"Hello dear."

It was that thing, and it looked like my mother. I could tell it wasn't her, because it looked like it hadn't slept in days. Mom would never loose sleep especially when we were on vacation. She loved getting sleep. She always said 'sleep was the body's fuel.'

"What are you doing here, as my mother?"

"Oh, dear, you've noticed I'm not truly mother dearest I see, well, I'm not surprised," it said. So it wasn't mad that I knew? Arthur said not to provoke it.

"So, what are you doing here this late in the potions lab?"

"Well, I just, wanted to see what you study here, you know, in case I need to be on the lookout for any kind of magic potion that might banish me for good, can't have that, now can we," it said. So it didn't want any possible chance of being killed? Hmm.

"What makes you think we know how to kill you?"

"Well I know you don't know what I am, but Arthur does, and so does Ashton, and they know how I can be killed, but we can't have that," it said coming closer.

"But since you caught me, I guess I'll have to do what is needed," it said. It had a bottle of green powder. Sleeping powder. It didn't want to kill me, just put me to sleep? So it did need me for something. Well I can't say I was to surprised.

"Wait, I think I can solve both of our problems," I said. It stopped in its track. I began to chant in my head to open a small black hole. Something that would send it away for a few minutes. And then it would be back. The thing was still looking at me.

"What are you doing!?"

The black hole began to form behind it. It looked around and it's eyes widened. I made a move and kicked it in the back, sending it through the black hole. I had 3-5 minutes tops.

I needed to look for clues as to what kills this thing but I didn't have time. I had to get out of here before it came back. I ran out of the potions lab and through the hallway. My feet at vampire pace. I started feeling weak and began to slow at a human pace. This wasn't good. I reached the outside but my speed was to slow. I knew I didn't have enough time to run back to my dorm. This thing would be pissed off. So I didn't the only thing I could think of.

"ARTHUR!"

I yelled. I looked around for somewhere to hide. Something that would throw this thing off. I couldn't see anything. The wolves noticed me screaming and the tan from their posts to meet me. But before they got to me, that thing came back and it looked a lot like Me! It was going to confuse people! It wanted everyone to think it was me.

"Oh, now you've done it," it said. It raised its hand up but seen the wolves and put its hands down to its side. It began to ask for help. As if I were the imposter. It wore my pajamas so there wasn't a difference. Arthur and Hunter both ran outside and spotted us. They came to us but looked confused. Smell us!

"Hunter, wolves just smell us, you'll tell a difference," I said. It laughed.

"Are you kidding, it can mask its smell, Hunter please, she's the imposter," it said. But it was right. It smelled like me now. So it could mask its smell? But it didn't before. But with me it did.

"Hunter I'm not liking these odds," Arthur said. I looked at him in fear.

"Please ASHTON HELP," I yelled. In a few seconds him and Lucy joined us. As did Lucian. He knew the real me.

"She's real," Lucian said pointing to me.

"Oh please, what does the angel know of fake or real, he was cast out of heaven for loving a hybrid, and then the laws changed," it said. And there it was, the proof they needed. Hunter grabbed it by the arms and Arthur chanted a binding spell to hold it.

"Now, we will get the truth out of you, trickster," he said. Wait a second? It's a trickster?

"As in the god of mischief, Loki?"

"Yes, he was banished from heaven, for tricking mere mortals, and now he wants to take you as his queen, with you by his side, he can get away with it, because prophecies can be written for you and you alone, you can now write your own," Arthur said. Oh my gods!

"He was going to enslave me to write his prophecies so that he could use me for his evil deeds?"

"Well now, evil no, but they were pretty sneaky," it said. I wanted to see what he really looked like.

"Show us your true form," I said. He laughed.

"He bound me dear, I can't," he said. Arthur stepped forward.

"But I can."

He began chanting and placed a hand on Lokis head. His form began to change. He looked uncomfortable with the change. Since he wasn't changing himself it must've been hard for him. Arthur continued to chant until Loki finally changed back to himself. He had black mid length hair, pale skin and blue ice eyes. His face was perfectly chiseled. He was beautiful. I could see why women would adore him. He wore black leather pants and a vest that was of the same material.

"Oh my goodness," I said out loud. Arthur looked at me.

"Well, it looks like someone is enjoying the view a little to much, cousin," Loki said mocking Arthur.

"Don't worry, I could say the same, she's a fine piece of meat," he said. Arthur came closer to him. I had never seen Arthur this angry before. He grabbed Loki by the hair on his head.

"You will not speak about her that way," Arthur said. I looked from Loki to Author. So now we were dealing with gods. And I couldn't think anymore.

"Okay, what are we going to do about Loki," I asked. He smiled at me.

"She even says my name beautifully," he said. I rolled my eyes. Arthur looked at me.

"What do you want to do with him," He asked me.

"Lock him in the dungeon."
