CHAPTER SIX : THE TWELFTH BLOOD OF THE SINNER (PART THREE)
THE CONTINUATION...
The day has come when Jin Ae will take action against Lady Margarita.
"I'll pretend to be a pregnant woman? This is insane," Izaac said, sweating because of Jin Ae's plan. But Jin Ae smiled at him.
"That's the plan, and we have one chance to do this," Jin Ae said while raising her eyebrows.
" Do you remember that Lady Margarita is not an Aswang? That's why our pregnant props have no use to the Nukekubi ." Izaac said.
"Yeah, I know, and again as you said that's only a prop to make more convincing," Jin Ae said and she saw Izaac still uncomfortable with her plan.
"Besides that has no effect to the Nukekubi but to someone we have in the mansion. Yes, as they were attractive to pregnant women." Jin Ae added and because of what she said Izaac was confused on what she said.
"What do you mean?" The man asked her.
"I have a feeling that the thirteenth blood of a sinner is just around, This is what they call. Killing two birds with one stone." Jin Ae smiles and she grab her dagger out from her pocket.
"Are you talking about me? Why are you so mean to me? Huh?" Izaac said.
"You are exempted duh?" Jin Ae said and she rolled her eyes to the young man.
"You are a demon and that's why Lolo Joseon sent you to me. To guard me on my mission as he wanted to make sure that I was doing my tasks and completing the thirteen blood of the sinners." Jin Ae said.
"Then who do you think is the thirteenth sinner?" Izaac asked Jin Ae.
"We will find out later, but for now let's focus on the twelfth sinner, and it almost seven oclock in the evening and remember what Manang Josefa told us?" Jin Ae ask and Izzac immeidately answer.
"That's the time when her sister changed her form into a Nukekubi," Izaac answered.
"That's right and everything is ready. Manang Josefa hides in her room now and other villagers was scare of the monster so it means no one can see us here how we kill the Nukekubi." Jin Ae said and her hair color change from black to red as her other identity emerge.
Until the time came when Jin Ae was already hide herself in a big tree. While Izaac pretended to be pregnant using Jin Ae's magic spell he became a woman to make her impersonation more realistic.
While Izaac was sitting on a wooden chair in a park, he felt a cold breeze. He looked around when suddenly Margarita's head appeared from the garden and the Nukekubi was about to strangle its victim using its pulley neck. This is also one of the Nukekubi's abilities where they can stretch their neck allowing their neck to roam freely and that's one of the abilities of Nukekubi.
"NNNNOOOOO!!!:" Izaac screamed when he saw Lady Margarita in the form of Nukekubi. But Jin Ae immediately uses her power to stop the Nukekubi and she grabs Lady Margarita's arms.
"It's payback time, Lady Margarita San Pablo, " Jin Ae said and suddenly the place changed and Lady Margarita's appearance back to its normal form. And She noticed that she was inside the mansion again.
"Morning? Why I am here?" She said with confusion when she saw her reflection in the mirror she saw that her appearance change and she wears a uniform of a maid.
"Agnes?" She said and she touched her face but everything was real. And then she heard footsteps from the second floor where she saw Jin Ae.
"Why are just standing there? Did you finish all your tasks?" Jin Ae said as she went down the stairs.
"Why I am wearing this and what is going on?" Margarita asks
"What do you mean?" Jin Ae replied and she raised her eyebrows.
"Why I am wearing this dirty uniform and why you are wearing my gown? Do you know how much is that gown? It's worth 2 million. Your salary won't be enough to pay me if that gown will destroy." Margarita said.
"Really? You don't know me, Lady Margarita," Jin Ae said and laughed at the woman.
"What do you mean? And why are doing this to me? Who are you?" Margarita asks as of this moment she is still confused.
"Wrong, your question should be... what am I?" Jin Ae said and laughed again.
"Bring me back to reality, I don't want this," Margarita said.
"What are you talking about? Finish your task and remember you still have a debt from me, because your parents are poor." Jin Ae said and she flipped her red hair and walked away from the Margarita.
"This can't be real, this is just a dream, not real," Margarita said until suddenly everyone fell silent and she saw the man holding her hand.
"Mom," The man said
"Ryota?" She said when she recognized her son's voice and saw Helga's severed head on the ground. She remembered this scenario when she stopped her son from leaving with Agnes.
"NO! Stay away from her!" Margarita said but it seemed her feet had a life of their own and just like what happened in the past, Ryota and Agnes approached the Head of Nukekubi. And suddenly the Nukekubi's intestines curled around her neck. The same on what she did to Agnes before she killed the poor woman.
"Let me go," She screamed and she tried to remove the intestine of Nukekubi from her neck. Suddenly she felt sharp nails tearing her stomach and everything around her went black and once again the place changed and she noticed she was inside of the mansion again.
"Where Am I? She said and she noticed that she was at the dining room where she recognized the dining table and the chandelier but everything is dark inside the room. She immediately check the time on the wall clock.
"Seven o'clock," She said and she was about the leave but it seemed like her legs don't follow what she wanted to do and she saw a cellphone on the top of the dining table.
"Celina," She said as she was about to reach for the cell phone, someone quickly pulled her into a dark part of the mansion into a secret room. Where she usually hides if she transforms into a Nukekubi.
"NNOOO!!" She screamed again after she was pulled by the Nukekubi.
"Enough, enough!" Margarita said and she cried And she heard a faint sound of applause and she was back in the Present where her hands and feet were tied to a bench.
"Hello, Lady Margarita?" Helga greeted her.
"What are you doing, release me, you don't know me. I can order my men to kill you," Lady Margarita said angrily to Jin Ae. But Jin Ae smiled at her and shook her head because of what she heard from the woman.
"Lady Margarita, don't be like that, instead I gave you a time to repent your sin." Jin Ae said.
"What repent? You must be kidding me, Helga. Why should I repent my sin? I am innocent." Lady Margarita said.
"Oh really? Because of that, I know what to do next. I feel so bad for your soul." Jin Ae said.
"What do you mean and what do you need from me? Money? Just let me go and I'll give you money. And that's why you are here right?" Lady Margarita said.
"No, I want your soul and blood," Helga said and Helga's eyes immediately turned black.
But when Helga was about to stab Lady Margarita, suddenly something hard blocked her dagger, causing the dagger in Helga's hand to fly away.
"We won't let you do that," A woman's voice said as Helga looked to see who had stopped her, she saw Jasmine, Catherine, and Akihiko.
"Hey, girls and Kuya Aki, how are you guys doing?" Helga greeted them while smiling at them.
"Enough of this nonsense Jin Ae, you are not like this. Please Jin Ae," Jasmine said.
"Who are you to order me to stop? Coming from a traitor friend?" Helga said and the dagger flew back at her.
"I know you're still there Jin Ae, please listen to us," Catherine said.
"Don't interfere with my mission, You guys will have to stay away from me before I change my mind," Helga said and waved her hand to create a strong gust of wind, which caused Jasmine to be injured as she also lost balance.
"That was the element that you usually use to defeat your enemies but you're too weak to become the master of that weapon," Helga said and grinned at Jasmine.
"Jin Ae stop this, I know you are a good person," Catherine said.
"Shut up! You are trying to deceive me," Helga said, and suddenly the dagger she was holding changed. The dagger changed its shape and became a boomerang. She quickly aimed it at Catherine, but Jasmine responded quickly and blocked Helga's dagger.
"Jasmine," Catherine said worriedly and Helga's weapon returned to her again. As soon as Helga touched her weapon, it returned to its previous appearance and she said.
"How can I stop if I already like what I'm doing?" Helga replied and twirled it around in her hand.
"Jin Ae, your brother doesn't want you to do this," Akihiko said.
"Sis, please you have to stop this, did you know that the blood that you are collecting is those mortals who have made with the devil and when you complete the thirteen bloods of the sinners you will become a devil completely," Catherine said.
"I know, Duh," Helga said and she noticed that Lady Margarita was trying to escape. But she immediately followed the woman and stabbed the dagger that she was holding at Lady Margarita.
"Lady Margarita San Pablo, I'd already given you a chance to repent earlier but you didn't," Helga said as she gave the woman a terrifying smile.
"No!" Lady Margarita said crying and for the second time, Helga buried the dagger that she was holding repeatedly until a red liquid splashed on Helga's face at the same time as her eye color changed from black to red just like the hell fire. From Helga's eyes, you can see the souls screaming along with Margarita's soul and they are surrounded by the burning fire of hell.
"This is absurd," Catherine said when Helga successfully obtained the blood of the twelfth sinner. But Jasmine screamed when she saw a creature hiding in a large tree.
"What creature is that?" Jasmine asked as her voice trembled while she pointed to a creature in the huge tree with red eyes.
"It looks like Lady Margarita's sister is here, The Aswang," Helga said and Izaac immediately asked her.
"What do you mean by that?" Izaac asked her. But Helga remained unresponsive and the two of them walked away from the place where Jasmine, Catherine, and Akihiko were currently facing the Monster.
When the Aswang was about to attack Catherine. Jasmine immediately dodges the attack of the monster.
"Who are you, why are you doing this?" Jasmine asks and she immediately presses a button on her pipe then a huge volt of electricity hits the Aswang. The Aswang roared as this was hit by a strong electric voltage.
"You don't have to do this, we are not your enemies," Catherine said but the Aswang suddenly attacked them again, Akihiko changed his appearance into a kitsune while Catherine recited a spell which caused the Aswang unable to move.
"Catherine," Akihiko said when she saw Catherine reciting a prayer.
"We didn't kill your Sister, your sister made a deal with the devil," Catherine said and the Aswang's appearance changed. From its fierce appearance. It changed its form from being an Aswang to a human form.
"You must be Josefa?" Catherine said and the old woman was surprise on what she hears from the young witch.
"How did you know my name and about my sister?" Josefa asks.
"The spirits told me, and we asked a help from a Babaylan in this village. He told me everything and he already forgive you for what you did to her daughter." Catherine said.
"Mang Ador," Josefa said and she already knew who was the person that Catherine was referring. She didn't realize that she already kneeling on the ground crying.
"What did I do to all the victims of my sister," She said.
"After your sister kills her victims and sucks their blood. You go to her victims to eat the victim's entrails." Jasmine added.
"Miss Josefa you have a chance to change and be free from that curse. You are affected by the deal of your sister. And that is the reason why you have become an Aswang." Akihiko.
"But, I kill so many innocent people. Do I deserve the change you are talking about?" Josefa said.
"Miss Josefa, Nothing is impossible as you repent your sin and you will go back to him. He will forgive everything that you did. No matter how big or small it was." Jasmine said.
"No, I'm not deserving of that forgiveness. You guys have to kill me. For me to stop doing it again." Josefa said as she was referring to what she did to her victim.
"Stand up, Miss Josefa you shouldn't kneel to someone like us, but if you really wanted to help you be free from the darkness without killing you. We have someone that can help you to return to the good side." Catherine said.
"What do you mean? Is there another way to become normal again?" Josefa asks Catherine and the young witch smiles at her and then she says.
"Yes, you have to find Sister Yael of the Sister of Light. She will help you to purify and become human again." Catherine said.
"Who is Sister Yael?" Akihiko asks
"It's Raven, Kuya Aki. The Bellators change her name for her safety, as she was the head nun of the new Sister of Light." Jasmine replied.
"How can I find her?" Josefa asked. Catherine approached her and held Josefa's head.
"Close your eyes, and I will let you see the place," Catherine said and that's what Josefa did, she close her eyes and she feels a cold wind cover her entire body.
"A church?" Josefa said while she saw in her vision the place where she can find Sister Yael and the sister of light.
Meanwhile, as Izaac and Jin Ae were leaving, Izaac asked him again about Josefa and the so-called thirteenth sinner.
"Josefa, was the Aswang who kills other villagers, she is just using Lady Margarita as a front cover, but Josefa is not the one who is said to be the thirteenth sinner." Jin Ae said.
"I thought she was the one you said, The thirteenth sinner?" Izaac asks.
"So Miss Josefa is the Aswang?" Izaac asked again.
"Yes, and she was the one who killed Agnes after Lady Margarita suck her blood. She ate Agnes's baby in her womb." Jin Ae said.
"Now I understand," Izaac said.
"Let's go home, I need to get a long rest after this mission. I am so exhausted."Jin Ae said.
"Do you have any idea who's next?" Izaac asked her and the woman nodded her head to answer his question.
"Yes, and that's where we'll go after we take a long rest.." Jin Ae said.
On the other side of the story, Alexander was gasping for breath when he got up from his bed.
"It was just a dream," He said but a cold hand suddenly grabbed his arms, and when he turned to see who was holding him. Alexander screamed when he saw a creature with a hideous appearance. And because of his scream, he woke up from his bad dream again.
"Am I dreaming in my dream, maybe I am just tired and stressed." He said. Since he couldn't sleep anymore, he just checked his social media accounts and it seemed like he was trending again because of the song he made. He read the comments on the music video of his song but one comment caught his attention.
"The devil is coming, your time is up" He read the comment of an unknown user and he was terrified.
