Chapter 13

                I was being chased. But, it was not only by a few people. It was more like a few hundred. And I was scared right out of my mind. I had been running for 20 minutes now and I’m pretty sure I’ve gotten a few miles down.  All I need was a couple of more miles and I’ll be in their territory. I hope their alpha isn’t chasing me though, because I would be out-run by him. I ran as fast as I could and luckily I casted a spell on me so I wouldn’t get tired. I dodged trees and bushes and tripped once which made them caught up to me. I heard gunshots firing, but luckily I dodged each and every one of them. I was a witch too, so there was no way I could out run a full wolf so I crafted a drink to make me run faster. I was suddenly out of my territory and running through their forest and there were only a few more minutes left.

                I saw a field up ahead and stopped in the middle of it. “Don’t move any closer or I’ll slice off your alpha’s daughter’s neck!” I threatened pulling out a pocket knife and holding up to her neck. I knew I was probably going to die because the bomb timer had only 30 seconds before setting off. The wolves back off and were surprised that a ‘human’ could do this, but I used my perfume to disguise my scent. I dropped the ‘girl’ and ran off. When I was out of sight, I tripped and fell while a few people chased me. They tried to kill me but I managed to kill them. I then summoned back up the real Kayla who was sleeping in another vortex in which I put her in. Spells witches could use can do anything nowadays. She woke up and starts screaming because she knew I was not a good person. Well, I’m trying to save your life. There wasn’t that much time left until the timer goes off and I’m pretty sure the pack has found out there was a bomb attached to ‘Kayla’ and I could hear them say “It’s a trap!” Then, it strikes one and I haven’t made it that far and I could feel the bomb explode and I was in the explosion, too. It was god damn painful too. Like in the movies, everything just went slow motion as I saw pitch black and a faint voice.

                “Corona!” I hear Mathilda say. “Corona, wake up for heaven’s sake!” She began to feel annoyed as I began to slur not wanting to get up. I felt a sharp pain in my body but it was suddenly gone when Mathilda slapped me. I jerked right up and smelled a disgusting burn. I was naked and the trees were all black and burnt up. Oh right, I blew up an area in the forest. I began to panic as I saw Kayla’s dead corpse lying there.

                “Holy sh*t, she’s dead!” I cried. I grabbed her. We were far away enough so that her body won’t fully disintegrate, but the impact did make her die. She was all burnt up and I cringed at the sight. Oh my god, I can’t believe I just killed a poor, innocent little girl and I just broke down crying. She was all black and that’s all I could see. I’m sure if I let this girl go, her images would haunt me forever because she looked so fre*king scary! I sighed and only knew one thing to do. “Mors et vita, tamen et non subsistem.” (Death and life, and I will not, however, cease to exist.)  I said the spell my mother taught me years ago. I said it slowly and needed to concentrate because this spell only works once in a while. “Ego tuam vitam tui prosperabitur sub voluntatem.” (I am in your life and you will prosper.) I’m using a spell that would give my life to that person. What’s going to happen anyways? I would just die again and then revive. I repeat the last line as I can feel as the star of magic carving under me on the ground and on Kayla too who I rested on my lap. “Sit vita mea ecce!” (Here is my life!) I finally say and I feel a gush of wind flowing through me and I felt my life being taken away. It was like everything was being drained out and I saw pitched black darkness once again today.

                I hear another voice that was not so familiar. “Ma’am!” I hear a little girl’s voice cry out. “Ma’am, please wake up!” I opened my eyes just a creek and looked at the girl with blonde curly locks. I just died for the second time today and was actually pretty happy that Kayla was now alive and looking well again.
