Chapter 369 - THE VISION
Raine came in full preparation. She wasn't stupid and arrogant enough to think that she could defeat the devils by herself or the fact that those devils would keep their words like a gentleman.
With Belphegor was holding her neck, Raine wrapped her hands around his wrist. Of course, to push him away was only an empty wish for Raine, her strength wouldn't match the devil.
However, she knew what his weakness and used it against him wisely.
Without the devil knew it, Raine had smeared her palms with her own blood. No, she didn't cut herself with the dagger that Sunny gave to her. Raine had her blood drawn before she came here, because more or less, she knew what she would face.
Once Raine's palms, which have her blood on it, made skin to skin contact with Belphegor, he screamed in agony and abruptly dropped Raine to the ground.
Yet, before Belphegor could even recover from his shock, a beast jumped over Raine's head and pounced on the devil.
Seeing this, Raine immediately rolled her body away from their battle. She would have died if she lingered there longer.
Crawling, Raine approached Sunny, who was sobbing as she felt her entire body was in pain.
"We have to go from here!" Raine informed Sunny and tried to help her to stand up, despite her complain.
"What happened?" Sunny asked breathily. She looked at the scene behind her, but her puzzled expression told Raine that she didn't see what she saw.
Raine couldn't fathom what she was seeing and didn't have to figure that out as she was too busy to help Sunny walk and dodge the attack that she couldn't see in order to get out from that rooftop, which now had turned into a battlefield.
Sunny grimace and whined in every steps that they took when they walked down the stairs.
Raphael would be able to find Raine, hence she didn't worry about that, the only thing that she needed to do now was to protect herself and Sunny.
Raine was sure Raphael and the other would be able to take care of them.
"Raine, what happened there? Do you see that? Why they want your blood?" Sunny was always a chatter, even in this situation she has many things to ask.
"It is much better for you to not know about this." Raine murmured under her breath, Sunny was not a fatty, but she was taller than Raine, therefore, she was a little bit struggling when she had to support her.
"Raine, I am sorry, I have to do this because my family is being threatened by Mr. Reiz.." Sunny tried to explain herself.
"It's all right." Raine couldn't find a reason to blame all of this on her as the Andoori family was only out of luck for being caught in the middle of this catastrophe situation between the creatures that they didn't even know exist.
"My family is in need for financial support and Mr. Reiz from de Medici family offered his help.." Sunny went on with her rant.
In the other hand, Raine knew she wouldn't be able to stop Sunny from ranting her words and explaining herself, thus she let her be.
Amidst of Sunny's rumble, Raine was trying to find a way out from there and tried to remember the way back to the entrance door.
".. I want to decline Mr. Reiz's order, but my father said I have to do this for our family.." Sunny said regretfully. She gritted her teeth, trying to bear the pain.
However, when they reached the first floor as they walked down the same corridor that they passed before, all of sudden Sunny stopped talking and shoved Raine inside a small room right next to her.
Caught out of guard, Raine stumbled and fell to the ground as she heard a loud sound of door being closed.
Raine immediately backed away and stood up. Her eyes turned rigid when she watched how Sunny's eyes had turned red.
Those eyes were the same eyes like the child in the blue moon pack and also the eyes of those twenty five polices that came to their house a few days ago.
Raine could feel the chill that ran down her spine.
Was this the time for her vision to come true? Sunny would kill her because she was possessed by dark magic?
So, it was true that the blood in Raine's hands was her own blood? Would she die now?
Raine remembered how difficult for them to defeat the child, if it wasn't because of Torak that the one who holding the child so Raine could give the final blow, Raine didn't think she would stand a chance.
But, why Sunny wasn't affected by Raine's blood when she helped her out from the rooftop, but then Raine realized that Sunny was wearing leather jacket and gloves, the details that she had missed.
Sunny's lips split into an eerie smile when she tilted her head to scrutinize Raine.
"Sunny.." Raine called out her name, hoping she would answer her or she could find a little bit sanity in her friend, but it was only a wishful thinking as Raine also knew there was no way out from this situation.
It was either she or Sunny who would die.
Raine felt her throat tightened. The memories of Sunny and their other friends flashed before her eyes, such happy memories back then.
How they used to laugh and quarrel and how Sunny used to talk very fast and reprimanded her about silly things.
But, is this how it would end?
Raine's finger clutched tightly on the dagger in her hand, the dagger that Sunny gave to her before. Sunny's condition couldn't be helped anymore..
When Sunny moved very fast to approach Raine, at the same time, both of the girls raised their hands and made slashing movements.
Raine managed to hurt her, but that wasn't the action that stopped Sunny, because the only thing that could stop her was Raine's blood and that was exactly what happened when Sunny pierced her hand through Raine's chest.historical
