Sebastian and Stephanie arrived at Louis’ house.

“Hey Ray, I wasn’t sure you’d be here tonight,” said Stephanie.

“Misha’s family decided to visit their family in Italy for Christmas and flights to go there are too expensive for me.”

“I don’t know your situation, so I apologize in advance if I’m out of line… but if she wanted you to come and you wanted to go… could she have covered the cost of your flight tickets?” said Sebastian.

“Don’t worry, you’re fine. I’m sure she could have, her family has money, but she didn’t offer and I didn’t ask. I heard Coralis is taking Frank to Scotland tomorrow?”

“Yeah, and she didn’t offer either. She just paid for his tickets when she booked them, she knew he wanted to go.”

The doorbell rang. Sebastian was still standing by the door so he answered it.

“Hey Frank! Coralis and Audrey aren’t with you?”

“They should be here around 6. Their flights from St. Johns got cancelled, they had to take another one that had a layover in Ha

    December 24, 2002 – 17:45“Uh, kind of,” said Coralis, looking between Frank and Raymond, confused.“BRO!” said Frank, quickly turning to his brother. “They aren’t witches and they aren’t here to kill you.”“Sorry about that,” said Linda, walking to them to collect their winter coats and bags. “Raymond found out when Sebastian and Frank arrived. He asked questions about Audrey school’s situation and why you were the one to pick her up. He doesn’t know everything yet.”Audrey was holding tight to Coralis, which didn’t go unnoticed by Frank. It meant a lot to him that his family was accepting of Coralis and how close she and Audrey became. Lizzy got up the stairs and went around Raymond to meet up with Coralis and Audrey.“Sebastian and Lizzy said they were mages, so they’re witches, aren’t they?” said Raymond.“No, Ray, they aren’t,” said Stephanie, looking at her brother through the railing. “A witch and a mage aren’t the same thing. Let us explain it to you before you jump to conclus

    December 24, 2002 – 19:10“BRO!” said Stephanie and Frank at the same time.They all stopped eating.“Why would we?” said Coralis.“Humans aren’t our enemies, I don’t see why we would kill you all just because we could,” said Sebastian.“I’m not trying to offend anyone, but I can’t help myself from wondering if you’re all into a fake bubble, feeling safe when you aren’t, although I can hear myself thinking clearly, so I don’t know. I’m confused about all of this. Coralis, if you grew up in orphanages, shouldn’t you hate us all? Unless you didn’t.”“BRO! That’s enough!” said Frank, then looked at Coralis, “Luv, you don’t have to answer him.”“It’s fine,” she said while massaging his thigh to reassure him. “It’s a legit concern, especially considering the current heated climate among elemental clans and other supernatural. There are a lot of clans and factions out there that want me to hate humans enough to turn against them.”“But you would never, I know you would never, right? Neither

    December 24, 2002 – 21:00“Uh, right, sure. I admit I’m not fully knowledgeable about human marriage rituals, I mean, ceremonies, except from what I saw in the movies I watched with Stephanie. I’ve had classes on human society at school so we can blend in better, but the teacher didn’t elaborate on the marriage part. Coralis might have to teach me about it,”“Nah, my past among humans taught me about divorce, I’m not a reference there.”“Right, so. Yes, we view mates as soulmates and unlike humans, we don’t do divorce. For us, when we decide to take a mate, it’s a forever thing and the ritual ensures that. However, I will also point out that when it comes to mixed couples, I mean, when an elemental takes a non-elemental mate, or spouse, we may or may not do the full ritual, it depends on the couple and uh, the non-elemental partner,” said Sebastian.“Why does it differ, is it because it involved a certain amount of magic?” said Frank, his arm still around Coralis’s shoulder.“Partiall

    December 24, 2002 – 21:35“There is a lot of truth to that, I think,” said Coralis.“What about your bloodlines? You two are pure-blooded, right?” said Lizzy.“Yes, we are. Mine originates from the Roman goddess Salacia, we’re water mages. We’re close to our god and although most of my family lives in an elemental realm… somewhere underground… we never agreed to the radical ideology that wants us to rule over humans. We believe we should guide and protect, not rule and enslave.”Sebastian removed his vest and rolled up the short sleeve of his shirt to reveal what looked like a small tattoo behind his left shoulder, a pattern symbolizing his family goddess.“When we reach maturity, usually a few years after graduation, but depends on bloodline and, well, life events,” continued Sebastian while putting his vest back on, “we get the mark of our family god. It appears on our skin overnight or gradually, depending on the bloodline.”“Oh, so we could potentially be in danger from your kind?

    March 10, 2003Coralis got back home in the middle of the night. They considered installing a pet door on their kitchen window. Their back door didn’t have a screen door. The window did have a screened layer, but it wasn’t the time of the year to leave the windows open and they didn’t want squirrels to come in during summertime. It would look suspicious if only Cheetah could pass through a pet door, so they decided against it.Once again, she had a lot of blood on herself, but her winter coat was clean. She was hoping that no one would notice the blood on her face as she crossed the street and was thankful that Frank chose an apartment located across the street from the park.She took a shower to get the blood off her skin and crawled into bed next to Frank. He turned to bring her closer to him.“Hey luv!” he said in a sleepy voice, as she passed her left arm around his chest. “How was your night?”“Long and weird.

    April 26, 2003After her flyball game in France, she stopped at her London flat. She hadn’t been there for a month and Henry told her she had a pile of mail waiting for her.“Hey sis, it feels like forever since we haven’t seen each other, yet you still live here, technically,” said Erik.“True, last time I stopped here for the night, you weren’t there.”“Ah yes, we were playing in Asia. Are you still working in Scotland?”“Not at the moment. This past month I’ve been working more in the United States, but I’m being sent to just about everywhere for consulting works lately.”“That explains why you’ve been getting a lot of mail from EBEE,” said Henry.“While I’m here, I should also collect my stash of uncashed checks.”“Speaking of the United States, we got a tip regarding Fart in the Sea, somewhere in Florida. You in?” said Gus.“If I don’t have to be across the planet when you’re going there, count me in.”Coralis had a drink with them and took off toward Montreal. She arrived at her

    June 8, 2003 – 11:00Coralis hovered above the rooftop of Eva’s apartment building. Because of her line of work, Eva didn’t want to live on any pack lands, to prevent endangering innocent pack members if one of her enemies decided to seek out revenge against her.Given their long list of enemies, Coralis had her building warded recently, to prevent any elementals from entering Eva’s building, except for her very short list of trusted ones. She also warded it to allow Eva to go in and out of her apartment using portals to and from her rooftop, without any human seeing anyone mysteriously appearing and disappearing from it.“I hate portals, but I think I’m going to start using that method when coming home covered in blood,” said Coralis as Eva sat behind her.“Are we still meeting with Princess Veronica in a small town near Chicago called Clear Valley?”“Yes, Alfredino sent me there. I called Veronica right after I ended my call with him. No one in her family called the EBEE and she sai

    June 8, 2003 – 14:00“Lucas! That smells like him,” said Trisha.“Nah, that has an EBEE stench,” said Eva, sniffing the air. “Only Blue has officially been sent here. The smell purge probably was just in case I’d be here, but I agree with her, this looks like a setup. In the middle of a human town like that, either they want to force her to expose herself to humans to solve the case… or they hope to be able to take her out alone when she searches for the missing people.”“Last year, some elders at the EBEE worked with Lucas to take down my family, but they failed. I think the setup isn’t just against Blue, it’s also to expose us. Why else would they leave corpses drained of blood for humans to find?” said Veronica.“All right, so we will solve this case the old-fashioned way and talk in code between us when town folks are around,” said Coralis, her hand on the door handle. “Here is what we will do. We will go next door to confirm our theory, and then we check on the corpses. We will d

    January 4, 2004 – 15:00Coralis got out of the taxi and looked at the house standing in front of her. Frank wanted to come, but he had an event to cover and couldn’t find a replacement. Part of her didn’t want to be there and wanted to call a taxi to go back home, but she knew she couldn’t. It was time for her to meet Dawn, her dad’s sister.She took a deep breath and walked to the door, hoping it wouldn’t get emotional, not like it did when she met with Dorothy for the first time. She rang the doorbell. No answer. She rang it again, thinking that if she had to ring it a third time, she would leave.A few minutes later, a small woman opened the door. She looked like her, but shorter. Coralis wanted to remove her binds to see if it was true that her aunt lost all of her elemental powers, but decided against it, especially not in the open like that. She could only hope that she was walking into friendly territory, that she didn’t have a foe waiting for her behind the door.“I wish I cou

    January 1, 2004Coralis sat in a church between Frank and Audrey, listening to the pastor perform the wedding ceremony. Part of her wanted to sit next to her flyball team members, who sat near the back of the church on the groom’s side, or next to Erik and Henry, who sat behind her team, but she knew that her place was on the bride’s side, with the family who was also about to become hers.She didn’t want to think about her own upcoming wedding and was happy that this day was all about Sebastian and Stephanie. She was merely there as a witness and spectator. She wanted to forget about everything else, and merely be a woman watching her friends getting married, but she couldn’t stop herself from worrying about what could happen.She knew that High Mage Finnas was sitting at the back of the church, but she didn’t want to look in his direction so it wouldn’t raise suspicions. Thankfully, the majority of the people in attendance knew about the supernatural. Stephanie’s coworkers were werew

    December 24, 2003 – 19:00“Sally has been killed?” said Sebastian.Samantha nodded and answered Linda’s question. Frank looked at his sister. He knew she was also worried. The doorbell rang and he jumped. Louis went upstairs to answer, followed by Lizzy.“Congratulations!” said Louis as he let Coralis and Audrey in. “We saw on the news. The UK is no longer hunting you down.”“And no longer stuck on house arrest in London,” said Lizzy as she hugged her daughter.“I told you so!” said Sebastian as Coralis walked down the stairs to meet with the others.“Don’t get too comfortable, we’ll be moving to the kitchen to eat,” said Linda as Coralis gave a confused look to Sebastian.Sebastian told her the discussion they had before she and Audrey arrived as Frank led her to the kitchen, his hand on her lower back.“By the way, Sebastian, Emery is now a wanted witch. He was 49th when I checked the lists after talking to MI6.“Frank mentioned something about names when I started calling you Blue,

    December 24, 2003 – 16:30Louis handed Frank a drink after Linda collected their winter coats.“I remember that night she took down your former leader. I heard a lot about him, but nothing good,” said Stephanie.“Took down former leader? Is it the duel you mentioned last year when we were trying to get Audrey back?” said Louis, looking at Stephanie.Stephanie nodded to her uncle.“Frank us that you’re close to Coralis, are you like her?” said Molly.“Coralis? Ah yes, I keep forgetting she’s known under a different name. I’m not exactly like her. I’m a werepanther, a different type of lycanthrope,” said Samantha, following Frank to the basement.“I remember seeing her transforming into a panther the night she killed Dwayne,” said Lizzy.“Some mages learn to transform into an animal of their choice. Blue can transform into a black panther,” said Sebastian, leaning on the chair Stephanie sat on.“She looked like a black cat when she came back from that house with that Veronica girl,” sai

    December 24, 2003 – 06:00Coralis was making coffee when Samantha woke up.“Good morning, Samantha! You’re up early.”“I couldn’t sleep. Are you sure it’s fine if I come with you guys tonight?”“Yeah, if they told us you’re welcome to come, then you are welcome. They’re very nice people, and they know about us. Well, they know about me and Sebastian, Stephanie knows about you, they won’t mind what you are.”“If they know I’m not human and still want me to come, I think that’s already more than I can hope for.”“Think about it, I rank 11th on the global list of witches to kill on sight and they still want me to marry into their family. What does that tell you?”“All I need to know.”Twenty minutes later, while the girls were making breakfast, Frank woke up. It had only been 5 days since Coralis returned home after a long absence and to him, it still felt like it was the day before.“Considering the time it was when you got home last night, shouldn’t you still be sleeping?”Coralis jump

    December 23, 2003 – 22:15“LIEUTENANT YOUMIS?” said Sebastian, looking at him. “Wasn’t he supposed to replace High Fay Zaaro?”“Yes. These abominations reek of his essence.”A few minutes later, Coralis got back on her feet and stepped out of the circle.“Lieutenant Youmis is exhausted. I don’t think he will regain control anytime soon,” said Coralis.“And you said vampire essence was in the mix?” said Eva.“The second time was already worse than the first time. And now this? Why here? Why our pack?” said Emma, as Emery walked back through the portal, followed by High Fay Ellya.“I don’t know why, but we will find out. That’s also why I didn’t want to kill the wolves. We know we can reverse it. Once the connection to their human counterpart is restored, we can question them,” said Coralis, looking at the time on her phone. “I should call my mate before he gets home and worries if I’m not there.”“Ellya, we need to send a unit to capture Lieutenant Youmis.

    December 23, 2003 – 21:00 The Northerners were playing at home that night. When the game was over and she and Sebastian were about to take off to go home, Coralis received a call from Emma. She signalled Sebastian to wait and put the call on speakerphone. Emma was in a panic.“BLUE, can you come RIGHT NOW?”Sebastian suddenly got worried.“Where? What’s going on?”“Is Stephanie okay?”“Here at Red Crescent pack. Yes, Stephanie is fine. She left Healing Moon at 9 to go home. She’s not here.”Sebastian was relieved to hear that and swore that if Stephanie still wanted it, he’d complete their bond when he got home, even if he knew Coralis was probably right: the mark was a seal.“I’ll be on my way. I’m close by,” said Coralis, ending the call, and took off, Sebastian following her.“What do you think happens this time?” said Sebastian, as he was trying to keep up with her.“I don’t know, but I’m guessing she couldn’t reach out to anyone at the CMMA.

    December 20, 2003 – 00:15 (Scotland Time)Coralis closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She wanted to rip their eyes out and strangle them, but she knew these girls were humans, most likely heading to the same destination as she. She believed Frank when he said nothing ever happened with that actress, but she didn’t like these girls talking that way about her man.She was thankful to have her wrist binds so she wouldn’t break storefront windows by accident. Her eyeglasses only prevented her from using her eyes to direct her elemental energy and to camouflage their elemental colour but without her wrist binds, her elemental energy still leaked through her pores and she could still use her hands to direct it. She walked away and headed to the bar before she did anything to these girls and ended up in jail.Her flight landed in Montreal early morning. She had a game in Mexico in the evening but decided to skip practice time just so she could spend more time with Frank before she had to

    December 19, 2003 – noon“There is still a hold on your name, right?” said Erik.“In Scotland? Why not in London?” said Henry.“Yes, but considering Blue Thunder is technically a citizen of England, she doesn’t have jurisdiction over me. I could still be walking into a trap, however, so I still made sure of that. Not sure why she wants to meet there, but I think it’s better there than in London. Even with a hold on my name, I’m not too keen on walking around the SIS headquarters. Taking my flight from Scotland instead sounds like a better idea anyway.”She tried to call Frank on her way to Scotland but got no response. She hoped he was still asleep and tried not to overthink it, but she was worried. As she was hovering above the meeting spot, Frank called her back.“That was you trying to call, right?” said Frank as soon as she answered.“Yeah, everything okay?”“Yes. I was in the shower. Wanted to take my phone in the bathroom just in case you’d call, but my scattered brain forgot it
