I pulled out a torch from the backpack I had brought along and entered into the dark gloomy cave that was on the topmost point of Mount Everest, Ama walked in my front, swaying her hips on purpose, I salivated and felt a budge in my trouser.
We advanced inside the cave which got darker every minuite and a slithering and hiss sound that echoed the room.
"Stay quiet and close your eyes, you wouldn't wanna look into the eyes of Darken except you wanna become a stone"
"I thought it's only Medusa who could turn people to stone"
"She's an upgraded version of Medusa"
Ama whispered silently, and I nodded, we advanced cautiously towards where a grim light blickered in the dark cave and we assumed that that was where Darken could be.
I walked with my eyes closed, The only person who made me know my path was Ama who held my arms protectively, I felt something dark moved behind me, I turned back abruptly in fear while I roamed the space with my flashlight blindly.
"Who..who is there?"
I asked stuttering while I could feel Ama conjure a green seering orb which radiated heat, the hiss became more louder like it was emanated from all around us for once.
"Mortal... How dare you intrude my privacy!?"
A deep growling voice hissed behind me, Ama clutched my hand tightly indicating that I should not turn.
"We didn't mean to, we came for answers!"
I replied panickingly, the voice laughed behind me and I could feel a cold giant rope grazing my legs, it wasn't a rope, it was a giant tail, a snake's tail.
"Hummmm, to get your answers, you need to look into my eyes... I want you to see me..."
Darken replied with a melodious and hypnotic voice that sent chills down my spine and it stirred up a heat of pleasure within me, her hairs that grazed my cheeks didn't make it easier, it made it worse that my dick was already waking up but I still shut my eyes closed.
"Wills, don't! Don't ever try to open your eyes..."
Ama whispered warningly, suddenly, Ama fell slump on the floor, the snake hovering above her.
"Don't listen to her Wills... Look at me, look into my beautiful eyes, see how beautiful they are... If you do that, the answers you seek would await you..."
Darken stated seductively as she ran her soft and tender finger along my face, I groaned in pleasure what she was doing to me was sending waves of pleasure to my system.
"Open your eyes.... Open it..."
Her unresisting voice spoke in my head and I found myself doing what she wanted me to do, I slowly opened my eyes even when my mind was screaming at me not to do it but I couldn't stop it...
.
.
.
I slowly opened it, opened my eyes, unable to restrict the melodious order that slowly tugged me, I opened my eyes widely in fright as I saw what her eyes were made of, they were glowing golden, there was a evil smirk on her face as I couldn't take my eyes away from her, I felt my body freezing up as they became stone, as much as I tried to move, I couldn't, my blood became dry while my veins showed and I gasped for breath.
"No one can counter my charms, I sense you are not just a ordinary man but no one can escape my trap!! "
Darken stated as I had almost become a statue, I glanced over Ama who was already unconscious, I can't just die in the hands of a snake woman, I can't just let Ama die like this, No, not ever! Geoffrey and the others death wouldn't be avenged...
I closed my eyes tightly as I saw my body become a statue, I opened my eyes and saw myself in an unknown realm, various Giants who looked like statues stood there, towering above me, but there was something I noticed, there was a string that was on them that was attached to me, One of the strings glowed and I looked over to the giant who had a flute in his hand like he was playing it, there was a sun which strangely mounted close to his head, he was the one who the string was attached to... I tapped on the string and I muttered a word,
Apollo!
I gasped subconsciously as I finally became a statue stone, my eyes suddenly glowed brightly that the statue began to melt, starting from my head, my glowing eyes which brightly shown countered the golden eyes of Darken that was still glowing, She had a surprised look as she saw a change in me.
My blood started flowing once again and my body radiated intense heat and my stone body dissolved completely, Darken moved back in fright.
"Impossible! Apollo on earth?"
Darken asked with fear but her eyes still glowed, not backing down, I smirked as I advanced towards her, increasing the heat my body radiated and she screamed in agony and despair as her glowing eyes emitted smokes...
"Please... Stop it... Stop!!! My eyes is burning!!!"
Darken pleaded as she I advanced towards her, she tilted her face away from me while her snake-hair started turning to dust, I took a breath in and the heat my body radiated reduced and cooled off.
She spluttered towards me and took a bow before me while I frowned at what she was doing.
"I am really sorry, I didn't realise who you were!"
Darken pleaded while I could only smirk in return, Ama who had already regained his consciousness strutted over to us.
"We need answers, that's why we are here..."
Ama chipped in and Darken shifted her gaze to Ama, she nudged and adjusted herself by standing on her tails.
"Okay, follow me"
Darken stated and we followed behind her as we manovoured the gloomy cave, she snapped her fingers and the walls blickered with light and that was when I saw the beauty of the cave, everywhere was filled with diamonds, golds and other expensive materials humans would kill themselves for, we entered a room and I was breathtaken with wonder, never expected a snake woman to be this rich.
She gestured for us to sit down and we all sat on a golden stool except ahe who only positioned herself comfortably on her tail, her snake-hair couldn't stop but hiss at us.
"What's the answers you seek?"
Darken asked and I glanced at Ama to reply but she only countered my look with hers...
" Uhmm, I want to know who I was and how a human like me Could have vast powers of the Olympian gods..."
I told her about my abilities and the woman couldn't help but have a look of awe from her face.
"To get the truth about how your existence came to be... Bring your hand"
Darken requested and I contemplated before giving her my hand, she pricked my thumb with a tiny needle and blood gushed out, she collected some small amount of blood from me before they healed up back.
She chanted some words and the blood boiled, I sensed her mood and her eyes dilated to green, she frowned and stopped her spells, she rested her gaze on me, behind the states, I sensed emotions...
"The only place to get the answers to your questions, you need to get the Jar of truth... "
She replied, I narrowed my brow and stared at Ama who also frowned her face.
"Where can I get the Jar of truth?"
I asked warringly and Darken who had the jar she collected my blood in dropped it on a golden box that was beside her.
"The Jar of truth can only be found in the deepest part of Vulcan Gea, the volcano that can only be found in Eastern part of Lithropon... "
She explained with dread, I smiled foolishly while Ama had a look of fear...
"It's gonna be easy, it's just to get the Jar of Truth and all is done and dusted... "
I replied while the grin on me only widened, Ama narrowed her face and shook her head.
" Dummy, Lithropon is a place unknown to human existence, It is a land in which the most fearsome beasts live in... It is a land of dragons... "
