Lucy's Nightmare Part 2

Chapter 50

Madra knew that her granddaughter was just pretending, but all she could do was sigh at Lucy's laziness. On the other hand, Lucy was happy that her grandmother had stopped commanding her, so she decided to go to sleep.

In a flash, Lucifer took me to the place where I had last been with my mother. At that time, she was still alive. I was just a seven-year-old child, still crawling around the world.

Lucifer and I were on the other side of the road, where we both just stood as we watched the two creatures walk fast carrying their respective suitcases. A little girl and a very beautiful woman are holding each other's hands. No matter how lovely the woman's face was, you could tell she was in trouble with just one look.The woman seemed to be escaping something.

"Mom, where are we going?" That's the innocent question of the child. The strange thing is that we can hear them out loud from our position now. The woman smiled at her daughter with a strained smile.

"We're leaving Mary."

"How about Dad and Mom?"

"Your dad is waiting for us there. So hurry up Mary, okay? " The child nodded and smiled happily, as if they were just going on vacation or something. After that small talk, they started to walk again.

I know that what I am witnessing right now is no longer just part of an illusion or a dream caused by Lucifer's presence. These are now my memories, memories of my childhood.

"Why did you bring me here?" None of my questions were answered. But when I heard him laugh, I immediately turned to him and frowned.

"What? I didn't bring you here. " He defended himself. "Correction, you brought me here. This is your dream, guardian of the soul. You and your mind brought us here. " I was momentarily stunned, but I just sighed and ignored him.

I have nothing to gain from him. Not even a sensible answer.

When I turned around again, the mother and daughter were already standing in a pedestrian lane and were about to cross. They are waiting for the street light to turn red to cross. Yet it was there that I began to stand up straight. I am nervous and restless as I recall the few moments I witnessed as we crossed that road.

"Mom, look at that man. He has wings. " The girl happily announces this while pointing to Lucifer and my direction.

Is she aware of our presence?

It was there that I was stunned and turned my gaze back to Lucifer. He doesn't have wings, and neither do I. This event is not part of what I remember, so I am very surprised at what is happening right now.

But when Lucifer turned his glance behind us, I followed. There I was unable to speak again when I saw Saint’s face without emotion, looking in the direction of my mother and the young Mary.

Maybe he looks beyond us; maybe he can't see us.

Compared to Saint’s daily face, the Saint I am observing right now is an angel with white wings and long hair. He is wearing no clothes and just white silk covering the lower part of his body. His muscular body is exposed in front of me. Although his body is more muscular nowadays, I can say the body I am looking at right now is not that bad. But that’s not the thing I’m wondering about right now. Not his body nor his looks. My big wonder is why is he here in the first place?

When I turned my gaze back to my mother's face, I was surprised when her face filled with fear.

"Mary, don't look at him. Don't please Mary! " At that point, I was filled with astonishment. In my memory back then, my mother was hit by a track and she died. I always wanted to forget it because it was so horrifying, but what is this I am witnessing right now?

I quickly turned my gaze to Lucifer. I was thinking that maybe he was doing this to deceive me, but it wasn't. I can tell by looking at his face.

"I'm not that lame Guardian of the Soul. I won't waste my time on making such shite like this. " He even rolled his eyes. "This is your dream, the past you always want to forget." It was there that my lips parted, and I was a little nervous. The presence of Saint, as an angel of the gods, and the fear in Mom’s eyes told me it wasn't that simple by then. Something is happening that is beyond my memory.

When I looked back at Mom and my younger self, they had no intention of crossing, but Saint's quick approach to them made my mother decide to cross even though the street light was not red yet.

"Oh my goodness!"

The young Mary was even more taken aback when she turned her gaze to the Saint, who was already on the other line and walking alongside them. "Mary, hurry up! Mommy, "she exclaimed as she tried to pull young Mary along while walking. But my younger self couldn't take her gaze away from Saint.

"Mom, I think he's not a ghost. He's not a grim reaper either. What is he? " The little Mary asked her mother, but Mom could not answer her back when suddenly a rushing track came towards them. My eyes widened, and I was about to run towards them when Lucifer took my hand to stop me.

"If you interfere, there's nothing you can do. This is just a memory, an illusion made by your mind. " There, I stopped my plan to approach them. However, I couldn't stop my trembling hand. Tears even welled up in my eyes as I watched what was happening. I watched as my mother died.

But in the middle of the raging track, it suddenly stopped right in front of Mom. Suddenly, everything around me stopped moving. Even the blowing of the wind, flying birds, and vehicles. It seems like at that time, time was stopped. And only Saint, who was walking closer to my mother, who was shocked at the moment, and my younger self, who could not understand what was happening, were the only things that were moving. From where I was standing right now, I could hear every step of Saint's. It was accompanied by a strong beating of my heart.

What is going on?

"Eve Lorenzo Ivanovich, I order you to give me your daughter right now. " My mother hid me behind her back. She was trembling, but she tried to be brave and face Saint.

Now, what is this?

"You can't take my child! My child is mine and I will not give her to you or anyone! We are only humans, not instruments of your will! Fools! " My mother screamed furiously. Saint appeared to be calm in front of her.

"That child is destined for me. No one can ever change their written destiny. You don't want to oppose God's will, Eve? " There was a threat in Saint's voice. That's where my lips parted.

So, Saint already knew me? Does he know about our destiny? What is really going on here?

"I'm not afraid of you Saint, but this is my daughter and I won't let any of you tie her up. I know how hard it is to be with the son of God. I won't let him experience what I experienced at the hands of Adam! " At that point, Mom kept screaming. It was full of anger and disgust. My mother's tears were already flowing. But then the shock came over me.

What the hell are they talking about? What is this? I'm confused as fuck!
