STUCK (Tate Langdon x Y/N)

annihilation

"I don't know what's going on." Mallory said.

"Bad news, bitch. You're back from the dead." Madison replied.

"I'm what?" Mallory said, looking confused.

"Just breathe deeply. You need time to get your bearings." Cordelia looked at the three of them kindly.

"Poor dear," Myrtle added, "to be raised up and released from and Identity spell at the same moment."

Coco stood up looking angry.

"I cannot believe Brock shoved a knife through my head. That fucking bastard better hope he's dead."

"Who the hell is Brock?" I asked.

"Wow. She's by far the weakest among us and seems to be handling it the best." Madison raised her voice.

Madison and Myrtle had a small bicker and then Mallory stood up.

"Can someone please tell me what's going on?" Mallory asked, "What do you mean Identity spell?"

"We placed it on you for your protection," Cordelia explained, "Coco, too. It kept you from knowing your true self. Because you're special, Mallory. And we need you. We need all of you."

"You're on your own with that shit." Dinah disagreed, "I made a billion dollars in TV and all I did was straddle the fence. I'm sure as hell not dropping that strategy here, sisters. I haven't promised anything, I haven't signed anything. And I'm not here to defeat anyone."

"Who cares?" Madison demeaned, "As if you could ever defeat anyone with that backwards voodoo shit."

"How can any of you defeat me?"

I turned suddenly to see Ms. Mead, Lois and Michael standing at the top of the stairs.

"When I've already won."

"You haven't won." Cordelia shouted.

"Perhaps you haven't noticed the state of the world." Michael smiled.

"It's almost as bad as your dinner jacket, but at least the world can be saved." Myrtle snapped back.

"By you?" Michael sneered.

"By all of us." Cordelia responded.

"Hey. Get the wax out of your ears I'm here to watch." Dinah informed us.

"But I'm not." Coco stepped forward, "Just don't let me die again, okay? It really sucked the first time."

Cordelia put her hand in front of Coco, telling her to stand down.

"When I'm done," Michael threatened, "you'll all wish you were still dead."

"I always thought the world would end with fire and ice, not witches and warlocks." Myrtle smiled.

"The seventh seal has been broken, Wormwood has fallen from the sky and turned rivers into blood and fire. The bottomless pit has been opened and my swarm of locusts and scorpions have ravaged humanity. The world has been remade in my fathers image." Michael explained.

"Darling..." I smiled, "it seems Daddy didn't tell you the most important rule of bringing on the apocalypse. If you want to finish the job the thing you have to do is get rid of all the witches."

"Big mistake." Coco added.

"I could annihilate you all in a second and the world would go on without missing a beat. You and all of your work will be forgotten in the rubble of the past, but I want to give you a future." Michael informed.
