The Chronicles Of Kronos Volume III Chapter Eleven
‘The Shadow’ said “Remember when I talked about the Well Of Knowledge?”
“Yes, we remember that. You said ‘Fake’ Kronos had gotten knowledge.”
“It did. Also It mentioned Aladdin and the ‘genie’ while there.”
“Well, as some of you know, I was that ‘genie.’”
“It seems ‘Fake’ Kronos was upset that Aladdin freed the ‘genie.’”
“That is our carrot. The ‘genie.’ ‘Fake’ Kronos wants to control it.”
“I will have the oracle contact ‘Fake’ Kronos with news about it.”
“The oracle will say the ‘genie’ is back again.”
“’Fake’ Kronos will jump at that bait.”
“It will haul ass there really quick so It won’t be late.”
“That sounds reasonable” Kronos said.
“Once It is there, how do you trap the evil head?”
“I have this plan I will need help with.”
“That’s what we’re here for. We are not twits.”
“In this case, The Lumicates need to cast the die.”
“They have the ability to trap any guy.”
Anika said “Ahh, I think I know where this is headed.”
“You should. You were the one that got me embedded.”
“By that, I mean trapped in the lamp.”
“Yes. Then took you back to The Lumicates camp.”
“Would you go with me? We will return there again.”
“Of course I will. Just like old times again.”
Anika & ‘The Shadow’ held hands and vanished.
Anathea said “Watching that is still hard for me to manage.”
Anika & ‘The Shadow’ immediately appeared again.
But, they were at The Lumicate camp, within
the head Witch Doctors hut. The Medicine Man too.
He said “Hello, we have been expecting you.”
“I was hoping you knew we were coming.”
“We did. We also know why you were coming.”
“We have already built a trap to fit your needs.”
“Wow. I just can’t believe how, the future, you read.”
“For awhile, there was some problems”
“It is better now. Mostly, it allows them.”
“To see what will transpire, I mean.”
“Of course, we cannot see in the in between.”
“The lamp you were in wouldn’t let any magic in or out.”
“You were literally physically trapped, without a doubt.”
“That is true.” ‘The Shadow’ regretfully said.
He still had some bad feelings about it in his head.
“We need one similar to that for ‘Fake’ Kronos.”
“Except, we need to be able to use magic on ‘Fake’ Kronos.”
“But, any magic It uses to be trapped with It.”
“We figured that would be how you wanted it.”
‘You had a much different form than a man.”
“More like, a fog, or a shadow moving across the land.”
“Yes. That is why I call myself ‘The Shadow’”
“To learn to assume this form was a real battle.”
“But, that’s another story for another time.”
“Right now, ‘Fake’ Kronos is our problem sign.”
“Due to your form, you would fit into a lamp.”
“’Fake’ Kronos is bigger, so, needs a bigger lamp.”
“Basically, it is a large rectangular box.”
The Witch Doctor led them away to see the box.
“It reminds me of the Ark Of The Covenant.”
“What in the world is that?” Anika did vent.
“It is in the future in a different time line.”
“Not from yours, but from mine.”
It was a large metal box looking like bronze.
It was heavy. But, they could move it with their wands.
The same metal Aladdin’s lamp was made of.
It reflected the sunlight that was shining above.
The needed spells were woven into it when it was cast.
That way they would always last.
“When ‘Fake’ Kronos raises the lid, It will be sucked in.”
“Only you, ‘Shadow,’ can let It out.”
Yet, spells, any of you use on It will work, without a doubt.”
“Thank you all so much for all you have done.” Anika said.
“It is our pleasure to help.” The Witch Doctor said.
With that, Anika, ‘The Shadow’, and the box disappeared.
The Lumicates knew that it wasn’t weird.
Back with the other three, it was like they were hardly gone.
“Is that the trap!!?” they all said, before too long.
“Yes.” Anika & ‘The Shadow’ explained what happened.
“Now, we have everything we need to catch the weenie.”
“When It comes to capture the ‘genie.’”
Will their well laid plans come to pass?
Pass me the pheasant under glass.
Might as well enjoy a good meal.
While were waiting to see what is revealed.
