"Hello Willow

"Hello Willow." Olive's smirk grew into a wide sinister smile. Leah growled and moved to stand in front of Willow in a protective manner. Olive opened her mouth and let out a scream that rattled the trees from the roots up.

Leah howled and dropped her head to the ground and tried to claw at her own ears in a way of trying to cover them. Willow on the other hand was fine. Her fire agate necklace protected her from the banshee scream.

"Stop it!" Willow demanded as Leah's howls turned into cries. Olive stopped her scream and turned her attention back onto Willow.

"They were right about you. Your little witch has you well protected." Olive tilted her head to the side and examined Willow for a moment.

"You've come to kill me."

"Yes." Olive looked over at Leah who was still in pain and crouched down on the ground. "It's only fair."

"Did you actually love Alex?" Willow let the words slip before he even thought about it. In a flash Olive was in front of Willow with her hand wrapped around Willow's neck.

"How dare you." Olive spat. "You're the reason he's dead."

Willow clawed at the hand wrapped around her neck. It reminded her of Alex and how he had held her life in his hands at some point. Now Olive was going to kill her and there was no way to stop it. She wondered if Koda would remember her when she was gone? Would Jasper lose his mind and abandon his family?

Just as Willow's eyes began to shut Olive was tackled off of her. Willow wheezed and coughed as she collapsed to the ground. She opened her eyes to see Jasper moving at the speed of light fighting against Olive. Willow took one last glance before she made her way over to Leah who had transformed back into her human form.

"Are you okay?" Willow asked as she stripped her jacket off to put it over Leah.

"My ears." Leah cried. "I can't hear."

"Shit." Willow helped her to her feet as the sound of cracking marble filled the air around them. Willow pulled clothes out of the pouch on her leg and helped her get dressed.

Willow felt useless.

There was nothing she could do to help Leah and there was nothing she could do to help Jasper. She led Leah to a tree that she could sit back against the trunk. She turned her attention towards the fighting and tried to pinpoint what was going on. There was an arm laying on the ground and Willow was almost certain that it wasn't Jaspers.

Before she could blink Jasper was standing in front of her with a protective stance. Willow had to look over Jasper's shoulder to see Olive standing there with a look of murder on her face and her arm detached.

"Move." Olive ordered. Jasper didn't respond or move. "A mate for a mate. It's only fair."

"I killed him because he was going to kill her." Jasper explained and Willow wondered if this was hard for him.
