Deus Nos Ducit Ad Astra Per Aspera

Chapter 34: Unknown



With the Rebell cell destroyed and the culprits laying 2 meters under, Anastasia returned to her work space to do her Royal duties.

She has to check on her company, the state of Russia and her people. She needs to do her Saintly duties and visit the leaders of the faithful. In short her bag is full and bursting with tension.

Atleast she has Victoria, Tatiana and Constantine with her to lighten her migraines that she gets from paperwork.

Is this what dad goes through? And this is only a fraction of what he does. Anastasia can only put her head on the table from the exhaustion.

-Unknown Place?-

Darkness, that's what here is.

This place is devoid of light, the only thing one can 'see' is two beings standing next to each other.

"Anastasia really has a lot to do."

Said one of the two.

"Yes, atleast she has help, she will need it."

Said the other.

"Say, Light, do you think she will remember anytime soon?"

Light, one of the two looked at the Abyss that's their surroundings.

"I do not know Darkness, I hope she will, before this thing breaks out."

Darkness looks at the cage that is before them.

"That's why we are here, to guard it until we can reunite with her."

Light nodded at Darkness.

"That I agree with, sister."

Light and Darkness are the two children that were born from the frustration of Mankind. And that God sent out to be born.

The Cage stirred as a loud thump can be heard.

THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP

As the Being inside the cage neared the edge it revealed itself through the light that Light cast out.

A massive Dragon with seven heads, ten horns and ten crowns steps into the light.

The Dragon stares at the siblings.

Then it began to laugh

"HAHAHAHAHAH, you hope to hold me in this puny cage until she remembers and awakens her true power?"

The Dragons voice boomed across the Abyssal Darkness.

"We will hold you until you die from boredom." Darkness said as she stared at the Dragon with distain.

"Hahahahaha, you can't hold me here forever and you know that! I will break out and tear you apart and then take over her body!"

Light and Darkness didn't flinch from the Dragons threats.

"You have no power over us and you know that, Beast."

The Dragons 14 eyes burned with wrath. It hit the cage with such blows that would blow apart star systems.

"Your delusion will not save you children of Mankind!" The Dragon roared with furry.

"And your arrogance will not break you out of your cage, Beast." Darkness provoked.

The Dragons eyes continued to burn.

"Come and join me, I will give you Worlds to rule! Every desire of yours will be sated and every dream you have will be fulfilled!"

The siblings ignored the Dragons attempt at manipulation.

"Your words can't stir us Beast, for every head of your bears a blasphemous name."

Light retorted.

"And your very first words you uttered from your maws when you gained thought were lies."

Darkness replied.

The Dragon laughed at the siblings.

"Why resist me! What do you wish to accomplish by staying here and keeping me locked in this blessed cage!

For what have you fought for, Light! You fought against GODS all to save Humanity?!

You try to mimic the sacrifice of the Savior?!You are a fraud!

And you Darkness, you defy your fate! You are the Anti-Christ! You are the doom of Man, why resist that fate. You can rule over those weak beings with an iron fist!"

Light and Darkness stared at the Dragon with indefinance.

"I fought for Humanity so that they could live without fear from those gods, my sacrifice was for mankind's freedom from the gods. I do not dare to take the place of the Savior. Someone you failed to tempt!"

Light responds.

"I refuse my Destiny of invoking tyranny upon Mankind, to deny my fate of being your puppet for your evil plots!"

Darkness screamed out against the Dragon.

"You Fools! You dream of a bright future when you know the Dread that your Anastasia will befall upon Man! She will be my new puppet to bring damnation upon mankind as you watch with terror how we destroy what you sought to protect!"

"Anastasia is not weak to your lies, we are with her and will guide her to her destined path." Light said.

The Dragon roared in furry as it stomped the 'ground'.

"I have tempted the Morningstar, the brightest light of Heaven! I will get my claws on her and you will die before my wrath!"

Light responds.

"And what did you think of tempting a mear Cherub? You thought that a Cherub could beat the Prince of Heaven let even the very Creator of Existence?"

"I am the absence of HIM, it's very manifestation! That Cherub should be able to kill Michael but he failed!"

The Dragons horns glowed red in furry.

"That's why he failed, why you failed. For you are HIS absence, and Michael was empowered by the firm belief of his Father. For everything is possible through HIM, even killing you." Darkness struck the reverse scale as the Dragon went in a frenzy.

"You forget that we are locked in her Soul. I will be able to corrupt her mind and you will have no power to stop me." The Dragon calmed down as it said with a grin.

"And we will fuse with her, sacrificing ourselves to become one with her and killing you." Both Light and Darkness said in unison.

"So begone now Beast and wait your eventual demise." Light said.

The Dragon frowned.

"Oh please, call me by my name. I am not some Beast for you to belittle me."

The Dragon said as it retreated into the Void of its cage.

"As you wish,
