You strolled behind Myrtle into the greenhouse, endlessly questioning the possibilities of this supposed 'gift'. Soon enough you'd been waiting 5 minutes, nervously shaking your leg as Myrtle plays her theremin, the same one she never seemed to be without.
Y/N: Uh, Myrtle... What was this thing you had to give me?
She looks up slightly bewildered.
Myrtle: Ah, Y/N, my apologies I'd forgotten you were here... I have something for you
She hands you a small leathery object, you go to open it but the red-head stops you.
Myrtle: Good God Y/N don't look at it! You'll be blinded by the sheer craftsmanship
You look to your spiritual aunt and maintain a look of confusion as she smiles at you proudly, blossoming in your confusion.
Y/N: Right, cos what else would it do... So it blinds me, it's well crafted... What is it?
Myrtle: My only possession of value, a sapphire and topaz harvester ant made for me by Joel Arthur Rosenthal, the Faberge of our time.
You continue to inspect the object.
Myrtle: The harvester ant is one of the most venomous creatures in the world-
Y/N: Probably just below Fiona...
Myrtle: Certainly below your grandmother yes
Y/N: So am I supposed to wear this?
Myrtle: Of course not, you're stylish but you could never pull it off dear, now listen to me carefully, I want you to hock it in case of emergency
You scoff in utter bemusement
Y/N: I'm real lost here Myrtle
Myrtle: You're leaving the coven Y/N, and you're leaving Madison behind...
You stay silent for a minute staring at Myrtle, any satirical scoffs and smirks dissipating as her serious tone strikes you.
Y/N: W-What the hell did you just say?
Myrtle: I've watched your time with Madison and seen you grow to be truly happy for the first time since you came into this world... Saying this is one of the hardest things I've ever done, but you must get out of the danger of this world... our world, and leave her behind
You stare at her stunned by the request.
Y/N: I love Madison, Myrtle. She loves me. What am I gonna do if I leave here? Go back to doing jack shit all across the world. You said it yourself, for the first time in my life I'm happy, hell I even think I've made her happy, I can fend for myself, I think I've proven that... I'm not going, I'm not leaving you all to fight without me and I'm sure as hell not leaving the love of my life-
Myrtle: If you stay here you are in grave danger!
Y/N: In what way, exactly?
She looks at you hesitantly, not wanting to say the next words coming from her mouth.
Myrtle: Madison is the most dangerous young witch I've seen since your grandmother killed her way to supremacy, I know how happy she makes you but she isn't good for you, one wrong move and bam, your throat is slit because you had the nerve to look at another woman. You're young and in love and I'm sure this is hard to hear, but with all the risks to your life in this world, the added stress of keeping Madison happy will only cause you to sink into another depression
You had nothing to say, you simply stood, entirely still, listening to one of the people you trusted most tell you it was best for you to abandon the one person you would do anything for, the one person who made life worth living. The elder witch reaches down to plant pot.
Myrtle: Take this ticket to Epcot and my JAR jewels and pack your bags, you'll have enough money to live a good life in Florida-
Y/N: I'm not going. Simple as. Madison is not fucking dangerous, I love that woman and I will till I die, whether that's in 70 years or a month, I'm gonna fight with the coven. My coven. And I'm gonna stay with the girl I love, I'm sorry if she's dangerous for you but she's the only thing I need... Sorry Myrtle but it's a no
You turn to leave the room but stop in shell shock as the ginger's voice rings out with horrifying words.
Myrtle: It's been a whole day since you last spoke to Madison, Y/N... A lot can change in that time, people can be convinced, and maybe, just maybe, your oh so perfect little girlfriend has already abandoned you... All it took was a couple hours convincing from her sisters.
You turn slowly. Confusion etching itself on your face as you attempt to grasp understanding of what she's saying.
Y/N: W-What?
Myrtle: Did you not think it was weird she hadn't come to see you since last night? She's already gone Y/N, we told her you'd left her whilst you slept next to Cordelia this morning... I feel horrible doing this Y/N but it's for your own good, for the coven's good, without her we can all thrive
You gingerly collapsed to your knees hyperventilating.
Myrtle: She's already looking for you in Mexico... We made her think you'd agreed to leave her, hell I banked on tricking one of you, must say I'm surprised it was her. We didn't think she'd go that far to get you back but maybe she loves you even more than you thought...
Y/N: I-I can't forgive you for this Myrtle, never... HOW COULD YOU?!
Myrtle: You will forgive me in time Y/N, all of us, we had to do this for you
You stormed out of the room before you could hear her finish, as you exit you crash into Zoe and Kyle, clearly having been listening from outside anticipating the conversation. Before she speaks you keep walking out of the academy
Zoe: Y-Y/N! I'm sorry, Me, Kyle, Queenie and Myrtle thought it was the right thing to do! We had to!
You turn to her and see her sobbing in sheer terror of your sadness and anger.
Y/N: No, Zoe! You don't get to cry, or scream, or apologise, I get why Myrtle would think that, hell I couldn't give a fuck if that's what Queenie thinks, but you knew how good she was for me, you knew how much I helped her and how in love we were and I thought you actually fucking cared. Fuck you.
You continue to charge out of the academy as the young girl cries, comforted by your undead best friend. And you soon find your grandmother and Laveau with the same Axeman who'd whisked Fiona away for the last few weeks. All three were getting in the car but looked up shocked to see you.
Fiona: Y/N? Where are you going?
You smile at her, the pain in your eyes blindingly evident.
Y/N: To get drunk and break some shit
She looks at you smugly.
Fiona: Ah, that little coven ain't all it's cracked up to be huh? I heard about the plan with Madison, woulda stopped it of course but I think you needed to feel their betrayal yourself... I'll tell you what, you feel like breaking shit, you come with me, we're gonna go deal with those witch hunters and I can't think of a better muscle than you when you're angry.
You hesitate slightly, still begrudging of Fiona after what she did to Madison, to all of you, but you didn't care about that right now, you smirked down at your grandmother entered the back seat silently. These hunters had been the root of your recent problems and cracking them open would be a good way to... let off some steam.
