That's when Emerson pulled out some bottles and handed them to us.
"Here... This is a potion I made for us so that we aren't recognized..." he said. "It will only last for an hour since I'm but a novice."
"It will work, right?"Larisa asked.
"For as long as it will take to locate Lynette and the hostages. Afterwards we have max a 3 hour window to raise hell, and for everyone to get out of there as fast as we could."
"Good.... We only need 2," Sebastian said as he pulled the cork from the bottle and raised it. "Cheers, brothers."
We raised our bottles to him and then took a swig as we drank the potion.
It did not have a great taste....
I then watched as our faces and hair altered, looking somewhat similar to our former selves, but enough to look completely different.
"I do not fit well as a blonde..." Shy sighed as she looked at her newly died blonde hair. ".... No offense, Aldous...."
"None taken," I chuckled. "I'm not exactly much of a brunette either."
"Its only temporary," Emerson assured.
"Why does Frederick look the same?" Larisa asked as she looked at Sebastian in confusion, her hair black and her skin an olive tone, features a little less sharp than usual.
"Alan, you look the same also," Shy said in confusion.
"Oh, yeah, only your mate can see who you truly are," Emerson explained. "Lynette will be able to see who Aldous is, but every else will be disguised to her."
"Good enough for me," I said, taking a deep breath.
It wasn't long until we arrived and I looked out the window.
"Looks like you were right, Alan...." I said as we pulled up to the large manor.
"Lynette was smart identifying her senses, and Cemeteries Forest seemed like a good enough place for these snakes to hide in," Emerson said.
"Let's do this," Sebastian said, and we all climbed down from the carriage, and then I walked over to Austin.
"Hide in the woods with the other carriages, get ready to escort the hostages with the others," Sebastian told him. "You know the rest of the plan."
Austin nodded and bowed before closing the carriage and getting ready while I saw everyone else slowly sneaking in through different directions, Leda and another maid, Bella, sneaking in together through a window into a dark room.
"Let's go," Sebastian said, and we headed up the stairs, walking through the doors.......
