Chapter 11: Dianna's Nightmare

Ivan's POV
It was getting dark and I walked towards the city hall with the bag containing Harriet's head


5 witches suddenly appeared in front of me and I chuckled


"This never gets old" I said as they all made to attack me
I grabbed one by the hand threw her far away
The others made to attack me but I grabbed one and made a nasty break on her arm and she let out a loud wail


"You all make me want to remove my glove and burn you all" I said as I forcefully dipped my hand into the last witch's chest and ripped out her heart


I carried the witch's heart on one hand and Harriet's decapitated head on the other and I walked inside the city hall


"Enough of the games Aria Dixon!! Show yourself!!!" I yelled
"Aria!!!!" I yelled again

"Ivan Hammington, I didn't know you to be the loud one" Aria said as she came into view


"And I didn't know you to be the type to hide behind your underlings" I said as I splattered the witch's heart on the floor


"You killed them all" she said


"Did you expect otherwise?" I asked


"Your reputation precedes you Ivan Hammington" she said


"So I've heard" I replied


"You came with my mother's head" she said


"I heard you were infuriated by her death, she was a nice woman, too bad she got on my nerve and had to die" I said and she chuckled


"How is Dianna doing?" she asked


"Release my sister from the death slumber before I cut off your head like I did to your mother" I said


"Oh calm down Ivan, why are you getting so angry when we are just getting started, you should've expected this when killed my mother and cut off her head"


"Oh please, do not give me the pretence that you are doing all this to avenge Harriet's death, we both know you do not care a tad about her, this is all in your stupid ego to prove to everyone you the all powerful Guardian of The Hell Gates" I said and she smiled


"Maybe you are right, I don't care about my mother but at least I have the decency to avenge her death, no matter how bad you think I am Ivan, I still don't match the Cursed Hammingtons"


"If you were able to kill all your siblings to become the Guardian of the Hell Gates, lock up your mother and tell the whole world she's dead, send some witches to come fight me even when you know you are obviously sending them to their early grave, if you could do all that Aria then you are no less a monster than I am" I said


"Enough of all the talks, I thought you came to get my head" she said


"I've gotten enough heads" I said as I threw Harriet's head to the ground "Am aiming for the heart now"


"My heart" she laughed "Am afraid you won't be able to get that. You see, the thing with you Hammingtons is that you believe yourselves to be supreme and above all others, therefore you all act arrogantly and incautious, because you are all immortal you believe you cannot be harmed, but with the new curse of your demise, how immortal are you now?" she said as she flicked her hand and my bones began cracking


"You all think you are the most powerful so you do whatever you want, kill whoever you want but how powerful are you now Ivan Hammington?" she said as she curled her hand into a fist and the blood started pouring out my nose and eyes and I fell on my knees


She moved closer to me and held my face
"The mighty Ivan Hammington, the dreaded beast, on his knees before me, I will make sure you die Ivan and your siblings? Am aware that Gia has entered Dianna's nightmare in a bid to try and save her but unfortunately, she will die along with Dianna in her death slumber and Eric? I have already sent my witches to go take care of him and before tomorrow, the Hammington line shall exist no more" she smiled


Gia's POV
I walked aimlessly round the vast barren land not finding a soul
Everywhere was as quite as a graveyard and I saw no breathing being


Where could she be?
This is supposed to be her worst nightmare coming to reality, what could be Dianna's worst nightmare?


"Dianna!!! Dianna!!!!" I called out loud continuously


"Dia......" I suddenly felt a bolt of pain on my head as an intruder smashed my forehead with a log of wood and I passed out...


Eric's POV
"Look Eva, she's bleeding!!" I exclaimed as Gia's suddenly developed a nasty cut on her forehead


"Something went wrong, she must be in danger" Eva said


"Put me in there too" I said


"What?!"


"I said put me in there!!!" I yelled "I will not stand idle and do nothing while my family is in danger of certain extinction!"


"Even if I want to put you into Dianna's nightmare Eric Hammington I am not able to, the Death Slumber spell isn't a simple spell especially when it's cast by a very powerful witch like Aria Dixon, putting Gia into the nightmare already consumed my powers, I will need some time to recuperate!" she said


"Eva...."


"I said I do not have the powers to...."


"Shhhh" I said as I quickly covered her mouth with my palm
"We are are not alone" I said as I brought out a dagger out of my pocket


A witch suddenly appeared out of the thin air and I slashed her throat with the dagger


"What the.....Do you carry a dagger along with you all the time?!!" Eva exclaimed


"Is that seriously what you are concerned about right now?!"


"There are more of them" She said and I suddenly felt slash on my shoulder


"They are here, and they are using an invisibility spell, I can try to disrupt their spell and make them visible but I won't be able to join you in the fight, you'll have to fight them alone" Eva said


"Fighting them alone won't be a problem, just make those scrawny witches visible for me to kill" I said


"I can't believe am aiding in the killing of my own kind" she muttered as she began the spell and the witches slowly came into view
There was a whole lot of them


"This should be fun" I said as I grabbed my dagger and they all ran towards me


Gia's POV
I woke up to find myself in an old looking dungeon


"What is this place?" I muttered as I stood up
My head was still aching from the hit but I ignored the pain


"Hey!! Anyone out there?!!!" I yelled as I banged the locked door


A man soon came and unlatched the door


"Who are you? Why am I here" I asked


"You disobeyed the order of our leader so you must be punished according to the law" the man said


"Punished? What order did I disobey?"


"Our leader had ordered that no one must be seen out during the daytime, you disobeyed that law and our leader shall decide your punishment" he said


"Okay, am new here and I had no idea of such law, am just in search of someone by the name Dianna Hammington, she's probably in one of your prisons too please let me see her, please" I pleaded and he grabbed me tightly by my arm


"The leader will decide your punishment" he said as he dragged me out


"Thank your luck that I do not have my powers in this world" I muttered


I was dragged into a large room and thrown to the floor


"I swear I'll rip out that hand of yours!!!" I yelled angrily at the man


"You dare speak in front of me" I heard a very familiar voice and I turned to see Dianna right in front of me


"Dianna!!" I exclaimed as I made to touch her but the men behind her quickly held me back


"No one touches our leader" they said


"What?! Your leader?!!".....
