Blake stood up from her bed and headed towards the bathroom. She stripped and turned the shower on. The warm water hitting her tense shoulders, which caused her to relax. After washing up, she got out and grabbed the towel by the door. She walked out and began to search for clothes that she was gonna wear today. Once Blake had finished ,she head down stairs already smelling the delicious breakfast that her mom made her. Finally reaching the kitchen she saw her mom looking outside, looking lost in thought.
" You ok, mom?", she said as she headed towards the table, wanting to eat already to stop her stomach from growling. Turning around, Katherina couldn't help but smile at Blake,
" Yea im ok , now go ahead and eat up i can hear you stomach from here" she said smiling at her. Blake chuckled and began chomping down but making sure to not to eat too fast.
" You look cute today by the way" Katherina said as she drank her coffee while facing the table that Blake was currently sitting at with a empty plate now. Blake smiled and touched the top of her head where the little flower head band layed.

" Is the head band too much?", Blake said as she walked to the sink and put her dish in

" Is the head band too much?", Blake said as she walked to the sink and put her dish in. " No not at all, and wash that",she said before walking away towards the living room. Blake rolled her eyes but with a small smile, grabbing the sponge and soap before cleaning the dish. Once done, she headed to the living room only to see her mother grabbing her purse before turning to her. " Where you going?" while walking to the sofa and leaping onto it. " Im going to the French Quarter to go get some more ingredients, wanna come?" Katherina said as she walked close to the door. " Wait mom, you are actually going into town?" She said as she stood up straighter. Katherina nodded her head while giving her a sad smile. Blake was suprised at not only that her mom was going into town after all the problems they had in New Orleans but that she was risking getting caught by Marcel. Before they had moved, her mom and Marcel had a relationship where if one of them did the other a favor, they would always repay them back whenever they needed help. Blake did miss the quarter though, hearing the music in the morning and all the festivals that were thrown but that all changed when Marcel decided to use Katherina for power. Luckly Katherina caught on to his plan and also found out what he was doing to the witches, so she knew she had to take Blake and her self out before they were dragged further into Marcel's arms. Blake then noticed that she didnt answer her mom and decided that she was not going to let her mom go into town without her. She nodded her head and told her that she was gonna put her shoes on and they can be on their way.

~Blake's p.o.v~

I walked up stairs, into my room and put on my shoes. When i finished i walked to my bed and reached under it and pull out a briefcase. I opened it and saw the knives and guns that my mom got me just for protection. I pulled out my gun holster and strapped it to my thigh. I put the pistol in it and dragged two daggers and throwing knives. I lifted up leg and put the two daggers in each boot and the other two in my waistband. I hurriedly put the briefcase under my bed and made sure i had a jacket covering my holster. I looked in the mirror while thinking about what would happen when we return to the quarter. I know that my mom can handle herself and can kill anybody with a snap of her fingers but i promised to myself that i will always protect my mom and im sticking to that promise. I ran down stairs with my phone in hand and saw mom at the door waiting. I walked out the door and head towards to the car and hopped in. I saw mom quickly locked the door and walked towards the passenger seat, got in and started the car. I smiled at her and turned on the music as she pulled out the drive away. I knew the drive to the French Quarter will take a while so i laid back and closed my eyes.
