Chapter 10

A Chapter by Tess

"Jesus! hey don't hit the - to late ." Mist yelled as Jaz rushed down the street, driving Aubreys' blue ford explorer , Jaz just smiled and laughed.

"Seer , this is me driving . I'm trying to save your best friends life as well as my brothers . So if you could try and get another vision to find out which one of em' is in more danger -" Jaz let the sentence dangle.

"What the hell do you mean seer? " Mist was getting quite annoyed .

"Seer . I.e physic , visionary , you can see other places with your minds eye as well as whats going on there. " Gallen said behind her , Mist jumped completely forgeting he was in the seat behind her . Mist was quickly begining to realize that the most danger didn't come from the vampire or the huntress , it came from the sandy blond haired man with two diffrent colored eyes - one pale blue and the other a honey brown - who had boyish good looks, an easy charm , and a silent attitude. Mother always said it was the quiet ones you had to look out for .

"You think ... that i'm.....that i can.....a physic? " Mist questioned, tearing her eyes from Gallens' face.

" Don't think ,sweetheart , We know . " Aubrey said from the passenger side seat . Why is
Gallen sitting behind me if there is no one next to me ?

"What do you mean 'you know?' " Mist asked.

"Look, how do you normally get ideas for your stories?" Jaz bitched.

"I - I dream them up," Mist supplied .

"Then go to sleep , dream , wake up and tell me where the hell my brother is !" Jaz yelled.

"Babe , Calm down I'm sure Verra will be ever so kind to find out where your brother is , how much danger he is in . Then continue to find her friend , and find out how much trouble she is in . As well as finding Gallens' brother and if he is still alright or not." Aubrey said holding Mists' stare.

"Uh yeah , sure. Just stop calling me Verra - I hate that name . " Mist slowed her breathing and before she knew it she was asleep , but what she saw wasn't Melissa and Tommy or Keller and Ash . What she saw was a Raven haired girl with crystal blue eyes in a violet purple gown standing , head drooped down , standing next to a man with green eyes black hair and very tanned skin . Calla and Kaleo . Shackles around both of his and her wrists .

"Melissa , D****t ! Let us go ! " Kaleo yelled . Two pairs of footsteps came running down the stairs .

" What is it now , leech ?"

" Grandchild , why do you do this to me and my love?" Calla whispered .

" You dare to call me Your grandchild , But here you stand the one creature I've vowed to destroy . Standing next to a lover that you used to spite your husband ! "

" I know now that was wrong and therefor i petitioned the fates and they sent me back to right my wrongs , Melissa . And don't you even dare to disapprove of Kaleo - you have a vampiric love yourself . Don't dare to try to hide him i have known for long that you would end with Tomas Blake , brother to the huntress Jazlyn Blake , and sister to your craft. Let us go or else the fates will release their fury on you and your love . " Calla reasoned

"They wouldn't dare ! " Melissa screeched just as Tommy hit the floor from his place behind her . "Tom! Speak to me , c'mon . " She swung her head over to her now forever-young grandmother " What did you do to him ? Stop! Fix him ! " She cried from her place on the floor .

" I cannot tell the fates what to do , however , i suspect that if you let Kaleo and I go Tomas' pain would end - and not by death." Calla Raised her head so she could stare her brown haired heir down . Melissa narrowed her violet eyes , her only link to show she was a shapeshifter of the third house .

"Fine . " She turned towards the whimpering Tommy who lay curled in a ball on her soundproof basement floor " It'll be alright , love . " She stood and walked towards the vampires on her wall and - starting with Kaleo - unlatched the wooden cuffs , and never giving the now free vampire her back , walked towards her grandmother and set her free. Kaleo took Callas' hand and blinked home . Melissa ran towards Tom - who was now standing holding his hand to his head .

" Baby , If you ever go to capture someone who the fates have revived , do me a favor and kill me first . " Tom had aged his body forcefully to the age of seventeen so that he could look as old as he should , but it took a lot of energy to do so and he was about as strong as a noodle-y armed sixth grade girl.

Melissa's cell started to ring - the too-quiet space filled with Trace Adkins' voice singing Honky tonk Badonkadonk : 'hustlers shooting 8-ball throwing darts at the wall feeling damn near 10 feet tall here she comes lord help us all! Ole' teed off his girlfriend, done slapped him out his chair - poor old boy it ain't his fault -' the music was suddenly cut short when Melissa answered her phone.

" Drake. " No 'hello' not ' this is ' just her last name , Tom thought that was sexy as hell. " Aww, Jazlyn. How nice of you to call , I told you once. I'm not ready to let Tomas talk to you." Melissa disconnected the call . Mist woke up .

" Jaz , your brother is fine . They're trying to trick you into beliveing he was kidnapped , they're testing your love for him . So now that that's taken care of lets go save Keller and Ash ."
