My Beginning After the End Four Armies

Blood Army - Generals

Melody Tremaine

I was sitting in a room with Raven and Rosa, the three of us were just talking, there wasn't much to do at the moment, everything was ready with the blood army, the only thing left to do in the Blood Grotto was to deal with the elves. I was hoping that they would join our side, but we don't know, Virion intends to speak to them in a couple of days, maybe after they retake Xyrus or Etistin.

"Uhh." Raven made a noise as she stretched, she seemed annoyed being in here. "Why are all the boys out there, and Rosa, Ivy, and I are stuck in here!" She exclaimed, throwing her hands up in the air as she sat criss cross apple sauce on the couch. "And why can't we see Ivy yet!"

"You know why." I told her. "She is working with Kiloph still, figuring out everything, learning her abilities." Kiloph was the first Wraith, and only Wraith, Virion captured, he was one of the first prisoners, now, he is under the mind slave spell, so he is our ally, and actually a very nice person. "And you are here because there is nothing out there at the moment, that needs your attention."

"Umm, I could be in Alacrya with Nithe." Raven responded. "I don't understand why I have to stay here; I understand why father wants to hide us all from Arthur and the other Dicatheons, but I don't see why we have to hide from people like that Seris woman, we could aid them in the rebellion."

"I can't believe I am saying this, but Raven is right, we should be able to help Nithe out." Rosa said, and this caused Raven to look at her sister with an annoyed expression. "If father doesn't want us around his family, he could easily send us to Alacrya, they won't be going there for quite some time I believe."

"No." I shook my head, speaking calmly to the girls. "You know that you two are here in case something happens, and you need to go and attend to it. Your father has told you with his clones that if something happens in a city, and he needs your help, the two of you, or one, will go and help him."

"I know." Raven sighed as she spoke. "I'm just saying, we are being wasted here." Rosa nodded her head, and then Raven snapped her own head to Rose. "Wait! You said you couldn't believe that you agreed with me? What does that even mean?!"

"You know what it means." Rosa told her sister. "It means that I was surprised that you actually said something insightful." The two just exchanged looks, and I knew what this meant, it happens a lot, especially when all four of them were in here.

"You know I could kick your ass." Raven told Rosa, staring at her with a fierce look. "Say something like that again, I dare you." They might not have been children, but I can say that they still had sibling rivalry.

"Enough." I said, and the two stopped staring at one another, and turned to me. I was like their mother, same with Cassandra, the two of us were there for them when they were first created, helped them adapt to their special situation, and saw that they were trained correctly. "You two need to stop arguing, and I understand that you two want to fight, you are just like your father, trust me, your time will come."

Raven threw her hands up again but didn't say anything. "Haha." Rosa laughed. "I bet father will choose me over you, so you better get used to staying in here." I rolled my eyes as I listened, they just continued to bicker.

"Tch." Raven made a noise. "We both know that if we fought, I would kill you, like for real." I knew that out of the five, Damon was the strongest, actually, Ivy might be stronger than him, she has a very unique ability. Rosa and Raven were on the same level, but had different abilities, so depending on how they used them, it was hard to judge who was stronger.

"You don't know that." Rosa told Raven. "I think I'll be heading out." She stood up, looking at Raven with a smirk, then at me with a normal expression. "I'm going to go up to the Grotto and see what's going on, Cassandra is up there, correct?"
