Chapter 21: Maia`s Story
;:;:;:;:;: I'm back. Thank you to the people who make movies that it goes on now. Because yesterday I saw the movie: The Blood Wedding. In case you don't know him: It's a wedding and the father-in-law and a restaurant owner clash. After a while the situation escalates: the restaurant guy takes the bride and the groom's mother hostage and the father-in-law stands with a gun in front of the restaurant gate and throws hand grenades into the courtyard.
My favorite person's dog was shot, that made me really depressed. And I can only write when I am depressed. That makes it easier for me than the people who have to be happy to write: Depression phases can be created artificially, so that's not a problem, but I'm usually only happy three or four times a month. You would never get a Kapi done there!
So, enough of the preface, here you have what I wrote!;:;:;:;:;:

“Hey, let me go! What are you idiots thinking of anyway ?! ", Teiga shouted angrily, who was being dragged through a narrow corridor by two demons. They were really clever: they had hidden underground so that they would not be discovered. Teiga just happened to slip right over the trapdoor that led downstairs. The demons wanted to know what was there, opened the door and Teiga came sailing down. Before she'd even found out what was going on, she'd been caught and her guns taken from her. She suspected that she was now being taken to Lenya.
`` It's strange. ''
What is it this time?
`` Doesn't it surprise you that the demons have built huge castles everywhere, even underground, and the people have nothing at all? ``
Hm, now that you say it ...
`` Yeah. I think it's unfair. I also want to have an advantage over the demons for once! ``
Don't complain! This is my task!
`` I am you. ''“Wait here until the mistress comes! “, Suddenly one of the demons said and she was dropped. She was now sitting in a small, square room that was only lit by a few candles. The demons went out and left them alone. “Have the others noticed that I'm no longer there? If so: WHERE ARE THEY ?! Don't they want to take me out or what? She yelled at the walls.
`` Would be possible after what you said to Sky. About 'let's just go on with our old life' and so on. ''
What do you have against it ?! I want it that way and if he really loves me, then he has to tolerate it!
`` Good point. Because that's exactly what he does. He respects your wish even though he wishes otherwise. He loves you, damn it, and wants to be with you! ``
Exactly at this moment Lenya came in and Teiga had to interrupt her thought conversation. Angry, she got up and said, relatively calmly, “So we'll see each other again.Give me my sword back and we can end this right now! "Her mother just shook her head slowly and then replied in a tone like she was speaking to a child:" No, you are not here to fight me. I have far bigger plans for you. "
“And what should that be? “, Asked Teiga and already assumed her classic fighting position. “You should lend me your strength. Just like Maia did! “, Came the answer and Lenya calmly came closer.
"What does this mean? “, Teiga asked confused and took a step back. Her mother just laughed. “So you still haven't understood? This is really disappointing. I thought you would be more intelligent. Well I want to explain it to you. "
Teiga waited for her to continue. So she did: “Do you really think Maia died in a training accident? No, she was way too good for that.She mastered her techniques perfectly. She died on my orders. "
"No! How could you...? Why did you do that?! “Was Teiga`s reaction.
“It's really easy. I told you when we last met: 'Your powers were far superior to mine'
She was of no use in hand-to-hand combat, but her demonic abilities were unusually strong. They were so different from mine. It took me a long time to determine what kind of force it was. It was one very similar to mine, but with key differences.
I wanted to get Maia to use her powers for this war. We would have been invincible. But she decided against destroying the people. But I didn't want to give up her powers. She threatened me to fight people if I force her to fight. That would have been fatal. And if I couldn't have her powers, no one should have her!That's why she had to die! ", Lenya explained. She continued, “So I thought I had lost her special abilities forever, but then I found a demon who had the same abilities, if not stronger! "
“What kind of powers are you talking about anyway? And what kind of demon was that? ", Teiga wanted to know and the answer was:" The demon ... you were. And the power ... is the power over ... "
She got no further, because at that moment the ceiling collapsed over them and Sky and Kenji came down, followed closely by Yuna.
“Do you know that this is really the worst time for a rescue operation that you can imagine? ", Teiga called to her rescuers. But she followed them obediently through the destroyed ceiling back to the sunlight. “We're not going to kill you this time, Lenya! We are still gathering our people for the decisive fight! Until then ... we'll let you live, "said Sky, who was about to leave.Lenya called after them: “Pah, as you mean. Then this time I'll let you go without a fight! Just remember, Teiga: your eighteenth birthday will be in a few days! There the strength of which I just spoke will also develop in you. And then ... we'll meet again! "
Oh, you can do me, thought Teiga. New strength that I do not laugh! She'll atone for killing my sister! She can experience something!
`` Do you really think it's going to be that easy? ``
Naturally. I almost had it twice already!
`` But you do too. ''
SO WHAT?! I can do it. Besides, I still have my friends. I can rely on them, can't I?
`` In itself ... the only question is: how much longer? After what you said to Sky, I really can't understand why he's still helping you ... ''
That's really nasty of you. I just want to go the easiest way. And it just has to be without Sky ...
There was no more answer, just silence."Damn it! Now I've forgotten my sword down there! “, Teiga suddenly noticed. She wanted to run back in, but was stopped by Kenji with the reason: “Are you insane ?! They could have killed you and you want to go back in there? You can't do that, they'll impale you! "
Teiga had to agree with him for better or worse. So she stole her brother's sword unnoticed and the four hurried to leave the mountain again. “Um, why are we even leaving the demons alive? We could just kill them all now? “, Yuna wanted to know. Kenji also explained to her: “You saw it. We collapsed almost all the aisles. They can no longer get out of there and are stuck. So we have enough time to plan our next step.
But what else interests me, Teiga: Why did she talk about your birthday the day after tomorrow? Does that mean anything? "The addressed shrugged her shoulders and did not answer. She didn't know what it all meant ...
