The Crown's Mundane

"You can't blame me, you all know I don't like her".....he said.

"Then why did you call me?"... Nova asked.

"Well, omna looked worried, and it wouldn't kill if she is alive, and you all want her alive so"...

"You're so confident you would live"... omna said.

"Well I would only be affected for a few days".

Omna looked at the man beside him.

"I'm leaving".... Nova said.

"What?...." alvah and omna shouted.

Omna looked at him again, "Did you save Zillah only because you were affected".

Alvah looked at him, he didn't expect him to figure it out.

"I didn't know If I would still survive.

But I didn't stay here for maybe a day and leave empty handed, you have to bring her back".

"Tell me the reason".... she said to him.

"I don't know she's not my business".

"She's your business and your priority, she was deceived by you trying to complete her mission and now she's dead, Dead".

"The only reason you brought her here was because you too were affected by the enormous dreadful pain you felt before she died and you are still weak.

You are selfish alvah".... Nova shouted.

He glared at her. They both looking at themselves in the eye. This didn't seem okay to Omna so he disappeared.

Alvah, Nova and dead Zillah were remaining.

Nova said to him,

"Do you have any idea what she would be like when she wakes up, you haven't done the malevolent ritual before and you went ahead and used her as your first experiment.

We never forced you to convert did we?, your situation has been a burden to us most especially because you are the soul of celestial.

You have gathered enough information from us because of the fact that you are still a part celestial, we are an open book to you and the infernals but here we are having no information about Tartarus.

Believe it or not you are still a born celestial, you are an infernal but still a pure one which is the only reason you still have an access here.

I would only bring Zillah back if you promise me one thing"

Daivik was found. They were all told what happened to Zillah, but everything was fine when omna who had returned told them everything.

Alvah took Zillah to her room, laid her on the bed and laid down too facing the ceiling, Zillah who was pale and cold was now okay.

She was given back life.

He turned to look at her for some minutes. he then faced the ceiling again.

"I have to come up with an explanation for Azazel,... he looked at her,... and her".

He chose to rest a little.

Keva and the others came to see if Zillah was back because omna didn't tell them anything about her coming back from what he had told them

When they opened the door they saw her sleeping, alvah had left when he sensed them coming.

But they still sensed his dark energy, it just fills the air that you would know it's him.

They reported to omna, reporting that he was around.

Omna now wasn't scared since from now on whatever she suffers he suffers it and if he hurts her he too would be hurt.

"It's okay he said to them, Zillah is safe".

They weren't sure why he said that, but they took it upon them to care for her.

Alvah appeared laying on his bed, when someone walked in saying "You are alive"....

He turned his head to see who it was, it was Azazel.

He sighed and sat up.

"For how long did you know?"...

Alvah knew exactly what he was talking about, and didn't hesitate to lie, "when I too almost died".

Azazel looked at him, he asked, "how was it?"..

Alvah asked, "Death".

"Yes", he nodded.

"It was not funny".... he replied him.

Azazel laughed, he said,....

"I know you went to Elysian".

"To do what?"... Alvah asked.

"Don't take me as a fool alvah, you went to Empyreal Of Life, didn't you, So she's alive".

Alvah nodded.

"So how're we doing this, is she staying here or there?"....

Alvah looked at him, "There of course".

"You don't want her here..., he asked smiling. Or you now have a reason to go see keva everyday"

"It's been a while since I've seen or heard from keva".... Alvah said.

"You will give up on her very soon especially now you know your mate, it has started hasn't it?".

Alvah laughed, Yes.... he said to himself.

"I wouldn't harm Zillah, do you know why?"...he asked him.

Alvah said.... "No".

"Ha, he exclaimed. So I wouldn't harm you", he looked at him.

They both laughed at what was happening at the moment.

But it's good Azazel understands.

He left the room after the discussion.

"It remains Zillah".... he said.

The day had passed and alvah was still thinking about what he would say to Zillah. He didn't sleep a bit, but it didn't disturb him.

When he felt the time was right , he left to Elysian.

He appeared in her room, daivik and Aeron were seated with Zillah awake.

She woke up, he said to himself. Then I would have to come in the night.

He looked at Aeron and daivik who were just looking at him, he looked back at Zillah. When she got eye contact with him, she immediately looked away.

Meanwhile Alvah hadn't shifted his gaze on her. Still thinking of what to say, turns out he stayed up all night for nothing.

"Things would have been Soo much easier if they weren't present"... he looked at them again.

They just kept staring at him and around the room.

He ended the silence saying, "I need to speak with Zillah".

"We don't have ears"... Aeron said.

Zillah had a curve at the corner of her lips from the blanket which covered her lower face as she had laid back down.

Alvah looked at her as if knowing, she saw his face and ended the smile.

"Walk away"... he said. He was moody today.

They felt he actually wanted to talk to her. They stood up, in their amazing height, they were astonishing.

They left the room, but alvah didn't start speaking, he walked to the door and opened it, they were standing there, he looked at them.

There they left.

He closed the door and looked back at Zillah, "when did you wake up"... he asked.

"Last night"... she replied,

"Wow!"... she answered,

I actually thought she wouldn't reply me, why isn't she mad at me, or has she lost her memory, all these raced through his mind.

He walked to her eye sight. He said...

Why do I feel like you are avoiding my eye contact".

She didn't reply because she sure was.

He sat on the couch, leaning forward. He really doesn't like this and she is the last person.

"I'm...sorry"....he hesitated to say it.

She looked at him finally. I died trusting him. She sat upright on the bed.

"What did Omna tell you?"....

He replied back with a question,

"What did he tell me, what could he have told me?"...

"Omna must've told him what to say"...she laid back down covering her face.

Alvah stood up and carried the blanket away from the bed, dropping it on her couch.

There she was exposed.

"What's your problem?"..., she shouted.

She sure is alright, he thought.

" My problem is that I'm apologizing and someone is ignoring me".

"Where's the script?"....she asked him.

"What script?".... he asked back.

"The one they gave to you that you can't act".

He laughed...,

"You think I'm pretending"...., he asked.

"I know you're pretending"...., she replied.

"I'm behind the reason you are alive.

"You are the reason for my death in the first place",... she counteracted.

Intense glaring from the both of them.

"I am sorry"..., he repeated.

"What do you want to do next?...she shouted,

What's your next motive?, would you leave me in tartarus, or tell Azazel to torture me, or leave me for keva".

"Zillah"... he shouted,

"What?"....she replied quickly

There was silence.

"You want me to admit my mistake, I've already done that, you want me to apologize, I've already done that.

If you don't believe me, you can ask omna".

She scorned.

"He's not lying".... a female voice from in front of alvah spoke, She appeared.

"I'm aware of his actions"...., she said.

"Third Chamber, you are here"... she said.

She hugged her, Nova reciprocated.

"Trust him, at least this time, I've spoken to him".

Zillah looked at alvah, who got back his cool.

"He's a silly boy, ignore him, she said to her. Forgive him".

She looked at alvah, who looked back at her with lazy eyes. Nova disappeared leaving the both of them.

"You are the first person I have begged like this".... he said to her.

Zillah still didn't budge.

"Fine I'll give you my promise, ask, what do you want?"....

She hesitated, after some few thoughts and conclusion, she said,

"I want you to promise to take care of me".

He looked at her asking, "Why?"...

"Why shouldn't you take care of me?"...., she asked back, "it's a first step".

"It sure is a first step",.... he muttered, Zillah didn't hear what he said.

"Also"..., she said getting his attention, he looked at her.

"Yes,... she said, I want you to help me with my test".

"What test?"..... he asked her.

"You'll see"... she replied.

"That's all, only that"... he asked for confirmation.

"Yes".

"Fine, I promise".
