Chapter 10: "Come back home."

                                    

                                          

TIME: 01:00 A.M 
LOCATION: Germany. Báthory Mengele's private island. 
"Rayne. What is your current position?", Severin asked. 
"Just leaving Madagascar. Should be reaching Germany in four hours by my calculations." 
"And where did you find a pilot to offer you a free trip all the way here?" 
"No one. I am actually using the power of Aerokinesis." 
"Oh, right. Given your affinity for darkness; it does stand to reason you are highly attuned to witchcraft." 
"I already told you this minutes ago, Severin..."
"I know. I just wish you started relying less on yourself; and rely more on God..." 
"Shut up, 'church guy'." 
"Hey-that's not funny at all, Rayne. I am far from being perfect. I have my own deficits too."
"Let's put this aside for the time being. I have to find a way to enter that bitch's castle." 
"Let me know when you make any progress." 
"Roger, Rayne.", he ended the call. 
Hidden in the bush, Severin noticed a gang of four ex-Nazis sitting on a bench. They were all having fun talking to each other about their lives. 
Severin planned to create a distraction. He picked a pebble, and threw it in one. They all laughed at him. The soldier then started a fight. Next thing you know, they were fighting to death. Severin used this opportunity and speed-kidnapped the one who was largely left out of the picture. 
"How do I get inside Báthory Mengele's castle?" 
"Scheiß auf dich, amerikanisches Schwein!", he refused to answer. 
Severin grabbed him by the neck and uttered somehing in German: 
"Antworte mir, sonst wirst du spüren, wie die dunkle Hand Beliars dein ganzes Gesicht verbrennt." 
Severin set his left palm on fire.
"Alright. Alright. I will be cooperative." 
"Good lord. That is better." 
"Now, tell me." 
"The big and rich families of this world hold a wedding celebration here for Joseph Mengele's daughter and her fresh stud!" 
"You mean Elijah, Rayne's son, has gotten married to a psycho bitch?" 
"No. That is not possible..." 
"Believe whatever you want. I do not care." 
"Now, do you want me to deviate or stay on the subject?" 
"Continue, 'fraulein'.", he mocked the ex-Nazi.
"Front entrance is locked. No one comes and goes as he or she pleases." 
"How do I bypass the lock?" 
"You can't! Báthory owns this place. If there's a way to open it. Only she knows." 
"But, I am around here for some time."
"Your best chance is to get through the sewers."
"The back and the front of the castle are under constant surveillance. Proceed at your own risk." 
Severin left him off his grip. 
The ex-Nazi saw him readying his fist. The soldier sighed in disappointment: 
"I assume you won't let me off without body harming me?..." 
Severin winked with a smile on his face. 
"Alright. But to do it fast!" 
Severin knocked him out and hid his unconscious body in the big bush he was in. Severin took the soldier's outfit and put it in a case. He carried it with him and planned to change clothes once he got inside the castle via the path of the sewers.
