"I have something to show you," Elijah said hesitantly. He then took out two snake idols from his pocket. He let out a breath, and they transformed into enormous snakes the moment he did. A shadowy figure appeared beside Elijah, floating next to his head. It took on the form of a dog, who had miss matched gray and blue eyes."Oh no, what have you got yourself into, punk?" The shadow dog wailed, flying at Elijah.Elijah swatted him away, and he passed through a nearby tree.The big cobra snake seemed to laugh, while the other was shifting from one type of snake to the other."These are my snakes. The cobra is Stan, and the shifter is Chena. They are like your dragons, and that dog over there is my guardian, Shadow,'' Elijah explained, mostly Horatio, because he seemed confused.''I remember them,'' Scarlet said with a frown.As the words left Scarlet's mouth Chena attacked her but Defensionem blocked the blow, with Impetum went in for the kill. Scarlet had to jump in the way to prevent

Tiffany was just about to lie down when Lizzy appeared in her room. She smiled at her. "I have a job for you."****The next morning, Tiffany took her time and put on her uniform. She brushed through her stringy hair, pout her lips, then sighed.''First Karl, and Matthew, now Lizzy.''Tiffany looked at her clock, then look one last time in the mirror before walking out of her room and heading to the mansion, where she entered through the kitchen as she always does. She still felt bad for killing that old hag. She thought that Horatio would have done something to her, but she got away with it."Well, at least now no one can bribe her into talking about what she knows." Karl had said.He had promised Tiffany a better life at the mansion if she helped him, so she did. But now Lizzy was promising her a place in the world, a place to rule if she helped her. Naturally, Tiffany went for the highest bid. How could she not say yes?She swung open the closet door, taking out the broom and dust

A noise came from the back of Horatio's throat that sounded like a dying animal after seeing Nikki laying on her bed with purple veins popping up her neck and forehead. She was not breathing as well."Nikki," Scarlet said, softly looking at the girl.Scott tried to touch her, but pulled back his hand, hissing in pain."It's wolfsbane," Scarlet told them, then look at his hand that is now green.Horatio went over to lift Nikki off the bed, ignoring the stinging pain. He placed her gently on the ground, looking up at Scarlet with raw emotion in his eyes.She understood what he wanted her to do."April, Eli. I'm going to need your help. All the wolves need to leave." Scarlet commanded.Horatio still had his hand under his sister's head. He shook his head, letting Scarlet know he was not going to leave."Chris, Zach, you guys leave as well. Wolfsbane might not be lethal to vampires, but it can do a lot of damage. Horatio, you need to leave. Stop being stubborn and just go!" Scarlet glared

Scarlet kept replaying what Tiffany had just said in her mind. She nor anyone else expected it, but the deformed maid said some disturbing words which matched her personality and appearance."I'm just sorry that those bitches aren't dead, but I guess I should have taken out Scarlet first. But we are too afraid of that the so-called all-powerful witch would have killed us. It is hard to sneak up on her and she picks up on things fast. We tried to frame her, but it didn't work, especially with everyone liking her so suddenly." Tiffany laughed and drooled escaped her lips."We?" was the only thing Karl could manage to get out. He was quiet the whole time, listening on with a disbelieving look on his face.Lizzy let out a bone-chilling laugh. "Yes, we! And don't act like you don't know now Karl, you had a play in this too. Unless you are now rethinking the allegiance, you pledged to Onyx? We don't have to pretend no, the cat is out of the bag. But like stupid and ugly said, we should have

Roars, screams, screeches, and laughter sounded throughout the coven. Along with that was the sound of fighting that caused the place to shake.Feeling frustrated, Crystal placed a pillow over her face and screamed because the place was too loud for them to get any rest."Don't these damn lores ever sleep?" She asked herself."Shut up!" One of her roommates yelled."If you were sleeping, you wouldn't have heard me talking to myself," she responded.It's been like that for two days now, and in a couple of days from that, they go to war. But everyone was only busy partying, and killing each like there was no pending war. They had no care, and you would think they had already won with how cocky they were behaving.Crystal rolled over facing the wall, her mind was racing. She tried to block out her thoughts, but it was no good. The mess of the place was just too much, and she was afraid that she would lose her mind."Hey there," she gasped, then looked over to where the voice was coming f
