We were running, dodging blue flame after blue flame. Apparently there's a lot more of Michael's clan then we thought.
"Guys I'm gonna pass out if we don't stop soon.." Luke said gasping as yet another flame brushed past us.
"No time to stop blondie, we need to get that scepter back before Michael shows up." Calum replied.
The altar was in sight and the adrenaline rush made me move faster then I thought possible. A blast from right in front of us sent us on our butts.
I groaned and checked to see if everyone was ok, but when I looked. Calum and Luke weren't with me.
"Cal ? Luke ?" I shouted, I struggled to get up but I lost my balance and fell again.
"Calum ?" I tried again. "Luke ? Where are you ?"
"Well look who it is."
I turned around and immediately scooted backwards. Michael stood only a few feet from me.
"Where are they ?" I demanded. "What have you done to them ?"
Michael chuckled stepping closer to me.
"Gone." Michael said. "It's just you and me now sweetheart."
Calum's POV
"Calum !"
"Calum ?"
"Calum WAKE UP !"
I groaned as I felt a sharp pain on my face. My vision cleared and Luke was leaning over me. What the hell happened ?
"What happened... where are we ?" I asked confused, wait where was Hailey ?
"I don't know, all I remember is me, you and Hailey rushing towards that altar thing and white light.." Luke replied. "Where's Hailey ?"
"Hailey ?" I shouted.
"Hailey ?" Luke shouted.
Where did she go ? Oh no... could Michael have.. No. No ! Can't think like that.
We heard footsteps rushing towards us and soon we were surrounded by Ashton and Kaden.
"Cal, Luke. What happened ? Where's Hailey ?" Ashton asked as he and Kaden helped us up.
"We were hit by something and all I can remember is us falling back.." I replied. "Where are we anyways ?"
"A few miles from where you should be." Ashton stated. "We need to find Hailey, she has the scepter and Michael and his goons got past us."
"We need to hurry." Kaden said. "My Dad said if they get to Hailey before she gets the scepter in place, bad things can happen."
We rushed out back towards the altar and hoped we weren't too late.
Hailey's POV
"Let go of me !" I yelled, Michael was dragging me by my now bound wrists towards the altar.
"You're not going anywhere sweetheart." He replied. "At least not until you activate our plan."
He drags me a few feet further and pushes me down on the steps of the altar.
"I'll never help you." I spat.
Michael chuckled, a blue ball forming in his hand.
"You act as if I'm giving you a choice." He smirked, the blue flame narrowly misses me as I dodge it.
He snaps his fingers and his two henchmen drag my parents into view. Oh no...
"You either do what we say or my friends will kill your parents." Michael sneered.
"Don't do it baby." Dad pleaded and one of his henchmen hit him with a rod.
"Now, do it." He demanded. "Or do you need some coaxing ?"
When I just stare, he snaps his fingers and the one holding my mom pulls out a knife and holds it to her throat.
"Alright." I said. "I'll do it. Just don't hurt them."
Michael smirked as he held up his hand and the man lowered the knife.
"Don't do it hunny !" My Mom pleaded. "It's a trap !"
"Get them out of here." Michael stated, he looked at as he came to release my wrists. "Now if you want to see them again, pull out the scepter."
I glared at him and shut my eyes as I called to release the scepter from its cloak. I could feel it slowly land in my hand. I opened my eyes and could feel the power draw into me.
"Now call it's powers to you and release it." He told me.
Am I really doing this ? Am I going to betray everyone for the sake of saving my family ?
"Do it !" Michael shouted and I knew I had to.
I shut my eyes and call to the power, flashbacks of my ancestor attracting the power to her pops in my head as I feel the power come towards me.
"Stop !"
I open my eyes and see a ball of light hit Michael, sending him flying against a tree. Ashton and Calum come rushing out from the trees.
"Hailey !" Calum shouted. "Shut it off before it's too late !"
I try to as Michael and Ashton go at it but the power is going out of control, just like in my vision..
"It's too late." Michael said smirking. "She can't stop it now."
They start trading blue flames, both seeming to be just as powerful.
"That's what you think." Ashton spat back. "You underestimate her, you'll get burnt."
The blue flame hit Michael, knocking him unconscious. I fought the power surging through my veins and fought my way to the middle of the altar.
"You can do it Hailey !" Calum cheered. "Your almost there !"
"Honey I believe in you !"
I turned and my parents were also cheering me on, beside their feet were the other 2 coven members out cold.
I fought the urge to let it course through me and slam the scepter into place, the blinding light sends me flying against the wall. The power flashes and then slowly dissipated.
My vision cleared again and the scepter was once again quiet.
"Hailey !"
I got up gently and walked off the altar,falling into Calum's arms.
"You did it." He smiled and I just kissed him.
Kaden and Luke sighed in relief, dropping their weapons as they slumped against a couple trees. My parents and Ashton walked up to us smiling.
"You alright pumpkin ?" My Dad asked me, I just went up to hug them.
"Yeah." I smiled. "I think I'll be ok."
"Guys, look." Calum said and we looked to where he was pointing.
Michael and his goons were gone. But at that point I didn't care, the scepter was no longer a threat.
"Typical of Michael to run with his tail between his legs." Ashton scoffed. "Should I go after them ?"
"No. I think we won't have to worry about them anymore." My Dad stated. "Their only leverage was that scepter, now they have nothing."
The rustling of the trees startled us, Kaden grabbed his weapon but lowered it when he saw it was the wolf packs leader.
"I see you defeated the coven." Don the leader of the pack said. "Looks like we aligned with the right people."
"Hell yeah you did." My Dad said.
I smiled and leaned into Calum, we all looked roughed up. But we came here and we did what we came here to do.
"So what now ?" Luke asked looking at us all.
"We get the hell out of here and get a nice drink." Ashton said.
We all agreed, it was finally over. But was it really ?
