So that's how it's gonna be. My father showed up and was now attacking us, no minions, no cloak of darkness, no tricks that I could see.
"What the hell do you want?" Alice shouted at the lone figure on the other side of the clearing.
"Oh Alison, I have come to tell your friends what I have told you," Dracula spoke and a sinister smile spread across his face.
"And what would that be? Alice already told us everything," I challenged and he turned his red gaze to look at me.
"Ah, my own daughter. How could I forget the backstabber who left with the power I had invested in you. Well if you would so kindly get out of those forms I will explain," my father said calmly.
"Don't trust him!" I shouted when I heard shuffling behind me. I have to be careful, he can take over their minds if they aren't careful, I thought to myself hissing a curse.
"But Rose that's the only way to get him to talk," Ryan said confused.
"No listen to me, he is tricking you. If you undo the power he can take us all," I begged and something clicked in all of them, all looks of confusion disappeared.
"She's right, now Dracula what was it you were going to explain?" Alice said, confidence evident in her voice.
"It was worth a try, I have sped up time my friends. Tomorrow is now the super moon," he said and Aiden yelped looking up at the sky to see an almost complete moon.
"Dammit! This is bad," Aiden's voice echoed through my mind and I shook my head looking down. This was bad and I couldn't do a damned thing to change this situation.
"You're too late, I told your friend Alison here that the training is pointless," Dracula said laughing and as he lifted his right hand that was missing two fingered to point at her, the two fingers started growing, eventually he had all five fingers on his hand.
"That's gross," Alexander muttered behind me.
"That's one of the many things he can do now, now that he has killed over 5,000 people," I whispered to the grossed out vampire.
"You are completely correct my daughter. I can your thoughts, see your future, alter time once every year, control people and monsters, and much more that would spoil the fun if I told you everything," Dracula called out to us and I stared at him in shock. He's even more powerful than before.
"No, you won't win to see a next year. Xander!" I shouted and he grabbed my hand, Alice released the magic she and Ryan had been storing. Aiden and Dylan leaped toward us touching their noses to my arm. The sorceress grabbed Alice's hand and we disappeared. When we returned to real time we landed in an unfamiliar land.
"Where are we?" Ryan asked and I grinned slightly.
"Our new training ground," I said and they took in their surroundings with confused expressions. No one knew that we were being protected by those who passed on before us, Alice's father, my mother, Aiden's mom, and Alice's sister.
"Aiden," a gentle voice cut through the cloud of mystery.
"Mom?" Aiden turned into her human form, the white streaks hadn't left her skin yet so they looked like really cool war tattoos.
"We are here to protect you, you only have the rest of today, and only the daylight time of tomorrow to train," my mother's figure appeared out of the white mist of the green land, her pale face and purple eyes looked at me with kindness, I hated looking into the mirror now. I looked so much like her except our hair was different, I had long black and purple hair, she had short chocolate brown hair.
"M-Mother," was all I managed to say as I collapsed to the ground, my hair retreating back its normal length and my wings going back into my shoulders.
"Alice!" A young girl bounded forward out of the mist with Alice's father walking slowly behind her.
"Alexis. This isn't real," Alice muttered as tears formed in her ever changing eyes.
"Alice, I know this is hard," her father said and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Alice who's Alexis?" Ryan asked gently.
"M-My dead sister, we were twins but her powers died out until she was normal, then a dark vampire came and killed her," Alice explained.
"Dark vampire, huh, sounds like my father killed her," I said coldly looking at the clouds as his face appeared in them.
"Dammit, I'll kill him, I'll kill all of his minions and avenge my dead sister and father!" Alice shouted and Alexis wrapped her small arms around Alice.
"We will always be here, no need to avenge us," Alexis said with a smile. I felt someone's hand slip into mine and I looked at who it was and saw Xander's haunting blue-green eyes.
"Xander what are you doing?" I asked and blushed slightly looking down then pointed to Aiden who was crying on her mom's shoulder then I noticed Dylan was there hugging her from behind as she cried. Alice was on her knees hugging Alexis while her father and mother had a hand placed on each of her shoulders while Ryan stood awkwardly to the side.
"That doesn't answer my question," I said shortly.
"Rose, don't you see it? These are all our loved ones here in one place, and since mine are gone for good-" I didn't let him finish as I hugged him tightly with a blush on my face, I didn't let him see me because I knew he looked the same. Everyone was happy and every thought of Dracula was gone.
