TWENTY -|VANICA|

                      "NICA," A familiar voice called out her name. Vanica flutters her eyes open to stare in a pair of yellow snake eyes with a peck of black sloth in the middle. She stares shakily at the black snake staring at her. Something about it felt calming, A sense relief radiate through its eyes as it stares at her. She stares into its eyes as she started to feel connected to the snake. She wasn't a friend of them but for some odd reason, she feels connected to this one.

"I don't have much time, Venroy is hurt!" The snake his in an urgent tone as it slips its long tongue out.

"You'll feel it after I leave, I did what I can but he needs you," The snake hisses into her mind, A burning pain surge through her lower abdomen. Then another landed in her neck. "Wake Up!" The snake hisses loudly as Vanica tighten shut her eyes to try to subside the pain. "Who are you?" She asked.

"Zaya!" She heard a female uttered quietly as another pain surge through her entire body as the sound of the bedroom door burst open and Daisy rushed in towards her. "Your bleeding," Alpha Cion blurted out frighten as another pain surge through her body as she hears her brother muffled cries for help.

"It's Not Me, It's Venroy," She tries to get up but the pain was too unbearable, just as Jasper Venroy right-hand guardsman collapsed into his room. "Roy needs help!" He said before he collapsed onto the ground with his eyes filled with veins.

"NICA!" Her brother's voice vibrated through her body.

"Where is he?" Daisy snaps at the vampire on the ground who groans in pain. Grandpa Exon rushed in with his help boy who stares at her shaking. "Let me," He rushed towards her.

"No, bring him here," She pointed to Jasper.

" What are you going to do?" Cion asked.

"I am bringing my brother here. "

"How?" Grandpa Exon asked.

"I'm going to used his body," She said as Alpha Cion and Daisy lifted Jasper towards the bed.

"Please don't tell me you are going to teleport using his body," Daisy muttered.

"You remember what happen the last time,"

"This is my brother, He'll know it's me." Vanica gritted through her teeth as another pain erupted in her body.

"Then I'm coming with you," Daisy snap in a tone which states she isn't taking no for an answer.

"No!" Vanica snaps at Daisy. Vanica didn't have time to study the anger or disapproval look upon her friend face as another pain radiates through her body. "Why do I feel like I'm not liking this and I submit to agree with Daisy." Alpha Cion stares at his mate.

"I need to save my brother," She growls at him.

"What do we do?" Alpha Cion asked.

"Create a bath of blood." She said.

"Two because Jasper is going to be drained to the core." Daisy notifies him.

"NOW!" Zaya familiar voice blasted through the room causing Alpha Cion and Grandpa Exon to stare at each other. "What's your last name?" Daisy asked Jasper who stare up at them both.

"Demargus," He manages to breathe. Daisy held his foot as Vanica stood at his head place one hand on the forehead while the other over his chest. A ball of fire radiates from her hand as she uttered loudly, "I call upon the last dying ancestor of Demargus,I call upon you to lend me your soul to drift among the living." She muttered as Japer body started to flutter.

Within seconds Vanica was standing in the darkness behind a large bush. The atmosphere was drench with Silver she could smell it, She stumbled to the ground. "We don't have much time, Jasper Is too weak," SHe muttered as Daisy stood up with her eyes flickering to pale yellow almost white.

"I thought I told you not to come," Vanica growl

"We'll argue about that later," Daisy said walking away from Vanica to look through the bush.

"Nica!" The familiar female voice called out, Vanica spurt up to see a snake guarding Venroy body as he stood lifeless on the ground body pale like he spent hours in the winter without blood. "What happen?" Daisy asked.

"Question later, They will be back," She said as the snake unwraps it's self from Venroy's body to reveal a dagger in his stomach. "I have seen that knife before," Daisy muttered. Vanica set the chains holding Venroy captive a fire and watch as the heat snap it away.

"How are we going to get him away, It looks like were underground," Daisy muttered.

"How do you know that?" Vanica asked.

"I just do, I can smell the soil it's too damp and drenches with too many unknown chemicals," She said scrapping up a hand full of dirt to sniff it. Vanica watch as the solid went into her skin and her body illuminate. Vanica collapsed again. "Venroy Can you hear me?" She asked.

"Roy don't you dare die on us," Daisy said touching causing Venroy to flutter away at the sound of his body cracking.

"They are coming," The snake hisses at them.

"Hold my hand," Vanica said as the snake crawl upon him, staring straight into his eyes before it whispered loud enough. "You got help, Now come and find me," It says before it vanishes in thin air. "Now what do we have here," A voice slurred as she recites the spell and that caused them to vanish before their eyes straight onto the lawn.

"Where are the bath?" Daisy shouted as she helps Venroy up. Another pain surge through his body, Vanica grip her head tightly as she fell on her knees. "Vanica!" Daisy Called out just as Alpha Cion rushed out. Everything around started to look blurry, Her heart started to beat rapidly.

"What's happening!" Alpha Cion growled loudly.

"Take them to the bloodbath," Grandpa Exon suggested.

"That won't help," Nathienel voice appear, Daisy, look up to see Nathaniel and Francine in their wolf form.

"What's happening?" Alpha Cion asked as Vanica flicker into a ball of fire and Venroy went Midnight Violet.

"They have been poisoned." He told them as he sways his hand causing the Twin to fall to the ground shivering and muttering inaudible words.
