Chapter 7 It begins With You

"Am getting rid of that baby and his mother!" Joel yelled out leaving the hut angrily.
"And if you don't listen to me now you will make a very big mistake that you can never fix again" The Wizard said as Joey halts and stood still for a while before turning back to face the Wizard.
"Do you have any better solution how I can end this mess?" Joey asked as he approaches the Wizard gently.
"I would highly recommend that you should submit to the people you have wronged, and train Castor to be a very good warrior who fight for good and not evil"
"His legacy we spread all over the world and there is no place any man will talk about him without talking about the man honourable and dreaded man that brought him to life," the Wizard said as Joey continues looking at him and the Wizard looks directly to his face.
"Joey it is still your legacy bringing in the most powerful warrior" the Wizard suggested.
While Joey gives out a deadly smile as he steps closer the Wizard "No... I want my legacy to be my legacy"
"Am not interested in obtaining it through someone else, not even my own son" Joey said.
"Joey the ones you have created we will still reign over people's mouth, they will sing your praises for ever if you return their belongings" The Wizard responded.
"Forever? or a limited short of time when my own son will come to claim all the praises" Joey said and so Young decided to interject.
Because he can't just watch them keep talking without saying anything.
"And who doesn't pray that his children should be better than him? Joey..." Young was still saying when Joey interrupted him with a louder voice.
"I don't pray for such, I have already prayed for my legacy to be remembered" Joey yelled at Young who goes silent immediately.
"For bad?" The Wizard asked.
"And for good!" Joel answered as he stares at the Wizard and Young vibrating in anger. "I want it to be remembered more than anyone else legacy" Joey added.
While the Wizard waves his head "Joey just because of what happened to you in the past"
"Is that why you allowed your dark side to take over you?" The Wizard asked.
"And is that not enough to make me listen to my dark side? and besides my dark side was what kept me alive till this day" Joey said as the Wizard waves his head.
"You have listened just too much to your dark side dear"
"And if you continue like this, you will become even more ruthless than this" the Wizard said.
"Exactly what I want! besides the baby wasn't mine but a useless thing the so called gods has sent to kill me" Joey replied as The Wizard stares at him.
And after making that statement he angrily walk out of the Wizard's present and matched down the door of the hut angrily.
While Young stares at the Wizard for a while and attempted to leave but the Wizard stopped him.
"I need to have some words with you, some words that you have to share with Castor's mother" The Wizard said while Joey stares at him in surprise.
"And how did you know his name already? I don't remember any of us telling you the baby's name, so how come?" Young asked as he steps closer to the Wizard.
"Castor's existence is already known by all the true witchers, that night he arrived on earth ranged a very loud bell in our ear"
"Am happy to witness the arrival of the almighty Castor, and I hope to meet him in person one day, but you must be quick, Joey is heading home to kill them" The Wizard said as Young nods.
And attempted to leave immediately but was stopped again by the Wizard.
"If you go like that you cannot still save them because you can't even be able to stand Joey" The Wizard's voice sounded as Young turned back.
"Can you?" The Wizard asked. "We should be more concentrated on saving Castor and his mother now" Young said as the Wizard nods.
"Of course, the prophecy of Castor's survival starts with you, but I have a message that I would want you to convey to his mother about Castor's future"
"He has 7 seven great course of destiny put on him to protect, and that is the real prophecy about him" The Wizard said as Young takes a deep breathe.
"And what are these destinies and how are they going to be found?" Young asked.
"These courses are already on their way to earth, they are coming as human just like Castor has arrived"
"Their mother will give birth to them in bondage and it's the duty of Castor to find and save them and bring them home for a better protection in a good condition"
"They are the newest witchers of earth after we are gone, they are 7 girls, no more wizard among, so I am the last Man standing" the Wizard said as Young nods his head.
"And his powers lies within his hair, his hair must not be cut for any reason" the Wizard said as Young steps closer.
"The baby has no single hair on his head, his head is just a plane skin, he must be bald?" Young asked as the Wizard waves his head.
"It will take longer for the hair to grow and that's exactly the longer time his frustration is going to take, and once the hair raises, he will become unstoppable" The Wizard said as Young folds his hand.
"I make sure that I protect him till he is ready to fight" Young said as the Wizard smirks.
"You think so...? but mind you that all the message I have delivered to you, you must surely tell Melissa about them, now go" The Wizard ordered as Young began walking away.
"While going!" The Wizard said making Young to halt from moving on and listened to what he has to say.
"Take another your right hand side instead of the usual left and you will arrive at your town faster than Joey, take the child and the mother to Lord Mystic" The Wizard said as Young stares at him in surprise.
Because it's almost like the Wizard is trying to trick him because the Lord Mystic the Wizard just mentioned is not only his enemy.
But equally Joey's toughest enemy and had once attempted to kill Melissa before which is the main reason while he has just one eye today.
So Lord Mystic wouldn't hesitate killing Melissa and baby Castor at first sight and so Young wanted to say something but was cut shut by the Wizard.
"Trust me, that is the only place that will secure her and the baby for a while" the Wizard said as Young stares at him for a while.
"But..." Young wanted to say something but was interrupted again as it appears that the wizard already knows all that he wants to say even before he thinks of it.
"I know it's a long journey but you must do your best to get them to that place, the destiny of Castor relies in your hand now, it's only you who can determine to make it possible" The Wizard and Young nods and left the hut.
When he approached his horse he jumped on top of it and began heading home using the right hand side just like as he was ordered by the Wizard.
Even though he doesn't even know his way home from that place but he kept going straight forward with speed.

KINGDOM OF HELITH.
So Melissa was still at the seventh floor with her little baby boy, Castor, kindly waiting for his husband to come back.
So she was actually watching out of the window and patiently waiting and she knows that she is going to have a nice time with Joey of course, it's actually bed time when he left her and she can't wait for him to come back so she can feel the touch again.
She was there when she saw how fast Young was arriving alone without Joey behind him or supposed to be in front of him, she was frightened and she was staring at Young somehow knowing so well that something must be wrong.
Anytime things show up like this, it must be for incoming war which Joey will always fight to protect his warriors.
So she hopes that Joey is still coming, maybe he was holding back the armies till Young is safe.
She watched how fast the gate was opened for Young and immediately Young ran she watched him as he didn't talk to anybody but jump out of his horse running inside the building looking so hurried.
He couldn't even talk to his fellow well respected warrior, Dari, who was actually talking to him but Young ignored him.
Melissa watched Young till he stepped out of her sight and so she looks forward outside the gate once again and sighted long, checking to see if Joey is coming.
But still yet there was no sign of him, and it hasn't been long and a knock sounded on her door.
"Yes who is there?" She said as she went to open the door and it was Young.
"Young, it's you?" Melissa said as Young nods.
"Where is Castor, come on we have to leave this place as soon as possible" Young said grabbing her hand as she forced her hand out of his grip.
"Why?" Melissa asked. "Come on I don't have time to explain now, just come with me and I will explain as soon as we get out of this place!" Young promised.
"Am not going anywhere with you till you tell me why, and where is my husband?" Melissa asked as she looks down from the seventh floor and finally saw Joey arriving outside the gate.
"Oh there he is" Melissa said happily with smiles. "Oh shit" Young said as he is aware that he has failed already.
Because it is obviously impossible for him to take her out of this palace right now with the presence of Joey.
"You could have listened to me! he will kill you" Young said.
"What...? you are out of your senses and I will let him know about this!" Melissa yelled at him.
"I swear he will kill you" Young replied.
