We all sat down at the table. "Let the record show that at the request of Hawthorne School, that we have assembled an emergency meeting of the council." Cordelia says. "In order to address what must surely be a matter of grave and pressing importance." Myrtle stats annoyed. "Proceed." Cordelia says. The warlock known as Ariel Augustus stands up.

"Illustrious members, I want to thank you for coming and giving us the opportunity to share with you what we discovered. We recently took in a boy hear at this school. First we simply thought he was one of us. A warlock who needed our help and training.-" He explains. "-But?" Zoe asks annoyed. "The things he did were extraordinary, and after conducting a requisite test on his powers we came to the conclusion that his abilities are so impressive that they rise to the level of supreme." Ariel explains giving Cordelia a smug look.

Everyone goes quiet then Cordelia starts laughing. "Dis you say this was a boy? As in male?" Myrtle asks them slowly. "Ariel, you actually believe this?" Cordelia ask. "We wouldn't have summoned the council otherwise." He responds."In all of history no man has ever approached the level of supreme. Men are simply not equal the women when it comes to magical ability." Cordelia explains. "Not to mention in everything else." Myrtle adds."Testosterone is a known inhibitor. It Impedes access to the ethereal realm.Frankly, I question your judgement for calling us here." Cordelia replies to Ariel annoyed.

"There not even hearing us out." The man known as John Henry Moore says. "There's nothing to hear! There will never be a male supreme! It will simply never happen!" Myrtle shouts."Listen to yourselves! You say that something has never happened so therefore it can never happen!" Ariel shouts."What exactly do you want from us?" Cordelia asks trying to calm the situation down. "We want you to administer the task of the seven wonders." Ariel says. "That is out of the question!" Cordelia exclaims. "Why?!" Behold shouts. "Because, I will be condemning this boy to his death!" she exclaims with a shaky voice. Then recomposed herself.

"I lost one of my promising witches Misty Day, by sanctioning a test before her time.I won't make that mistake again.I take care of my own." She says. "At least the ones you care about." Ariel says. "What do you mean by that?!" She questions. "One of your own, who you have abandoned, Queenie." He says. I started to feel my blood boil. "I see it's the black girl you left behind. I see you miss supreme." Behold says with sass. I stood up. "How dare you assume Cordelia abandoned her! She tried her best to bring her back safely to us! It was that fucking monstrous hellish hotel! No matter how much she tried different exits, windows, nothing worked!" I shouted tears in my eyes causing the attention on to me.

"I'm sorry why is this small child in this meeting?" Behold asks. "Don't worry we're leaving this meeting is over, I won't throw this boys life away on some useless endeavor. There will be no test That is this councils decision." Cordelia says tears in her eyes. The Warlocks look at us with shock and anger. "Why do you get to decide that?!" Ariel questions. "Because I am the FUCKING Supreme!" She shouts. Ariel shakes his head. "No, you're just a scared bigot." He tell her. "Scared of what?" She asks. "Of the Alpha. Of a man rising to the level of supreme. Of the end to female dominance.I'm telling you the time must come! " Ariel rants. "And your time is up, this council is closed. The decision is final. There is nothing more to be said." Cordelia retorts.

We were getting ready to leave when we saw Cordelia suddenly stand up with shock on her face. I was about to ask if she was okay when Zoe and Myrtle came in. "Cordelia the car is ready." Zoe says. "Are you alright dear?" Myrtle asks knowing something is off. "Yeah, I'm fine. The air in here.-" She says shaking her head. "The fetid stench of unwashed boy. Makes Bourbon Street small like Chanel NO.5, I can't bear another minute. It's time we left these mole people and return to civilization." Myrtle says. The 4 of us began to leave and outside the doors we see three people walking towards us. One of them was...

"Queenie?"
