That day was the best day in Kona's entire life , he couldn't sleep the whole night ,he still felt her tender strawberry pink lips .In the morning even Alex who was the last to notice anything, Andrew teased him the wine was concentrate in his blood in that unlike us he was seventy percent wine .
That day the dream or should I say the vision came with heavenly wrath , he felt it's rage that was evident in the change in the aura of it's power that had become sinister , the sword cried to him as if in lament ,"why have you forsaken me master am I not good enough for you !". He awoke from the dream trembling and drooping in sweat in the temple , next to Zeus statue .
He hastily moved to his quarters in the Apollo village but when he arrived sleep became a thing of the past and he had to stay awake all night since his conciousness denied him to . In the morning he was like a zombie,his movement was sloppy and vague even his thinking was slow that day .
"Morning Kona how are you today ?Did you sleep well ?"Cleo was first to ask ."Am fine no need to worry ."that was obviously a lie he was feeling deaths stench ."Man you are a bad lier did you look yourself in a mirror before get out of your room you're a walking corpse ,"Claire was quick to point out .
"Don't be too hursh on my lad , morning man ,you looking outer shape today didn't sleep well ,"It was Alex who had just come into class .
After the passing of daily roster everyone went for the combat training for the annual heroes tournaments .At the training grounds Kona still felt out of shape,he felt drained as if something was sucking his essence,he left the training and went to see the nurse ,"Excuse me mam , I'm not feeling well ,"he went on to explain the problem leaving out the dream his been having,the nurse who was a legendary healer was left in oww she had delt with many things like curses and poisons but Kona's problem was out of the ordinary since all her check ups showed no results ,she could not categories his problem whether it was a curse , poisons or infection,she went through all her notes that were as old as history but found nothing and the more the day passed the more Kona felt his body and soul being sucked dry .
The situation seemed to worsen by supper time he looked like he had been stricken by a pandemic, Cleo who had left training to see him when she noticed his absence was by his side all day and even at night she stayed next to him unable to sleep .That night the dream came back as usual and this time it came with pain that made Kona wish for death and unlike the other times he lost control of the dream and was unable to awaken until Cleo was struggling with him slapped him to reality.
Cleo that night was unable to sleep she was too worried that the fates might sneak up on her and cut the thread on Kona if she dozed of .Just as she was looking at this mortal who had manage to steal her heart that had barricade itself within her ribs for centuries with unbreakable volts that had rigid locks ,but this young soul had managed to breakthrough and stolen her fragile heart.As she thought of this a beam of red light cought her eye when she regained herself she saw Kona glowing with a celestial red in his eyes ,he stood up from the bed as if he was never weak a minute ago and begun moving towards the exite of the infirmary,Cleo tried to call to him but he didn't twitch even the slightest and that reassure Cleo that something else was in control,she tried stopping him but to no avail even her immortal strength was not enough, he moved on till he was at the temple door that's when Cleo slapped him and his eyes stopped glowing he regained control then he looked around saw Cleo ,he called out to her but just as he was about to move towards her he felt dizzy and his feet gave in but Cleo reacted swiftly and cought him .
He looked to her then with the remaining energy he said slowly,"Thank you ,"and with that he lost conciousness.
