Outside Hell (42 page)

The old boy then walked over to the burning
person and with soft words, he’d knelt down close to try to placate
their pain. Only as his words had aired into the foreboding room,
and he was close enough to feel the heat coming back at him from
the persons flames, he’d suddenly realized that he could see a
face. It wasn’t clear and very feint, masked by the flames roaring
upwards above the head, but there was definitely a face.

Raffious without wanting to make it too
obvious that he was now staring, then edged forwards a few inches
to take a closer look. Then as soon as he’d seen that it was
Regina, he’d leapt back in horror and was speechless.

Sudden gilt raced through him, because he
knew that he was the reason that she was there. Only then the
flaming head of Regina slowly tilted up to look at him and her
screaming stopped. Then as Raffious looked he could see that there
were tears of flames pouring down through the flames where her
cheeks were just visible.

Raffious really felt sorry for her but knew
he’d done it and then thought that if he could take it back he
wouldn’t.

Raffious smiled at her and then crawled back
over to her and laughed in her face.

Only as he’d laughed in her face, her mouth
opened wide and a huge flame roared out of it that completely
engulfed him.

His hair and his white beard were instantly
vaporised by the heat, whilst his robes then burst into flames
too.

Then as he’d screamed and tried to leap back
out of the way, Regina concentrated the two meter inferno at him
and suddenly his whole head, like hers, burst into flame too.

Regina then closed her mouth again and just
before she’d started screaming from the intense pain she was
suffering, she’d managed a few words,

“Paybacks a Bitch, ain’t it?”

Then seconds afterwards as the whole room
like a log fire then completely roared into flame, with flames
coming up from the floor everywhere, and literally engulfed all who
was in it, Raffious couldn’t belief the pain he was feeling.

Only the blue light that had been hovering
over the cell watching Regina was now growing deeply in its
intensity.

Satan had just burst
up
through
the earth
in a massive
fire
ball of
intense
flames and stood there
fifty feet away from them all
,
looking like he was on
steroids on something. His demons were also blocking the main door
of the hanger
,
and Bonyious had
buried his face
into his fathers bear furs, hoping that the ugly bastard would
simply vanish and go away.

Dracus
who was
armed with his bow and
a
quiver of
cursed arrows
, and to save his friends, then
dived in front of
Satan
and opened a portal. He’d
hop
ed
that
once he’d vanished and Satan chased
him, that
they’d
be able to escape his wrath. Only as
he’d
stood inside it and the two halves of
the doorway had close
d
like
a tent, the prince of Eldor realized to his
extreme horror that the portal wouldn’t vanish. Satan was consuming
its energy and blocking it from leaving. Then aware
that
he’d one last card to play and if that card
failed
that
he
would be
bang out of luck
,
and
going no where
except
succumbing to Satan’s
evil
wrath,
the bowman used it. Reaching down for his quiver, he’d loaded the
last five arrows
that he’d had
on top of one
another
,
and
then
with
his drawstring fully back, he’d dived out of the
door
way
and fired. Only there was one
problem with the bowman’s last card to play, Satan had learnt from
Paris about the bowman the hard way, and he wasn’t prepared to
succumb to the lethal arrows this time at all. Then as he’d seen
them in flight, the horned bastard had burst into an intense
inferno that roared up hundreds of feet into the air. The heat
coming off it was so strong that everyone had to turn around fast,
and then to avoid having a new look entirely, they’d had
no choice
but
to shield their faces
away
from it too.

As
Dracus’ arrows
had
flown into the
ardent
flames
they were simply vaporized by the extreme heat coming off
them
.
Then as the inferno
had
died
down and Satan reappeared with a devilishly evil grin across his
ugly face, Dracus had apologized to his friends because there
wasn’t anything more he could do
to save them
.
Then and as the prince of darkness which should actually be changed
to the prince of ugliness walked forwards lifting his arms
up
into the air with wild ferocious flames
encircling them, suddenly a blue light
had
appeared
from above the pine trees in the far distance, and it was fast
approaching them.

Everyone
had
completely ignored the horned fool like he wasn’t
there and stood transfixed on the gloriously blue light
that was now shining so bright that as it swooped
down and then hovered inches above the tarmac, it
washed had their
faces in its Heavenly pale blue glow.

The light was circular in
shape
and
took
up 3 meters with its center a medium
blue that faded out on the sides to a much paler
blue
,
and sizzled
like that of the atmosphere above Eldor in King
Rasviult and queen Siarui’s time.

Satan took one look at it
with its blue rays dwarfing his flames from lighting up the
ground
beneath him,
and then in response
he’d lowered his arms and as if he hadn’t paid the gas bill,
suddenly the flames around them that had been spiraling like
serpents and growing in their intensity, died away to nothing.
Satan looked down at his arms in wild confusion and you could see
by his
haunched shoulders and his
furrowed brows that he was trying
in vain
to
relight them.
Then from the light that had
almost looked like it was from Heaven, suddenly a beautiful woman
with dark straight shoulder length hair and a pale complexion with
gleaming blue eyes and a beautiful jawline, stepped out. She was
wearing a full length light blue dress that as it flowed out behind
her, the end of it de-molecularised
and
faded
a
way
. The woman was wearing simple
white shoes that could have been mistaken for maybe ballet shoes,
and she’d glowed with a magical force field of pale blue all around
her.

Then and from remembering
an old painting in a cave that he’d seen of her and her husband,
Dracus dropped to the floor and in the traditional Changalk manner
of his people, he’d bowed his head to touch the tarmac beneath
him.
A
moment past and
then he’d
raised his face and
said, “mother you have come for me”.

The
whole crew of friends who were standing there
watching
almost choked when they’d heard him say mother.
Even Bonyious had
pulled his face out of his fathers furs to
glance up at his dad who’d
smiled back at him, and then
shrugged his shoulders to let him know that he was unsure
too.

Then back with the horned fool,
Satan didn’t care for family reunions in the slightest unless
they were souls meeting souls, to burn for eternity in his hell. In
his sick twisted mind he was ready to unleash his wrath upon them
all and within seconds as his flames engulfed them, they’d all be
burning in his hell too. The lady though seemed to be unaffected by
his prancing around with his veins pulsating on his face, and as he
was screaming for his demons to swarm her, instead she’d turned
around and calmly placed her hand upon her son’s shoulder, whilst
smiling down loving into his face.

Then as the demons refused their master
fearing the energy that was coming off her, and because of it
Satan’s rage spread exponentially throughout him, with flames
roaring skywards thousands of feet from his pitchfork, suddenly the
woman turned to face him. Her placid peaceful loving energy
darkened substantially, and as she’d looked across at Satan her
complexion then changed to grey with lines appearing across her
forehead. She’d looked at the prince of darkness with a face that
looked like a million faces of fury.

Only as she’d
then
turned
,
suddenly
and
unwillingly
Dracus’ who was kneeling on
the tarmac vanished from consciousness and his back arched, as his
arms fell limp by his sides, and his eyes rolled back into his
head. Then as a second past suddenly a swirling pale blue light
appeared from his chest that blasted out into a concentrate funnel
of extreme energy, roaring up and making the dark sky above appear
as day. Only as it beamed out from him and grew in its intensity,
the lady then held her hand up and the rays fell down from the sky,
roaring into the palm of her hand instead. She’d looked like she
was receiving a lightening strike from four or five bolts of
lightening at the same time.

Satan had enough of
watching her show of sorcery
though,
and then
with malicious
intent he’d
turned to look across at the
vampires by the door, whilst holding his hand up to blast them with
extreme fire. Only as his arms with spiraling flames had pointed in
their direction, and Claudius had tried to shield his son from the
unknown, nothing happened. The flames
that had strangely relit
were useless
and
wouldn’t respond at all. The spiraling
serpents of wild flames simply stayed on his arms and wouldn’t
leave. Satan was furious and then as he’d tried to lift up a wall
of flames from the ground to vaporize them all instead, suddenly
the lady raised her hand up to his face and blasted him with a
solid shaft of
blue
light.

Satan had tried to shield
himself from it but found that he couldn’t move. The rays
as they’d hit him
that were
like a concentrated bolt of
lightening
had
channeled themselves
directly
into his face.
A second past and
then after she’d lowered her hand
she’d
fallen
limp as if the energy that she’d just used had totally exhausted
her. Only as she’d taken a second and with it she’d managed to
stand, her glowing pale blue energy around her that had dulled
substantially throughout the process suddenly reappeared brightly,
and her beautiful looks with her soft smile and loving energy was
restored.

When
she’d consumed the beam of
energy in her hand and
then
turned towards
Satan
with
it
, the rays
that were
coming from her son’
s
chest
had suddenly
stopped
,
and
his almost lifeless body
because of it, had then slumped
forwards
against the tarmac. Only
as a
second
had
past and
when
his eyes
had then
wearily
opened
with the clouds of confusion clearing
from his mind
, he’d
absolutely
no idea what had just happened to him.

The prince of darkness
though was now in a whole different situation. The demon’s
that were
blackening the area in their intensity
suddenly
swarmed the lady for what she’d done to their
master
.
Only as they’
d
dived down into her
,
they were
instantly
consumed by the light
that was
radiating from her. The thousands of demons had simply
vanished back into hell
,
but the light from the
powers used
to protect her had also faded and the lady was
substantially weakened.

Satan was paralyzed and
could do nothing from now on except watch in horror as the series
of events unfurled
themselves
before him. His eyes
were twice bigger in his skull
than before,
and
his erratic
veins on the sides of his
forehead were pumping so hard that they’d looked like huge red
snakes, wriggling amongst themselves.
