A Trilogy: Accession of the Immortals 64
October, her two siblings, along with her two best friends, stayed at the mall because her father had to go to work, to much of their relief. His idea of fun was taking his eldest child to build-a-bear and the zoo for her birthday. Daniel had left them early as well, because he had to go get prepared for the game later. Even though October was trying to enjoy herself, she couldn’t help but keep glancing around, because she had the feeling of being watched. The feeling came right after her father and boyfriend left, but no matter how much October tried to search the small space of the pizzeria for an unfamiliar face, she couldn't find one. She knew everyone in town, and no one seemed suspicious either. She signed, then took a bite out of her broccoli, cheese pizza to take her mind off things. But her thoughts still drifted to what that man had said in the cab. Their entire exchange came back to her like it always did. The faceless man with his deep voice would also often times appear

October leant on the wall, waiting for Daniel, mostly because she was too afraid to walk back by herself."Hey babe, how is my good luck charm?" Daniel asked, as he pushed the door open and stepped into the halls.He bent to kiss October, but she backed away."What's wrong? No kiss before the game?""Didn't you already get one from Gem? Yeah, I saw that. I hope you two are enjoying your time together," she told him, then walked away."October, it isn't like that.""The game is starting." She called over her shoulder.Daniel hurried over to her, but settled on walking closely behind, not saying a word or even feeling an ounce of guilt. Thinking that she wouldn't understand his reason for being with Gem."October, I-''"I really don't want to hear it."Daniel shook his head, then ran off to the field.When October got to her seat, Gem gave a smirk, then held up a banner that said 'Go Daniel!' Instead of 'Go team!' Like everyone else's.October went to sit directly behind her two-timing

"Is there a reason I'm being interrupted!?" Alistair roared, as he burst through the doors of the meeting room.The few members that were present flinched, while others avoid the crazed eyes of Alistair."Yes, we have knowledge that your bride is here. Not only are you holding her against her will, but you are torturing her as well." A woman spoke up.Alistair hissed at her. "I am King. I can do whatever I like."The woman shook her head. “It is against the law, and the council have decided to take action.""Take action!?" Alistair yelled.The woman nodded her head. "Under the act of--"In no time, Alistair had the woman pinned to the wall by her neck, cutting off what she had to say."This will be the last ever meeting. Consider this ‘council’ no more." Alistair threw the woman across the room."You can't end the council! It is not your place to do so," Claude, the head of the council, said.Alistair gave the man a smile while advancing on him. His fangs lengthened. The only thing th

Alistair sat bored on his throne, waiting for his brother to arrive. He soon switched position in his seat, with one hand under his chin and the other swirling around the drink in his glass. He was thinking of ways to make October love him, but all he could think of was torture."Brother," Onyx said, pushing the doors of the throne room open. ''What? No music for my grand entrance.'' He opened his arm as a twisted smile formed on his face."Onyx." Alistair greeted him bluntly, then downed the rest of what was in his glass in one big gulp."Is that anyway to greet your older brother? We haven't seen each other in a while. I wasn't expecting you to run in my arms, but to at least be more... welcoming," Onyx asked as he walked over to look at a painting of their parents."What do you want, Onyx?" Alistair asked. "Make it snappy, even though this place has nothing to offer you."All Alistair wanted to do was go watch his bride, even from a distance. He was slowly becoming obsessed with he

October quickly got to her feet. She didn't even hear the door opening or his footsteps approaching. But all she did was stare blankly at him as he stared back, waiting for an answer.October looked down at the mess she was standing in. "I-I... accidentally kicked over the tray." She lied. Thinking he wouldn't know, since it would seem as if she was picking up the food.Alistair watched her carefully before speaking. He had to fight the urge to strike her for lying to him. "A servant will be here to clean it up, and October. There is no way that you can escape. The floors, walls, glass and ceiling are all made out of reinforced material. Once you are in, there is no out. Once you are out, there is no way in."Alistair smiled when October's face fell."I know everything that you do October," Alistair told her after a beat.Her face took on something else other than sadness. "Why are you keeping me here? What do you want from me?" October asked in a small voice.Alistair stepped closer

October hesitated at the door, fully aware that Alistair was behind her. He gave her a gentle push, but she didn't budge. Instead, she wring her fingers, wondering if this was her death he was leading her to, because as far as she could see, the room was dark, so she turned to him, ready to beg for her life."You really don't have to do this," she told him.Alistair leant his head to the side, confused about what she was talking about."October Summer,'' A voice called, causing her to gasp.She spun around so fast, she almost lost her balance."Nice of you to visit. I thought my nephew would have kept you locked up in your room.""Please enter," he said, after his momentary pause of words. Alistair gave October another push, which caused her to enter the room fully. To where she saw a man sitting around a grand piano that was black and shiny. He was playing an unfamiliar tune, which pulled at her heart string as he hit the keys perfectly.October took a few involuntary steps forward,

Not only had she just learnt that she was there for nearly two weeks, but Dave wanted her to give her crazed kidnapper the benefit of the doubt and trust his reasoning.October walked around the corridors not knowing where to go; she took random turns, some of which led her to nothing."Where the hell am I even going?" She asked herself.October only stopped walking when she noticed she was in a corridor that was made entirely of glass. It gave the perfect view of a garden that had roses of different colours.October got lost in thought, imagining herself there, playing with and sniffing the flowers. She then remembered back to the times her mother would take her and her siblings on picnics. It brought tears to her eyes; she leant her head on the cool glass to calm herself.As she stood there for a while, watching the birds and butterflies while they danced around the flowers, she wished she could be free like them.Alistair's deep, husky voice startled October from her daydream, caus

October gulped as he continued to stare down at her, and her up at him. His face was unreadable while his mouth was set in a firm line.'Holy shit,' she thought, not from fear but from how sexy he was. Just leading on the doorpost, he looked like those men you see on steamy romance novel covers, the ones that got women's attention and made them wet the more they read about the pleasure the male brought to the female.October shook her head when her mind strayed, beginning to think if it would be like that for them."I can't have Stockholm syndrome," she accidentally said out loud without realising it.Alistair chuckled and shook his head. "Where have you been?'' He finally spoke. His voice held something that made her skin crawl and shivers to run down her spine.All that he had done to her came flooding back into her mind. She knew that he was not a man to play games with, but she had to lie, or at least stretch the truth."I was lost,'' October said, waving the map with a nervous la

A Trilogy: Accession of the Immortals The end
"Be nice to your sister," Horatio scolded their son Shawn, who pushed Hazel down, but picked her up and brushed off her jeans after getting into trouble.Leo snuck up behind them, jumping on Shawn's back."Hey," Shawn cried out, falling to the ground.Hazel laughed, jumping on him as well.Out of nowhere, Skylar joined the pile."Leave them, they are just playing." Scarlet stopped Horatio when he tried to get up.Their children were six years old now but acted much older."Leo reminds me of you." Horatio kissed Scarlet softly on her lips."Eww!" the quadruplets said together.Looking away from their parents, Shawn covered his eyes, while his siblings giggled.Scarlet smiled at them. "May said that Hazel looks just like my mom. And I think Leo looks like you. The only thing is, he has red hair.""Umm," was Horatio's only reply."Shawn looks like me as well, but with a little mix of your features," he said, kissing the top of her head."We sure make lovely children." Horatio kissed Scar

"Kera, are you ok?" Scarlet touched her shoulder to feel it shaking."No, my father killed my mother. He then lied that Horatio was the one who had done it. Why would he do that?" Kera cried.Horatio leaned his head to the side. "Matthew killed Catherine? I thought-" he paused to think about it."He told me she went out to seek some information. When your mother didn't return, he went to look for her, then later came back saying she was dead." Horatio placed a hand on her shoulder."I'm sorry that this happened to you, and I never had a hand in the death of your mother."Kera wiped at her nose. "I know you don't. I saw when he did it in their room. He said he saw you leaving the room and that I mustn't trust you, but he didn't know I saw the entire thing, he must have read my mind and that's why he took me to Magnus, but why did he kill mom?" Kera sobbed. "He never taught me anything. Mom was the one to always tell things and show me how to use my powers, so why did he kill her?""This

Scarlet made her way to the crystal cave, to put the red crystal back in its place and cast a spell so that no one can ever reach it again.She also hoped that it would restore the village to what it once was when it was back in its place.Scarlet, Kera, Elijah, and May had gone ahead of the others after the cave refused their entrance. "Hey, May. Remember, you said an ancestor of mine might be from this clan? Is that why the cave allowed me to enter with you?" Kera asked. Elijah glanced at her, noticing that after the war three days ago, and all the training with Scarlet, she was much braver and more confident now. Scarlet asked the river nymphs for entrance, but they start playing around, splashing her with water. "You little." Scarlet cast a spell, making a gigantic wave that washed the nymphs ashore."Scarlet!" May scolded her.Scarlet stopped laughing and helped them back into the water. "Scarlet that was so totally not nice, not cool at all." A nymph told her. Then the stai

April placed a hand over her mouth as she dodged a warlock's fist, then vaporized. Scarlet stood up suddenly. "This all ends now." She began to draw energy from the earth, then let it out. Everyone was thrown off their feet, while it dissolved most of the enemies into nothing. Those who were still stupid enough to run at her got blasted while her dragons had also changed into beings more malevolent, letting out purple and black fire, burning everything. April traced over to Elijah. "We have to stop her before she kills everyone." Elijah gulped. "But she seems demonic."April pinned him with a look. "You're just as strong. Come on." She dragged him off to where Scarlet was. April told him what to do.Elijah grabbed a hold of Scarlet's hand and start chanting some words, feeling the energy rolling from her to him. He directed it to the sky, blocking out the moon.Scarlet fell to the ground, then got up quickly, snarling at April and Elijah. She groaned, holding her head, looking

Nikki let out a cry, her sword sliced right through Matthew as if he was made of butter. His body fell to the ground in two halves, and his face now had a peaceful smile as if that was what he wanted all along.Nikki let out another cry.She walked over to where Kera lay and noticed that the hole in her body was getting smaller and smaller.Kera groaned before sitting up. Nikki gasped. "Kera, you're alive, how is that possible?" Kera looked down at her body in shock. "Did Scarlet teach you how to do that?'' Nikki laughed. Kera shook her head still looking at her body. "No, but the crystals she had us plant yesterday worked, so none of us will die." "But what about those who come to fight us?" Nikki asked, helping Kera to her feet."Scarlet only cares about us, not them, and now is not the time for chit-chat. We are in the middle of a war." "Right," Nikki nodded. "Let's go," Kera smiled, and together they ran after some elves, who ran away screaming. ****Elijah was holding his

When they got to the top of the hill, Kera gulped from beside Elijah, who was too engrossed by the strange glow the red moon cast down on them. The place seemed even more sinister than on any other night. The place was also silent and all he could do was wait until the enemies break the line."Do you think Murmalaid would have helped us out in this situation?" Kera asked.Elijah glanced down at her. "No, because things have changed, but even then, I doubt the fates or gods would have let her interfere. There are no more humans to worry about."Kera nodded. "I guess you are right."Scarlet looked over at her brother, giving him a smile because of how brave he was. When she looked back out, she could see the flames that had engulfed parts of the village."It's a good thing we thought of evacuating the village and an even better idea to have our people set up out there."Horatio held her hand."It is a good thing Miley isn't here to see all this. She would be crying by now." Nikki joked,

I sat on the window seat looking outside; I remembered the rain falling hard that day and with it came this horrible feeling I have been feeling for to month now. Selina thought that we should go to the beach. It was her way of trying to cheer me up, but for whatever reason, I didn't want to leave the house, because my mind was telling me that something bad will happen. Selina left me alone after seeing that there was nothing she could do to cheer me up and I went to lie on my bed, thinking that sleep would help. But suddenly there came crashes and screams from downstairs, which I paid no attention to, thinking that it was just someone doing a spell because it was always like that there. We were crazy and always did experiments, so I lay there until a young witch by the name of Cari burst into the room. She was bloody and crying. I looked at her with wide eyes, but before I could go to her, a tall shadow appear in the doorway. The vampire grabbed her by the shoulder, then he bit

Scarlet blinked a few times, only to see that Miley was waving a hand in front of her face. "Are you alright?" Horatio cupped her face in his hands. "Yes, just a memory that had me lost in time." Horatio kissed her and leaned his forehead on hers. Miley came up the hill after. She waited until Horatio moved away before she spoke. "Scarlet, are we still going to have training with you?" Miley asked. Scarlet had a distant look on her face, but she quickly shook it off. "Shouldn't we be training with them, too?" She heard October asking Alistair. "We don't need it," he replied. "Cocky, I like your confidence, vampire, or is it cowardice?" Horatio asked. Gore chuckled. "I can take both of you with my hands behind my back," Alistair told them, then removed his helmet. "Oh there pretty boy, don't want to mess up your hair or get a bruise on your face now, do we?" Horatio mocked. Scarlet glanced at her mate, wondering why he insisted on picking a fight with her vampire. She the

"I don't think this will end well. Some of these guys seem as if they will go at it any moment now," Kate said. And she was right. The tension in the manor was thick, and it wasn't from the pending war. But just from lores being around other lores, they didn't trust. A few more Lores, mostly witches, warlocks, and vampires, had arrived during the time Scarlet was setting up the crystals, which set the wolves on edge and even had a few questioning things. "Are we sure this isn't a setup?" Carmela asked when a warlock who was covered from head to toe in tattoos and piercings walked by her. Kate stared at the man, interested in the iron bars that ran through the bone in his nose, the rings in his brows, and the finger bone that was dangling from his ear. "Yeah, and I don't think I have enough arrow if shit should go sideways. "Don't worry, I don't attack those that are weaker than me." The warlock stopped to say. "Yeah, besides, we are only here because we are excited about the wa
