Mind Blocking

Dante.

I climbed up to the door and I tried to open the door, but it refused to open.

What? I tried to open the door again, but it was locked.

"It's locked. It's never locked," I said, hissing in annoyance and facing Landon.

"Is there a reason they might be locking us out??" Landon asked and I sighed, affirming with a nod.

"I might have threatened their source of power when I wanted their help to proof Natasha's innocence at Gemini," I replied and he muttered, "Hmn. Hmn" as if he was already used to seeing that I have enemies everywhere.

"But it was just a threat and this is damn important!" I yelled and I kicked the door, but it didn't move a bit.

I kicked it again, but nothing happens and I sighed in frustration.

"Let me try," Landon said and I moved aside. He placed his hand on the doorknob and slowly turned it. The door clicked open and he smiled, opening the door.

"Oh, so those bastards specially blocked me."

I walked into the building after him and the door closed by itself. I looked around the familiar dark an intersecting corridors with walls everywhere. It was amusing to know that most of these are illusions. For all I know, we could very much be in a house without separation walls. It could be one very large room.

"Woah, this house is bitchin" Landon exclaimed quietly.

What?? I faced him, staring at him in a cringed out kinda way.

"This house is bitchin," he repeated quietly like I was supposed to know something.

"Like in The Flash, Barry and Cisco when-" he stopped as he realized I didn't have any clue about what he was saying.

"You don't....you have no idea about it." He sighed, "let's just go."

"Yeah, let's go." I nodded in support and walked past him. I stopped again as I realized that no voice called out to us.

That's strange, a voice is supposed to call out to us. One of the Petrova Sisters is supposed to call out to attend to our request.

"Do you hear any voice??" I asked and Landon shook his head.

"We are supposed to, we won't find them without the direction of the voice," I stated and rested my palms on my waist, looking around.

"Where the heck are you?! You Motherfuckers!" I yelled loudly and my voice resounded around the building.

"I'm not here to cause you trouble, I just need your damn help so quit the hide and seek!" I shouted, turning around.

"It's very urgent, we'll just get what we want and get the hell out of your face!"

I sighed, breathing heavily and I shoved my fingers into my hair in frustration.

"A door," Landon said and I looked up at him. What the fuck is he talking about.

"That door wasn't there before," he said, pointing, and I checked to see a door up ahead. Yes, there was no door here before, maybe those motherfuckers listened to me afterall.

I quickly walked to the door and looked at it for a while before grabbing the doorknob and pushing it open.

It lead into a dark room and the three Petrova Sisters were sitting at the far end of the room.

Well, won't you look at that. We have an audience with the three Petrova sisters at the same time.

"What do you want?" They asked at the same time and I smiled. I pulled a stool back and sat on it with a smug smile on my face.

"Simple. There's a pest and we need your help to crush it," I replied.

Landon pulled back a stool immediately and sat on it, shaking his head.

"No, he got it all wrong. We need your help to restore someone who is under negative influence," Landon stated quickly and I rolled my eyes.

I would be looking for a way to kill Rhazien instead if it wasn't for Landon. Why did he have to get close to Viktor. This would have been so much easier for me.

Would it though? I subconsciously asked myself. I've known Viktor for so many years.

But only officially, we were never close, I told myself.

"Explain." The Petrova sisters projected their words into our heads.

"So, there's this guy and he's a Reaper actually, never heard of it before so I don't know if-"

"A demon-blooded, continue," they interrupted him.

"So his grandfather has this serum that he used to forcefully shut off his humanity and have control over him. And he's evil," Landon explained.

Too many words. I rolled my eyes..

"This has happened before and I saw some Witches break the control with a dagger. We're here because we want your help to replicate that dagger," He added.

"The dagger. Do you know what it is?" They asked and we shook our heads.

"No, I only saw it through the memories of the Reaper," Landon said.

"Alright, we shall have to look into your memories," a Petrova sister said and Landon stood up to move closer, but they stopped him.

"Stop!" Their voice echoed at the same time, "Sit!"

Landon flinched and went back to his seat.

"Close your eyes and open your mind to us," they said and Landon nodded.

He breathed loudly and closed his eyes with his his hands on his laps.

"Alright. Do your thing."

Everything was silent for a while and I thought that the Petrova sisters were already getting the information they needed for a while until one of them finally talked.

"What are you doing?" She asked and I looked at Landon who opened his eyes in confusion.

"What are you talking about? What am I doing? I don't know what you're talking about?" Landon semeedd ignorant about what they were talking about.

"You want us to see what dagger it is, buy you're not letting us get into your head," they replied together.

What?

"What?!" Landon exclaimed and scoffed.

"I don't even know what you're talking about."

"We cannot see into your head because you're somehow blocking us from doing so."
