Love and Hunt

Chapter Ten

I had been in this way. I had been in this city bus with Grace and Alex. And I still remembered about the abandoned warehouse where Jacob and the twin witches had been waiting for us. It was located at the edge of this city and near the border. So, it was far from Grace's premises. When I couldn't escape from the fight, I kept thinking about Will. I still got the fear and worry as I had to kill the twin witches for stopping Jacob from hunting down those people in this city. It meant that I could save Will from Jacob and his witches. I was still waiting to arrive in that abandoned warehouse while Grace was looking out of the window. And Alex sat quietly and looked forward to the road through the window of this city bus at the front. That was the moment when I talked with my father after leaving the house in the countryside. He didn't get mad at me when I told him that I came to this city for helping Grace in completing the mission. I tried to control my body when I could feel the eagerness to jump around, cry and scream growing stronger as I would face the real fight and kill two witches for the first time. And I could feel that my heart throbbing faster.

I was walking behind Grace and Alex when I knew that the street was fulfilled by few pedestrians. I could find those factories around along the way to reach the abandoned warehouse where Jacob and his witches were hiding. I kept walking and stayed still behind Alex and Grace when I knew that they truly counted on me for killing the twin witches. I kept looking around and found out that three of us were the only pedestrians walking down this street.

"We're about to arrive at the abandoned warehouse, Anna." Grace said.

"Be ready." Alex said.

Then, I could feel my legs starting shaking, but I held them calm and normal. I was still behind two of them when I saw the twin witches face to face this time. I was in the middle of Alex and Grace when approaching the spot in front of the twin witches who had been waiting for three of us. I only saw the twin witches blocking me and Alex and Grace from getting into that abandoned warehouse to see Jacob. I still remembered what my father had told me. He told me that Jacob's witches didn't care anymore about the agreement, so he allowed me to kill the twin witches for stopping Jacob to hunt down those people in this city. Then, I stopped few feet away from the twin witches with Alex and Grace.

I saw one of them wearing that black t-shirt with long sleeves, and the other twin witch wore that white t-shirt and denim jacket. Both of them were wearing jeans. I couldn't differentiate the twin witches even one of them was bald and the other was with short hair.

"Bring two witches won't give you the chance to get through both of us, Grace." The one who was with short hair said. "I'm sure you've known about those dead twenty police officers."

"Yeah," Grace said. "So, that's why we come here for stopping both of you."

"Well, let see who will get killed first." The one who was bald said.

When the short hair twin witch lifted his hand and pointed at three of us, I lifted both of my hands and put them in front of me. And I knew that the barrier spell had worked. The twin witch kept putting his hand in front of us when he found that nothing happened. I was sure his spell didn't work to three of us because of my barrier spell. And I was sure the one who was with short hair had human control spell.

I thought the fight would be over when those twin witches found out about the spell that I had, but it began to provoke the anger toward the bald twin witch. I saw him lifting both of his hands up in the air. When I looked around, no thing was moved.

"Look!" Alex said as looking at the back of us. When I looked back while keeping my hands in front of me, I saw four cars were floating and moving toward three of us. Those floating cars must be controlled by that twin witch using his spell. When those four cars were floating above three of us, they were dropped right away to fall to three of us. But I lifted my left hand to strengthen the upper surface of the invisible barrier that had been created by the spell. From the first car to the second one, the invisible barrier had protected three of us from being hit by those fallen cars from the air. Then, the left two cars were being moved away from us and got close to those twin witches over there. They were floating above the controller.
