The Guardian Angels Chapter 3
Sophie and Jon had found a nice room to stay and sleep. In the morning Sophie slowly woke up with a yawn and opened her eyes! “Jon?” She said tired. She looked to Jon’s bed but saw that he was still sleeping! Even snoring a bit, she didn’t wake him but she stood up and took a look around the temple. The temple had very light and soft colours, the walls and floor was white and grey and Sophie looked at it all with impressment! When she had walked some more she found a strange path, she followed it and soon after she would come to witness the beauty of the temple. As Sophie saw a doorway she reached it and was absolutely shocked of what she saw! This was a garden full of pools, flowers and shining colours. “I’ve never seen anything more beautiful in my life” Sophie thought. Sophie decided she would see even more of this garden! When she had walked a bit further she witnessed walls with water floating down like a waterfall, she smiled and decided she would show Jon all this! She ran back to their room and Jon was still sleeping but this time Sophie woke him up and said. “Jon, Jon you have to see this!” He woke up a bit tired and confused but he went with her anyway. After they had walked for a while Jon asked “What is it Sophie? You didn’t wake me just to go around looking at walls did you?” “No Jon, this is much more than just walls.” When they finally arrived at the garden room Jon was as shocked and amazed as Sophie was. “Whoa, this is something!” He said impressed. “I know isn’t it just amazing? Let’s stay here for the rest of our lives Jon!” Sophie said in a good mood. Jon looked at her. “Sophie you know that’s not going to happen, how would we survive down here without food? And wouldn’t we get just a bit lonely down here too?” Jon replied. “Well we have each other! That’s more than enough for me! And besides we’ve got no one else out there either! Mom and dad are gone and we have no friends Jon!” “I see what you mean but still we just can’t stay at a temple at the bottom of the ocean! I mean seriously Sophie!” Jon replied. “This place is so much bigger and so much more beautiful than any place we’ve ever lived with mom and dad!” Sophie said with a hope of convincing Jon. “Sophie you know we can never go outside right? And we can’t eat either! It just wouldn’t work no!” Sophie gave up trying to convince him then she thought and said to Jon “Where do you think the angels have gone Jon? Do you think they have abandoned us?” Jon looked a bit sadly at her “I have no idea Sophie! But I guess I could try and summon mine!” “Try it! We need to know what’s going on with them” Sophie replied. Jon tried reaching out for his guardian angel but there was no response. Then Jon gave up and looked down at the floor! “I can’t get in contact with him!” He said sadly as he began to faint “Jon!” Sophie cried out. Sophie was worried but there was really nothing she could do! But she didn’t have to because Jon woke up a few minutes later! “Ugh” He said exhausted “Jon are you okay? What happened?” “I think I just realised how hungry I actually am! All this talk of not eating made me even hungrier!” Sophie didn’t know what to say but she thought he had a point. “Now that you mention it Jon I’m actually starving too… I guess this means you were right from the beginning, we can’t stay here for long!” Sophie said disappointed.
In a faraway place there lived a hunter! He lived in a forest but did never stay at one place he always travelled around! Hunting was his life and he was very good at it! He had practised using bow and arrows his entire life. One day he shot a bird down from the skies while it was flying! He thought it wasn’t enough for one day! But when he intended to hunt some more he came across some very strange creatures that spoke to him! “Hunter! Listen to us” one of the many creatures said. “What the hell” the hunter thought in his head! “This forest is too dangerous for you to stay! And you can’t hunt here anymore you are getting close to the sacred place of this forest!” “Sacred place?” He asked “Yes, you must leave now!” the creatures looked like stags just much bigger than normal.
Back with Sophie and Jon “Sophie!” a voice cried out from a distant room! Sophie walked towards the distant voice and when she got to a little room not far from their own room she saw that it was an angel! She smiled and said “We thought you had abandoned us! We were so worried!” “We would never abandon you!” “What were you doing for such a long time anyway?” Sophie asked “We were having a meeting with the boss!” the angel said. “Oh” Sophie replied. Soon after Jon came inside the room worried about Sophie! “Sophie where are you?” And he found her with the angel and just looked “You’re back!” He cried out! “We never left you!” “But when can I be possessed?” Sophie asked “When you are ready! Possession is a nasty business!” “But I’m ready” Sophie said like she was tough. Jon looked at her a bit worried as he knew how painful it was the first time! “Very well” the angel said and Sophie could feel a lot of pain all of a sudden it was like her entire body was attacked! Her eyes started glowing blue but short after she fainted in pain and the angel went out of her again! Jon ran to Sophie and picked her in his arms “Will she be alright?” He asked the angel “She will be alright in time! She is not ready yet, but as you already know Jon! Possession is a nasty business and I recommend that you train her! To stand the pain, after all you already know the trick” “Yes but look at her she looks almost dead!” Jon cried out in a sad and upset manner! “She is not dead! Not even close but I think you should discuss these matters with your own guardian!” the angel said and disappeared very quickly! Jon just looked at Sophie still sad and after some time he laid her softly on the floor and summoned his own guardian angel a bit angry! As the light of the angel came Jon spoke quickly “Where the hell were you when I called for you? You’re supposed to be my guardian angel aren’t you!?” “Jon! Relax I couldn’t come we were having a very important meeting” “There is something you are not telling me I can feel it!” Jon spoke upset! “There is something I actually failed to tell you before! Having more than one of us angels inside you at once can actually be very dangerous! Especially if you are not strong enough, that’s why we only choose the strongest humans and you happen to be two of them” “What? I don’t believe you! Why did you not tell us this before?” “Because I didn’t!” “How dare you? Some kind of guardian you are!“ Jon replied angrily. “Jon!” “No! Shut up you haven’t been honest with me and that’s the least you could do! I want you to send me another one of your friends in your stead! “Don’t be stupid! I am your guardian!” “Do as I say” “Or what Jon? Don’t you realise the reason all of us doesn’t just show ourselves and come to you is because you need these tests and adventures! It will only make you stronger in every way! And if we just came to you, you would be too weak when you’re on your own!” Jon didn’t reply but he could actually see that it made sense! Then he turned his back on his guardian angel and carried Sophie to her bed! The guardian angel of fire was a bit sad as he disappeared out of sight again.
Brandon was lost and still sad about the killing of his new friends! He blamed himself a lot but he also knew that he couldn’t have stopped it as it was not in his control! And now his hands began to shake again and he soon came to realise that his powers were now gone! He then thought to himself “Am I cursed? I get powers only to kill people I start caring about and then when I actually might need them they are gone?” Brandon couldn’t stop thinking about how nice both Silvia and William was to him! They even tried to convince their father to let him stay at their house! He missed them a lot but as he was still walking slowly and in pain he heard a noise coming not far away! He thought there was no choice but to drink another one of his elixirs, even if the one he already drank had given him nothing but pain and sorrow. Then he started becoming invisible! As he was invisible he saw that it was his mother along with many other men in armour! He was scared but he knew that he couldn’t stay for long! What if they could hear him breathing or his invisibility faded before long? He then started to run without knowing where it would take him.
“Sophie?” Are you alright now?” Sophie arose from her bed and answered “Yes Jon I’m just a bit exhausted, where are the angels?” “Gone.” “Gone, Again? But I was going to…” “You weren’t ready Sophie! Just like everyone else you will need to train first” Jon replied. “Train? You mean like you did?” “Yes, the trick is to imagine that you are not present! For example try to imagine you being in a totally different world and close your eyes!” Jon said. Sophie tried it a few times and said “Jon! This doesn’t work I only feel stupid!” “Concentrate Sophie!” “But how?” “It will take some time, like it did with me! You just need to be patient, then in time you will be stronger than you could even imagine” Jon said in a good mood as he smiled. “Sigh.” Sophie thought it was tough to train and she wasn’t really patient. “Okay that’s enough for now Sophie! I think we should continue later!”
The hunter had listened to the talking stags and he now hurried to leave the sacred forest! But as he picked up his bow and was about to leave one of the large stag creatures came to him! When he turned around and saw the creature there right in front of him, his heart almost stopped of the shock he got! “Ugh, you scared the crap out of me!” The hunter said. “You are leaving now?” “Yes you told me to remember?” he replied. “No hunter, we only told you not to enter the sacred part of the forest” “And how would I know which area is sacred and which is not? I think I will just leave instead!” “You can’t leave yet! First I need you to do something. I promise you will get awarded if you complete this task!” the talking stag said as the hunter was very surprised.
After Jon and Sophie had relaxed and trained a lot more the angels came again. “Jon, Sophie!” the guardian angel of water spoke! Both the guardian of water and the guardian of fire had come! Jon and Sophie looked and awaited some urgent news! “First of all, the boss wanted us to tell you this! Your mother is alive and she is kept in a prison cell in a castle far from here!” Jon and Sophie both looked shocked and sad at the same time! “What!?” they both cried out loud. “But we thought she was dead!, how can this be?” Sophie said. “The ones who killed your father took her” one of the angels replied. “We must go at once! We must rescue her. Jon! We’re going together this time” Sophie said. “Sophie I’m not sure this is a good plan, I mean first we need to have a plan before just rushing!” Jon replied. “Uh, I can’t believe what I’m hearing. Don’t you want to rescue her Jon?” “You know I do Sophie, but we can’t just go there without a plan, we need a plan first!” “Humans! You will not go there yet! Remember your quests? They cannot be ignored!” “You could never understand! This is our mother and we have to save her! We just found out she lives how could we ignore that?” “Yes and it will only take a short while” “You’re not going! Not yet but don’t worry there will be time for it later!” “Later? Hell no! She could be dead by then and tortured! No I’m going now whether you like it or not!” Sophie said. “Sophie!” the blue angel said. Then it possessed her! “Ahhh” Sophie was a bit hurt by it! But when she got over the pain she felt a lot better and started to forget her mother a bit! Now the red angel also possessed Jon! “First we will see how well you have been trained after all! Let’s go for a hunt in the sea, then you will also get some food which you have longed for” as Jon’s eyes were red and Sophie’s were blue! They left the temple to go hunting outside in the sea! After a minute or two creatures had already sensed them and swam towards Jon and Sophie. Jon and Sophie looked at each other and moved their heads as it meant they were both ready for this! Jon had to get very close in order to use his powers since his powers were all fire and they were almost in at the bottom of the sea! When the creature first attacked Jon he evaded the attacked and managed to get very close to it! When he was so close that he could touch the creature he used his power then! He burnt the creatures flesh off! And now it looked more like a huge chicken you could eat instead of a living sea creature! Sophie was scared when a creature was swimming towards her, but she just tried to calm herself by remembering that she had powers now! First she closed her eyes and short after she opened them again she made herself swim as fast as no fish or anything could swim! She did that to confuse the creature and after she did it a few times the creatures were starting to get exhausted, it almost looked ready to give up the hunt! But then Sophie took out her hands as a water flow came towards the creature! Then the creature was blown far away! Sophie thought it was so much fun to use her powers! And then she started swimming with high speed again! Jon looked embarrassed at her as she was playing around. After a while they both helped to carry the creature Jon had grilled and carry it inside the temple!
The hunter met with a very special woman who knew a lot about magic, spells and elixirs! He walked inside a tent in the far south of the forest. Almost at the edge of the forest! He walked inside a tent and saw a woman standing with her back to him! She turned around and said “I’ve heard much about you hunter!... You are the flaming hunter who is destined for greatness” He was confused but said after a while “Oh really? And who are you?” “My name is Helena and let’s just say I know a lot about you!” “I’m George! But how exactly do you know so much about me?” He replied “I can’t tell you that yet” “And why not?” “I can’t tell you that either” she replied.
After a while Jon and Sophie had finally got something to eat! It tasted good no matter what just because they hadn’t eating for a long time! There was more than enough meat in that one creature they had killed. But a few minutes after they were finished eating something happened! The Guardian angel of water appeared and said “Humans! Something’s come up! There is a boy who needs your help! He is hunted by an army and his own mother! You will go save him before you go on your own quest!” “Whoa! His own mother hunts him? Poor kid” Sophie said. “Why would his own mother hunt him?” Jon asked. “You don’t need to know! What matters is that you save him! We leave now!” as both Jon and Sophie got possessed by their angels they were ready to leave the temple.
Brandon’s invisibility was slowly starting to fade and he was too tired and exhausted to go further.
Silvia found the trace of her son she saw that he had used more than one of her elixirs! “Follow me! He is this way” Not long after they noticed Brandon lying almost unconscious on grass close to the sea! Silvia and her army went to him! As they approached Brandon Silvia signalled for her army to stay in the background while she herself handled this! When Silvia was standing in front of her son! They both stared intensely at each other without saying anything. Brandon looked both scared and angry at the same time! Silvia just looked satisfied and disappointed at the same time! After a while Silvia started to speak “So Brandon! I don’t understand what you are trying to do here son!” Brandon didn’t reply. “Brandon? I just spoke to you! Why do you NEVER do as you are told? You’ve always been a pain in my ass Brandon” “Then why did you come after me, if you hate me so?” “Well I came because you stole my things of course!” “You are not my mother, not anymore!” Silvia turned to Brandon and said “What did you say?” “I just started to realise what it is like to have a real family! One who cares about you” Silvia laughed confused “Brandon, what the hell are you talking about?” “You would never understand, I met someone who actually cared about me and treated me with respect!” Silvia looked at Brandon while her dress waved with the wind!... “Brandon! Son, you will come home with me now! And most importantly you will give me my elixirs back!”… “No!” Brandon replied… “Brandon… You used two of my elixirs and that’s more than you should ever have done!” Brandon looked annoyed at his mother without replying. Silvia was just about to take her elixirs back but Brandon wouldn’t allow it and he punched her on her cheek! Silvia looked angrily back at him then she punched him back hard about five times! Three times on his cheek and two times in the belly! Brandon was bleeding and was now unconscious as Silvia took back the elixirs! Then she started carrying Brandon, but just as she was about to take him with her! A huge wave of water approached her and washed her away! Then she was separated from Brandon! Silvia almost couldn’t breathe because of all that water in her lungs! As everyone looked the way the wave came from. What they saw was Jon and Sophie standing in the near distance with their eyes glowing brightly! Jon and Sophie approached Silvia and her army as Sophie said almost with the voice of her guardian angel “Leave the boy alone!” Silvia looked back scared and said “What are you?” Jon looked back at her with a tough face while his eyes were still glowing red! “We are the ones you should fear unless you leave the boy alone and allow him to come with us” Jon said “In truth we are just guardian angels who protect the innocent and the weak” Sophie said as she looked at Silvia who was still on the ground! Sophie still had the voice of her angel just like Jon! And their eyes were still glowing as well! Silvia drank one of her elixirs now! She was granted explosive powers just like the ones Brandon had a while back! The only difference was that Silvia knew how to control them! And she shot Sophie down with explosive magic! Sophie was actually a bit hurt! Jon was furious and used his fury to control the powers of his angel! He turned to Silvia and Silvia shot at him! But Jon was ready and blocked the explosion then he took his hands out and forced flames out of his hands. Silvia was burnt alive and screaming in pain. Jon turned to Sophie who suddenly arose on her own like nothing really happened and she said “I’m okay! Not hurt at all” Jon smiled at her “Good, I was scared that something might have happened to you!” “Don’t worry Jon! We’re not normal people” “I know” Silvia’s army now charged at Jon and Sophie! Jon and Sophie looked at each other and prepared! Sophie started to close her eyes and summon an enormous wave of water! When she opened her eyes again the wave was coming! All the worriers looked scared and shocked! The wave was higher than a large tower! And it washed almost all the soldiers away! Including Silvia and Brandon! Only Jon and Sophie were not affected by it! The remaining soldiers were scared and running for their lives! Jon flew over to some of them who attacked him! He evaded their attack and set them on fire! They were burnt alive and screaming until they dropped dead.
Now Jon and Sophie were searching for Brandon! It took them a long while but they found him eventually! He looked almost dead! “Oh no! Perhaps we’re too late” Sophie said sadly. Sophie sat down on her knees and begged her guardian angel for help to heal the boy! She took her hands over Brandon’s body and closed her eyes! “Come on Sophie, you can do this! Save this boy… Come on HEAL!” Sophie said to herself in her head. Jon stood nearby and looked sadly at them! Sophie opened her eyes again and looked at Brandon! It didn’t seem to work! “I can’t do it Jon, he is dead! I failed” Sophie said sadly and stood up afterwards! “Sophie!... You tried your best” Jon said sadly and tried to comfort her! They hugged as Sophie cried! “I’m such a failure! This was my first real test and I failed Jon!” Sophie said while crying.
At the king’s castle Michel was having a visit down in the castle dungeon at her cell the king himself arrived! “So my lady! How have you been? Have you had enough time to think things through?” Michel was hurt and thirsty being in the cell for so long! “Why do you still keep me here?, I will get out you know and when I do it will not be very enjoyable for you!” “Oh enough Michel! Who would release you, one of your angels?”… “As a matter of fact yes!” The king just looked and seemed annoyed with her! And he left again! Michel began talking to herself “Please god, help my children! And please tell them where I am”
Now a while had passed but Jon and Sophie was still at Brandon’s side! Just looking at the sea now instead! Sophie was still sad and disappointed in herself that she couldn’t save him! But suddenly her angel spoke to her in her head “Sophie, try healing him again! You can do it this time” Sophie listened and turned and walked to Brandon! Jon looked at her at said “Sophie what is it, where are you going?” “I’m going to save him! My angel spoke to me Jon! And said I could do it this time” “I see” Jon replied confused but glad! Sophie went on her knees again and tried to heal him again! After a while her hands started to shine and her angel spoke to her again “Trust in yourself Sophie! That is the most important trick in making it work” This time she tried everything she could, used all the strength she had to save the boy! And her hands started to shine more and more blue and a short while after a strong blue light was all over Brandon! She did it! She saved him! “You’ve done it Sophie!” her angel said to her! Sophie was exhausted and terrified after this. But then she said “I did it! I did it Jon!” Jon smiled “Yes you did! It looks like you are no failure after all!” He replied. Sophie was still on her knees when she turned her head to Jon and smiled.
After a long while Brandon started to open his eyes very slowly! When he had opened them he seemed not to remember a thing! “Where am I?” Jon and Sophie turned around when they heard him speak. “You’re awake!” Sophie said happily with a smile! As she went on her knees again! “Who are you? I don’t know you” “No you don’t but we were sent here to save you!” Sophie replied. “Save me? Save me from what?” Brandon asked. “Well you don’t want to know, not just yet anyway!” Jon said as he came closer. “Jon, will you help me carry him to safety?” “Sure Sophie, I can carry him alone. After all you must be exhausted; you should rest instead and let me to this!” “Thank you Jon!” she replied. Then Jon and Sophie walked to their home! It took them a long while and they all rested in the mean time! Brandon actually slept the whole way! By the time they arrived home Jon was tired after carrying Brandon for so long! When they went inside Jon laid Brandon in his own bed and then he walked into the living room where Sophie was standing and thinking! “Sophie” Jon said. “Ugh yeah what is it?” Sophie was shocked because she was in her own thought! “You should rest, I’m going to bed now” Jon said “Goodnight Jon!” As Jon went to bed Sophie was thinking about everything they’d been through… when their father was killed, when her friend Willem was killed, everything that happened since she went training in that temple! But suddenly her angel appeared in front of her “Sophie, something tells me you are troubled!” her guardian angel said. “Oh, I just feel alone and scared sometimes… and so disappointed at myself when I can’t do things right!” “Sophie you have done nothing wrong, these thoughts in your head are because you’ve been through so much! But you should listen more to yourself and then you will find more peace” “I just… I can’t ignore these emotions, I know I’m not alone, but for some reason I just can’t help feeling alone and sad even when my brother is around!” Sophie said sadly “Sophie, you are never alone, we will always be here!”
Sophie and Jon had found a nice room to stay and sleep. In the morning Sophie slowly woke up with a yawn and opened her eyes! “Jon?” She said tired. She looked to Jon’s bed but saw that he was still sleeping! Even snoring a bit, she didn’t wake him but she stood up and took a look around the temple. The temple had very light and soft colours, the walls and floor was white and grey and Sophie looked at it all with impressment! When she had walked some more she found a strange path, she followed it and soon after she would come to witness the beauty of the temple. As Sophie saw a doorway she reached it and was absolutely shocked of what she saw! This was a garden full of pools, flowers and shining colours. “I’ve never seen anything more beautiful in my life” Sophie thought. Sophie decided she would see even more of this garden! When she had walked a bit further she witnessed walls with water floating down like a waterfall, she smiled and decided she would show Jon all this! She ran back to their room and Jon was still sleeping but this time Sophie woke him up and said. “Jon, Jon you have to see this!” He woke up a bit tired and confused but he went with her anyway. After they had walked for a while Jon asked “What is it Sophie? You didn’t wake me just to go around looking at walls did you?” “No Jon, this is much more than just walls.” When they finally arrived at the garden room Jon was as shocked and amazed as Sophie was. “Whoa, this is something!” He said impressed. “I know isn’t it just amazing? Let’s stay here for the rest of our lives Jon!” Sophie said in a good mood. Jon looked at her. “Sophie you know that’s not going to happen, how would we survive down here without food? And wouldn’t we get just a bit lonely down here too?” Jon replied. “Well we have each other! That’s more than enough for me! And besides we’ve got no one else out there either! Mom and dad are gone and we have no friends Jon!” “I see what you mean but still we just can’t stay at a temple at the bottom of the ocean! I mean seriously Sophie!” Jon replied. “This place is so much bigger and so much more beautiful than any place we’ve ever lived with mom and dad!” Sophie said with a hope of convincing Jon. “Sophie you know we can never go outside right? And we can’t eat either! It just wouldn’t work no!” Sophie gave up trying to convince him then she thought and said to Jon “Where do you think the angels have gone Jon? Do you think they have abandoned us?” Jon looked a bit sadly at her “I have no idea Sophie! But I guess I could try and summon mine!” “Try it! We need to know what’s going on with them” Sophie replied. Jon tried reaching out for his guardian angel but there was no response. Then Jon gave up and looked down at the floor! “I can’t get in contact with him!” He said sadly as he began to faint “Jon!” Sophie cried out. Sophie was worried but there was really nothing she could do! But she didn’t have to because Jon woke up a few minutes later! “Ugh” He said exhausted “Jon are you okay? What happened?” “I think I just realised how hungry I actually am! All this talk of not eating made me even hungrier!” Sophie didn’t know what to say but she thought he had a point. “Now that you mention it Jon I’m actually starving too… I guess this means you were right from the beginning, we can’t stay here for long!” Sophie said disappointed.
In a faraway place there lived a hunter! He lived in a forest but did never stay at one place he always travelled around! Hunting was his life and he was very good at it! He had practised using bow and arrows his entire life. One day he shot a bird down from the skies while it was flying! He thought it wasn’t enough for one day! But when he intended to hunt some more he came across some very strange creatures that spoke to him! “Hunter! Listen to us” one of the many creatures said. “What the hell” the hunter thought in his head! “This forest is too dangerous for you to stay! And you can’t hunt here anymore you are getting close to the sacred place of this forest!” “Sacred place?” He asked “Yes, you must leave now!” the creatures looked like stags just much bigger than normal.
Back with Sophie and Jon “Sophie!” a voice cried out from a distant room! Sophie walked towards the distant voice and when she got to a little room not far from their own room she saw that it was an angel! She smiled and said “We thought you had abandoned us! We were so worried!” “We would never abandon you!” “What were you doing for such a long time anyway?” Sophie asked “We were having a meeting with the boss!” the angel said. “Oh” Sophie replied. Soon after Jon came inside the room worried about Sophie! “Sophie where are you?” And he found her with the angel and just looked “You’re back!” He cried out! “We never left you!” “But when can I be possessed?” Sophie asked “When you are ready! Possession is a nasty business!” “But I’m ready” Sophie said like she was tough. Jon looked at her a bit worried as he knew how painful it was the first time! “Very well” the angel said and Sophie could feel a lot of pain all of a sudden it was like her entire body was attacked! Her eyes started glowing blue but short after she fainted in pain and the angel went out of her again! Jon ran to Sophie and picked her in his arms “Will she be alright?” He asked the angel “She will be alright in time! She is not ready yet, but as you already know Jon! Possession is a nasty business and I recommend that you train her! To stand the pain, after all you already know the trick” “Yes but look at her she looks almost dead!” Jon cried out in a sad and upset manner! “She is not dead! Not even close but I think you should discuss these matters with your own guardian!” the angel said and disappeared very quickly! Jon just looked at Sophie still sad and after some time he laid her softly on the floor and summoned his own guardian angel a bit angry! As the light of the angel came Jon spoke quickly “Where the hell were you when I called for you? You’re supposed to be my guardian angel aren’t you!?” “Jon!

Shut up you haven’t been honest with me and that’s the least you could do! I want you to send me another one of your friends in your stead! “Don’t be stupid! I am your guardian!” “Do as I say” “Or what Jon? Don’t you realise the reason all of us doesn’t just show ourselves and come to you is because you need these tests and adventures! It will only make you stronger in every way! And if we just came to you, you would be too weak when you’re on your own!” Jon didn’t reply but he could actually see that it made sense! Then he turned his back on his guardian angel and carried Sophie to her bed! The guardian angel of fire was a bit sad as he disappeared out of sight again.
Brandon was lost and still sad about the killing of his new friends! He blamed himself a lot but he also knew that he couldn’t have stopped it as it was not in his control! And now his hands began to shake again and he soon came to realise that his powers were now gone! He then thought to himself “Am I cursed? I get powers only to kill people I start caring about and then when I actually might need them they are gone?” Brandon couldn’t stop thinking about how nice both Silvia and William was to him! They even tried to convince their father to let him stay at their house! He missed them a lot but as he was still walking slowly and in pain he heard a noise coming not far away! He thought there was no choice but to drink another one of his elixirs, even if the one he already drank had given him nothing but pain and sorrow. Then he started becoming invisible! As he was invisible he saw that it was his mother along with many other men in armour! He was scared but he knew that he couldn’t stay for long! What if they could hear him breathing or his invisibility faded before long? He then started to run without knowing where it would take him.
“Sophie?” Are you alright now?” Sophie arose from her bed and answered “Yes Jon I’m just a bit exhausted, where are the angels?” “Gone.” “Gone, Again? But I was going to…” “You weren’t ready Sophie! Just like everyone else you will need to train first” Jon replied. “Train? You mean like you did?” “Yes, the trick is to imagine that you are not present! For example try to imagine you being in a totally different world and close your eyes!” Jon said. Sophie tried it a few times and said “Jon! This doesn’t work I only feel stupid!” “Concentrate Sophie!” “But how?” “It will take some time, like it did with me! You just need to be patient, then in time you will be stronger than you could even imagine” Jon said in a good mood as he smiled. “Sigh.” Sophie thought it was tough to train and she wasn’t really patient. “Okay that’s enough for now Sophie! I think we should continue later!”
The hunter had listened to the talking stags and he now hurried to leave the sacred forest! But as he picked up his bow and was about to leave one of the large stag creatures came to him! When he turned around and saw the creature there right in front of him, his heart almost stopped of the shock he got! “Ugh, you scared the crap out of me!” The hunter said. “You are leaving now?” “Yes you told me to remember?” he replied. “No hunter, we only told you not to enter the sacred part of the forest” “And how would I know which area is sacred and which is not? I think I will just leave instead!” “You can’t leave yet! First I need you to do something. I promise you will get awarded if you complete this task!” the talking stag said as the hunter was very surprised.
After Jon and Sophie had relaxed and trained a lot more the angels came again. “Jon, Sophie!” the guardian angel of water spoke! Both the guardian of water and the guardian of fire had come! Jon and Sophie looked and awaited some urgent news! “First of all, the boss wanted us to tell you this! Your mother is alive and she is kept in a prison cell in a castle far from here!” Jon and Sophie both looked shocked and sad at the same time! “What!?” they both cried out loud. “But we thought she was dead!, how can this be?” Sophie said. “The ones who killed your father took her” one of the angels replied. “We must go at once! We must rescue her. Jon! We’re going together this time” Sophie said. “Sophie I’m not sure this is a good plan, I mean first we need to have a plan before just rushing!” Jon replied. “Uh, I can’t believe what I’m hearing. Don’t you want to rescue her Jon?” “You know I do Sophie, but we can’t just go there without a plan, we need a plan first!” “Humans! You will not go there yet! Remember your quests? They cannot be ignored!” “You could never understand! This is our mother and we have to save her! We just found out she lives how could we ignore that?” “Yes and it will only take a short while” “You’re not going! Not yet but don’t worry there will be time for it later!” “Later? Hell no! She could be dead by then and tortured! No I’m going now whether you like it or not!” Sophie said. “Sophie!” the blue angel said. Then it possessed her! “Ahhh” Sophie was a bit hurt by it! But when she got over the pain she felt a lot better and started to forget her mother a bit! Now the red angel also possessed Jon! “First we will see how well you have been trained after all! Let’s go for a hunt in the sea, then you will also get some food which you have longed for” as Jon’s eyes were red and Sophie’s were blue! They left the temple to go hunting outside in the sea! After a minute or two creatures had already sensed them and swam towards Jon and Sophie. Jon and Sophie looked at each other and moved their heads as it meant they were both ready for this! Jon had to get very close in order to use his powers since his powers were all fire and they were almost in at the bottom of the sea! When the creature first attacked Jon he evaded the attacked and managed to get very close to it! When he was so close that he could touch the creature he used his power then! He burnt the creatures flesh off! And now it looked more like a huge chicken you could eat instead of a living sea creature! Sophie was scared when a creature was swimming towards her, but she just tried to calm herself by remembering that she had powers now! First she closed her eyes and short after she opened them again she made herself swim as fast as no fish or anything could swim! She did that to confuse the creature and after she did it a few times the creatures were starting to get exhausted, it almost looked ready to give up the hunt! But then Sophie took out her hands as a water flow came towards the creature! Then the creature was blown far away! Sophie thought it was so much fun to use her powers! And then she started swimming with high speed again! Jon looked embarrassed at her as she was playing around. After a while they both helped to carry the creature Jon had grilled and carry it inside the temple!
The hunter met with a very special woman who knew a lot about magic, spells and elixirs! He walked inside a tent in the far south of the forest. Almost at the edge of the forest! He walked inside a tent and saw a woman standing with her back to him! She turned around and said “I’ve heard much about you hunter!... You are the flaming hunter who is destined for greatness” He was confused but said after a while “Oh really? And who are you?” “My name is Helena and let’s just say I know a lot about you!” “I’m George! But how exactly do you know so much about me?” He replied “I can’t tell you that yet” “And why not?” “I can’t tell you that either” she replied.
After a while Jon and Sophie had finally got something to eat! It tasted good no matter what just because they hadn’t eating for a long time! There was more than enough meat in that one creature they had killed. But a few minutes after they were finished eating something happened! The Guardian angel of water appeared and said “Humans! Something’s come up! There is a boy who needs your help! He is hunted by an army and his own mother! You will go save him before you go on your own quest!” “Whoa! His own mother hunts him? Poor kid” Sophie said. “Why would his own mother hunt him?” Jon asked. “You don’t need to know! What matters is that you save him! We leave now!” as both Jon and Sophie got possessed by their angels they were ready to leave the temple.
Brandon’s invisibility was slowly starting to fade and he was too tired and exhausted to go further.
Silvia found the trace of her son she saw that he had used more than one of her elixirs! “Follow me! He is this way” Not long after they noticed Brandon lying almost unconscious on grass close to the sea! Silvia and her army went to him! As they approached Brandon Silvia signalled for her army to stay in the background while she herself handled this! When Silvia was standing in front of her son! They both stared intensely at each other without saying anything. Brandon looked both scared and angry at the same time! Silvia just looked satisfied and disappointed at the same time! After a while Silvia started to speak “So Brandon! I don’t understand what you are trying to do here son!” Brandon didn’t reply. “Brandon? I just spoke to you! Why do you NEVER do as you are told? You’ve always been a pain in my ass Brandon” “Then why did you come after me, if you hate me so?” “Well I came because you stole my things of course!” “You are not my mother, not anymore!” Silvia turned to Brandon and said “What did you say?” “I just started to realise what it is like to have a real family! One who cares about you” Silvia laughed confused “Brandon, what the hell are you talking about?” “You would never understand, I met someone who actually cared about me and treated me with respect!” Silvia looked at Brandon while her dress waved with the wind!... “Brandon! Son, you will come home with me now! And most importantly you will give me my elixirs back!”… “No!” Brandon replied… “Brandon… You used two of my elixirs and that’s more than you should ever have done!” Brandon looked annoyed at his mother without replying. Silvia was just about to take her elixirs back but Brandon wouldn’t allow it and he punched her on her cheek! Silvia looked angrily back at him then she punched him back hard about five times! Three times on his cheek and two times in the belly! Brandon was bleeding and was now unconscious as Silvia took back the elixirs! Then she started carrying Brandon, but just as she was about to take him with her! A huge wave of water approached her and washed her away! Then she was separated from Brandon! Silvia almost couldn’t breathe because of all that water in her lungs! As everyone looked the way the wave came from. What they saw was Jon and Sophie standing in the near distance with their eyes glowing brightly! Jon and Sophie approached Silvia and her army as Sophie said almost with the voice of her guardian angel “Leave the boy alone!” Silvia looked back scared and said “What are you?” Jon looked back at her with a tough face while his eyes were still glowing red! “We are the ones you should fear unless you leave the boy alone and allow him to come with us” Jon said “In truth we are just guardian angels who protect the innocent and the weak” Sophie said as she looked at Silvia who was still on the ground! Sophie still had the voice of her angel just like Jon! And their eyes were still glowing as well! Silvia drank one of her elixirs now! She was granted explosive powers just like the ones Brandon had a while back! The only difference was that Silvia knew how to control them! And she shot Sophie down with explosive magic! Sophie was actually a bit hurt! Jon was furious and used his fury to control the powers of his angel! He turned to Silvia and Silvia shot at him! But Jon was ready and blocked the explosion then he took his hands out and forced flames out of his hands. Silvia was burnt alive and screaming in pain. Jon turned to Sophie who suddenly arose on her own like nothing really happened and she said “I’m okay! Not hurt at all” Jon smiled at her “Good, I was scared that something might have happened to you!” “Don’t worry Jon! We’re not normal people” “I know” Silvia’s army now charged at Jon and Sophie! Jon and Sophie looked at each other and prepared! Sophie started to close her eyes and summon an enormous wave of water! When she opened her eyes again the wave was coming! All the worriers looked scared and shocked! The wave was higher than a large tower! And it washed almost all the soldiers away! Including Silvia and Brandon! Only Jon and Sophie were not affected by it! The remaining soldiers were scared and running for their lives! Jon flew over to some of them who attacked him! He evaded their attack and set them on fire! They were burnt alive and screaming until they dropped dead.
Now Jon and Sophie were searching for Brandon! It took them a long while but they found him eventually! He looked almost dead! “Oh no! Perhaps we’re too late” Sophie said sadly. Sophie sat down on her knees and begged her guardian angel for help to heal the boy! She took her hands over Brandon’s body and closed her eyes! “Come on Sophie, you can do this! Save this boy… Come on HEAL!” Sophie said to herself in her head. Jon stood nearby and looked sadly at them! Sophie opened her eyes again and looked at Brandon! It didn’t seem to work! “I can’t do it Jon, he is dead! I failed” Sophie said sadly and stood up afterwards! “Sophie!... You tried your best” Jon said sadly and tried to comfort her! They hugged as Sophie cried! “I’m such a failure! This was my first real test and I failed Jon!” Sophie said while crying.
At the king’s castle Michel was having a visit down in the castle dungeon at her cell the king himself arrived! “So my lady! How have you been? Have you had enough time to think things through?” Michel was hurt and thirsty being in the cell for so long! “Why do you still keep me here?, I will get out you know and when I do it will not be very enjoyable for you!” “Oh enough Michel! Who would release you, one of your angels?”… “As a matter of fact yes!” The king just looked and seemed annoyed with her! And he left again! Michel began talking to herself “Please god, help my children! And please tell them where I am”
Now a while had passed but Jon and Sophie was still at Brandon’s side! Just looking at the sea now instead! Sophie was still sad and disappointed in herself that she couldn’t save him! But suddenly her angel spoke to her in her head “Sophie, try healing him again! You can do it this time” Sophie listened and turned and walked to Brandon! Jon looked at her at said “Sophie what is it, where are you going?” “I’m going to save him! My angel spoke to me Jon! And said I could do it this time” “I see” Jon replied confused but glad! Sophie went on her knees again and tried to heal him again! After a while her hands started to shine and her angel spoke to her again “Trust in yourself Sophie! That is the most important trick in making it work” This time she tried everything she could, used all the strength she had to save the boy! And her hands started to shine more and more blue and a short while after a strong blue light was all over Brandon! She did it! She saved him! “You’ve done it Sophie!” her angel said to her! Sophie was exhausted and terrified after this. But then she said “I did it! I did it Jon!” Jon smiled “Yes you did! It looks like you are no failure after all!” He replied. Sophie was still on her knees when she turned her head to Jon and smiled.
After a long while Brandon started to open his eyes very slowly! When he had opened them he seemed not to remember a thing! “Where am I?” Jon and Sophie turned around when they heard him speak. “You’re awake!” Sophie said happily with a smile! As she went on her knees again! “Who are you? I don’t know you” “No you don’t but we were sent here to save you!” Sophie replied. “Save me? Save me from what?” Brandon asked. “Well you don’t want to know, not just yet anyway!” Jon said as he came closer. “Jon, will you help me carry him to safety?” “Sure Sophie, I can carry him alone. After all you must be exhausted; you should rest instead and let me to this!” “Thank you Jon!” she replied. Then Jon and Sophie walked to their home! It took them a long while and they all rested in the mean time! Brandon actually slept the whole way! By the time they arrived home Jon was tired after carrying Brandon for so long! When they went inside Jon laid Brandon in his own bed and then he walked into the living room where Sophie was standing and thinking! “Sophie” Jon said. “Ugh yeah what is it?” Sophie was shocked because she was in her own thought! “You should rest, I’m going to bed now” Jon said “Goodnight Jon!” As Jon went to bed Sophie was thinking about everything they’d been through… when their father was killed, when her friend Willem was killed, everything that happened since she went training in that temple! But suddenly her angel appeared in front of her “Sophie, something tells me you are troubled!” her guardian angel said. “Oh, I just feel alone and scared sometimes… and so disappointed at myself when I can’t do things right!” “Sophie you have done nothing wrong, these thoughts in your head are because you’ve been through so much! But you should listen more to yourself and then you will find more peace” “I just… I can’t ignore these emotions, I know I’m not alone, but for some reason I just can’t help feeling alone and sad even when my brother is around!” Sophie said sadly “Sophie, you are never alone, we will always be here!”
