Xavier Point of view
We all got in Bruce's van. It was spacious and had enough leg room for the nine of us. Bruce hopped onto the driver's seat, while the hunter was beside him at he front seat. On the first row of seats were Ryder, Linda, Sarah, followed by Christina and I. In the the backseat, Riley and the witch girls occupied that space.
Ryder guided Bruce, giving him the directions to their destination, which happened to be a couple miles away from their starting location. It was convenient as they were in a rush. As the car ride went on, Ryder explained to us about the catastrophe that was about to happen - the world resetting and how it was mom's and Sam's doing. He also mentioned about the realms and the keeper, which lead to the discussion of how his dad wanted to use the keeper's magic. His intentions were to turn time further back in an attempt to get his deceased wife back.
As Rider was explaining these revelations, I felt a sudde
Samantha Point of view Aria and I were switched to another memory. At this point, the memories were completely random. We went through memories of Samira with different people. She was with her neighbors, with her parents, with Linda, and with Xavier's friend whose name I still did not know. And I didn't think of asking because I was wondering about where Rai had been the whole time. Time passed as we went through the memories. Judging by the plants that grew in our neighbor's garden, I would say it has been a month since. I see Samira coming out and Xavier's friend was there, right on time, with a smile on his face. "Ready for another horseback riding?" "You made your point," she replies as she closed the door behind her. "You are way better than me." He gave a cheeky smile and walked by her side. Looking at them now, I would say they looked like a couple. But if you looked closely, you would notice that it was one-
Samantha Point of view I stayed on the ground, staring at Rai's hand until it was clean. Rai then tossed it aside casually. He looked at me and waited. He seemed to be waiting for me to talk, to scream, to run, to do anything, but there was nothing. I blinked once, then twice, then once again. I took a deep breath and tried to speak, only for my voice to come out in a stutter. "Shapeshifter?" I questioned before shaking my head at the thought that I voiced out loud. I reasoned, "No, your hand shapeshifted into a weapon. Shapeshifters usually shapeshift into living things but not objects. So how? How? I don't know anyone who can shapeshift into a weapon." Rai didn't move. He kept his distance from me, knowing that I was frightened, which I considered to be very considerate of him to do. "Can you stand?" I heard him speak, but I wasn't able to understand in that moment. I stammered out, "What?" "Can you get up?" He asked a
Samantha Point of View Aria and I watched as my other self walked away with the boy who claimed to be her mate. Not long after, the scenery began to change. I looked at Aria, waiting for her to confirm what I just saw. Aria nodded and told me, "He is your mate. Ryder was your mate because I was in you and my mate was in him, which basically made you mates. But without me, you would have belonged to someone else. You were someone's mate." It didn't seem that way when I looked at them. With my brows furrowed, I looked at Aria with a puzzled expression on my face. "But she didn't feel anything for him. I thought falling in love with your mate was easy." I said. Aria shook her head lightly at the notion. She then responded, "It's not. Having mates doesn't affect how much you love them. It's like a pull. It just sends signals that the person was chosen to be your mate by the moon goddess herself, but it is our decision to accept them or not.
Samantha Point of view The memory shifted back into the forest. It was similar to the forest where I was attacked, but this time, I wasn't afraid for myself. It was not as frightening since Rai was there with me. As I looked around, I spotted Rai chopping wood , which put a grin on my face. I let out a small, but hearty laugh at the thoughts that went through my mind. "It's funny how it's easier to find you these days." I said with my weight shifted onto one leg. Aware of my presence in the vicinity, he momentarily glanced at me and then rolled his eyes. He turned his attention back to his work right after while he grumbled, "That's cause you're prone to getting yourself in trouble." Slowly and carefully, I made my way down the slope and then went over to where he was. He was chopping off some wood, leaving piles of wood and splinter scattered on the ground. He had his cloak off, revealing parts of his scars visible on the areas of his
Samantha Point of view Memories started to come by faster and faster. One moment we were with Rai then we'd find ourselves with someone else in another. One day, I went to visit him again to bother him some more as he chopped up some more wood. Then another day, when it was a bit more sunny than usual, she brought a hat that she made from scratch and made one for him. He didn't accept it, of course. Then the next memory was me standing over the tree to surprise him. As soon as he was right underneath her, she jumped on him while she laughed. Another memory was when she managed to grab his cloak and run from him. He chased her down and easily caught up with her in a matter of minutes. Then it was the next memory, which was longer than th
Samantha Point of view Another memory flashed where I was in the forest. I was walking in the direction to where Rai usually is at this time but I slowed down. I was in slight pain. I decided to sit down and lift my bottom up and see a long cut on the side of my leg. I laughed nervously and said, "This doesn't look good.""I should have turned around and taken care of this," I said to myself. "Stubborn Samira didn't bother to look and decided to just keep going." I sighed hard. "Now, it's gonna be hard to get back."I assessed the open cut. It wasn't that deep nor was it bleeding a lot. It's the bruise on my knee. I must have fallen pretty hard. I should clean the cut too to avoid getting it infected. I look up and see that I took a long ti
Samantha Point of viewWe were getting closer and closer to the village. As soon as we did, it was already getting dark. The street light began to light themselves up so we could still see through the becoming darkness. Under one of those streetlights, I see my brother worried but as soon as he saw me he frowns.I see him looking at Rai. Rai sees him glaring at him but he doesn't seem to be bothered. He walked over to him and lowered down so I can move off his back. I was about to thank him when Xavier grabbed my arm and pulled me towards him as he glares at Rai.Rai knew what his problem was. His sister was gone the whole afternoon then suddenly seeing a man carrying her on his back was not as innocent as it seems. He looks over to me and says, "Make sure you treat and clean it."Xavier looks at me wondering what he was talking about. Rai leaves and Xavier's attention was fully on me. I sat on the bench near us but still does
Samantha Point of view On the next day, Xavier and I made a deal that I would at least tell my mate the truth. He did deserve that much at least. I changed into my clothes and fixed my hair before coming out of my room. When I did, I see my mother and father in the kitchen talking. They both had smiles on their faces when they see me going out. Mom went around the counter and told dad to get the basket on the table. Dad hurriedly went over to get it and gave it to her. Mom had food prepared and placed carefully into the basket. "Samira, do you what else he likes?" mom asked me but I didn't answer. I just stared at them thinking how much they would be disappointed when I tell them. None of them notice my silence and continued searching for other food to put inside besides bread.
Third point of view"What do you need?" Sarah goes through her cabinets of witchcrafts and herbs she collected over the years. Valerie admired the place and honestly her. She barely has anything witch related at her house and was taught basic spells. Even if Sarah was not a witch, she has everything Valerie wanted. More knowledge about her anscestors and old relics."Just three candles," Tera replies. She went over to valerie to explain the spell to her since she didn't want to exert too much magic thorugh Anna's little body. She also explained to everyone else that silence should be observed and no one should come close until the spell is over. Tera made sure she was absolutely clear while explaining what would happen and notices Snow holding back. She directly asks Snow, "Is there something you need to ask?"Snow flinches as she was caught. She thought of not asking but curiousity got to her. "Why did you agree to do the spell?"
Third point of view"Since Marcus has been using your blood in all his experiments, I can cast a binding spell with your blood." Confusion circled around the room but Sarah understood what she meant."She sayings she can control whoever has the blood of the owner." Sarah explains for the others. "So if she want to turn the owner's blood into acid then others who has the blood in their system will have their blood turned into acid.""So basically if you want to slow them down or hurt them you have to hurt Lily," Liam says."Yes," Tera answers.To which Liam and Leo immediately shut the idea down with two words. "Absolutely not.""What?" Tera says in disbelieve but Tera does have a history of not caring about anyone else in the room."You really think we would let you hurt our sister any longer?""I'll be able to detect when they are close and slow them down," Tera tries to convince.
Third point of view "You do realize your stories get crazier each time you tell it right?" Riley comments after hearing about the deal Samantha made with the Demon. Sam wanted to make sure everyone knew about the Demon inside her in case it ever comes out. She was technically not breaking the deal she made with it since Tera was not in the room with them. "Demons," Xavier exhaled then he flung his arms to his side. "Of course demons are involved in this." He scratches his head with his hand like he was still trying to wrap his head around the idea that basically anything is possible. "Is there anything else we should know about? Genies? Unicorns?" Christina cuts off her mate before he can say anything else with a question, "So she is just sitting there waiting?" "Waiting for w
Third Point of view"You know about the necklace," Sam takes a shaky breath after Tera reveals how much she remembers. "What else do you remember.""Not much," Tera says. She squints her eyes as if she wanted to see if she could remember but she shakes her head. "Something in me just clicked when I saw that necklace. I suddenly remember that damn spell and then nothing. Everything was blank after we did that spell."Sam nodded slowly. "You probably didn't exist when the world was reset just like-," Sam pauses before she could say Linda. She forces herself not to look but she felt like they all needed to know. "Just like Linda.""What?" Linda came into her view. Sam looked up but felt a pang of regret in her chest. Memories and emotions flooded in that moment and her chest ached. The pain she felt, she just wanted to rip it out of her chest and toss it away. She was tired of feeling this pain of losing someone she loves.
Third Person Point of View The group at the shop were waiting patiently for the rest of the group to arrive. As for Snow, she continued to pace around the room. She had her arms crossed infront of her. She brough up her nails to her lips and began to bit them again. "Don't worry," Christina says to her. Snow doesn't look at her but at the door where they should be coming though moments ago. "They should have been here minutes ago," Snow says worriedly. She looks down at her nails and noticed she was bitting her nails again. She immediately dropped her hands and covered her face. She let out a deep sigh then the door swung open. The first one who came through the door was her mate, Blake. He wasted no time and picked up his worried mate in his arms. Snow shrieked in suprise. When she noticed it was Blake, she hugged him back and burried her face in his neck. "Blake, Thank God!" Everyone's attentioned turned to the door to see i
Third Point of ViewAs everyone breathed out in relief for a second, Ryder couldn't help but sense there was going to be something wrong. Judging by Rufus smile that he hasn't wiped off his stupid face, Rai asked, "Why are you smiling at""It is indeed wonderful that nature created supernatural hunters. Strength, speed, and skill are off the mark," Rufus says as his head was still turned to the side. Rai follows where Rufus was looking at. "But there is always a limit to how good you can be."Ryder finally sees what he meant by that."No! Zack!" Sarah cries. Everyone looks over and sees Zack passed out. Sarah reaches his sides and shows everybody blood on his shirt. "The poison!" She laid him down on the ground. Everyone's attention was back on the hunter as they began to mo
Third Point of view "What do you want?" Sam asks again. Lily leaned towards them but Leo blocked her with his arm. Leo's eyes never left the blade that was right on top of his brother's flesh. One cut and his twin dies. Lily grips Leo's arm in fear for Liam. Liam on the other hand does not feel fear. Only sadness and anger every time he looks at his father's face. "An explanation really. I hate being the pawn that knows nothing." Rufus was smart. Ryder knew that. He wasn't the type to believe what people say too easily. Even if it's from his own father. "An explanation of what?" Zack questions. Rufus does not look away from Samantha. "How are you the reason why the world was reset." Rufus played with his swo
Everyone was frozen in shock except for Zack, Ryder, and Samira. Rufus looks amused with their expressions. He always loved the emotion he could force out of people. His psychotic ego being boosted with every second.Sam knew that Lily's parents died, so she can almost feel how startled she was to be seeing her dad. Not only alive and healthy but on the side of Rufus and is currently trying to kill us. The man did not move. Just as he was ordered to.Lily's dad showed no familiarity with his own children. Not even for Bruce who was staring in fear and pained expression. No one Sam and Ryder don't know how Bruce could know the man but Zack may have an idea of who he is.Liam and Leo couldn't believe it. They both knew that their father died. They saw it. They even buri
Third Point of viewSam never told Rufus how she died. She didn't plan on telling anyone yet. Everyone was still confused about how her death was important but let it slide for now because their focus was to get Marcus. Kill Marcus and hopefully they won't have anybody else killing them this month.Rufus was moved to the pole nearest to the pole minutes ago because Rufus was getting into everyone's skins. "If you never plan to tell how you died then please kill me," he yells loud enough for us to hear him across the room. "You are wasting valuable time.""You know we can't kill you yet," Zack yells back."At this rate of boredom, you just might," Rufus grunts as he began kicking the wall.
