"Hey! Super-sized bitch!" Karl bellows upon giving the doors a hard shove.

"I have a name, Heisenberg, and if you wish for an appropriate response you'll have to address me in the appropriate manner." Alcina calmly answers.

"There's no time for addressing one another appropriately. Tell me this is just another stupid rumour."

"It is not a rumour."

"You're lying."

She sighs and rolls her eyes. "If you don't believe me, what's the use in coming all this way to ask?"

"Why is she coming here?" He grits.

"Because you foolishly let the mortal slip through your fingers."

"So this is all my fault?"

"I'm so glad to hear you admit it." She smooths her dress and rises from the armchair by the fireplace. "Maybe it will make this pass by a little sooner."

"Could you stop being a ginormous bitch for one second? We're screwed."

"We?"

"Sorry, are you having trouble hearing me with your head in the clouds?" He climbs up onto the furniture and she shakes her head, rubbing her temples to relieve the headache he is encouraging.

"I just had everything cleaned."

"We're screwed!"

"My home was spotless before you trudged in here like the lazy fool you are."

"Are you even listening?" He yells in her blank face.

"Oh, stop being so dramatic. You're only being like this because she intimidates you, and that is because she is powerful. Unlike you."

"I won't be the only one getting thrown into the deep end, you'll be right behind me. We both failed. We are therefore, both, royally screwed in more ways than we can imagine!"

"Correct." Your voice has their heads snapping to the side. As you take slow strides into the castle, Karl swiftly climbs down and adjusts his coat while Alcina elegantly places a hand on her hip.

"We welcome you, Your Highness." She greets with a smile.

"I hear Moreau and Beneviento let the human escape with his life. Two of the four Lords overpowered and defeated by a mortal. You can imagine this has caused quite a number of...complications."

"Ethan Winters will not escape me." Heisenberg sneers. Alcina clears her throat. "Or her." The vampire rolls her golden eyes.

"You seem confident."

"I always am."

"So were Donna and Salvatore. Before they were killed and reduced to dust."

He nervously chuckles. "Unfortunate for them. But I can assure you, he will not slip through our fingers like he did our brother and sister."

You faintly smirk. "Tell me, how could you assure me that you won't fail like the others. Allow me to remind you that if you both fail, the responsibility then falls into my hands, and while I am more than capable of disposing of this Ethan Winters myself, I would much prefer to entrust his demise to you. A human killing all four Lords? We cannot let that happen."

"I have an army." Heisenberg returns smugly. "I have an entire army on my side that is growing everyday. If he somehow stands against my creations and lives, he'll have me to deal with and we both know what I'm capable of."

Your chin raises at the smugness in his tone. Lightly smiling to yourself, you trace your fingers over your lace gloves. "You are just begging for someone to put you in your place, aren't you." Alcina muffles a snort by bringing a hand to her mouth.

"You think you could handle that?" He chuckles incredulously. "You're cute, really you are, but I could have you on your knees in a heartbeat. Come to think of it I might just make that happen. I think it'd be a good look for you."

"You think about that image a lot?"

"What?" He glances at the vampire for help but she looks away with a smirk. "No," he scoffs. "Don't flatter yourself."

You hum lightly, catching the delicate blush that spreads across his cheeks. Almost missable in the dim orange light pooling from the flames, but your eyes catch every little detail.

"[Y/n], dear, I can assure you he will not escape me or my idiot brother here." Alcina manages to speak after composing herself. "My daughters are more than eager to get their hands on him. Both you and Mother Miranda have nothing to fear."

"Well, now that I have heard from both of you, I admit I am a little more optimistic. You were more convincing than your brother."

"Given that Heisenberg is only a child, I would expect as such."

"Call me a child again." He growls once his hammer flies into his open hand. "Go on, I dare you! I'll show you a child-"

"Enough!"

The hammer then lands in your outstretched hand and the couple become deadly silent, bowing their heads a little.

"Now it is less of a mystery as to how Winters has survived this long. You are all acting like children! You have a job to do. Mother Miranda called on me to make sure you don't mess this up like the others, and it will not be my head that gets torn off next. Find the mortal and kill him before he ruins everything for us!"

"Yes, Your Highness." They murmur.

First you take a deep breath, taking the time to collect yourself before stepping closer, effortlessly swinging the hammer to let Heisenberg take it from your grasp.

"Get it done."

"Will those thoughts of mine become a reality if I do?"

"Not in a million years." You arch your brow.

As you strut away, the sisters materialise beside their mother with fading smiles. A flick of your hand has the doors banging open to grant you passage, slamming themselves behind you once you descend the stairs.

"We missed her." Cassandra pouts.

"We never get to spend any time with her."

"She's so hot," Bela sighs.

"Don't worry daughters, I'm sure once your uncle inevitably ruins things for us she will return." The sisters grin widely and Karl gives a sarcastic smile.

"Funny."
