" A Path Set On Skulls And Paved In Blood "
special - ' After another failure Jonis contemplates
his Mission '
Another one was just feet from his grasp and he was
completely ready to do it. He was positive now after
he saw it use its power. But before Jonis could do
anything Dio stated, "I must go because what
I did is unprecidented. I must speak with Delphine
and tell her the news." A swirling puddle of
darkness opened up beneith Dio's feet and Jonis knew
that he might never see it again as he saw it disapear
in the puddle. Another one just in his grasp and he
was unable to seal it. He had already sealed fived
of them and only had eight left one of which he already
controlled so he only had seven left. If he knew how
hard it was to locate them then he would have never
agreed to this job. Not like he had a choice in the
first place. It had taken him hundreds of years to
seal those five which would mean that it wouldn't
be until 1330 or so till he could finally rest. Longinus
controled one of them too but lost his control long
ago. And for some reason these people seemed to be
messed up in the entire story playing their parts
just as he plays his. Jonis had always love the annaligy
of a chess board and him being one of those pawns.
But would it be any better to be a bishop, knight,
or castle because all of those pieces are secondary
to the top piece. Any of those pieces can be lost
and you can still win and Jonis didn't like those
odds.
Jonis knew what would be asked of his friends by Longinus.
He knew because he had been keeping an eye on Longinus
for much longer than these past fourty years. Longinus
just can't let someone live who claims to be or is
even a god so he will try and take him down. Jonis
knew that Longinus had grown complacent and soft since
he had nothing to fear these many years. Besides one
of them will be bound to show up during this confrontation
of super powers and Jonis should be there to seal
it.
"I may have always chosen the sidelines to watch
everything happen but this is one time time that I
am actually routing for one side," Jonis whispered
as he followed along behind them.
