"How is this possible? My whole life I believed that my only power involved pyromania, but I just shot ice out of my own two palms. How can that be?" Lilia asked her mates as they were all sitting around the campfire in the living room after their battle. Millie was wrapping bandages around Sadie's arm to stop the bleeding while Millie had one loosely around her neck from when Finn almost killed her. She wasn't upset with him though. She knew that he would never do that on purpose and that it was Lisanne that made him do it. "Your father. Maybe he was an ice warlock and him and your mother passed their powers onto you." Finn explained his theory.

The blonde lifts her eyebrow. "Well it is very rare, but it is a possibility. Though Lilia never knew her father all too well because he left her mother after getting her knocked up with Lilia." Millie told her boyfriend after tying a knot with the gauze wrap around the red head's wound. The blonde wanted answers and she knew how she could get them, but she needed a phone. "I gotta go." "What? Where?" The brunette girl asked as the blonde stood up quickly and headed for the front door. "I'm going to Birdie's to call my mom and ask her why the hell I just froze a woman to death just a minute ago." Millie stood up and followed her to the door. "Lils, what if Winona comes back?"  "Just tell her that I'm doing some self discovering." And the blonde left with a slam of the door. Millie stood there, wondering what her and the other two do now.

Lilia caught Birdie, her boss, locking up the store for the day. "Mister Birdie, wait!" She shouted as she quickly ran toward him. Birdie looked up and smiled and we recognized the young girl. "Lilia, I haven't seen you in so long. I thought you quit." He chuckled. Lilia flashed a smile. "I've just been tied down at home is all. Listen, I need to borrow the store phone to make a very important and private phone call to my mother." She informed him with all seriousness. The older man could see that and nodded. "Sure, but there are two things I need you to do. Lock up the store when you're done," He holds up the store keys to her. "And open tomorrow morning for your shift." Lilia nods with a genuine smile before taking the keys kindly and with a thank you. "It's good to see you, Lilia. We'll talk more tomorrow. Have a good day." He said before strolling down the street to go home.

The teenager hurried inside, locked the door, and flicked the store lights on. She missed her work place more than she ever knew, from the smell of the old dusty vinyls, to the buzzing sound of the fluorescent lights on the ceiling. Lilia hurried behind the counter and picked up the store phone receiver before dialing her mother's phone number that she had memorized as a little girl when Noni thought she was old enough to make and take calls. The line rang for a good minute before the blonde got sent to voicemail. "Hey, this is Jane. I'll get you when I can. Leave a message." Lilia almost teared up that her mom wouldn't answer her call, but she never did. The blonde just left a message.

"Hey mom...I know this sounds pathetic, but I miss you. I just wish that you would pick up for once so we could talk...I need help. I need answers. I just...I-I need you to call me when you can. Oh but don't call back here and don't try to get back to me as soon as possible. This is just the store phone at my job. The phone at home had been thrown out after-...you know what, I'll tell you all about it when you call. I gotta go...bye mom." Lilia hung up the phone staring at the counter with tears in her eyes. The reason why she couldn't ask or speak of Lisanne was because she didn't trust any phone that Millie didn't dismantle for chips or microphones. All the blonde wanted was for her mother to speak to her once in a while.

"One, two, three!" Finn counted and the three teens all began to push the big lump of ice to get it off of the tree. They wanted to get Lisanne's cold dead body away from the coven. "Finn, it's no use." Millie gave up after tiring her arms and nearly freezing her hands. Sadie gave up too after pushing with her good arm. "Is there any chance that you can turn the ice into water?" The red head asked the boy while winding her wrist. "And unfreeze her? Hell no." "Don't worry guys, I'll take care of it." The blonde spoke, coming towards them through the woods from the front of the house.

Millie smiled. "There's our ice queen, stronger and more knowledgeable than ever. How was your talk with Jane?" The brunette asked as Lilia got closer. The girl shook her head. "Actually she didn't answer my call." The blonde said sadly while looking around at everyone. They looked pitiful. "Oh...maybe she's busy." Millie concludes, trying to not make the situation so sad. She knows how neglectful Lilia's mother is, but she wanted to seem like that she still cared about her daughter. Lilia smiled at the attempt before shooing everyone to the side and lifting her hand up to the ice. The other three moved out of her way before she shot fire from her hand, melting the ice and cremating Lisanne. All that was left was a pile of ashes.

"Oh wow." Winona's voice filled the quietness after what Lilia had done. The group of teens quickly turn their hands to find their supreme coming towards them from the front yard, wearing the black satin nightgown they last saw her in. Lilia was the first to immediately run up to her and wrap her arms around her shoulders while shedding a few tears. Sadie, Millie, and Finn soon followed the blonde's actions. Winona just shut her eyes and hugged everyone back, happy to be reunited with her family again after technically being kidnapped. Everything would be okay again. For now.

I'm sorry that this took a while to get out, I had work today and then straight after work I had to finish up my costume for Thursday and then I dealt with some personal things just now and like I really just feel so like...mentally and emotionally exhausted and drained. I feel like a dead battery.

What do you think will happen now that Lisanne is dead and Winona found her way home?🔮
