Ghost-01's Property

[Ghost_Blades]

His holy mission given by The Shadows took five days. The first day, Ghost visited the territories of the Core and visited all their bases, but nothing. He went to the Corsairs' territories and nothing. There were only a few places to go now and Ghost was desperate because he searched for many days and got nothing.

Ghost landed on the planet Pygar to put fuel in his ship, but he decided to explore this planet right after the ship was full. Of course, before exploring the surface of the planet, Ghost was prepared. The seconds become minutes, minutes become hours and hours become days. After a day, he saw a structure far from his geographic position. He grabbed his telescope and it was a tower or perhaps the top of a structure buried. Hit by curiosity, Ghost ran toward this structure. At ten meters away, something could be felt. The atmosphere was strange and dark, but that kind of atmosphere was just familiar to Ghost.

Jaison Field entered the building and surprisingly, all the interior was well preserved. The floor, the walls and even the doors were kinda untouched by the years. It was as if someone was still there. Suspecting something strange, Ghost was on his guard and ready to fight if there was something hostile. He visited the rooms and for a second, he saw a shadow behind him. He looked behind and saw a human, but by the physic something was not right. Was it his imagination or real? It was a girl, but the skin was strange. It was grey and she had white eyes and white hair too. Her outfit was strange too. She wore something, but some part of her body was almost exposed. The girl came closer to Ghost who was ready to act, but something from her let his guard down. She was really close now. He could feel her breath on his armor. She whispered in his left ear. ‘’I was waiting for you, Ghost.’’ Her voice was kinda the same as the usual voice, but besides having many people who were talking at the same time, it was only one voice. ’’Who are you?’’ It was the only thing Ghost could say at the moment. The girl smiled at him as if she was amused. ’’Oh dear, you don’t have any idea? No… You know who I am. I am the one who composes The Shadows. Did you forget that The Shadows were three entities and not one?’’ She was right in one thing though. Ghost forgot this part. The girl led the way to a special room. On the plinth, there was a black book. ’’Yes, Ghost, it is the book that you needed to find. All the story is in it.’’ The unknown girl came closer to him once more and gave a kiss on his forehead. She smiled and vanished in front of Ghost’s eyes. There was no doubt anymore. It was his imagination, but how to explain the touches of that girl? Perhaps was he tired? In any case, he returned to his ship after a long time of walking.

After a long flight within Sirius, Ghost finally reached Manhattan. He landed and went to his house. Before reading the book, he looked at the couverture page and the title was written: The story of three sisters. He opened the book and started reading.

The story of three sisters

It is the story of three sisters who lived all together. They were alone and had no parents to take care of them, but they were able to survive just by staying together. Their ages were the same for the three and they were identical. Back then, all of them had blue eyes and blond hair. Also, they did some strange stuff in the forest. Rumors were saying they were singing in a strange dialect and did some sacrifices too. Humans or animals, that's what we heard back then. Living in the forest where they were doing their strange ceremonies, the girls lived like the autochtones from Earth when there were the big explorations and the finding of the new world by europeans.

One day, within their forest, a young man lost his path and finished his road there. The animals and the plants were acting strange according to the sisters. Knowing the forest like their own body, it took no time to find the man. Over the years, their hair turned in white and their skins changed to grey because of dust and all the things we could find in the forest. One of the sisters showed up to the unknown man. She studied him as if he was something new. The man was not sure about this and to give an idea, he was much older than the girl. Perhaps twenty years in difference that’s what he thought. One by one, the other girls came out to join their sister and did the same thing. They touched the body of the man here and there. ‘’Excuse me?’’ Said the man, but the girls were not interrupted. Suddenly, after some long minutes touching the body, two of the sisters forced him to be on his knees and totally surprised and helpless, he could not resist their strengths. The one who was in front of him smiled and put her hands on the man’s cheeks. The poor guy was a bit afraid about the situation. If only he did not have fallen in this forest and of course, he had a little pleasure to look at those girls who were wearing less clothes than the other women. Then, the girl who held the head of the man did a sign to her sisters to bring him to their camp.

The sisters brought the man to their place and there, it was a real mess. Bones and skulls were lying on the ground and a strange symbol was drawn with blood of humans and animals. Something was telling the man there was a possible danger for his life, but the more time passed with those girls, the less he was afraid. One of the three sisters came next to him and unlike the others, she seemed more ‘’social’’. The man looked at the girl. ‘’What will you do to me?’’ The man asked, a bit confused by the situation. Only to make him feel better, the girl grabbed his hand. Her move was pure kindness. ‘’We… make… you… ours…’’ She smiled at him and kissed his cheek. Then, she stood up and made a sign at the man to follow her. The girl entered the shelter and the guy did the same. ‘’Why…’’ Said the man before he was interrupted by the girl’s actions. She was removing what covered her…

Meanwhile, the other girls were preparing a strange breuvage. The drink in question was for the guest and this drink will brainwash him. Made of leaves mixed with blood, the two sisters sang a strange song in a strange dialecte. According to their thoughts, the strange song was supposed to get power from the dark and shadows. After some hours, both went to the shelter where the man and their sister were. The new incommers went next to the man who was lying on the bed made of straw at each extremity. Their sister who spent the time with the guy was on him doing a strange dance. Like her, the man lost what he was wearing. Once finished, the sister took the breuvage and gently forced the man to drink. Under her charms, the man drank and then, he made a strange face because of the uggly taste. It took one second before he stopped and totally fell unconscious. The girl who was on the man put her hands on his head and said strange words like if she was using magic. The words in question meant this: O dark night! O dark night! Give a second chance to this lost soul who entered our territory. O dark night! O dark night! She did that for long minutes and after she was done, the body of the man began to move. The man opened his eyes. ‘’Hey there.’’ Said the girl who was on him. ‘’Do you know who are you?’’ The man did a sign that meant no he did not know who he was. Before that strange ceremony, the guy could barely understand the girl, but now, he could really well. The girl lied to him. ‘’Your name is Jacob Field and you will say this to others like you: ‘’I am Ghost’’. Understood?’’ The man said yes. Before letting him go, the girl said. ‘’My sisters and I are your goddesses.’’ She pointed to one of her sisters who was more of a warrior. ‘’She will be considered and named The Warrior.’’ She pointed to the other one. ‘’She will be The Sage and I, I will be considered The Temptation. All of us will form The Shadows and you will always obey.’’ All of this will be the beginning of a big enterprise….

Ghost looked at the other pages and nothing was written. ’’What’s the meaning of this?’’ He clearly saw empty pages and now he had a flashback of his journey on Pygar. ’’That girl… was The Temptation? That’s explain her behaviour, but why could I feel her breath?’’ His question will be not answered for now.
