Enemies Everywhere

Lilith made her way out of the study and pretended to leave as she made her way back and hid so nobody that was passing by could see her. Lilith needs to know what was going on, and the only way she would be able to figure that out would be by listing in on the conversation taking place inside that study. "She is up to something." Those were the first words that Lilith heard as she found the right spot. Lilith recognized Luis's voice. He did not believe anything she said or did, and Lilith knew it could turn into a problem.

Lilith has always known that Luis did not like her. Every time Lilith suggested something that would be of some importance, Luis would always find something wrong with it. Whether it was an insignificant little detail or saying that it did not outwait all the damage that the action would create for the outcome that they would receive. Luis had never come out and told Lilith why he dislikes her so much, but she had an idea that it might be because of something that he might have seen.

Lilith had submerged herself in her own thoughts that she overlooked when Luis came out of the office and moved to box her in.

A few minutes had passed by when Lilith finally felt a presence behind her. She reacted by turning around, her hand at the ready to defend herself.

Lilith had the ability to observe anybody's power that she touches. Her power only worked when she came into physical contact with her victims. She observed the power of the other person and observed the life force of the other individual. This power that she had was a curse and a blessing. You could say, seeing as whenever Lilith needs a bust, she could easily recharge. But no power comes without consequences. Not many people acquire these powers because they become addicted and leave the host with a thirst for power that they will never satisfy.

Luis took hold of her hand before she would even lay a finger on him. Luis's powers were already acting weird he didn't need anybody taking any of the power that he still had. Looking into Lilith's eyes, Luis said, still holding her hand, "Didn't your parents ever tell you that it was rude to listen in to other people's conversations?"

"What are you talking about?" Lilith asked, a sense of confusion and a little bit of annoyance in her voice. "I was just thinking of what I was going to do in the next could of hours before the sun comes out."

Luis came closer into her, both of her hands captured by Luis and held at each side of her face. "Let me tell you, you may have him full, but I know that you are death and destruction to all of us."

"What?!"Lilith exclaims train to keep her composure in front of Luis. "I am none of those things."

"Time will tell," Luis said, moving back and away from Lilith as he let go of her hands.

It was becoming harder for Lilith to control her outrage, and it was starting to reflect in her eyes. She closed her eyes train to bring back her control. Luis just stood there, taking in her reactions. "Whatever, I have to go," Lilith said, moving around Luis. Luis gave her a look. "Just because you don't have places to go or people that you need to meet does not mean that I don't," Lilith said as she started to make her way out of the house.

Luis had stepped away from Lilith, but he could still see the rage that was reflected in her eyes before she closed them and tried to regain her control. "She is more trouble than we need right now," Luis said as he saw her leave her dark energy train to imprint into every available body. There were still many things that need to be done, and many pieces in the puzzle that still need to be put into place before any of the enemies would start to fall. Luis's last vision was the begging of a war that would either lead to a world of harmony or a world filled with danger and death, depending on the choices that would be made in the last couple of months.

Alina's body was lying on the ground, her eyes closed, and sweat covers her face. The pain that she had suffered as her memory returned had left her with pain all over her body.

"Finally, I will have my slave," Bernardo said, starting his move toward Alina's body. Before Bernardo could even get three feet near her, a wall of fire came up around her. "What the hell is this?" Bernardo asked as he trade to cross the ring of fire. The only thing that Bernardo achieve was to burn himself and to increase the fire.

"As I told you before, stay away from her," Sabro said, looking Bernardo over to make sure that he was not going to try something again.

Finally, Alina's eyes opened, and the fire started to retract. Brenda went over to her once the fire had gone out completely. "How are you feeling?" Brenda asked as she kneeled next to Alina.

"Like my head just slipped in two," Alina said, sitting up slowly with Brenda's help.

"You will be feeling much better once you are in your new home," Bernardo said as he saw his opportunity to take Alina.

Before Bernardo could reach her, Alina extended her hand, a surge of energy erupting from her hand, sending Bernardo tumbling back to the ground. Bernardo had gotten knocked out by the energy that had come out of Alina's hand.

"That was a good one," Sebastian said, looking around the man that had come with him and Bernardo. Sebastian kneeled next to Bernardo and shocked him to see if he would wake up, "You knocked him out, not bad." Sebastian said, looking up at Alina.

"I didn't even feel when you collected that energy," Mino said, looking from Bernardo laid out on the ground and back to Alina sitting next to Brenda.

"You are more amazing hen what people predicted." A man said as he came out of the dark cover that the allies provided.

Sabro, Min,o, and Sebastian position themselves in front of u as the man steps out of the darkened allies. "Come on, Sabro, I know that we haven't seen each other in a long time, but you couldn't off forgotten me to have you."

"I never forget a face, but just because you look like somebody I used to know does not mean you are him," Sabro said, not letting his guard down. Whit all that had occurred in the last years, there was no reason why he should trust this man.

"You have gotten smarter with time." The man clearly knows in the light of the post office said.

"If you are really Marcus, why did it take you so long to get here?" Sabro asked, looking at one of the people that he counted among his best friends.

"I have been around doing work here and there." Marcus answer as he took another step forward.

Alina had gotten up from the ground with Brenda's help, and she was looking at Marcus like a new specimen. Alina could feel the energy ways coming out of his body. They were all pure from any taint of bad feeling toward the,m although there was a sense that he was hiding something, none the less he could be trusted.

"Who send you?" Alina asked, clearing her throat.

"Someone that is waiting to see you," Marcus answers, avoiding answering completely.

"Did my uncle send you?" Alina asked with a clear voice. Marcus didn't have to respond to his silence, and the energy that surrounded him gave me the answer.

"We should go before my stocker decides it's a good time to wake up," Alina said, walking over to Marcus and looking him in the eyes. "Lead the way."

Marcus cleared his throat and looked over at Sabro, who just gave him a knowing smile. "I will get one of the boys to take black beauty back to the garage."

"No, I am taking her. Let's go, Brenda." Alina said as she started to make her way to Alina's car.

"Alina, do you know where you are going?" Marcus asked as he moved closer to her.

Alina looked at him and turned her sight to Sabro, "Take him with you and make sure that you guys keep up." Alina said as she spent the door to her car and moved to get in.

"Are you sure about where we are going?" Brenda asked as she was sitting in the car.

"I am pretty sure I can find my way there, and if we get lost on the way,y we will never admit it to anybody," Alina said as she started the engine and prepared to drive away.

"We can always use a locator spell to find your old house know that you remember everything," Brenda said, looking at her friend.

"I remember something's from the flashes of memories that came to me," Alina said to Brenda. That was one of the reasons that Alina wanted Brenda to drive with her.

"Don't worry, everything will come back to you with a little time," Brenda said, looking at Alina with understanding in her eyes.

"I know. I just hope that is soon," Alina said, shaking off the desperation of knowing who she was and who her family is.

People leave trails of their energy behind, and the longer you are in one place, the greater your energy accumulation. Even though it had only been a couple of minutes since Alina had seen Marcu,s his trail was still fresh, hand from what she could remember from the flash,s Alina would make her way home.

Lilith's eyes were still bright red, her anger still fuming inside her. How could this be possible? Alina was supposed to be dead; all of her family was supposed to be dead. The last time Lilith had seen Bernardo, he had told her that the Luna's were dead. Lilith could not believe that Bernardo had lied to her. He had a lot to respond to; Lilith was furious. Bernardo had better be careful, Lilith knew how to hold a grudge better than anybody else was to hold a grudge and how to get even with those that betray her.
