Samantha Point of viewThe umbrella was too small to fit us both. The sides of our shoulders were getting soaked as we made our way back home. When we arrived, dad was already there with mom. I hesitated to come closer. Especially when mom was right there. Did she tell dad?The night went by. Mom was ignoring me, Xavier tried his best to act as nothing happened and Dad seemed like he knew nothing. I glanced at mom time to time but continued to ignore me throughout dinner. It was a reaction I was expecting but I was still wondering why she has not told dad? We finished dinner. Mom said she wasn't feeling well so she went to bed early. I stayed behind to do the dishes while Xavier helped out with the laundry. As I was washing, I hear dad coming in. I thought he would tell me that he knew but instead, he asked what was going on with me and mom."We had a disagreement about something," I answered while looking down at my bubbly hands on

Samantha Point of view  Lena was the one who forced Tera to come over and start discussing the spell with me. She was reluctant at first but she came moments later. The things she took out of her bag were a pile of papers with a bunch of writings and pictures. She explained that these were the chants and instructions we needed to know before the spell. She also explained to me that the materials were also needed and were nothing to worry about since she was going to handle them herself. The parts of the keepers were to simply chant and offer blood.  She went over the chants and taught me how to pronounce them all since this was not in English. Since it was an old spell, it was expected it would be in an ancient language. I was shocked since only a few people knew how to read them. Seeing how Tera was so fluent made me curious about her life since she looked young to learn this. No wonder Rai chose her to help him with the sp

Samantha Point of view The moment when we woke up till the moment we arrived in the forest went by so quickly. We had to act fast because Lena's powers as a keeper would expire any day now. Rai picked the forest nearest to my house so he could lure in mom while we do part of the spell ourselves.  Rai dropped Tera's bag full of the things we needed for the spell. Tera quickly went through them and gave some stuff to Lena. Lena grabbed the papers and bowls and set them on the ground. Tera also pulls out a piece of jewelry that we would use to combine our powers for the spell.  The girls were busy while I on the other hand dozed off after taking the herbs out of Rai's bag. After I placed the herbs on the bowl, I unconsciously stared at it for the longest time. I finally snapped out of it when I felt a hand on my back. I turned around and saw Rai behind me. He asked me if I was okay to which I replied, "Of course." Rai looked li

Samantha Point of view  It wasn't a good morning to wake up to. We knew that the moment we left the guest house we all slept in. The sky was covered in grey clouds and there was barely any light that shined at the moment. The weather wasn't going to improve any time soon either but there was no way that we would stop from performing the spell.  The cold wind blew at us as we finally finished the first stage which was Preparation. The candles were lit and securely in place. We made sure that even if the wind would blow harder the candles would stay upright. We didn't need to worry about the fire going out either. If we do the spell right, the fire will stay lit.  Tera was standing right in the middle of those 9 candles while Lena and I stood right outside the circle. Tera took out the containers of a bunch of herbs that she ground last night. She took a nervous breath and looks at both of us. "Let's start now." We both n

Her eyes glances at the demon everyone in a while as we talked."We don't have a choice," I said. I peeked to look at the demon but she was busy restoring the herb to its original state in the bowl. She slowly starting to fix everything that she caused since her appearance in Tera's body. The ground was solid and the grass came back to life. Even the flames lessened and turned back to red flames.I quickly turn back to Lena and whispered to her, "Trust me, If we don't accept her offer then we are as good as dead." Lena didn't reply but she knew that it was true. "I'll think of a plan along the way." "You are forgetting that we need to give something in return for her service," Lena whispers back. She peeks at Tera and we see her chanting over the bowl. Could be something to help the spell to work. "I don't know. I don't f
