The Curse
Request Fic for Brianna

~*~Chapter Nine - Anthros~*~
Disclaimer: I do not own any real person in this story. Every real person is somebody (namely from my school), but I have changed their names to protect their privacy. I do however, own Lilith, Pethules, Anthros, and Eravile.
I own 'The Curse of Wings' and the 'Guardian's Seal.'
I also do not own 'The Childhood of a Pharaoh' by Kaira-chan on FanFiction.net
The only names that I have not changed are Brianna, Kathy, and Julia.
I also do not own Yami from Yu-Gi-Oh. I just felt like putting him in the authoress notes. It's so much more fun when I get to torture somebody! ^-~
THANK YOU TO BRIANNA FOR COMING UP WITH THE IDEA AND BASIC PLOT FOR THIS STORY!

Meira: ANOTHER UPDATE!!! None of you thought that it would be this soon, huh?
Yami: ... I know you're trying to finish this story... that would make only 2 completed multi-chaptered stories... Out of how many?
Meira: Shut up...
Yami: Well... do we get to see Brianna sacrificed?
Meira: You'll see...
Yami: -_-
Meira: To all of you who hate me for being so *ahem* cruel to my friends... There's torture in every one of my multi-chaptered stories. How could a story be good without conflict? But I assure you... *crosses fingers* Everybody will end up safe...
Yami: -_- She's a cruel hearted authoress...
Meira: HEY!!!
----------
"Oh my god..." Meira breathed.
"This is just beyond weird..." Julia whispered.
Kathy nodded in agreement.
The sky had cleared... But instead of white moonlight shining through...
The moon was blood red.
"What does this mean?" Kathy asked.
"I... don't know..."
***
Brianna sat there in the dark, just waiting. There were no windows, no trap doors... There was no way that she could escape...
"Little Levian," a voice said. Brianna whirled around to face the woman. "It is nearly time for the ceremony... you only have two hours left until midnight..."
"Just try and sacrifice me," Brianna spat.
"Oh don't worry... we will."
<Just great. It's Halloween, we dared the preps to go into a Haunted House, they got stuck, then I got captured and am going to be sacrificed to some nutcase... Stupid destiny...>
"Your friend believes in fate," the woman crooned. "She might blame it all on the chosen path of life..."
Brianna death glared the woman.
"Oh, don't be silly," the woman laughed. "We won't let ANY harm bestow on your friends. We don't need them. Though they might hurt themselves if they try to save you..."
"Who are you?" Brianna asked, all of a sudden furious.
"I...?" the woman asked. "My name... is... Lilith..."
Brianna gasped. <Lilith! That was the name that we were hearing all along! No wonder!>
"Scared, are we?"
"You wish..."
Lilith laughed. "Be as impudent as you wish... it IS your last day to live..." She smirked. "Just wait patiently..."
With that, she left the room.
***
"Okay, let's see..." Kathy whispered. "Red moon..."
"Type in Dream interpretation also..."
"What good is that going to do?"
"Don't know..."
"No matches."
"Here... I remember something..." Meira whispered, leaning over to type in an address. "Let's try this story..."
"Story?"
"Yeah, 'The Childhood of a Pharaoh'," Meira replied. "I remember this guy saw a red moon..."
They waited impatiently as Meira looked through the chapters.
"Are you done yet?"
"Um... I think it's in this chapter... Nope. Make that the next chapter..."
"So?"
"Here it is... 'A blood red moon can mean many things. Death of a great one, or one loved by many. It can mean war, or war that is coming. Those who see a blood red moon are often plagued with bad luck for quite a while, but not often.'" Meira read from the computer.
"So I guess FanFiction has it's uses..."
"Yup."
"The death of a great one... what does that mean?"
"It could mean that the President is going to be plagued and will die..."
"... War?"
"War in Iraq."
"Bad luck?"
"I say don't hope for a red moon, go break a mirror."
"Meira!"
"Sorry..." Meira said sheepishly. "Well... at least we found out what a red moon means..."
"That we did."
"So what are we going to do now?"
All three of them looked at each other. "The Ouija Board!"
They raced toward the room where they had left the Ouija Board a mere hour ago...
***
"Okay, so what are we going to ask this thing?"
"What do you know about the Guardian's Seal?" Julia asked.
-SUN-
"Does that mean... it's good?"
-YES-
Kathy looked up. "And all this time... we were thinking that this thing was bad..."
"What about the Curse of wings?"
-B-A-D-L-U-C-K-
"Wait... The Curse of Wings has nothing to do with what's going on right now?"
-YES-
"Oh my god..."
Julia, Kathy, and Meira looked at each other. "This is weird..."
"Who is the... controller of the Guardian's Seal?"
-A-N-T-H-R-O-S-
"Anthros?"
-YES-
"What did they do to Brianna?"
-NO-
"They... didn't do anything to her?"
-YES-
"What is Lilith?"
-C-A-P-T-O-R-
"She... captured Brianna?"
-YES-
((a/n Yes, I know that a Ouija Board normally wouldn't give answers as straight as this one is giving, but hey. It's Halloween, and it's too difficult to confuse us anymore.))
"Is there any way to get her back?"
-OUIJA BOARD-
"Maybe?"
-YES-
"Guess it all depends, huh?"
-YES-
"Can... we talk to Anthros?"
Silence.
"Please?"
-YES-
The Ouija Board started to glow.
"What's going on?" Julia asked, frightened.
"I don't know!"
A figure emerged from the Ouija Board. A semi-transparent figure...
Dressed like a Native American, except with white wings... ((a/n Looks like Guardian Iatos [which I do not own] from Yu-Gi-Oh [Raphael's deck]. I'm so original, aren't I?))
"What... is... that?" Kathy asked, struggling for words.
"The Levian is in danger," the figure spoke.
"What?"
"The Levian..." The figure said. "Your friend..."
"Brianna?"
"Yes."
"Who are you?"
"My name is Anthros. I am the keeper of the Guardian's Seal."
"Oh..."
"One Levian is chosen every five hundred years... as a keeper of the Guardian's Seal... this time, your friend was chosen... She is in danger... she will be sacrificed to Eravile..."
"Era- what?"
"Eravile... the god of fiends..."
"What?"
"Save her..."
Anthros disappeared.
"Well, that was a fat load of help," Meira scowled.
"So, how do we save her?"
"Magic?"
***
"Miss Levian," a voice said. Brianna turned around. A man was standing in the doorway.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Pethules," the man bowed.
"You're... mortal," Brianna said, catching a glimpse of the man's face.
"Immortal," the man smiled. "I agreed to service in exchange for immortality."
<More like immorality...>
"Come," Pethules grinned.
"What?"
"It is time... for the Sacraficial Ceremony..."
"What? I still have an hour and a half left!"
"But... the ceremony begins now..." Pethules grinned. "And after all, you are the Guest of Honor."

Meira: *hits Yami* Kathy was in the Color Guard, you idiot.
Yami: Oh...
Meira: I know I was going to do review replies... but this is such a crappy chapter that I'll save that for the end.
Yami: Yup. It might be a while until her next update...
