“Well let’s cross that bridge when we get there.” Carlos said before Marcus could. “I think it’s best we just wait this out and see what Victor is going to do. He might not make a move and then I think you should go on the run, it’s the only way.’ He said shaking his head.“Yeah thanks.” Anabel said shaking her head. “I didn’t want to run, I already told you I wanted to find somewhere nice and live my life out. I am not going to go on the run and hope he never finds me, it’s time that I stand up.” She said looking at Marcus. “I need to free us entirely of Victor.” She said folding her arms across her chest.“You cant.” Marcus growled. “I told you we are going to be his slaves forever.” He said folding his arms. “As soon as you realize that, I think this is going to get easier on each of us.” He said closing his eyes. “I wish we could get out of his hold, but I’ve been looking for a way out longer then you three have been alive.”“I don’t care, we’re going to find a way out of this.” A
“Can you both be quiet?” Misty growled. “You guys can go back to fighting once we’re done here.” She said shaking her head. “We have to get Anabel out of this mess, and I am not sure how.” She said looking down at her book. “I mean we could keep doing the spell, it doesn’t say that it doesn’t work after a while, but I am not sure that is going to work for long.”“Don’t worry about it Misty, we will take him on when we take him on.” Carlos said getting up from the couch. “I just wish he would have messed with me when I had an attitude, and when I didn’t care anymore.” He said swinging him arms. “Now I think about everything I do, and it makes me mad.” He said turning to face the group.“Relax Carlos, we will figure this out.” Anabel said coming into view. “I don’t want to stress about this.” She said rubbing her eyes. “If Victor wants a war, why don’t we give him one and make him pay for this.” She said looking at Marcus. “I am going to find your soul, and I am going to make sure it ge
“Well I can get you some punch if you want.” He said looking down at her. “You remember Victor said it would help with this kind of stuff.”“I guess.” She said shaking her head. “I mean I don’t really know if it’s going to work, or if it’s something that is going to make me weaker and then make me kill someone.” She said closing her eyes. “I just want him dead already, or I want us to be somewhere.”“Me too.” He said shaking his head. “Soon it’s going to be that way, you just have to wait a little bit. Your Angel friends are trying to get things together, but they are having some issues, I feel like Victor is getting ready to attack, and we’re not going to be ready.” He said taking a deep breath. “I mean you and I are going to have to leave, we cannot chance your friends or a war breaking out."“Fine.” She said getting out of bed. “I think we should get some clothes and then we should leave.” She said looking at him. “I don’t think we should tell them we’re leaving, I know they are go
“Lay her there.” Michael said looking at Marcus. Marcus laid her down, Michael looked her over. “That is bleeding pretty badly.” He said touching it. “I don’t know if we’re going to be able to save her I am sorry.” He said trying to heal it, he was only able to slow the bleeding down.“So this is it?” Marcus said looking down at Anabel. “I get to watch her die again, I get to watch Victor take someone else from me.” He said wanting to cry, but he knew he wasn’t able to.“I am not sure what we can do Marcus.” Michael said shaking his head. “If she was a demon this wouldn’t be like this, but she knew this when she took on Victor.” He said trying to heal her again, but it wasn’t working.“I don’t think you’re going to be able to heal her after this.” Marcus said taking her hand. “I know Hecta is trying to heal her, but I have a feeling she is far too weak to do such a thing.” He said looking up at Michael. “Just keep trying, she is dies then we know she wasn’t supposed to make it through
Carlos didn’t say anything, he wanted to continue to yell at Anabel, but he knew it wouldn’t do any good and he would just make her want to run even more. Carlos sat down at the table and watched Anabel, he could see she was thinking really hard. He wanted to touch hand, and tell her everything was going to be okay, but he didn’t know if it really was this time.Taking a deep breath, he got out of his chair and walked out of the kitchen, he still wanted some time to think, he even wanted to turn himself over to Victor to see if he would spare her life.“Please don’t worry about me Carlos.” Anabel said walking out onto the front porch. “I know what you think about me, and that’s okay.”“Do you really know what I think about you?” Carlos said shaking his head. “I’ve been looking for you all this time, and you seem to think I don’t care about you.” He said looking at her. “I’ve been tearing my heart to pieces trying to see if there was a way to please you, so you want to stay here with u
Anabel wasn’t sure what to say. She didn’t want to lose her life at all, she wanted to fight Victor. She knew she could kill him, but she also knew she would lose her life in the end. “I have to do what I have to do.” She said shaking her head. “I don’t think I am outmatched because he made sure our souls were bound.”“So you are saying you are as strong as Victor?” Jim said looking at him.“Yes.” Anabel said shaking her head “The only way he can be killed is if I kill him.” She said taking a deep breath.“Well that makes me feel a lot better.” Jim said shaking his head. “Finally someone that can hurt him enough that he wont want to come back here.” He said half smiling. “Maybe I should get the Elders to help us, I know they are tired of Victor as well.”“No I rather not.” Anabel said shaking her head. “I don’t want Victor to know I am here.” She said shaking her head. “Please you are just going to put yourself in danger if you tell anyone that I am here.”“Well alright.” Jim said loo
“I don’t know Marcus, Carlos always wants to get in the way of things, he is the reason I wasn’t found in time, and all the stuff you did to me was done.” She said looking away from him. “Don’t worry I don’t hold anything against you, I just want to feel like I matter again.”“Anabel you do matter at least to me.” Marcus said kissing her. “I know you think I am lying and that I will turn you over to Victor, but I promise I wont.”“Can we get out of here?” Anabel said looking at the bodies in the chair. “I think I am going to be sick if we don’t leave.” She said walking to the door. She put her hood on and waited for Marcus.Marcus walked out to the town, the rain clouds settled in, but the rain didn’t come. ‘I don’t know if we are going to be safe here.” Marcus said wrapping his arm around Anabel. “We better get out of here.”“No Marcus we need to lay low, the less we use our magic the less he knows where we are.” Anabel said shaking her head.Marcus wrinkled his nose. “Fine we can pl
Anabel rubbed her neck, she didn’t want to give into anyone. She would fight Victor even harder than she did Marcus. She always felt close to Marcus for whatever reason, she knew he wouldn’t kill her just to make a point. Victor on the other hand would kill her, and he would enjoy it a lot more then she would.Closing her eyes, she needed to make a new plan. She would have to figure out a way to Marcus, get them out of the realm, and close the next one so Victor couldn’t follow them through, and if he did, then they would have to move to the next one. They would run until Victor had lost them.“Don’t be thinking too hard Anabel.” Victor said walking back into the room. “Don’t worry I am going to bring Marcus here to make you happy, but first I want him to get hurt a little, I mean he continues to betray me, so I have no other choice but to do it to him.”“Oh you have choices.” She said shaking her head.“So you’re saying I could either kill him now or later right?” he said kneeling do
