《Claimed By Darkness》CHAPTER 19
Advertisement
School seemed to be getting better, especially since I now had a new friend, Luna. She was quite an oddball, but I liked hanging out with her a lot. Jude seemed to like her as well, and soon enough we were pretty inseparable.
Surprisingly everything's been quiet and calm, which definitely puts me on edge. I have this awful feeling in the pit of my stomach that something big is going to happen. And soon.
Regardless, I try my best to live in the present and ignore that pit in my stomach. It was now a Tuesday evening, and we were all hanging out in the common room when we heard Ms Murphy's voice over the intercom.
"All students please make your way down to the dining hall in an orderly fashion." She bellows. We all look at each other, it was almost 8 o'clock in the evening! What could possibly be going on?
We all make our way down their and take our seats at our usual tables, so I'm on my own of course.
"Quiet down everyone!" Mr Faye says into the microphone before passing it to Ms Murphy.
"Thank you for making your way down here, I'm sure you are all curious about what you're doing here. But something bad has happened, in many towns throughout the country there have been attacks made by the White Chain. The same terrorist group that attacked our school around a month ago, they've already captured some major cities and that is why we are putting the school on lock down."
Everyone starts going into a panic, but I'm completely speechless... The White Chain wanted power, that's what Harry, their leader told me. They must have been stealing people's powers with that stupid amulet.
"Okay okay ! Settle down! We've spoken to your parents, and they agree that this is the best course of action. This school is highly secure, and you will all be safe here until this blows over." Ms Murphy finishes off. I meet eyes with Jude who looks slightly worried. Then the teachers dismiss us back to our dorms.

I wouldn't stand for this, I had to try to stop Harry and the White Chain. That prophecy says that I would be the one who takes them down, if I was even the one in the prophecy that is...
As we head back into the common room, I bring Jude and Luna to a quiet corner to talk.
"I can't be locked up in here for who knows how long. I need to stop Harry."
"Odette are you crazy? That guy must be even more powerful now, he's been capturing hundreds of powerful elves and stealing their powers." Jude whisper yells.
"I know, but remember that prophecy? The countess of darkness must bring forth dawn, and a forbidden relationship will help forbid war" I recite.
"Wait. You're the countess of darkness?" Luna asks.
"Apparently, that's what Ms Murphy said to me."
"What are you going to do?" Jude questions, drawing his eyebrows together.
"I don't know, but I'm going to stop him." I reply.
"Not just you, we are going to stop him!" Luna whispers excitedly.
"Yeah, there's no way you're doing this on your own Odette." Jude says.
"You guys really wanna risk your lives? For me?"
"Yeah, this is gonna be awesome!" Luna exclaims tossing her blonde hair over her shoulder.
"I wouldn't use 'awesome' in this situation, but yeah of course we're going to help you." Jude said.
I smile brightly at them, "okay, now I just have to ask Mr Faye or Ms Murphy about it. They have to let me go."

Fortuna Verto
A girl’s luck changes when her world changes upon itself, sending her back and forth between a world she knows and another that shouldn’t even exist. Working with her parallel self from that other world, the two must adjust to their alternate form when visiting the other’s world, as they search for a way to escape the chains of misfortune they are bound to. While this story is the conclusion of the trilogy, it is also fully capable of standing alone in its own light, as the world of Celese itself is no longer a place the characters will be journeying through. However, the events of the story are a spoiler for all previous books, in case that matters to anyone. This book has an additional chapter after the final chapter that represents the trilogy conclusion, and should not be read until all three books are read first. Fortuna Verto continues the events of Essentia Animus to advance society into a sci-fi interpretation of Celese, bringing events to a distant world of another star. At the same time, events interpret a real-world advancement into a similar sci-fi age of another planet that shares Earth’s galaxy, a planet that has also been linked by the Celesi Veil. English remains predominant in both worlds of the story, but the presence of both sides makes certain Aethyx terms stand out, while Earth-styled scientific terms will also stand in a powerful contrast. Instrumentation remains an important aspect of the Elemental Era, but the influence of the gift has grown distant after discovering the superiority of the elements. Harnessing the elements had eliminated some of the original limitations of instrumentation, allowing for a self-sustaining focal source that provides solutions to problems such as automation. This turns the development available from the previous modern-day sense of a fantasy to one that is deep-future. Finally, opening access to the passage across the veil will open this progress in comparison to a very similar deep-future parallel world without such fantasy elements, contrasting the laws of physics with the laws of elements in a convergence of time and space.
