3rd Person P.O.V.

Kaiden stood between 2 burnt down houses. Pissed off at those who did this. All that is left are the foundations. He notices an SUV in the corner of his eye with a man fitting the description of his uncle sitting in the driver seat. Getting on the yellow motorcycle with black scales to represent a snake, he heads towards his next stop. The SUV follows.

Sally sits nervously in her living room waiting on Kaiden. They are bait for the bad guys that are staging as a date. Even though it is a fake date, it feels real. The moment he helped her calm down from that scary dream-like memory, she liked him ever since.  The sound of a knock startled Sally right out of her thoughts. Her brother Zane answered the door. Looking big and intimidating on purpose. 

"Bring her back to me safe and sound." said Zane.

Kaiden says while saluting "Ay, Captain!"

He understands it is scary to leave your sister's safety to someone else. The fact it's a fake date doesn't help, on top of  the battle ahead. I get why he is on edge. Me and my own sister are in this battle. The teenagers get on the bike for their stage date to lead the enemy to their trap. They made plans in case that message was planted.

Sally blushed at the thought when I picked her up, helping it look like one. She holds onto me tightly making the little man a bit happy. That made it hard to drive because I kept thinking of how her boobs were on my back.  

The SUV followed them to an ice cream shop and then the park. The 2 were being watched closely because they are the only ones that have been seen in the last few days. They would be a nice present to his lordship, to have all 4 kneeling down when he arrives. Night time comes fast as the sun starts to go down. By that time Stepping Stone Falls park is empty. The teenagers get on the motorcycle and bike the trail to the beach. The wind blows along with them as if nature is on their side. The wind has been strong all day in town as if feeling anxious about the battle ahead.

Park time to close is 10 and it is silent except for those who stayed behind. The yellow bike races across the trail that leads to the beach. The magic energy that surrounded the beach and the park pushed innocents away thanks to Scarlett and her teacher Mari. The water ripples as the wind blows over it as the creatures feel the tension in the water and air. The place eerie silent.

Night falls and 3 SUV's pull in the beach filled with people, including the one that followed the teenagers on the other side of the park. That same bike is now sitting in a pavilion near the beach. The kids watch the cars roll in. 5 or 6 people come out of an SUV wearing white, with one person in the group taking care of children in white. 

Sally and Kaiden start to feel sick. After hearing what happened through Kaiden's mom they know who they are in a sense. Those people do not have a clue of what is coming. Both want to run and save them but they must wait until they see the black magic ball. A man walks up looking friendly.

"Hi Kaiden, I am your uncle. I hope you are having a good time on your little date." said the uncle. 

The uncle thinks, when this is all over I will get my prize, Annalise wait for me.

He looks at Sally with a creepy grin. At the same time Kaiden spotted the ball they were waiting for and dropped a magic signal device. The exact moment the dog whistle touches the concrete a horde of wolves race out of the tree line and start to attack the dark mages. 

The battle begins.

The uncle is stunned as the teenagers rush past them to get the black ball. The small amount of people they brought were able to hold off the wolves but never able to get a killing blow for they vanished in a black mist before that could happen or if the injuries were bad enough. The people in white hid in the car they just got out of. Shock and scared at the sudden fight that broke out. 

The uncle snapped out of it and chased  after the kids. He sees 3 wolves run alongside them. A rustic looking one has a girl with bright red hair on top of him. Her hair looks like flames in the air. Well fuck, the winners of White Night are not as innocent as we wanted them. Hopefully that doesn't ruin the ritual. 

Janet holds on for dear life so she does not fall off Titus as he runs from the woods. Now that all 4 of them are together with Marco and Zesty, they head to the old man with the black ball full of dark magic. They think all they have to do is break the ball but he is protected by 2 dark mages. Janet looks closely at the SUV's to see big black containers similar to the black ball. In all the dark mages number about 18. She thinks that is where they are getting their power despite the small numbers in comparison to the on slot of wolves. 

Seeing that he did not have much time, the old man threw the ball in the grass and started to chant. Opting out of the sacrifice for getting his master here faster. Out of the ball came a black and purple fog that went straight up in a line. As he chanted the line slowly got bigger. Just then all six running to the old man, saw Mari on the other side doing her own chanting. It became a battle of chanting. 

It seemed that they could not get there anytime soon. Like they have not made any ground to the old man for a while. The kids and the 2 wolves stopped after Sally yelled at them to stop. They listened and Sally turned around to see they can only assume he was the father of Annalise when she told them more about her family. Just in case he came and it was a good thing she did. She said he was the best the clan had when it came to black and fire magic because he was born with the ability to use fire magic. The clan and he took great pride in that.

"Boy! You will leave them be. Let's see if you are able to keep up with the adults" Scarlett said in a condescending tone as she walked in between the party of 5 and the 'boy'.

Which to her isn't wrong, at her age most living creatures are younger than her. The man puckered his face in anger at the words and lashed out with fire directed at her for calling him a boy hurting his pride. Scarlett waves them on as the battle rages on around them. You could hear growls and grunts in the air.
