Blessed by Night

Chapter 151 It’s Over? Foreal?

"Easy now! Be careful of their heads." "This is crazy... did they really clear the boss by themselves after we got knocked out??" "That would be the logical conclusion but... they don't have anything on them but dirt and a couple of scratches." The members of Immortal Moon were absolutely stunned by the current state of three of their members. After they woke up from their impromptu nap, they found a destroyed battlefield awaiting them along with a now empty gate. Confused about what could have put them all to sleep so easily, they went searching for answers, yet only found only more questions. Corpses and dungeon drops were literally everywhere, and all of these valuable materials seemed to be completely uncared for. In a stretch of land almost two miles away, the group found three members of immortal moon sleeping nonchalantly on the ground, just as they had been before. The only difference being that this time there seemed to be nothing that could be done to wake the three of them. With minimal difficulty, the three of them were picked up by their fellow guild members and carried out like backpacks. "This is weird... Mal's body feels really light." Opal had taken the responsibility of carrying her friend on her back, but she couldn't help but notice how it was significantly less difficult than it should have been. "Well you do have super strength after all."

"Yea but... this doesn't feel like me though."

At well over six feet tall and with a body that was packed with lean and explosive muscles, Malachi should have weighed at least two hundred pounds. As of now he just felt...somewhat weightless. The girls finally crossed the gate threshold and entered back into their world. As of right now, it was around 9:27 pm and the sky was alight with stars. "Alright, let's get them back to the pla-"

*Gasp.*

No more than a few seconds after passing through the gate, Bianca and Luna woke up and sucked in a needed breath of air.

And a few moments later, Malachi's eyes flashed open as well. "Aww! They even wake up together, that's cute!"

"I think it might be a little creepy actually."

"Yea well, that is why you're single."

Malachi groggily looked around and realized that he was back in the outside world. However this.. didn't make any sense. "What the hell is going on...? Why are we back outside and why is Opal giving me a piggyback ride??"

"Cause the gate is cleared and I'm the only one who was going to carry you without groping you?"

Malachi had never been drunk before, but he rubbed his head like he was having the worst hangover of his life. On his right side, Luna was on Nina's back and on his left Bianca was with another guild member. They didn't seem to be as confused as he was, but they looked just as tired. "Ah, you three are awake!"

Moving through the closely knitted group was the leader of the world's number one guild; Enzo. He wasn't sure whether or not he should make a beeline for Luna or Malachi first but eventually he decided to address the both of them. "What happened?? What were you doing while we were all passed out?? And what even happened to us in the first place??"

He usually wasn't one to pry, but he needed answers. Over sixty men and women had fainted at the same time in the same place without even knowing what put them there. To make things even more unbelievable, three had managed to somehow stay awake, AND defeat the remaining forces inside of the gate. Things like that don't just happen. No matter how tenacious or talented one might be. Malachi rubbed his head as he climbed down from Opal's back; desperately trying to recall the events that led up to his impromptu nap. It felt like the more he tried to remember, the greater a headache that he gave himself. But there was one thing that he remembered that was more important than any of that nonsense right now. "Anna!"

Malachi's eyes went wide as he quickly located all of his guild members nearby. "Girls, we're leaving now!"

He snapped his fingers and all twenty five members of immortal moon sank into the shadows around them. Enzo stared gobsmacked at the place where Malachi and his guild members were standing a mere moment ago. Usually he was quite good at talking, but for some reason he felt like he was never able to get a word in edgewise when it came to that young man. He didn't typically like taking trips to America but... he felt that it may have been necessary this time around. -

Malachi sent the girls from the guild to their individual homes while he, Bianca, and Luna honed in on Anna's location. He was initially quite surprised when he realized where she was, and believed that he may have ben mistaken. But as he appeared in his apartment, he found her, Sei, Aubrey, Serana, Joanne, and Aisha sitting on the couch, happily eating chicken wings and watching a big fight on tv. "You're back!"

"Are you alright??"

Sei and Anna immediately wiped their faces of lingering wing sauce and ran up to hug him, oblivious of his stunned look. He kissed them both softly before he inevitably cupped Anna's face into his hands and started checking her face for wounds. But no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't find anything. Her face was just as gorgeous and flawless as it always was. "But I was so sure, I..."

Anna reveled in the feeling of Malachi's touch while inwardly worried about how he would break the news of what happened earlier today. "About that... promise me that you won't go running off and trying to kill anybody."

"..."

"..."

"...I promise that I won't run."

"BABE!"

"I got it, I got it... I promise, love, now tell me what happened."

Anna took a deep breath as she ave Malachi a complete rundown of everything that had happened earlier in the day. She told them about the destruction of the world's top five guilds, as well as how they got attacked for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Sei was rather proud of herself, so she told Mal about how she kept the bad guys apprehended with her powers until the authorities arrived to transport them to Tartarus. When the entire story was over with, Anna said nothing and she waited for Mal's reaction. She and all of his other girlfriends could feel his emotions go up and down like a turbulent roller coaster before he even said anything. "I'm... just glad you're good. Nothing else really matters to me."

He pulled her in for a tight embrace that seemed like he was trying to absorb her flesh into his. No matter how hard he tried, he didn't believe he would ever forget the terror and panic that ran through his being when he thought he may have lost another person in his life. For a moment, he actually regretted asking his mother for her help getting the girls blessed. After all, if they didn't have powers then they also would never have been in danger today. But now that he was feeling significantly more clearheaded, he was glad that they had them. They were proving everyday that they were strong and capable, and that they could take care of themselves without him running home to save them. He had to put more trust in them... especially since they were all he had. "The guild's really been destroyed..."

Malachi looked back at Luna who was scrolling through news updates on her phone with a shocked face. He couldn't imagine how hurt and taken aback she must have been, especially since she literally worked her fingers to the bone to get the place afloat. Releasing Anna, he immediately went to Luna's side and took her hand in his.

"Mei... I'm sorry."

She smiled sheepishly at his gesture before tucking her phone away, realizing they had more pressing matters at the moment. "Ah well, it's just a building and they can always be rebuilt. But for now, can you come to the bedroom with us? There's something we need to talk to you about."

Malachi wasn't expecting for Luna to get over the destruction of her building so quickly, and nodded absentmindedly as she pulled him by the hand to the bedroom. "You guys aren't gonna speak to the rest of us?! Just have a lovey lovey reunion and go fuck?!" Serana screamed. "We're not having sex, Serana." Luna reassured. "We just need to talk with him about something private and we'll be back in a moment."

None of the other girls looked like they believed that, and they watched the backs of all five of them slip into the bedroom and close the door. "I give it five minutes before we start hearing moans." Aisha said annoyedly. "I dunno, Luna seemed pretty pent up so it might be three?" guessed Aubrey. "If I hear my mom so much as giggle I am going to stick my finger down my throat and throw up in front of their door."

Joanne was the only one looking around at all three girls like they were saying something absurd. "You girls are joking, right? They wouldn't do something like that with all of us here."

"...."

"..."

"..."

"...Would they...?"

The girls decided to exercise their fifth amendment right and not say anything about just how much they had heard living in this apartment. "Pass the ranch."

"Bleu cheese is superior, but sure."

"You're such an anarchist."

As Joanne watched the girls continue eating wings like it was no big deal, she kept looking at the room down the hall out of the corner of her eye. She silently prayed that she would not hear any strange noises coming from that room, lest she never be able to look her daughter in the face ever again.
