Chapter 8: Jackson and the drugs

Sorry all of you guys. I promised for one more chapters and didn't even give it to you. I suddenly had a busy week midway of typing. I had to complete a project and study for the finals. I wont waste your time so here it is.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Somewhere in the Abyss)

In a large hallway surrounded with races from every part of the universe, a man sits on a throne at the very end of the hallway. Beside him stood many guards. One could see these guards were not ordinary guards as they  released a heavy aura around them. Suddenly from the far corner of the room, someone appears. This person was the ghoul that faced against Lucarius and Grayl. He approaches the man sitting on the Throne trembling.

The man stares at him for a sec before asking. "I presume you have the ring and the money with you." the ghoul just shivered in fright as the article was missing as the ghoul fled from the scene. The man gave a cold stare before sighing. "I gave you a specific order to bring back the money yet you bring me nothing." Before the ghoul can protest the man gets up from his throne and lifts his hands. Suddenly the ghoul starts choking and his eyes become bloodshot. The ghoul starts floating mid air and slowly approach towards the man.

"Don't you see I am a busy man who hates when things don't go according to plan?" The ghoul was gaping for air and cried out with a raspy voice. "It  wasn't my fault Lord Solomon. *cough *gasp I was chased by three little vermin. One was a little demi-cat who was a pyromancer, the other seemed to be a blood knight, and lastly there was a low human with them." The man suddenly released the tension and the ghoul suddenly dropped down. As the ghoul was gasping for air, suddenly a light flashed in front of the ghoul. Before he realized, he exploded into blood and dropped dead. From the shadows, one of the guards sheathe her swords.

The man didn't flinch as he sat back down on his throne. "Erilose I want you and your men to find these three people that the filth told about. Also while you leave please get rid of that filth. His presence will stink up this room and I want to avoid that." The guard that looked like a samurai with a long scar on his eyes and nose suddenly stood up and let out a sigh before he began to drag the body away from the room.

(Meanwhile at a random police station in the capital)

"So you are saying a ghoul was carrying this ring with these drugs in it?" said a police officer. officer looked normal except for a furry white rabbit ears with huge whiskers sprouting from his nose that made him look like he had a huge mustache. The police officer looked at the trios. 

The trios were currently being tied up to a chair in the police officer's office. Grayl grumbled, "How many times do I have to say officer Jackson. We were chasing after a ghoul who happen to carry all these drugs with him. We came here to report this to you so that you can be aware of this situation." Lucarius looked at the officer dumbfounded. The situation that he was in was a mood where he did not know whether he should laugh or cry.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(hour before the trios were tied)

=Inside the police department, it was the usual quite days. There were few trouble makers that officer Jackson had to deal with but nevertheless it was quite. As he was leaning on his chair with his legs on the desk, he reached down and grabbed three carrots and an apple. He loved this cozy life and decided to reward himself with a little snack. 

As he was about to take a bite, suddenly the door opened with a bang. "Officer Jackson I need to speak to you!" yelled Grayl as he barged into the room. Not expecting someone to barge in, officer Jackson sprung from his chair so high, he hit the ceiling with his head that caused him to yelp in pain. Then he came crashing down onto his desk, flinging everything off of his desk. From the wreckage, officer Jackson climbed out while groaning. "Grayl, why are you scaring me nearly half dead in the middle of day. What is so urgent that you decide to barge into my room like that?" Then officer Jackson found something splattered in front of him. In front of him lay his snacks but in pieces mixed with dust and random bits of pieces of his desk. Officer Jackson stood there motionless before screaming at the top of his voice. "NOOOOOOOOOO!"

(Back in the present)

Officer Jackson was staring daggers into Grayl's eyes. He couldn't stand of Grayl for destroying his leisure time. Grayl let out a deep sigh. "Look officer Jackson, I am deeply sorry for my brother who does not think thoroughly and I promise to buy you a new one so please can we move on discuss of what is more important here?" interrupted Mia from the dark situation. 

Officer Grayl gave one look at Grayl before approaching the trios and letting them loose. "So who is this new fellow? Never seen him before." said officer Jackson while examining Lucarius from head to toe. Mia looked surprised as she forgot to introduce Lucarius to Jackson. "Oh I forgot! Lucarius meet officer Jackson. officer Jackson, Lucarius." Mia said while giving them a bright smile. 

Officer Jackson gave a simple nod before spitting into his furry hands and showing his hands. "Pleasure to meet you boy." Lucarius stared at him weirdly and his face showed mixture of confusion, shock, and disgust. "Ummmm..." said Lucarius not knowing what to do. Grayl leaned in and whispered "Just do what he does. It is there way of greeting." Lucarius hesitated before doing the same. Jackson grabbed his hands and gave a strong shook. As soon as he let go, Lucarius quickly retrieved his hands and slyly brushed his hands on Grayl's back. 

"So onto the serious point. You three chased after a ghoul who had your money but found that he had a lesser inter-spatial ring with tons of shrine tears in it?" questioned officer Jackson. the sibling gave a quick nod. Officer Jackson quickly furrowed his brows as he pondered at this dread situation. 

Suddenly Lucarius interrupted this serious atmosphere. "Um what is that? The shrine tear thingy." Officer Jackson raised an eye brow at him. "You don't even know what a shrine tears is?" questioned Jackson. Lucarius shrugged his head and raised his arms. Mia quickly explained to Jackson about Lucarius and Jackson gave a surprised face when Mia explained how Lucarius was an acolyte of an elder god. "Oh dear sweet lord of carrots, an elder god. Never seen an acolyte of an elder god for many years. It is surely a miracle how an elder god chose an acolyte and not only that but a human." 

Jackson suddenly turned serious and replied. "A shrine tears is a drug spread throughout the dark corners of the Abyss. It is a drug that extends your life for thousands of years." Lucarius snorted "Well that looks like a miracle drug rather than a drug to me." said Lucarius. Jackson shook his head. "If it was that easy. After some times has past, maybe three hundred or so, your body will seem as if ti is burning. It is excruciating that makes anyone want to take their own lives. After three years later, your skins will start to form cracks before crumbling into dust. It is a drug that is very dangerous and is banned throughout the universe."

"Lucarius' eyes seemed to bulge out. He was not aware of how dangerous the drug was and began to sweat. "so what happens now?" Jackson wrinkled his brows. "I do not know little boy, I do not know."
