The voice was filled with so much fear, and plea that it stood the paws of wolves; ears of faery, and the soul of the brooding white witch—the voice of the crying pierced through the night and pooled on the heart of Alice. Waking her up from sleep, she ran at an insane speed. An angry Alice in motion was surprised at how fast her legs carried her and how weightless she seemed. She was practically floating on air. She felt a bizarre surge of adrenaline pop through her veins and even though she wanted it to stop, she couldn't control it. It was dusk and only the whisperers of the night were seen hovering because according to them, the last seed of their nemesis had been uprooted. A loud frightening belly laughter reputed behind Alice, cutting through the silence of the night and the serenity it provided. It sounded so close.

She was certain there were burn marks on her body before her father brought her home and even after that how did the burns suddenly disappear? Her father had told her the lot he knew about her essence but still, Alice had questions that only the mouthpiece of the Oracle could answer. She had gone to the priest, the bridge between the mortals and their supreme being to get answers to her questions."The path you seek can only be made clear to she that sought it" the priest sang in a ritual song to her. "What do you mean, great one?""I don't have the answers to the questions you seek. But I can take you to a place to get the answers" the priest responded. "But you must be willing and ready" the priest added."I'm ready," Alice said defiantly. "Then, I must warn you. The journey you are set to embark on is a tricky one. You be careful with home to trust even in the spirit world. Recklessness and ignorance are t
AliceI had noticed earlier the creeping feeling of being Followed on Monday an act which I found most annoying to shake off having taken the long route home that night felt like a bad idea on it's own, with how late it was she regretted the extra time she spent at the library only because the last bus for the night had already passed through the station for the night.That meant one thing for her. She now had to trek to her home a total of thirty minutes. Would not kill her but being "the pessimist" she is she expected everything to go wrong after all weird things had been happening after mummy dearest paid her a visit. the hair iron going up in flames after it burned her hand and she had said in her words She wished the iron would go up in flames damn iron!Or the car door slamming her dad in after she had wished him a Terrible day for not allowing her go to a party at her school.

Alice “How dare you?” she spat you shall all pay for doing this she rose up with her hands in the air she casted her first spell “ sabtagos min paria” a storm like cloud formed around them understanding the spell and it’s significance Alice casted a spell at the nick if time “Recardonez un raptez “ dust like cloud covered the clouds as they turned to dust and where returned back to camp things did not turn out as hoped they all knew it the from faces of all the warriors where something to look by on she has failed her coven her clan and her people she needed so time alone to herself a moment to think of what next to do Lena was now a new witch with an agenda for revenge a new witch was dangerous on their own without a reason for control they where practically unstoppable, now Lena was one of those thriving in her new powers she would continue from where her mother stopped who knows even extend her hands to the rest of the realms facing Sabrina was one thing she was evil she killed t
“Alice… Alice!, are you in there my dear it has been but a while since the rain stopped and you have been in your room all morning dear” Mr. Gerald spoke knocking once more for Alice“Yes father, I shall come out soon” Alice replied dashing off to her window she could see that the sun was finally out to play sighing with content she walked to her dresser picking up her cloak, a pouch of hidden spices and her mother’s spell book she walked into the kitchen her father as always was carving some sort of wood into something different he called it his own masterpiece…”father I shall head out to the fields I will be back soonest, once I return I shall be leaving at dawn papa I need to go back to my troops another war is coming and I would not want to be unprepared “she spoke “Return first my dear “ Mr. Gerald replied absent minded Taking up her boots Alice walked out and headed towards the fields a simple spell would have gotten her there faster but on a day like today walking was the sol
It was over it was finally over the long war had been put to an end everything would return to normal after this Alice chanted in her heart as the spell broke and she was released from Albert’s body he coiled at the far end of the forest it seemed it took a lot out of him he had helped although last minute he had come through for them releasing control to a person not more the creatures you dislike Emelia changed her form and rushed of to her mate, tears flowing down her cheeks in quick successions unto Lucas she held unto him tighter Alice looked away for she could not bear to recount how many wars she had lost, gathering her bag she walked deeper into the forest, it would take a while before all the realm heard of the battle that occurred so she would be fine for even a few hours sitting at an empty spot where dead flowers were scattered around, she wept for everything she had overcome staying at the spot with her head in her arms she calmed herself, suddenly she heard someone clear
“So you where the one after all” Alice spoke“How?? Did you know…what??” Albert asked in shame at his cover been blown “ I might be clueless to a lot of things but I am not shallow did you think I would believe that the monster was only one the LANTROPAC are a group of demons who travel in groups of ten or more you must imagine how surprised I was to find out that only one had been there pure instance you might say I also belied that too not until I took a walk down the forest to grab some herbs then I realized it but suspicion with proof was worthless so I gathered enough your nonchalance to blood although being a creature yourself the glee of pleasure every time battle arose as though you were ready for a kill but never truly fighting and cowering in what I would pretend to say is mock elusiveness you are not as elusive as you think dear Albert in a while kingdom and only one survives, of course, they choose to save their king as they all perish and he worries not for them for if h
“I can manipulate the mind and a few will agree that I can read the past as well a little bit of resistance to it would cause some discomfort and I must admit it has been a while since any mind gave me a struggle it is nice to have a little challenge ever now and then, now on to business at dawn you shall depart west the truth you serk us there or at least a guide wouldn't you say so Albert you are after all from the west realm" she replied while biting on some pie.“we shall head north as instructed we hope to trust your words” Alice spoke. In conviction with a silent nod at the table they broke bread eating in silence .Alice knew the danger she gas decided to embark on lena had powers in the north most of her demons dwelled north they would have to fight tooth and nail if they are to ever reach the north. She would not allow her win sighing in displeasure at Albert she groaned he had not been if much help you them so far in fact if they where to be honest he was more cowardly and
Alice arrived at the first destination which was a small carven, a bar to be more exact with a long sigh the gang went in. It looked like the typical inn creatures drunk out of their mind with several long mugs making said perverting remarks at the female who served them drinks yes it was the typical stop place looking around for an empty table they found one at the far end of the inn all nodding in agreement they took a slow stride to the table taking their sits they got to it. ”so far they have been no suspicious movement this looks to be the typical inn but open your eyes closer boys at the far end it seems only a few creatures are using that door and the giant at the front door why was he positioned at the door everything coming from that part looks suspicious.” Emelia raved “ I believe we should send two solders to check the back so as to camp out on and map out the area” Lucas added Alice replied this new piece of information with a nod two warriors immediately stood up and w
