Magic, Strength And Speed

Chapter 15- Finish it

Latin's Pov

Apparently I fell asleep when doing research because they next thing I know, I wake up to someone shaking me. "LATIN GET UP!" They screeched at me, making me jump. "WAH!" I responded back getting a chuckle. "Finally..." They murmured, exhaling loudly. I rubbed my eyes to see a familiar face. Very tan skin, long brown hair up in a messy bun, freckles all over and hazel eyes. "How long was I out...?" I wondered out loud. "'bout eleven hours." They responded lightly, smiling. I shot up. "Oh crap."

As they just laughed in response, the slim figure shook with it. "Yep. It'll seems like SOMEONE isn't gonna be to happy with ya huh?" I plopped against the bed. "The boss is going to kill me." They shrugged. "Yep. For more reasons than one it would seem." They nodded at the book. I froze, realizing that they were right. "Sis," I addressed her. "Don't you worry. I won't tell 'em. That is something ya have to on ya own." She patted me on the back and left my room, closing the door behind her, leaving me with only my thoughts.

I rushed to get dressed and headed over to the shop. I had my bag with me and wore my necklace today. It's silver chain held a heart charm on it. I rushed in, my hair waved back and forth as I stopped in front of HIM.

He was looking right at me, his arms crossed. "Latin Emily Smith, You have some 'splaining to do." He said firmly. "Yeah.... Sorry dad." Was the best I could respond with as I tried to explain why I took the day off and what I was doing.

"YOU ARE DOING WHAT?" He roared when he found out. "Dad, come on! It's just one case!" He glared at me. "I thought I said NO DETECTIVE BUSINESS!" I sighed. He wasn't going to let this go and we both knew that. "Dad, things are different now! It's fine I swear!" His hazel glare bore into my eyes. He looked a lot like my Sis but older and, well, a guy. They had pretty different personalities. They didn't share many traits but they one thing they did have in common?

Do NOT piss them off.

I normally followed this rule. But today, this time? It was different. Sudden Rage over took my body.

I clenched my eyes shut and got up. This surprised my dad as I opened my eyes, full of fury. "Dad." I stated at first. "These are people who NEED my help! I remember everything and I am the only one who is taking this case right now. These are REAL LIFE PEOPLE! THERE ARE THREE PEOPLE STUCK IN A CAVE ENDURING WHATEVER AND I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN DO THIS! I HAVE COME THIS FAR." I calmed myself down a bit. "Do NOT stop me." I walked out of the room without hearing what he had to say.

Of course, I too, was not someone you wanted to piss off.

I headed straight for the mountain and scaled it, remembering the path I took before. I entered the cave as soon as I saw it. I walked along remembering what I read.

'Though these creatures have mind control, they have no other defenses other than it, besides tentacles but it should not be too bad of a problem. They cannot use their powers one anyone out of a mile range, or anyone in contact with PURE SILVER for unknown reasons.'

I felt the chain around my neck weigh down at the thought. I had inherited a lot of jewelry from my mom and to my glee, most of it was Pure Silver. She only had the real stuff which in this case, was handy. 'Now,' I thought to myself, 'It's time to find those three' I found myself speeding up as the cave make slight echo sounds throughout the place.

Finally I found her. The one in black. Ember was is? I belive so. I faced her and pulled out the Bo Staff I had brought. It was essentially a long stick of wood that was hard to break. Perfect for not killing people. The glowing green eyes sent shivers down my spine as her whole body shuddered for one second. Then, almost as if she were a puppet, she attacked me, two daggers gripped in her hands.
