Scary Visions

"Anastasia wake up!" Ezen tried to wake her up but she still didn't opened her eyes.

While Equinox was investigating her wound which was on Anastasia's arm. She noticed black spots on it... and when she touched it. Her mind started to see various visions.

In the first visions. She saw a knife being covered with a blood.

In the second one. She could see a woman slowly entering into a fire pit while the people around her were bowing down before her and chanting something.

And in the third last vision. There were darkness spread everywhere. But in that darkness there were noises of people screaming with agony.

Equinox was feeling very uncomfortable with sounds that's why she covered her ears. "Get out of my head." She kept repeating to herself.

Ezen got worried. "What happened!?"

Equinox opened her eyes and looked at him while being scared. "We need to bring her back. She is in trouble."

Ezen: "But how!?". He didn't knew how to bring her back.

Equinox: "Only you can do that... I don't have my powers anymore that's why it is in your hand... Save her... Snatch her back from that pit of darkness before it's too late."

Ezen also understood what she mean't. That's why he started to chant a spell that is forbidden for anyone to use. But now, he had no choice. He wanted to save her.

Anastasia who was trapped by Lilith. Soon got her concious mind back. And that time she quickly used her power and used every bit of a strength to push Lilith away from her.

After that, before it was too late. She felt like someone was snatching her soul back in her body. That's why she was feeling very tired. She closed her eyes and felt everything being very hazy.

Anastasia woke up from her unconscious state while huffing like crazy. It was like someone was choking her.

Ezen tried to calm her down. "Are you okay?"

Anastasia tried to control her anxiousness. "Yeah... Kind of."

"But what exactly happened to you in your mind? I got few visions about it." Equinox asked while being worried. Anastasia saved her that's why she didn't wanted anything bad happening to her.

Anastasia touched her head because of the pain. "I don't remember anything. Everything is hazy in my mind..."

Equinox thought about something. "Maybe, i have a idea who might be behind this..."

It is very obvious. Only Lilith could do this thing.

Ezen: "No talking about what happened before... Take a rest. You are weak now."

Anastasia got confused. "Here?" How is she supposed to sleep here?

Ezen: "Yes. And stay here only for few days." He said it because he knew that something evil is behind her, that's why it is safe to stay here.

Anastasia: "But what am I supposed to say to my family?" She became hyper.

Ezen: "Say anything you want. But now. You need to sleep." He holded her hand and chanted something to make her sleep.

Anastasia yawned and felled asleep again in a second. Looks like the sleeping spell really worked.

Ezen looked at Equinox who was staring at Anastasia with seriousness.

Ezen: "Why are you staring at her?"

Equinox flinched because of his voice. "Huh? I am!? I don't know.." She glanced at Anastasia. "I can't shake the feeling that i have seen her somewhere. But don't know where..." She started to think.

Ezen: "I thought the same thing before but, i think it is normal. She is a human afterall. This might be her reincarnation."

Equinox shook her head. "This is not a reincarnation... It's something different. I have never seen something like that."

She knew that Anastasia was not normal when she heard that she is a ressurector. Because ressurectors are very rare to find nowadays...

The last person she met who used to resurrect people was. "Amara Dalton."

Ezen thought about it. "So... Are you trying to say that Anastasia is a reincarnation of Amara Dalton?"

Equinox again shook her head in no. "That's impossible! Amara was part of the descendants from the heaven. And the one who is born in that bloodline. They never get incarnate. But if someone..." Before she could speak. Her head started to pain heavily because of remembering the past.

Slowly little memories started to come in her mind making her more emotionally exhausted.

Ezen: "It's okay. Don't waste your powers in remembering the painful memories. You should also take rest."

Equinox nodded while touching her head.

Ezen: "But... When you finally remember. I would like to know everything in detail."

Equinox: "What do you want to know?"

Ezen: "What happened in 1400's? How did you died? And most importantly, what traitory you did that made you get punished for centuries?" No one ever told him about it.

Equinox also don't remember anything. "Even i forgot how i died. Maybe it is because i was staying in hell for many years. Maybe that's why my memories hazy. But if i see something familiar. I will remember everything."

Ezen took out a page that Anastasia gave him in the diamond palace. "You wrote this letter. Right?"

[Ezen i know that i am a traitor. But please I don't want to die. She is going to kill me. I don't know if i will stay alive or not. But whatever happens, just make sure to bring me back]

Equinox glanced at the paper. "Yeah. It is my handwriting."

Ezen: "Then what do you mean by "she is going to kill me" who was trying to kill you? Do you remember anything?"

When she heard about it. Equinox suddenly got a vision from the past.

In the first vision she was running from someone while being scared.

In the second vision. She hided in the closet and wrote a note to Ezen because she completly gave up.

In the third vision. Someone opened the closet and snatched her out. She could clearly hear her scream that time.

Equinox covered her ears again and took a deep breath. She was very frightened by the memory.

Ezen also understood it. That's why he told her to go in her room... And after she went outside. He glanced at Anastasia to check if she was asleep yet. And after taking reassurance. He left.

(Next Morning)

Anastasia was in a call with her mother because Ezen told her to stay with them for few days. That's why she came up with a perfect lie.

Anastasia: "Mom you don't need to worry... I am just staying with my friend for few days. Is it alright?"

Claudia was not buying it. "Oh really!? Then what is your friend's name?"

Anastasia: "Umm.... It's Erica..."

Claudia: "Ohh, Erica? I don't remember meeting her..."

Anastasia: "Mom i can't introduce you to everyone. She is my new friend that's why you don't know her..."

Claudia: "If she is your new friend then why are you staying with her? Huh?" She became suspicious. "Anna tell me the truth. You don't have boyfriend or something. right?

Anastasia: "How could you even think that?" She acted like she was annoyed. "But anyway, Can you pack my clothes and stuff? Because i am coming there to pick it."

Claudia: "Sure... But you better not skip your classes because of this. Otherwise..."

Anastasia: "Yeah i know... Good bye. Take care. Sweet dreams. I am going." She hung up the call and sighed.

***

Claudia got confused. Why did she said sweet dream in the morning? But she decided to shrug it off because she was in hurry.

Emily came out while taking her school bag. "Mom! I am ready. Let's go." She glanced at the telephone. "Who were you talking with?"

Claudia sighed. "With Anastasia."

Emily thought about it. "Yeah... She didn't came last night. Right? Don't you find it suspicious? Mom mark my words. She has a boyfriend but she hiding him from us."

Claudia chuckled. "Even if she does, then what is wrong in it? She is an adult now. She can make her own decision."

Emily grasps. "You are super partial. When i told you that i want to have a boyfriend. You screamed at me and now you are being so supportive to Anna? I can't with this favouritism." She sighed dramatically.

Claudia hitted her head gently. "Go study first then think about being in a relationship."

Emily pouted and mumbled under her breath. "Screw the studies. No one likes it.."

Claudia glanced outside of the window and noticed the school bus waiting for them. "Let's go.." She dragged Emily outside quickly before the bus leaves.

***

Anastasia was exploring the mansion when she heard a glass shattering noise coming from down stairs.

She went down to check what happened. And as she went downstairs, she saw Equinox practicing her spells. But none of her spells were working. That's why Equinox was very disappointed with herself.

"Having trouble?" Anastasia couldn't believe that Equinox's magic was not working. Because the way she cast spell was very unique.

"Yes" Equinox chuckled. "As you can see, my powers are down."

Anastasia: "But you look very skilled in casting spells. How long have you been practicing spells?"

Equinox: "I have been doing this for half of my life."

"Ohh.." Anastasia was impressed. "By the way Equinox. Can you help me?"

Equinox: "Sure. I mean, you helped me too. That's why i would love to return the favor." She sat on the sofa while wiping her hand with a tissue. "Ask me anything you want."

"Actually..." Before Anastasia could ask for her help. They both heard a woman screaming noise.

"Ezen where are you!?" Succubi came inside of the mansion while screaming. She looked very annoyed.

Yesterday night she heard about the chaos that happened in the hell. That's why she came to ask Ezen about it.

Equinox's head started to hurt because of the noise. "STOP SCREAMING! HE IS NOT HERE."

Succubi was stunned to see Equinox... "My goodness. Sister, you really got a big mouth after coming from hell..."

Equinox crossed her arms and stared at her. "What do you want?"

Succubi raised her eyebrows. "Still arrogant? I see... Looks like you really resurrected her." She looked at Anastasia but quickly ignored her and looked at Equinox. "But anyway, where is your younger brother?"

Anastasia became shocked. "Wait! He is younger than you?"

Equinox smiled and looked at Anastasia. "You couldn't guess it. Right?" She giggled. "I know, i look younger..." She said it while complimenting herself.

"ANSWER MY DAMN QUESTION..." Succubi couldn't control her anger anymore.

Equinox flinched because of the noise. "Woman you better learn how to talk with your elders! Be polite sometimes."

Succubi rolled her eyes. "Ohh please! Stop acting like you are some kind of Saint. Atleast i don't do traitory like you."

Equinox didn't actually cared about her taunt. "Are you done? If yes, then you can leave... There's the door."

"There's the door bitch!" Anastasia said while pointing at the door.

Succubi looked at her with scared expression. "Are you copying dialogue from scream queens?"

Anastasia gave an awkward smile. "Yeah... I felt like saying it.."

Succubi sneered. "You are creepy. From now i am going to stay 5 feet away from you."

Equinox: "Yeah do that..." She holded Anastasia's hand. "Let's go upstairs and talk about your problem." She looked at succubi. "And you can leave. I will tell Ezen about your arrival." She said while waving her hand. "Bye.."

After that both Anastasia and Equinox went upstairs to talk. Leaving succubi fuming with anger.

"These bitches! Two people who i hate the most are together." She snickerd. "Anyway, i don't give a fuck..." After that she stormed out from the mansion angrily.
