While he was in his last breath, he said, "I met Peter! He was poisoned by the witch but do not worry he is ok now. He has my heart power but you might need to be careful as I cannot protect you once you are on your own. My time is almost up! The guardians will take me back to Ashes and until you give the book to Peter, you might face great danger because there are people out there who may kill anyone to get this book."
Sussan wanted to say this book is not as important as his life but he couldn't mouth out the words. She squatted down and held his hand while tears rolled down her eyes.
"I am sorry, I feel helpless. I don't know what I can do to make you feel better! Let me know about anything you need, I will try to fulfill it" Sussan said.
"Now I know why he took a liking to you. If only he never met you, everything would have been fine now. After being alone for so many thousands of years, he wanted a family of his own but the girl who he fell in love with was actually already taken. He tried to control himself but he could not, so..." Ashes Lord's replica said and he almost looked like he was in his last moments.
"No one should know about Peter and Elly. No one! It is quite dangerous if they know he has 2 kids. The people will do anything to attain that much level of power. It is for this reason, Asher always made sure to keep him alone. His power brings destruction and nothing else. Please save Ashes Lord! This is my last request! I beg you… I am sorry..." Before he could finish, he took his last breath, and his whole body crumbled into ashes.
The light emitted later entered the book and disappeared into it. Sussan sat there for who knows how long. She could not digest the news she heard just now. She is in love with David and he is her husband now.
Even though he never asked about the origin of Peter and Elly, She knows, he wants to know about it. Not that she did not want to tell him but she herself did not know how she got pregnant.
Now she understood! She remembered and was able to connect the dots now. Every time she went to Asher, he was there! And she felt like she had forgotten something or some part of her memory and could not recall whatever that was! It was always blank and when she found out she was pregnant, she went into hiding!
She did not know how it happened, all she had was fear! Uncertainty! Hopelessness! But now she is stronger than before! She will make sure Ashes Lord pays for what he did to them.
When she came to her senses, everything around her was empty. The book which was in her hand disappeared. David came running towards her and lifted her up.
"What happened? Where is Ashes Lord? Did he say anything?" David asked her many questions but all he heard was silence from her.
Sussan just looked at David and then walked away without saying a word. She stood next to Brenda and said, "Let us go back. We need to find our kids."
"What is wrong with you, Sussan? Why are you behaving this way? Did Ashes Lord say something? What did he say?" David kept on asking Sussan, looking all worried.
Sussan ignored him and walked away pulling Brenda along with her. David chased them and stood in front of them.
"Tell me, what do you know? What did he give you? Take it out right now." David demanded.
His appearance totally changed, his skin became wrinkled and old. He looked very scary and his face showed no mercy.
"Everyone run," Sussan shouted. She took a little bit of 'birneoseis' powder and murmuring some magical words, she threw it at him.
But before it could even touch him, he shifted and moved like the wind behind Sussan. Brenda opened a portal and pushed the old man into it. While he was pushed, he held Sussan and tried to pull her with him.
Cathy came running towards them and took a magical knife and threw it at the old man. It went straight for his chest, and so to avoid it he left Sussan's hand.
"You ok, dear?" Cathy asked Sussan.
Sussan just fell down because of the force and hit the rock next to her.
Sussan could not process, what had just happened? If David is not David then where is David? Whatever happened today had made Sussan wonder what she should actually believe and what she should not?
At that time, Peter along with Robert jumped out from a portal. Everyone looked at them in awe. Cathy was the first to react and ran towards Robert to hug him.
"Robert, my dear grandson! You are back! How could you leave such an old lady alone with your mother? You know how horri.."
Before Cathy could complain, Brenda shouted, "Mom..."
Peter went near his mother and kneeled down before her. She put his hands on her shoulders and said,
"It's going to be ok, Mom! Let us go find, Dad. We will find them together. Do not worry, I am here for you"
She lifted her head and looked at Peter, she hugged him and whispered into his ears, "I have the book"
"I know but let us not talk about it now, Mom. We need to go and help rescue Aunt Linda" Peter said.
Sussan turned and looked at her clan who was now standing around them. Hiding her fear and sadness she looked around and said, "Now it is our time to fight back and not to run. We are brave, we have magic in our hands, We know these witches can disguise themselves and can mingle with us. So if we are cautious and act with our cunningness which our ancestors taught us, then we will be the winner and no one can stand against us."
"I want you all to go back to the border, while I and my mother will go rescue the people who the Old witch imprisoned. Cathy will lead the group but do not try to cross the border until you see my signal across the border"
