Chapter 243 - Cosmo Help!

After Claudia finshed making their order she came back with a small tray of pastries and Lilith smiled as she sat down while smiling. 

'There, these are amazing pastries, now start eating" Claudia said and Lilith laughed. 

"You really love sweets don't you?" Lilith asked. 

'Yeah I have a sweet mouth" she responded and Lilith sighed. 

'Yeah so do i" Lilith said as she took a cupcake and began eating. 

"The chocolate cupcake is really good," Lilith said and Claudia smiled. 

"I finally got her distracted and I just hope she tries to relax a little I am sure Cosmo will be back soon but she won't stop worrying," Claudia said to herself with a sigh. 

"Thank you, Claudia," Lilith said and the girl looked at her and smiled. 

"Why are you thanking me?" Claudia asked and Lilith smiled. 

'For getting my mind off of things, I know what you are doing and I really appreciate it, that you have to know" she said and Claudia smiled. 

"You are most welcome" she replied as Lilith finished eating her cake then took another piece of chocolate cake and Claudia laughed. 

'Someone who love chocolate cakes more than me wow, this is nice" Claudia said and Lilith stretched over and patted the girl on the head and Claudia's eyes widened as her cheeks got pink and she held onto Lilith's hand and Lilith's eyes widened as she looked at the girl then sighed. 

'Sorry" Lilith said as she moved her hand away from the girl and Claudia smiled. 

'You don't have to apologize for anything Lilith, people have their own feelings doesn't mean they can control it, you are not to be blamed, relax" she replied and Lilith sighed. 

'Maybe I am not, either way, I have no intention of hurting anyone who likes me, I can only love one person" she said and Claudia frowned. 

"I really do get it, I don't want to get it but I do and I am sorry too I didn't mean for things to get awkward at all," she said and Lilith smiled. 

"Well no more cakes, I am done, that's enough sweet for now," Lilith said and Claudia laughed. 

'Same here" Claudia said as they got up and Lilith heard the screams of a child and she took out her wings then flew up in the air and saw a child ruining in the woods just before entering the city screaming and something was after her. 

"Claudia I will be right back," she said as she flew off and Claudia went after her. 

'Kid" she said as she arrived and grabbed the child then flew up high and whatever was following the child stopped and the little girl hugged Lilith and Lilith sighed as she took the child back to the city and placed her down. 

'Go to your parents" Lilith said and the child ran off. 

"Something is not right here," she said and Lilith's body glowed. 

"Rex" she screamed and he and the others heard her at the castle and he rushed out into the balcony and saw her standing with Claudia in the city with her body glowing. 

'Damn, guys come on" he said and they rushed out of the castle heading to Lilith. 

"Claudia stay here, I will be back" she said. 

'But Lilith..." Claudia said and Lilith smiled then patted her on the shoulder and the girl smiled. 

'I will be fine" she said then flew off and went into the woods where she picked up the little girl and her body stopped glowing. 

'What's going on?" Rex asked. 

"Someone or some things were after a child in the woods before entering the city, Lilith helped her but went back to see what it was" Claudia responded and Rex sighed. 

"I should go too," Rex said. 

'No... not yet, I sense they are dark" Val said and Rex said as he flew up in the air looking at Lilith standing in the woods and he sighed. 

'Cosmo where the hell are you?" Rex asked with a sigh. 

"I know you are out there, I can sense you," she said as her eyes glowed and someone attacked her from behind and she couldn't see what it was. 

'Damn it, fast.." she said as she got up from the ground and brushed the dust off of her skin and closed her eyes as she heard a branch break and it was going to attack her from the side but she grabbed it by the arm then kicked it into a tree and opened her eyes only to see it was a guy dressed in black. 

'You are not human, you are just a figure made of magic, dark magic" she said as her eyes trembled and the thing released a screeching sound and she covered her ear as she fell to the ground screaming and Rex gasped as he rushed to Lilith and she saw him then sighed as she showed him not to get any closer and he gasped. 

"Lilith, what is that thing?" he asked and Val's eyes widened. 

'Lilith get away from the thing now" Val screamed and her eyes widened as she tried to fly away and it grabbed her by the wing and hit her into a tree and she screamed as her ear kept on hurting and she felt as if it was about to explode. 

'Is it done?" the king asked as a guy walked into his throne room. 

'It has made contact with the princess though she is in great pain" the person dressed in black said and the king laughed. 

'It's fine if that thing can bring her to us then no more pain" he said and the guy left and Val sighed. 

"The king sent that here, it was only to find a certain person or persons, I am not sure, I can sense his magic, I know it very well, Lilith won't be able to use her magic, she is in serious trouble there," Val said as Lilith's ear started bleeding and she closed her eyes as she got up and looked at the thing before her and smiled as her eyes glowed and she removed her hand from her ear and Rex gasped. 

'Cosmo" Rex called out and he folded his cuffs as he closed his eyes. 

'I can't leave her there" Rex said and Val grabbed onto his arm.

'You won't be able to help her" Val said and Claudia sighed as her eyes glowed and she flew up in the air and the others looked at her as her eyes glowed. 

'Claudia don't" Rex said and she folded her cuffs as the thing moved around Lilith really fast and she smiled then tried punching it but her hand went right through it instead and her eyes widened. 

'What is that thing? how can she kill something she can't touch?" Claudia asked and Rex sighed. 

'Where the hell is Cosmo?" Claudia shouted as Lilith seemed when the thing grabbed onto her head and she saw the flashbacks of her mother's death and her body trembled as it started glowing as her eyes turned black and Rex gasped. 

'Lilith" Rex called out as she stood up and looked at the thing as her body trembled and she started seeing double due to the pain caused by the screeching. 

"I am not going back to him not now or ever," she said to herself as tears came to her eyes. 

'Cosmo can help her, she is the red dragon, she will be able to touch the thing, where is she?" Claudia asked and her eyes glowed purple and Lilith screamed as she fell in her knees and the earth rumbled. 

'Her phoenix, this is bad" Rex said to himself as Lilith looked at him and smiled. 

'It's no use, my magic... I can't fight it" she said as she saw the king's reflection in the thing and she remembered every time he hit her as she fell unconscious to the ground and the screeching stopped as she floated in the air and Rex gasped as Claudia rushed to her and her body unleashed a purple energy into the sky as she grabbed onto Lilith and formed a protection barrier over Lilith. 

'Claudia" Rex called out and the girl sighed then looked at Lilith. 

"Lilith" she called out and the girl opened her eyes looking at Claudia and she smiled. 

'You will be fine" Claudia said and Lilith's eyes widened. 

'That... it will kill you... get out of here..." Lilith said and Claudia smiled. 

"I will just get it distracted so one of them can take you from here, I will be fine" she replied and the thing looked at Lilith and not Claudia and as Claudia tried to attack it, the thing just moved aside and hit the barrier that was protecting Lilith. 

"It's too fast for Claudia," Val said and Rex sighed as the thing grabbed Claudia by her hair and she screamed as she heard the screeching sound and she moved disappeared then rapped before Lilith as she looked at the thing. 

'Claudia... go" Lilith said as she forced herself to stand up and the barrier broke as she got up and Claudia looked at her as the thing pulled Lilith towards her and Claudia grabbed onto her as her body glowed and Lilith closed her eyes as her body glowed pink and she sighed. 

"I never called you before but I don't want to go back, Cosmo please help," she said and Cosmo's eyes widened as she was flying when she heard Lilith's scream.
