Alistair sat bored on his throne, waiting for his brother to arrive. He soon switched position in his seat, with one hand under his chin and the other swirling around the drink in his glass. He was thinking of ways to make October love him, but all he could think of was torture.

"Brother," Onyx said, pushing the doors of the throne room open. ''What? No music for my grand entrance.'' He opened his arm as a twisted smile formed on his face.

"Onyx." Alistair greeted him bluntly, then downed the rest of what was in his glass in one big gulp.

"Is that anyway to greet your older brother? We haven't seen each other in a while. I wasn't expecting you to run in my arms, but to at least be more... welcoming," Onyx asked as he walked over to look at a painting of their parents.

"What do you want, Onyx?" Alistair asked. "Make it snappy, even though this place has nothing to offer you."

All Alistair wanted to do was go watch his bride, even from a distance. He was slowly becoming obsessed with he

    "Be nice to your sister," Horatio scolded their son Shawn, who pushed Hazel down, but picked her up and brushed off her jeans after getting into trouble.Leo snuck up behind them, jumping on Shawn's back."Hey," Shawn cried out, falling to the ground.Hazel laughed, jumping on him as well.Out of nowhere, Skylar joined the pile."Leave them, they are just playing." Scarlet stopped Horatio when he tried to get up.Their children were six years old now but acted much older."Leo reminds me of you." Horatio kissed Scarlet softly on her lips."Eww!" the quadruplets said together.Looking away from their parents, Shawn covered his eyes, while his siblings giggled.Scarlet smiled at them. "May said that Hazel looks just like my mom. And I think Leo looks like you. The only thing is, he has red hair.""Umm," was Horatio's only reply."Shawn looks like me as well, but with a little mix of your features," he said, kissing the top of her head."We sure make lovely children." Horatio kissed Scar

    "Kera, are you ok?" Scarlet touched her shoulder to feel it shaking."No, my father killed my mother. He then lied that Horatio was the one who had done it. Why would he do that?" Kera cried.Horatio leaned his head to the side. "Matthew killed Catherine? I thought-" he paused to think about it."He told me she went out to seek some information. When your mother didn't return, he went to look for her, then later came back saying she was dead." Horatio placed a hand on her shoulder."I'm sorry that this happened to you, and I never had a hand in the death of your mother."Kera wiped at her nose. "I know you don't. I saw when he did it in their room. He said he saw you leaving the room and that I mustn't trust you, but he didn't know I saw the entire thing, he must have read my mind and that's why he took me to Magnus, but why did he kill mom?" Kera sobbed. "He never taught me anything. Mom was the one to always tell things and show me how to use my powers, so why did he kill her?""This

    Scarlet made her way to the crystal cave, to put the red crystal back in its place and cast a spell so that no one can ever reach it again.She also hoped that it would restore the village to what it once was when it was back in its place.Scarlet, Kera, Elijah, and May had gone ahead of the others after the cave refused their entrance. "Hey, May. Remember, you said an ancestor of mine might be from this clan? Is that why the cave allowed me to enter with you?" Kera asked. Elijah glanced at her, noticing that after the war three days ago, and all the training with Scarlet, she was much braver and more confident now. Scarlet asked the river nymphs for entrance, but they start playing around, splashing her with water. "You little." Scarlet cast a spell, making a gigantic wave that washed the nymphs ashore."Scarlet!" May scolded her.Scarlet stopped laughing and helped them back into the water. "Scarlet that was so totally not nice, not cool at all." A nymph told her. Then the stai

    April placed a hand over her mouth as she dodged a warlock's fist, then vaporized. Scarlet stood up suddenly. "This all ends now." She began to draw energy from the earth, then let it out. Everyone was thrown off their feet, while it dissolved most of the enemies into nothing. Those who were still stupid enough to run at her got blasted while her dragons had also changed into beings more malevolent, letting out purple and black fire, burning everything. April traced over to Elijah. "We have to stop her before she kills everyone." Elijah gulped. "But she seems demonic."April pinned him with a look. "You're just as strong. Come on." She dragged him off to where Scarlet was. April told him what to do.Elijah grabbed a hold of Scarlet's hand and start chanting some words, feeling the energy rolling from her to him. He directed it to the sky, blocking out the moon.Scarlet fell to the ground, then got up quickly, snarling at April and Elijah. She groaned, holding her head, looking

    Nikki let out a cry, her sword sliced right through Matthew as if he was made of butter. His body fell to the ground in two halves, and his face now had a peaceful smile as if that was what he wanted all along.Nikki let out another cry.She walked over to where Kera lay and noticed that the hole in her body was getting smaller and smaller.Kera groaned before sitting up. Nikki gasped. "Kera, you're alive, how is that possible?" Kera looked down at her body in shock. "Did Scarlet teach you how to do that?'' Nikki laughed. Kera shook her head still looking at her body. "No, but the crystals she had us plant yesterday worked, so none of us will die." "But what about those who come to fight us?" Nikki asked, helping Kera to her feet."Scarlet only cares about us, not them, and now is not the time for chit-chat. We are in the middle of a war." "Right," Nikki nodded. "Let's go," Kera smiled, and together they ran after some elves, who ran away screaming. ****Elijah was holding his

    When they got to the top of the hill, Kera gulped from beside Elijah, who was too engrossed by the strange glow the red moon cast down on them. The place seemed even more sinister than on any other night. The place was also silent and all he could do was wait until the enemies break the line."Do you think Murmalaid would have helped us out in this situation?" Kera asked.Elijah glanced down at her. "No, because things have changed, but even then, I doubt the fates or gods would have let her interfere. There are no more humans to worry about."Kera nodded. "I guess you are right."Scarlet looked over at her brother, giving him a smile because of how brave he was. When she looked back out, she could see the flames that had engulfed parts of the village."It's a good thing we thought of evacuating the village and an even better idea to have our people set up out there."Horatio held her hand."It is a good thing Miley isn't here to see all this. She would be crying by now." Nikki joked,
