way that I can do this fight on my own.

You know that saying ’At your own risk’? It feels like I am entering this portal on my own. My eyes stay fixed to the page, almost like it is the intention of the book. To keep me hooked until there is no escape. I take a deep breath as I feel Gyles’s hand rest on my leg. His touch is comforting and I know it is him instantly.

I reach for the end of the page and turn it, in search of something. There are no warnings except the scary monster on the front page. Almost like an easy trap that doesn’t leave disclaimers. Suddenly, I hear voices mixed with the energy.

We can help you.

Trust us.

All you have to do is give in.

These are easy demands. I know that I am ready for this. I am ready to find out what happened to the elders. I look for a spell that is most suitable. They are all incantations with instructions and power that only the book carries. I finally find a spell that seems plausible. The heading is bold and highlighted and it says THE INQUIRER.

I call out the words, knowing full well that once I do this, there is no going back and it is easy. Fucking easy, because I know what I have to lose if I don’t come out of this fight a winner. I have two people that are here, that I love so much, that I can’t live without and if I don’t win this, I will end up losing them.

That thought alone is the push I needed and I feel the transportation and the energy that takes me to the answers I know. I open my eyes and I am not in the room anymore. Gyles and Rex are with me. I recognize this place. We were just here a couple of minutes ago.

"This happened the first time I used the book. It is trying to show us something,’’ Gyles informs us.

I nod in response but before I can answer him, the door opens and I see Magnus as he walks into the room with the other elders.

"We must let her know that we know and she must be punished for it.’’ He bellows to Willow, who is the closest to him.

"How could she be so evil? How could she do the things that she did with no remorse." Rand sighs as they walk over to their seats. I watch them because a part of me already knows what this is about—or rather who this is about.

Analise.

"Can they see us?’’ Rex asks meekly.

I shake my head because I know how this works. Whatever we are seeing has already happened. I asked the book to show me what happened in the elder’s chamber. I wanted to know if they are dead and what I saw earlier actually happened. "This has already happened. We are about to find out what happened to them.’’

Just as I finish my sentence, the door opens and Badger walks in. It seems like a glitch because I am supposed to be seeing Badger, the person that should be walking into the room and for a second, that is who is but that changes and my mother’s eyes stare right at me. Almost like in this memory, she can see me here. I watch her and wait to see if she can actually see me but after a couple of seconds, she turns to face the elders and away from me.

"Are you guys seeing what I am?’’ I ask my mates.

Rex nods "your mother?’ Gyles answers deadpan. I see the resentment in his eyes. He really hates her and I don’t blame him. I hate her as much as he does and she gave birth to me.

"Why are we seeing her, what is going on here?’’ Rex asks.

I shrug because I actually don’t have the answer to this. Slowly, we all turn to the people in the room because this memory is where we will see everything that happened. This is the beginning of the end.
