THE FORSAKEN ANGEL

Episode 54-A New prophesy

After the information from her sister, she jumped out of bed the moment she regained her consciousness, she rush through putting her clothes on before she raced downstairs where everyone was having breakfast including the queen and Dylan who seem to be in charge of the kitchen now; Helen never expected a spoilt brat like him to be exceptionally good with cooking but turns out to be quite a chef.

“We have a problem, my sister is in danger…she was trying to talk to me when she suddenly started coughing out blood…I think Crystal has been poisoned we need to find her right now” Helen spewed so fast that it took a couple of minutes before they all digested the news. Lily and the queen eyes met before the queen shoot to her feet.

“I can get to her faster than any of you can…where is she?” The queen worried, Helen had never seen such fear written on her face before but she was hiding the fact that she was terrified quite well.

“You still can't go alone…She’s not far from her house…mom and I will go first, our aura will draw so much attention so you guys should be like back up, right now I have to go safe my sister, without powers she’s very vulnerable. Mom…let’s go-

“Helen, let me go with you” Alex requested but Helen shook her head before she gave her reason for objecting.

“My mom’s aura is enough to draw the demons of the whole state, then with me…it’s already as dangerous as it is, with your aura combined, even Vera will be notified about our presence. Our aura’s is too strong together, you have to stay back-

“I can hide my aura Helen” The queen informed and Helen frowned.

“You can?” Her question was answered by a soft chuckle that escaped Lily’s mouth.

“once’s you’re old enough...hiding your aura wouldn’t be a big deal but you are right? Alex cannot go with you…you two haven't learn how to hide your aura yet, it can be bad for all of us so…Lily and I, will follow you” The queen declared and everyone all bowed to receive her orders. So, they all walked outside where they let out their wings. Helen hesitated for a minute before she flapped her wings and leaped into the sky, following the queen.

“Want to race with me, I haven’t actually had the chance to compete with you before?” The queen turned towards Helen whose expression was pretty sombre as she wondered what Crystal’s condition would be at that point.

“You’ve always been praised to be the fastest flyer in all of Angel Bay; how can I possibly compete with you mom?” Helen politely turned down but all the queen wanted to scheme was a faster way to get to Angelique before it was too late.

“Then I’ll admit you are scared then” The queen fly faster and Helen scoffed before zooming past the queen but the queen continue to surpass her until it becomes a race between the two.

“Those two should seriously consider the fact they have someone following them” Lily muttered under her breath while trying to keep up with Helen who was now using the moisture in the air to rocket herself while the queen kept using sunlight, less than 7mins they were already landing in front of the public building, though they were invincible which give them more and easy access to walk past humans without being stopped, it wasn’t the same for every demons around them as they keep trying to attack them.

The queen being more powerful took the lead.

“Lily, Helen…you go ahead first or walk behind…No matter what try not to look at me” The queen warned before activating her phoenix power making it quiet impossible to look at her in the eyes, she was able to make light strokes that were quite lethal to demons out of sunlight. After she was done she joined Lily and Helen in looking for Crystal and Eventually they found her at the brink of collapse.

The queen was outraged at Crystals state that she lost control for a bit.

“My queen…my queen” Lily called out as queen Angelite stared at the shell which house her first born in nothing but pure fury. Lily knowing the queen was at her peak grabbed Helen so she could bend as the queen let out powerful light beams that travel throughout the building, destroying all the demons at once. Helen was shocked by her mother’s reaction and start to stare strangely. The queen rushed to Crystal and raised her into her arms while placing her palm over his chest.

“The child is still alive and Angelique is still okay, for now…we have to extract the poison, can you do this?” The queen requested after turning to Angela who had frozen in place out of shock but snapped out of her brief chance after the queen addressed her.

“Good…now, you need to do it-

“It’s too dangerous when I don’t know the sting point and how far the poison have spread, I might end up drawing out all her blood” Helen worried.

“If you don’t do it Angela…she is going to die, she won’t make it home” The queen’s declaration had Helen worrying so she decided to give it a shot. The first thing that came to her mind was to look for the sting spot which was fortunately; not that far…it was a three three dot points that were exposed on Crystal's back. Helen placed an hand over it and immediately start willing out the blood at first the blood was off normal colour, clear red until a dark substance started to ooze out to the surface, it was the poison; nothing else could be…Helen declared and concentrated more in getting more of the substance out which she did, Helen stopped drawing out blood after she figured the poison had left her body, Lily attested to it by raising Crystal up to her leg to check for any strange reaction but Crystal’s colour only start to return to normal.

“I think she’s okay now, we should get out of here because I’m certain more demons have been alerted to survey the area after what the queen did…we have to make sure to get out of here before we encounter the worst of the demons” Lily’s suggestion saved all of them since after they fly back into the sky, they saw enormous amount of demon heading into the building.

The queen after what she witnessed was quiet, she fear Crystal might not be able to return to have a normal life anymore since they already know she harbors her daughter.

“Mom…she’s going to be fine” The queen welcomed Helen's idea of consolation but fly even faster so they would be able to get back home on time.

“You have a physician amongst your troop right? Someone who would be able to examine the girl, the queen inquired and Lily chose to respond.

“Yes my queen. The head physician son Morgan is one of the princess troop member” The queen sighed in contentment upon hearing Lily’s response.

“The girl has to be extremely strong if I am to remove Angelique's soul from her” The queen spoke absentmindedly but didn’t stop flying faster. The queen rushed in immediately she landed almost forgetting to retract her wings which serve as a temporary blockage for her after reaching the door but she withdraw them quickly.

Everyone in the hideout seems to be waiting for them, they all seem to be unsettled since the queen and princess left so when they returned they all shoot to their feet instantly offering to help but the queen solely called on Morgan to check Crystal out.

“Her pulse is weak as well as her response…you might have been able to get out the poison from her system but some damages have been done, I would request some herbs which I will brew, just the gas will be enough to heal the internal injuries. Morgan took everyone’s silence as a push so she turned to Lily.

“I will need you to grow the ingredients for me” Morgan requested before he led Lily out of the house to the garden. Morgan mentioned every herbs that she needed and she grow them up one after the other. Morgan returned back inside afterwards, he walked straight to the kitchen to pound and heat the concoction he made with the herbs.

After the herb was ready, Morgan moved closer to where Crystal was, she had already being placed on the sofa but the crew found it surprising that the girl’s head was resting n the queen’s leg but they dare not voice against it after all the human she had on her lap was the shell that houses her daughter…all of them concluded in their mind. After Morgan fed the medicine to Crystal, Jasper was requested to carry her to one of the rooms, most of it were occupied so they settled for the queen’s room. Morgan also followed Jasper to make sure that the medicine was working since she was supposed to be conscious after that.

Morgan and Jasper where still seeing to it that Crystal was comfortable before leaving when Morgan froze; he was hit with a vision that had him balling the sheets he was trying to use and cover the princess.

“Is everything alright with you Morgan?” Jasper asked after it down on him that Morgan had zone out.

“A prophesy” Was what Morgan could use to handle.
