As they scurried around in an attempt to see, each one began to cough and scream for their poor eyes stung like they were being attacked by a swarm of bees.
The addition of tear gas to that smoke screen was a wise decision, his wolf said as Alaric beat them up and collected the bunch of keys from the head guard.
Indeed, it was, he replied.
Luck was on his side. The bunch was a small one so it was not hard for him to find the particular rusty key to the big padlock. He opened it as quietly as he could and went in. Everywhere was in pitch darkness.
How come this place is so quiet? Aren't there supposed to be guards in here as well? his wolf asked.
I wonder about that as well, he replied.
He took a look around the cold space but it was completely empty save for the equally empty cages that were littered around.
Maybe they now keep the prison
Valentino descended from the tree that he was perched on. They were lucky enough to escape those cavemen who chased them far into the woods. He got to where Arthur and Kasa were waiting for him. Kasa was laying on her back looking at the tranquil sky.In his mind, Valentino wondered what was going on with her. Recently, Kasa Hemming had not been herself. All of a sudden, she became a secretive person, always keeping to herself. She rarely engaged in any conversation the way she used to. The only time she acted like his Kasa was when they made love and even then, he still felt this odd energy around her. He was truly worried about her but each time he asked her what the matter was, she snapped at him like an angry dog."Did we lose them?" Arthur basked him."Yes, I think we did, Valentino said. "What we need think about now is how we will survive out here.""What do you mean by 'how we will survive ou
Kasa was shocked but she did not obey him, instead, she held on tighter. "Kasa, we both know that after this display of affection, you will just go back to acting like I mean nothing to you so why don't you leave me alone then go back and make up your mind on what exactly you want to do?" he said.She came to his front and stood on tiptoes while putting her hands under his shirt. It did the trick, but halway. Valentino wanted to hold her as well but he knew that would only make his problem worse. With all the self control he could muster, he pushed her lightly away from him."We need to rest up. Tomorrow, we need to find our way out of here," he said as he went back to where Arthur was waiting for them.Kasa followed behind him with dejected steps. Valentino had never acted like this towards her before, even when she had been a complete bitch to him. She ran to him and looked into his eyes. "Babe…" she whispered.
"So this kind of thing has never happened to you before?" Zayna asked the bedridden Catori."No. This is the first time," the redhead replied. "I don't even know how to describe how I felt." She turned to face the window momentarily.Zayna looked around. She wondered where Fenris was. As if the earth heard her thoughts, the door opened and in came the leader of the Ghost Reapers. The energy in the room was enough to tell him that something was wrong."Did something happen?" he asked as he took a seat between the two girls on the bed."She had a…I don't even know what to call it but let her tell you what happened to her," Zayna said. "Tell him what you experienced, Catori."Fenris looked at her fatigued face with worry. Her voice was weak when she started talking. She started the story of what happened. "...It actually started when I held the girl by her shirt. I felt this
Not wanting to be rude to him as well, his daughter let Fenris take it from there. The older man listened to the Ghost Reaper as he explained the situation as much as possible, to the best of his ability.Arthur sighed when the leader of the Ghost Reapers finished filling him in. "Ask her if she felt her eyes change color or if anyone pointed out that there was a change in the color of her eyes," he told Fenris.Catori replied in the stead of the Ghost Reaper. "Nobody said anything about my eyes. But did feel something odd around there though I did not pay attention to it at the time," she replied.Arthur sighed for the second time. "I should normally tell Catori this alone but you'll find out anyway," he started. "What happened to Tori today is not too surprising. That's a special ability that runs in my family.""Oh?" the redhead commented."Yes. It is called Spucia and it is u
Catori gulped nervously as the two Ghost Reapers exchanged looks. Fenris went to answer the door when the visitors knocked for the second time. "Hello officers," he said as he stood at the door, blocking them."Good evening sir. May we come in?" the one who looked like the head of the two officers said.He smiled tightly and said. "Yes, of course you can."The policeman came in to see what looked like a sick girl and her boyfriend peering over her in his pajamas while Fenris stood by the side. "What seems to be the problem?" Fenris asked them.The older looking policeman took out his badge and flashed it in Fenris' face. "My name is Officer Jones and a theft has been reported in this hotel," he said. "So we are doing room to room searching. We hope you won't mind." He looked at them skeptically, like they were the thieves."By all means, feel free," Fenris said with his arms out
"Hey," Kelvin said to Catori on their way to the magic fair."What up?" she asked nonchalantly."I know that you must be really angry about earlier. I just want to say I'm sorry," he said lowly.She shrugged her shoulders. "Kelvin, you owe me no apology. I just think that I felt a little bad that you see me as a harmful person," she told him. "But it's fine, actually." She gave him a tight smile."I am really sorry, Catori," he replied and kept quiet.The walk to the Vegas magic fair was long and silent. Erica was still angry with her boyfriend so she was not talking to him for the time being. They got to the fair and made it a point of duty to stick together this time. "So where should we go first?" Erica asked, breaking the silence.Carori shrugged. "I think we should start with the werewolves," Alex said and glanced at Catori instinctively.
Cassie sat in the dark tent as she waited for the witch to attend to her. The old with had given her a small stool to sit on at a small round table."Yes darling. What did you come for again?" the woman's high pitched voice came as she sat opposite Cassie."I need a love potion," the blonde girl told her.She nodded in understanding. "So what will be the exact purpose of this love potion?" she asked the girl with a hand on her chin.Cassie hissed at her. "What is this, an interview?" she asked with a tone which showed how irritated she was. "Just sell me a love potion."The greying woman laughed hysterically. "Darling, do not be quick to talk," she told the young lady. "Before I sell a potion to you, I need to know what it will be used for. There are potions that are used to make the love last longer but that is where there is love. There are other potions which are designed to m
The inhabitants of the small cottage could hear growling on the other side of the door. "What is that?" one of the children asked as he hugged Kasa's leg."Werewolf," Arthur and Valentino said at the same time.Kasa managed to detach herself from the little boys and put them in the charge of the girl. "Do we have any strategy on how to get these kids out of here?" she asked the two men in a low tone.Valentino looked at the kids. "One of you should open the door for whoever is there," he ordered them then turned to his comrades, who were looking at him with wide eyes. "We should go into the kitchen," he said as he dragged both of them into the smelly kitchen."Why would you tell them to do such a thing?" Kasa whisper yelled."I did that because if they do not open that door, it will just end up being burst open, which is not a good thing, is it?" he said."An
