The Audience With The King

Something appears out from the shadows the whole places changes, the pile of bodies melt away and become black water the magma floor cracks open breaking the rocks into pieces then lava covers the whole floor. What came out of the shadow was a big statue sitting on a chair, more like a throne made out of bones and skeleton heads and big massive horns on each side.

That status was looking a lot like the statues in the Halls of Angels but instead of a golden statue this one was more like coal colored.

"So this is him? The one who shall receive my blessing" the statue asked.

It's voice was low but deep at the same time, it was demanding and yet calming at the same time.

"Yes my Lord he is the one who is here to receive your blessing" the woman bows down leaving Ezra starstruck like he just saw his crush or favorite celebrity.

"Are you certain? He doesn't seem that much to me" the statue not satisfied.

"I know my lord and you are right, but look at what he wields sire" the woman continued.

"Mmh, maybe he got lucky" the statue said.

"You do realize that I'm standing right here, right?" said Ezra.

"He's feisty I like him" the statue impressed.

"Thank you I try my best" Ezra said.

"Leave us and go to your position I think something is trying to take a chance with us" the statue ordered the woman.

"Yes my Lord, till next time boy" the woman wipes of the lipstick of Ezra's mouth then leaves.

The room gets intense and dark giving off that uneasy atmosphere everywhere.

"So you have come to see me?" The statue asked.

"Are you the one who is supposed to bless me? Are you the one's who's sit was empty?" Ezra asked.

"Is that what that snake told you?" asked the statue.

"Yeah those were his exact words" Ezra replied.

"What makes you think you are worthy to be blessed by me? I mean many have tried and failed and I believe you've met them" said the statue.

Behind Ezra the water starts to boil, steam evaporates into the air and now the water is floating with bodies.

Ezra sees that and focuses on the statue.

"I don't think I am worthy of you or anyone, just a few weeks ago I was just a normal kid looking after his sick mother, who I hope is okay" Ezra feeling down.

"Show me if you deserve my power or not" the statue said.

"Huh?" Ezra lost.

"Fight them and if what you wield doesn't turn you into them then I shall bless you" the statue said.

The dead floating bodies start to move and Ezra finds himself standing in some rock in the center of it all.

"Seriously does everyone in here wants me dead or what?" Ezra being optimistic.

The dead bodies swim towards Ezra's direction.

"Okay I guess I'm doing this" Ezra prepared himself.

One of the bodies jump aiming for Ezra at first he's distracted and doesn't see the flying body coming straight for him, he's busy fighting off the bodies that are trying to climb his rock. The hand he's wielding weapon with moves on his own accord and cuts the flying body in half.

"Whoa" Ezra looks at the weapon.

The weapon Ezra was wielding was a kendo stick, it's color wasn't the normal everyday life kendo stick it was ashey and coal looking, it was slowly cracking up.

Ezra kept fighting off the dead bodies that were trying to climb and for him, finally got tired. But the dead bodies weren't getting tired they became faster and lunged over one another pushing each other down. A few managed to get their hands on Ezra, who even though he was tired fought them off.

They became too much for him they were winning, now the bodies were pulling him down by destroying the rock he was standing in. He was loosing.

"Okay no more games!" Ezra was now under the dead bodies who were climbing him.

Ezra jumped so high he practically was flying for a few seconds, he held his weapon with both his hand "aaahhh!!!" He shouts, then he he pushes against the dead bodies. A bright light glew pushing the dead bodies far away from him, a blue light released some kind of black smoke that screeched as it was getting pushed.

The bright blue light disintegrated the dead bodies that weren't pushed, Ezra was now breathing heavily like he was tired. His eyes glew blue for a moment and his hair turned a streak of blue too for a moment, air was floating around him then he went back to normal.

The rock Ezra was standing on top of went back under water and a walking path erupted beneath the water making the way for Ezra to cross.

"So what how did I do?" Ezra trying to catch his breath.

"Look at the weapon you are wielding" the statue informed him.

When Ezra saw the weapon he was amazed by what he saw the weapon was now black and shinning, it's holder was wrapped in black bandage. It was now a sword.

"Whoa" Ezra inspecting the sword.

"Whoa indeed" the statue said.

"So what does this mean?" Ezra looked at the eyes of the statue.

The statue's eyes glew orange like fire and so did Ezra's eyes.

"This means now that you have been chosen by my weapon, and I have now blessed you with my power. And borrowed you my sword" the statue said.

"Will I make it in time for the pending doom lurking all over the Holy Place?" Ezra asked.

"Leave now boy and go save the Holy Place and do not worry about your mother, those who have been blessed. Their families are now under the protection of the angel that blessed them, so she's going to be okay" the statue smiles.

Ezra is Swallowed by the snake again and drops him by the entrance of Babylon.

"You've done well human" then she slithers away.

Just as Ezra walks out of the gate something drags him by his feet and pulls him away.
