86 Hydōr

Adhiti

Climbing up to Phrixus's back, holding on to him surely. I glanced at Almira and Andrew down making sure that their queen will ride safely to her voyage. I make it sure that I will see and make things right. I shall warn them about their doings. They cannot execute people and let them eaten by sea monsters… those adorable creatures are not evil.

Even Hydōr killed lot of people so that the evil darkness can take the soul. Damn it! Death can't even get contact to the souls to bring them to paradise. Somehow, like a cellphone he got tapped and his link got hijacked! Death is Soul's twin brother. I remember them and had talked to them for a while.

"I will come home as soon as possible. If Nick arrived send me a bird." I told Almira.

"As you wish." Almira curtsied. I turn to Andrew.

"And you? Any news about Mom and Dad?" he shook his head looking all worried suddenly. "Let me know if you got something."

"Take care. Don't let them do the same to those people." I smiled at him. "And punch Prince Wade for me. He tried to hook up to my baby." He pulled Almira to his arms. I chuckled as I shook my head.

"That was back to the party. And yes, he like Almira." She told him.

Phrixus started running as he flew up and up while Blaze is on my arm holding on. Luther flew with us as we headed to Hydor… to the west. I close my eyes and feel the breeze of the wind as we flew up and up. Blaze wails excitedly as she spread her wings. Soon enough, she will know how to fly by herself. It takes few time to be on the west.

In the very middle of the wide ocean, I saw the familiar ship of Hydōr that has a flag of a mermaid. Phrixus wails and I can see under, the gigantic kraken and the cries of the woman and the girl inside the cage. I can see few people crying and shouting to let them go.

But as soon as they heard Phrixus's wails they all stop even the Kraken. I pull my scarf up to my nose. I kiss Blaze on head and let her be with Phrixus's back. I push up myself as I stand on Phrixus's back keeping my balance. I look down on the clear ocean to see the Hydra popping his head up.

"I will handle this and please keep them safe, because the King is telling his guards to shoot you."

They did tried to shoot us with their arrows but I blew it with my wind and the arrows goes back to them hitting them but not enough to kill them. I jump off from Phrixus as I landed down on the slimy gigantic head of the Kraken. The ship moves away because of the waves as it scares the people.

"It's okay, my pretty one." I patted the head of the Kraken. "They won't hurt you while I am here." The Kraken make a deep monstrous whine like the sound of the whale. "Did they feed you those people?" the Kraken seemed to shake his head. "So they died there, drowning and my babies didn't even eat them? Damn, Abyss took their souls."

I slide down from his head until I hit the water. I didn't drown or fall down but I feel like walking through the water. I am not even stepping on one of his tentacles. I walk toward the ship as the water grows bigger and lifted me up to the big ship. I jump off until I hit the floor of the ship.

I look at them and they are all away from me. I glanced at the cage of a women and the child crying.

"How dare you enter my ship!" King Whales gritted as his man move forward pointing the spears to me. I sigh disappointed. I thought that we could talk at each other like the way with laughing and nice conversation.

"I thought that we could have a very beautiful conversation, King Whales. You see once we run into each other again. So here I am…" spreading my arms. "Visiting you with your little…" I glanced at Wendy to Wade to Warren. "Family." Sardonically speaking. "You didn't get a chance to visit me on my new castle." I can see that King Whales eyes widens. He immediately bow at me and look up at me.

"Queen Adhiti of Era."

"Yes, yes…" I said bouncing my head. "I marry my love and killed the mad king who turns out to be the vessel of darkness. If anyone of you here, is one of the vessel of the darkness, I shall know."

"No one here is a vessel." The King said strongly as his knights put down their spears.

I walk toward the cage. I gently traces my fingers on the iron bars.

"I was once being in this cage." I told. "Seeing few people cheering for my death, seeing the Royal blood grinning to see the Kraken. Too bad that my children are not much of carnivorous." I look directly at Prince Wade who is all staring at me with full of loneliness and longing. Hungry for love. "For what crime did they commit?"

"The woman is a whore and the child was a bastard." The King stated.

"Don't you think that the child was given to this woman by the God?" I ask. Looking up the innocent child. "How many did you kill this day, King Whales?"

My Hydra and my Kraken squawked and the waters are responding to them. I squeeze my hand on the iron bars as it started heating. I boost up and my fire immediately melts the lock of the iron.

"Queen of Era you have no right to intervene in my ruling here."

"Yes. I don't have right to intervene as a Queen of Era, but as the one who give you this world and the universe, I have the right when another is intervening." What I mean is, Gods and Goddesses do not intervene on people's business but when it comes to another God or another Goddess who put things on people's business for their greed, I shall intervene.

"I don't even know how you could manifest the water even the fire and air, but you have no place here." I throw my head back and push the iron.

"You don't understand me, King Whales. I am Serina Goddess of Water. I am Odessi, Goddess of Fire, I am Zoeira Goddess of Earth, I am Aryanna, Goddess of Air. You can call me one of them." I started unwrapping my scarf showing my face to him. "I died Catastrophe in this ship."

I can see that everyone are gaping and their eyes are almost poking out from their face.

"But I am the only Goddess who have those Goddesses inside me. So now, who broke my sister's heart giving her pure loneliness and died in her shell?" I look directly at Prince Wade to King Whales. I don't know Serina's story but I knew one of them or even Prince Warren and Princess Wendy has something to do with it. "The Goddess of Water, gave your ancestor an affinity for it, yet here you are, using it in different way."

"I—" King Whales stammer and they all knelt down except King Whales, Princess Wendy and Prince Wade.

"I am not here to question your ruling , King Whales, but you keep killing innocent people seeking for their mistakes that you also made… that every one of you can commit." I said it very loud. The sea monsters behind me, squawks in agreement on me.

"How could you be the Goddess?" King Whales ask. I sigh and rolled my eyes. He is damn questioning me.

"I don't even know… you see, I just regain my memories. But it is none of your concern. I am the Goddess of Universe, Adhiti. I forgive you at this moment, and I shall not see people in this cage ever again. My children are not eating people. They died there drowning and their souls never make it to our paradise." I stare at King Whales. I can see darkness behind him, including to Prince Wade who is all so sweet and caring at all, but I can see shadows behind him that haven't eaten him yet.

King Whales forcibly kneel together with Prince Wade. I glare at Princess Wendy who couldn't take it and kneel out from her heart. I sigh and a very swift air blows and Luther is in front of me. My eyes widen to see that he is holding a spear in front of him. My eyes darted up to see a man in black cloak glaring down. Trying to kill me.

The two sea monsters started hyperventilating, wailing in anger who tried to kill me. Luther push the spear on the chains to free the woman and the child. I pull a dagger from my boots and throw it to the man who tried to kill me. It hit him and it bleeds him. My eyes widen to see that he is bleeding in the familiar color… green… purple… red…black.

I raise my hand as the water comes along and push the man down. They all cleared away as I run to it, grabbing as sword pointing it to the injured person on the cloak all covered up. I breathed, my chest pumping up and down.

The cloak seemed to move into smoke as it changes figure like a slimy thing. It gets bigger and taller. Is he death's competence? His face is a decayed skull, so gross.

"Holy shit, dude! You scared the hell outta me!" I blurted. I am just surprised that's all but I am not terrified on this creature. I gripped on the heavy sword and pointed it to him. "If you are one of Abyss's command on taking their souls, well I am here to stop you. I got a long way ride from Era and this is all I've got! Shitty lucky."

"Goddess, please step back." Luther covers me from the shitty lucky thingy. I just named him that. "This thing cannot killed easily. He will go back and go back to his master."

"Then," I put down the sword. "Let him go." I look directly into the creatures eyes. "Tell Abyss that he won't have what he wanted. Because, I shall, lead him to nothingness." I declare. The shadow melts down the floor.

I face the crowd again and my eyes darted to Prince Wade still all so lonely and empty. I don't know what he really felt but he look suffering inside.

"You shall meet your mate soon, Prince Wade." I told him. "No more killing here, and if this thing continue, I won't think twice of killing all of you." I warned them.

I climb up to the ship and jump into the water and the tentacle of the kraken hold me. I look back at Luther who flew to me and take me up. I wrapped my arms around him as he take me to where Phrixus is. As we landed, I suddenly feel a crazy stir on my stomach. Something is not right in this part of the place.

"This is the place where Goddess Aqua and Fire used to bath." I look around. It was beautiful yet something isn't right.

"They capture Aqua…" I murmur. I can see flashbacks inside my mind. My poor sister, crying and crying as she felt the one by one deaths of her sisters. Aryanna and Zoeira... then Odessi. Luther has been seized and locked up so he couldn't save them.

The familiar silhouette walk in, Aqua smiles and it was Prince Wade who look very lonely. Aqua finally know what it is, Prince Wade left to say goodbye and after he left, she's been captured and been caged like an animal in very far away for days and weeks. Her loneliness lead her to death… father took her back to paradise to regain her strength. And I know this time, Wade betrayed her.

A familiar heat comes into my veins. Anger.
