They got to the room and Alex spoke first, "Are you sure about this Leah?"
"Yes Alex, I've never seen a book like this before." Leah answered her.
"How did you get it?".
"I found it on the study desk in my bedroom. I've never seen this book in my bedroom before so I don't even know how it got there, bit I'm positive it'll be very helpful, we can use this to defeat Darkness Alex."
"Um...Leah," Alex spoke, not raising her head up, she was going through the book already, "I don't think this book's going to be of good use to us." She said, finally raising her head up.
"What do you mean Alex?" Leah asked her, confused.
"Leah there are lots of drawings here, drawings of snakes and scorpions, humans with horns and forked tails, flying women, all of these are closely connected to darkness. There are even myths and all scary stories about evil. Snakes, scorpions, they're demons in their evil realm and are agents of The Dark Side, the League explained these to us Leah."
"So you're saying this book belongs to Darkness?"
"Not exactly, but there's nothing about light or our realm in this book. The names of the greatest ancients and powerful witches aren't even here, I don't think you got the right book Leah. Maybe we should ask my mom?"
"Alright."
They both went downstairs amd met Lyla coming out of the kitchen.
"Mom we want to show you something." Alex spoke up.
"Alright girls, what is it?" She asked.
"Let's sit." Alex said as she sat with Leah, Lyla sitting right in front of them with only the center table separating them.
"Mom Leah found this book in her room," Alex said giving the book go her mom who looked at its cover over and over again.
"Leah thinks thus book can help is defeat darkness and the spells are good. But there are different drawings of snakes and scorpions, beings with horns and and many other things used by darkness.""Well the snake and scorpion are demons from darkness, the human with horns shows that darkness is inhuman, it's beyond being or looking like a human amd having evil powers to destroy, being a part of darkness means having an animal like character, being ruthless, it's a must for their members. The pictures of flying women here shows their members hovering the earth planting division and havoc. Darkness wants to dominate light and ruin the physical world and as far as the myths amd stories are concerned, stories of our own realm do not trigger fear, rather you're intrigued. These spells are used by darkness and it is abominable for members of light to use such spells, let alone have such book among their possessions. I think you girls should get rid of this." Lyla explained to the girls.
"Aunt Lyla you know my whole family are all part of this realm, no one belongs to Darkness, none of us could have gotten this book and I have no idea how it got to my room. I used the study desk yesterday but it wasn't there until this morning. But I remain convinced that this book has been brought to aid us, we shouldn't let the anxiety from the battle get to us." Leah said, still not taking anything Lyla said.
"Leah that book must have been planted in your room by darkness to deceive you. I am a witch like you two and I was a witch before you were both born, your knowledge is little or none compared to mine so you have to believe my words dear." Lyla said, still trying hard to convince Leah.
"Aunt Lyla, maybe I should show this to the rest of my team first. I'll call the others Alex, we should go to the house." Leah said as she stood up.
"Alright I'll come with you." Alex said also standing up with Leah. They both walked towards the door and when she was out of the house and about closing the door her mom called her back.
"Alex."
"Yes mom."
"Leah is your best friend and you are hers too, she might listen to you, that book is pure evil. Be careful child."
"Okay mom, I will. Bye." Alex said and closed the door behind her.
