The Unknown Bloodline

Chapter 5

~Violet's POV~

"Demons? That's impossible. Demons don't exist.", I said as I rolled my eyes. "If witches exist, why can't demons?", Diana said as I sighed. "If demons exist I would know. You guys would know. Don't you think if they existed at least one of us would have come across one?", I said as I looked at Diana. "Not necessarily. Demons take the forms of small snakes and use bodies as a vessel. It would be hard to see one unless we are physically watching the person and waiting to see a small snake moving inside of them.", Diana explained. "So this reckless idiot is somehow connected to demons? I won't believe it till I see it", I said as I walked out. "Where are you going?", Nick asked coming after me. "Demons? You people are insane.", I said as Nick laughed. "Why is that so hard to believe? I mean you are a witch. I'm a witch. Demons aren't that much different.", he said as I sighed. I stopped and looked at him, "I don't want to believe it, Nick. If demons exist that means my mother lied to me and for what? I have no idea. I mean she obviously took me and left this town and her friends along with her sister for some reason and I need to figure out what that reason is." "And you will. Just right now we need to figure out these demons.", he said as I nodded. I smiled, "Nick?" He looked at me, "hm?" "So you know the dance at school... I was wondering if you would go with me...", I said as he stared at me. He laughed, "I don't go to dances. And we aren't even dating. And if that is where this is going then I'm done being friends.", he said as he walked away. I sighed as I headed home. When I got home I went straight to my room.

As I finished getting ready I heard a knock on my door. Hoping it was Nick, I practically flew down the stairs. When I opened the door it was just Melissa. I sighed, "Come on in." "You sound disappointed?", she said as I nodded. "It's just... I asked Nick to the dance and he basically told me no.", I said as Melissa smiled. "Nick is a douchebag, but don't worry about it. He likes you. I can tell by the way he looks at you. It's so obvious.", she said as I smiled back. "Let's just go to this formal.", I said as she nodded and we left. When we got there we found Adam, Cassie, and Diana. "Let's just enjoy this night. No demons or anything.", Melissa said as we all nodded. I went off to get a drink while the others talked. "Man this place is boring.", I heard a very familiar voice say. "Nick! You came!", I said as I turned around and faced him. He rolled his eyes, "what do you even want from me, Violet? I'm not going to dance." "I know.", I said as we walked off. We headed into the hallways and found the stairs where he sat down. "Why do you even like me, Violet? I'm a complete jerk. I treat you and everyone else like trash. Do you enjoy that?", he said as I shook my head. "No. I actually don't. I was hoping you would change, but I guess I was wrong.", I said as I went to walk away, but Cassie, Faye, Diana, and Adam all came running up to us. "Faye was just attacked by someone possessed by a demon.", Diana said as I nodded. We all took off heading to where she was attacked and of course the guy was still there. He looked completely normal except for the small creature moving in his skin. "I can handle this.", I said as I walked forward and started chanting. Easy enough the man exploded. "Well that was easy.", I said as I looked at them. Little did we know it was far from over. "Let's all head home.", Cassie said as we nodded.

~timeskip next day (Violet's POV)~

I woke up to loud knocking on my front door. I rushed downstairs. When I opened the door it was Nick. "What are you doing here, Nick?", I asked as he looked at me. "I don't feel so good...", he said as I looked at him confused. A couple seconds later he screamed in pain and fell to the floor and that's when I seen it... the demon had gone inside Nick. "Oh my god, Nick!", I said as I went to help him up, but he pushed me away and then pinned me to the wall by my neck. "Nick... please it's me...", I said in between the struggling breaths. He wouldn't listen. I closed my eyes and threw him off of me with my magic. We made eye contact and then he took off. I texted everybody telling them to meet at the safehouse and that it was an emergency. When I got there they were all there. "What is it?", Adam asked. "It's Nick... the demon possessed him..." I said as they all looked shocked. "We have to find him!", I said as they nodded. "Alright... me and Faye will stay back and find out how to get rid of the demon, while the rest of you go look for him.", Diana said as we all nodded. Melissa, Adam, and Cassie went together, while I went by myself seeing I had individual magic. I decided to check near the boathouse. When I got there I heard a scream. It sounded like Nick's. It was near the water. I never ran so fast in my life. When I got there Diana's dad, Charles was drowning Nick, while Faye's mom, Dawn, was just watching. "No!! Let him go!!", I yelled as they both looked at me. "Violet... we have to... you wouldn't understand...", Dawn said as I walked towards them. "I... said... let... him.... go!", I yelled as I lifted them both with my magic and threw them. I knocked Dawn out and pinned Charles to the wall with my magic. "You will not get away with this. Demon or not he is still a child! He can be saved!", I said as Charles shook his head. "No he can't... the demon needs to be killed.", he said as I smirked. This power I was feeling was so addictive. It felt amazing. It was exactly like when me and Nick did magic together before. "Let's see how you like it when you drown.", I said as I closed my eyes and pictured his lungs feeling up with water and started to collapse. His throat getting dry and scratchy as he runs out of air. His airways closing. He started to cough up water. I was killing him and I would have if it wasn't for Diana. I couldn't put her through the same pain I felt when I lost my parents. I dropped him and when I turned around I was shocked. My aunt was there and she was staring at me. "You have your magic?..."
