The Unvanquished Truth [EDITING WITH SLOW UPDATES]

Chapter Nine: The Unvanquished Truth (Liz's P.O.V)

On her way out of the party, Liz kept bumping into people and ‘accidentally’ spilled her cup on Gabriela, she was wearing grey shirt/purple shirt with jeans and grey boots.

“Sorry!” she shouted mockingly and made her way out the backdoor.

Once outside, she made her way over to the woods, sensing a presence but not quite sure. Liz started to get things ready, placing candles in a seven pointed star position. She then placed the herbs where Alex’s instructions told her, the middle, thinking doing this get rid and not let evil enter spell, was a bit ridiculous. Taking a stick, she drew lines on the floor to connect the candles. Going towards the middle, she recited the spell.

“O dii deaeque protectionis ab omni malo deféndat, et domus ista, in exsilium agere, amplect untur negativum positivum.”

“Benedic, et muniat. Tuum elementals et scutum eorum. Et succendam ignem in usus mali sint, uti aquae contra  daemones, tum spiritus in magica, et usum terrae, proditores , et a latronibus non liberat. Dico autem, quod fiat semper.”

At first the spell was working perfectly, but at one point it starts to fall apart when an unstable energy mixes with the energy from the spell. The objects around start to elevate and with so much uncontrollable energy loose, one almost hits her, missing shoulder by millimeters.

 Trying to restore control, Liz sees a dark figure coming. At the last moment, before she blasted the figure to pieces, she saw it was Robert. He ran up to her and when he grabbed her hand, Liz saw the magic energy surrounding Robert. Before she could do anything, everything went white.

When her eyes focused again, she saw Robert looking at something far away and noticed that a window broke from Alex’s house. Liz started to panic, realizing that with so much magic energy loose, it would attract an unwanted guest. ‘Nicholas Gates’, the most despicable man she has ever met she thought as Robert made manners more complicated, asking a bunch of questions.  

“Calm down! One question at a time, please, it’s not a good time”, she said annoyed after the fifth question.

Taking a deep breath, Robert asked, “Why does this look so familiar? It’s like déjà vu or something.”

“What do you mean?”
