We've been driving on the road for what seem to be hours. We arrive at the airport and Xalvo says "excuse my jinx here but how exactly are we going to get these guns into the airport they arent exactly gun friendly". I smirk at the way he said that something Noah would say. I say "We steal a plane I assume that's not hard to do for us". Xalvo chuckles and says " seems reasonable enough to me"and Uela smiles at him and I find myself missing Noah deeply. Xalvo says "then what are we waiting for if we are to do this it should be sooner rather than later". We sneak around the runway hangars until we found a little private plane probably meant for traveling politicians. We run over to it and I tell Xalvo to take the fuel truck nozzle out because the fuel tank is full and to put the car in the hangar.Xalvo shakes his head and i say " what do you mean" uela whispers in my ear and i say "what the fuck" xalvo attaches some explosives to the bottom of the car and tells us hell be back and drives the car into the hangar and comes out of it driving the plane parking it in front of the hangar.I tell Uela to go inside the plane check to see if anyone is in it besides Xalvo in case his sweep missed anyone and then get in the cockpit and assist him in starting the plane. Everyone gets on bored and I shut the door. I go to the cockpit and sit in the passenger seat and tell Uela and Xalvo "lets go". She says "yes mistress". Xalvo pulls the lever down and we begin to take off. We're in the sky now and I play my music over the intercom and I go to the back of the plane with a blanket and sit back there to get my thoughts together. I open the blinds to the window next to me. I look at the clouds and the sun and how much I would love to walk on the clouds with Noah which I'm sure he could make happen if I hadn't caused him to induce his own coma. Guilt shoots through me and then Tati comes and sits next to me and says "you know your not all that evil I can see right through you. You're just scared. You've been beaten, terriozied, bullied. You've been through everything but you still care your body can take a beating but your heart can not. Your everything else but evil, evil is the one thing that you are not". I turn to her and say " Tati how do you know if I'm not evil? ". She smiles and says " let me see your hand". I hold my hand up and she holds it. I ask "what are you doing". She says " I'm reading your aura". I stay quiet. She says " your soul is bruised, your heart needs stitches, your lost and broken but theirs nothing that says your evil". I look down and say" I believe you". Tati smiles and says " your young and as the years go by you will become wise". I crack a smile at her and say " thank you ". She smiles and says " it was a pleasure ". Uela walks up and says "Mistress about 4 hours until we land in Rome". I say " thank you Uela". She bows and walks away. And i recline out and take what i intend to be a short nap. I wake up three hours and a half later with a mindnumbing headache i probably got from crying. I walk up to the cockpit to see how we are doing as far as progress. I open the door to the cockpit and see Uelas lips locked onto Xalvos and say "oh shit sorry" I pull the door closed and breath for a second. That's new. I pull out the piece of paper Xalvo gave me I unfold it and the words and pictures begin to appear again hopefully this will take my mind away from the surprise. Calypso is under the coliseum, I look at the coordinates and I close my eyes. I think about what my life was before and what it is now. God I hope that bringing back this witch will wake him up. I need him more than he thinks. I get up and go to the cockpit again where they have separated and Uela blushes as she says "we are close to landing Mistress" The plane starts getting bumpy as we descend and the tires come out as we touch the ground on a landing strip in Rome ignoring the messages saying we are not cleared. We will have to move fast to avoid judicial complication. I put my sunglasses on and head out the plane door. Xalvo gets a car from the airport parking lot and Tati disguises the plane with some exotic spell. Xalvo meets up with us.I get onto the drivers seat and everyone gets in the car I pull out the map and say " its now or never". While we head to the coliseum I can't help but wish we came here on better terms this place is really beautiful. Uela asks " how will we wake her up?". Xalvo smiles fractionallu and says "she's awake she's never slept she's just been laying in a metal box, six. Feet. Under, for centuries. Courtesy of a tonic i made her". I say " so once we open the coffin she'll climb out". Xalvo says "yes possibly that's if creatures and dark beings didn't get to her body throughout the years". He chuckles as if mentally admiring his work. We pull up to the coliseum we get out of the car and I pop the trunk we each grab a shovel except for Xalvo who turns into his demonic form of a dog.
We head into the coliseum and I look at the map and I point at a spot and say " she's over there". We head to the spot and Xalvo starts digging and everyone just steps back not able to complete with his speed. Tati stands off to the side ready to put a sleeping spell on her. Uela hits something and it makes a metallic noise. Xalvo wipes the remaining dirt away and turns into his human form and opens the metal box slowly because of the weight. Then we see her Calypso just laying there waiting, shen opens her eyes slowly they are a bright red, her skin is very pale, her hair is dark red as if it had soaked in blood so much it had absorbed the color. She screams and tries to jump at Xalvo who smiles and reaches for his flintlock .I stand in front of him holding my gun to her forehead and say " be a good girl now and sit the fuck down we don't have time for your bullshit". She sits and says "who the fuck are you,order me again demon bitch and you'll regret it". I say " I'm the bitch that has a h
Gun to your head don't ask questions I'm the only one asking questions here". She says "A gun can't kill me if you had done your homework you know that". Xalvo moves me aside and points his ancient pistol at her head " this might kill you though" he says "now listen to the demoness" the look that flashes between them is so full of hatred you can actually feel the heat " we need your help to wake someone up your the only one that can"I say cutting the silence. She says "who?" I take a picture out of my pocket of me and Noah. She widens her eyes and says " my man, you need help with my man". I nod to Xalvo and he pushes the gun onto her forehead. I lean down and say " he's mine now and it wasn't up to me to come and get you, if I had a choice right now your brains would be all over my hands" my eyes turn into my true eyes, "so if I was you I'd help us because I'm not in the fucking mood to play games." Uela says "Mistress,Xalvo, don't kill her we need her". I back off of Calypso. Calypso looks over and see Tati and says " you traitor your suppose to be on our side ". Calypso jumps up to attack Tati. I chop her in the throat and she falls down gasping for air. " Xalvo" I say, he says "yes Mistress". " tie this poor excuse of a sorceress up and bring her to the car ". He says " yes Mistress ". Xalvo kneels down and says " by the way it was my idea to put you in the metal box honestly master forgot about you but I didn't, you see I fantasize about doing it over and over and over again hearing you scream as I lock you up for all time and I'm pretty sure the Headmistress that just chopped you in the throat won't hesitate to let me kill you so I suggest you play nice". He ties up her hands and puts her in the trunk next to the shovels and slams the trunk down.
