Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: Genu Recurvatum 3

"This father did not steal his wife's child but took him to the Doctor." He sighed as he looked down and shook his head.

"Ehhhhhhh!?" The villagers all exclaimed in shock.

Some scratched their heads in confusion while others faced each other and muttered among themselves.

The Village Chief looked back up and saw how the villagers were arguing and blaming each other for what happened, Then he pulled back both of his arms and slammed his hands against each other creating a powerful shock wave that shook the ground and made the leaves fall off the trees.

[Slam!]

They all looked at the Village Chief with fright in their eyes as they saw anger dwelling inside of him and his Mana flaring up, making the lesser powerful Demons have trouble breathing.

"Oi, listen up you fools, while you lot were here beating up Ms Sasha Husband, wrongly accusing him of stealing his own child. I got the explanation from Sasha herself, so quit whining and blaming one another, Sasha in her bad mental state couldn't find the right words." He said as he crossed his brows.

He sighs and looks down at Ethan and asks.

"Ethan, how long are you planning on kissing the dirt, you've got a wife waiting for you!"

"I, yes, I will go now." Ethan struggles to get up from the bruises he received but with sheer willpower, he manages to get up and limps towards his house.

The Village Chief looks at Ethan as he slowly limps towards his house while he has one arm covering his stomach.

Still watching Ethan before looking back at all of the villagers who have frowns upon their faces.

"You see that lads! That right there is a real gentleman!" He says as he points his finger towards Ethan with a proud smile on his face. "Now is someone going to give that man a shoulder to lean on or are you going to let him suffer?"

The villagers look at Ethan retreating back before all looking up at the Village Chief and bowing down and apologies at the same time.

"We are sorry Sir!"

The Village Chief blood boils as he clenches his fist before shouting.

"You fools! I'm not the one you should be apologizing to! It's Ethan that you dumb skulls beat up!" He yells as he walks towards villagers and cracks his knuckles at the same time his mana flares up even more.

The villagers all gulp at the same time before running away from the Village Chief whitelist apologizing as they run for their lives.

"ARGH! I THOUGHT I MADE IT CLEAR, I SHOULD NOT BE THE ONE YOU ARE APOLOGIZING TO!"

"Ahhhhhh! We're sorry, Village Chief!!!"

Ethan arriving at his house, leans against the door and takes a peek inside. Seeking dozens of women rushing around the place, all trying to give support and comfort to Sasha.

One of the ladies notices Ethan's poor condition at the front door and rushes to his aid, giving her shoulder for Ethan to support.

"Mr Ethan, glad you came, your wife Sasha is currently resting in her bedroom." She says as she looks towards her room.

"I see, is she okay?" Ethan looks at the young lady with a worried look.

The young lady nods at Ethan with a slight smile.

"I…." Before he could say anything he hears a quiet feminine voice coming from Sasha's room.

"Ethan, Is that you?"

Ethan smiles as he hears his wife's voice and rushes towards Sasha's room despite the bruises he received, he still rushes towards her voice.

"Huhu, if only my husband rushed in like that for me.' The lady silently pouts

Ethan's eyes lit up when he saw his wife on her bed, reaching out for her gentle hands.

Ethan creases his wife's hand gently.. 

"Is our son going to be alright?" She stares at Ethan's eyes with the hope that their son would be healthy and safe. Ethan smiles happily as he creases his wife's hand but his happy smile turns into a slight frown with tears flowing down as he looks at Sasha.

"I'm sorry, I don't know what will happen to our son, all we can do is wait for the Doctor." He replies as he looks down while crying with his palms covering his face.

Sasha saddened at his response but she still had hope for her son that he would come back to them alive and healthy.

While she spoke, her gentle hands rested on Ethan's cheek and she smiled at him.

"Don't lose hope so quickly, silly, I know our son will make it out alive."

Ethan continues to snob as he looks at Sasha and says.

"How do you know, love?" He looked at her while he closed his eyes and felt the warmth of his wife's gentle hand creasing his cheek.

"I know because I'm a mother, silly, every mother has this feeling of their child that they will come back safely and healthy." She closed her eyes and smiled whilst taking a deep breath at the same time.

Ethan's hope slowly came back to him and his tears stopped. He smiled happily as her words were brimming with love and confidence for their child.

He stood up and held her wife's hand while he closed his eyes before saying.

"You're right, as his father, how could I ever lose hope so easily like that. Let's go and be there with our son."

Sasha nodded happily as they held hands as they went to the Doctor house.

At the Doctors office.

"What is this strange black object!" He grunted as he slammed his fist at the wall making a dent. "There's nothing I can do, I don't know what to do, I don't even know the slightest idea that Sirus is even in here!" As he walks back and forth in his office, he hears several cracks inside of the black object.

[Crack!]

[Snap!]

[Crip!]

Sounds of bones moving and cracking were getting louder and louder by the second. The Doctor's body trembles and takes a step back whilst he falls on his back. He gulps and shivers in fright as the sounds of bones cracking were getting louder by the second inside of the black cocoon. The door opens and a short female demon with small curly horns and pink hair the length to her lower black and a short white skirt and also a black coat walks in.

She looks around the room and sees her dad against the wall trembling in fear whilst he stares at the black object on his table.

"Dad!" She yells whilst looking at her dad before looking at the black object on her dad's table, continuing the sounds of several bones cracking. 

"Dad! Dad, snap out of it what's happening!" She yells as she shakes her dad. The Doctor looks beside him and sees his daughter next to him. He ignores his daughter and stands up and searches around for something to break the black cocoon.

He picks up something hard and sturdy and looks at the black cocoon with a cold smile.

Her daughter stares at her father and the bat in his hands, she speaks with confusion as she furrows her brows. "Dad? What are you planning to do with that?" She asks

Her dad slowly looks towards her with a cold smile and says in a disturbing tone.

"I'm going to break it." He declares as he slowly walks towards the black cocoon, raising his hand to strike.

"DAD! WAIT!" She shouts in horror and tries to stop her dad but she was too late.

Her dad slams his hand down upon the black cocoon and.

[Bang!]

[ZzzzzZap!]

The Doctor gets launched against the wall making him unconscious from the heavy impact.

Her Daughter shocked at what transpired as her father gets launched back towards the wall before she looks back at the black object and sees no cracks in it but the table split in two. The black cocoon suddenly stops making the sounds of bones breaking and the whole room goes deathly quiet.

Two Demons rush in holding hands and seeing chaos and mess everywhere in the room and also seeing the Doctor unconscious on the floor with a bat object in his hand.

"What happened here!" Ethans demanded as he didn't know what could have happened in the short while he was gone. He looks at the black cocoon that Sirus could possibly be in.

The Doctor's daughter looks behind her and with a surprised look and asks.

"Who are you two?" She said as her body was quivering.

"It doesn't matter right now! What is happening here!" Sasha screams in confusion.

"I-I don't know." The daughter replies as she looks at the black cocoon in confusion. What is this thing?
