Cazador Vault Key Novels & Stories

“I locked it and left the key with the ledger. No one else has the key, Kathie. I swear.” I watched Katherine’s face soften a fraction. She crossed the room and together the three of us moved to the vault. Hazel produced the ledger and thumbed through, fumbling then found the small brass key tucked between pages, just like Katherine had remembered. “You’re sure this is the right one?” Hazel asked. “You kept it there,” Katherine said. “You promised.” Hazel nodded and turned the key in the padlock. The inner box slid out and Hazel’s hands shook as she opened it. Time folded in on itself, stretched thin with the weight of what we all expected to find, or not find.

They want the key that opens the other vaults. There are more? Faith asked. Twelve more,” Leo said, his face pale. “My father's notes….the Stabilizer was just the first one. The others hold things much worse. Weapons. Viruses. The True Court wants all of them.” Faith gripped the silver key in her pocket. She looked at the angry crowd outside through the window. “They’re using the students as a distraction,” Faith said. While I'm fighting Chloe and the fans, they're hunting the other keys.

There was a clicking sound — a release — and a small compartment opened. Enzo remained in the doorway, not a word crossed his lips, not a muscle in his face twitched. His piercing blue eyes followed Cassiel’s movements, noting the key — the ordinary metal key — that fell into his hand from the hidden drawer. Cassiel pressed it into his closed fist, knuckles growing even whiter, then opened another drawer — this time a locked drawer — and retrieved a strange, cruciform key from its depth. The metal glimmered under the dim glow of the chandelier above, a key designed not for a simple lock, but something else — something more clandestine, more painful.

He too, held it up, getting closer to the fire, examining it every which way. “Do you recognize it?” Caitlin asked. He shook his head. Caitlin came over, getting close to him, as they both sat by the fire and touched the key. As she turned it over, she noticed something. She licked her finger, and rubbed it alongside the metal. A final layer of dust evaporated, and there was visible a small inscription, written in a delicate script. The Vincent House. She looked to Caleb. “Do you know it?” He leaned back, shook his head and sighed.

We lower Caitlyn between those rings like a bad idea in a jar and lock the lid with a song Oloron shouldn’t remember and sings anyway. She doesn’t speak. She smiles with her teeth and eyes like knives and I’ve never wanted to wash a room so bad. “Council vault at dawn,” I tell Cassie. “If they blink wrong, we take the quarry door instead.” “Copy,” she says, already drafting manifests and a list of people who will not be permitted within ten meters of this box if they value kneecaps.

Suddenly, they could cast spells that would have killed them prior. This weapon was a huge advantage. But in the wrong hands, they would be devastating. So, the celestials created vaults to lock the weapons away. They chipped off pieces of the nexus stone and imbued them with unlocking magic. This is why they are referred to as keys. Each vault has a specific key, which is the only way into the vault. “The necklace that everyone seeks is the key to the vault beneath Bright Moon,” Centra told her. “Rumor is that Celestials specifically created the stones with shadow magic, but it takes both shadow and life energy magic to unlock the vaults. Only a keeper would know for sure.”

C and whispered something to him. "Oh! Gentleman, we got 500.000! Going once. Going twice! Sold for 500.000 dollar!" They are all crazy. 500.000 dollar? How can someone have that much money? A guy told me to walk back to the backstage and an old man was standing there with a girl that i saw back in the waiting room. I think she was the girl called Elliana Wood or something. She looked surprisingly happy. "Good evening, my name is Alfred."

It was not a losing game, every one of them wants to acquire what the Cator stronghold has kept in the dark for generations. "It will only reveals it's secrets to the true heir and that i. Cinthye Cator, the one who was given away, chased down and sitting in front of you. I am that heir. My blood runs through it's very foundations." She paused, letting her words sink into their minds. "But it will not open to individuals who will exploit it and use it for their own gain. I will only show itself to someone who understands it's purpose." Havana rolled her eyes with a matching scoff. "Purpose? What purpose does that dusty old vault have other than spiders and forgotten trinkets?"
