Astro and Wonderman: (The Adventures of Team Pixie) Book 9: The Book of Secrets

Revival of the Dark Anchients

(Katheryn's point of view)

Before stood lots of humans in transition to their vampire form. Daniel was taking care of most of them so far. Along with the bodies that lay on the ground with the transitioning vampires was the blood. I got my hands full of blood and drank it. Daniel and I had a long day discussing with the new born vampires and getting them on our side. We told them all the same lie in order for them to fight for us. We made Astro and her family look like monsters compared to us. It was a long day of work but at least we'd gotten some things done. Once they were all asleep me and Daniel set out on a mission to the dark ancient stones. They were where Sarafina last left them.

"So what was this idea of yours that you had?" Daniel asked.

"You have a book that's as ancient as time right. What if we could use that book to create a potion to bring things that are really old back to life. In theory it should work if it's coming from an ancient source itself" Katheryn explained.

"So your suggesting I make a revival potion?" Daniel asked me.

I nodded.

"That's pure genius. I never thought of that kinda idea" Daniel admitted.

So he wrote down the necessary things for his creation to come to life and indeed it stood right before us.

I grabbed his bottle of potion and poured it on the stones. It didn't seem to work at first though.

"Hm. That's odd. How come it isn't working?" Daniel asked.

Suddenly I bit my arm with my vampire teeth and some blood started flowing out. I then put the bottle over the blood and the blood went into the potion. It started bobbling up and it slowly changed into a red color. After it changed color I poured the potion on a stone and it worked. Before us now stood one of the dark ancients. I then did the same with the remaining 5 stones.

"What did you revive us for?" A girl asked us.

"We need you. We see a future where everything is taken over by the darkness. However in order to attain this dream of ours we need your help to gather as many of the darkest and most powerful of evil minds for us. Then once we work together the world will truly become one with the darkness" I told them.

They looked at us and glared. "You better be telling the truth Katheryn"

"She's with me. You trust me don't you?" Daniel stated.

"Of course we trust you. After all we wouldn't be here if it weren't for you Daniel" they voiced.

"Alright then. Let us work together to bring the Dragonfires down" I smiled an evil smile.

"Yes. Let us work together to defeat the Dragonfires" they agreed.

We all shared an evil laugh and our official alliance began.

(2 days later)

(Star's point of view)

"Guys! I need your help!" A girl we came to know as Lizzie voiced. (If you've ever seen the original this is a reference to the original but unfortunately Lizzie is being taken out of the series)

"What happened?" I asked her.

"Someone took my little sister. She was asleep in her car and something with a really pale face and red eyes grabbed her out of the car. They were really fast too so I couldn't follow them. I came to you guys because your a group of powerful wizards so I thought you could help" the girl stated.

"You don't think?" Lex motioned towards Pixie.

"How can it be her? Mom made her to where she can't transform anyone into a vampire and she was the last one left" Pixie replied.

"What if they brought her back to life though. We've done it before so why can't they?" Plete suggested.

"That still doesn't explain why she would take a random person from a car for whatever reason she wanted. Last time I checked that's not really how the evil society works. You have to owe them something for them to get back at you" Pixie replied.

"She had nothing to do with Katheryn" Lizzie stated.

"Maybe she transformed a person into a vampire to not be lonely" Plete suggested then.

"Katheryn would have more of a reason to create vampires than just loneliness. There's gotta be something else" Loki added.

"What if they are trying to start a war?" Bree asked.

We all got quiet. In theory it could be possible but it didn't quite seem like Katheryn's idea alone. Something about this whole thing made it feel like it was something much worse.

"Well why don't we worry about this when we get back. We have a sister to save" I told them.

So we headed to the castle that Lizzie showed us and we were shocked. It was Leo's castle.

Suddenly we heard noises all around us. There was also a sword pointed towards us.

"What do you want!" A girl with blonde hair and red eyes asked.

We turned to face her and around her stood a circle of vampires. This was definitely something more I thought.

"We want my sister that you stole from me" Lizzie bravely demanded.

"I'm afraid she's part of my property now. Sorry but finders keepers you see" Katheryn said coming down from a tree and landing on the ground.

"Katheryn" Pixie stated.

"Pixie, the screwed one" Katheryn laughed at the joke she just made up then.

"Return the little girl now or else" I stated.

"A little too late for that. Being as she's a teen she's perfect for my other vampires and I'm afraid she's already been bitten" Katheryn stated.

Lizzie covered her mouth as tears fell down her eyes.

"Awe. Would someone else like to join my circle of vampires?" Katheryn asked.

Lizzie started holding out her hand to Katheryn but Pixie stood in front of her now.

"We won't negotiate with you. We came here for her little sister" I voiced determined.
