BIRTHDAY PARTY

At the white house, there were hundreds of thousands people and all were decently dressed with birthday gifts for the celebrant.

They were all busy eating, chatting, dancing and listening to the cool music as well as the entertainments.

In another room beautifully decorated were the family of the celebrant

Jude, lucy, Joel, Jessy, Zhion, damien and Steve.

Jude and Lucy were the charming couples, Joel and Jessy were twins, Zhion, damien and Steve were Esther's children. Esther was not there because she was still busy planning on how to take revenge on Jude and his new family.

They were all troubled, they don't seem happy.

"Honey, I'm so scared... I don't want anything to happen to her. I hope she'll be fine after today" Lucy was very scared of losing her only daughter.

"step-mom, don't worry we are all here for her" Damien told her not to think too much "Daddy, is it necessary to throw a birthday party, when we don't know her fate yet?" he asked Jude.

"I know her and what she's capable of doing, she's stronger than everyone here" joel said.

"yes, it's not her fault if she finds out about her true self today. we have been hiding it from her but today... " Zhion was worried about her safety.

"Hehehee, you guys are funny. trust me nothing will happen to her, she's the one who will restore peace and rule over us" Steve really believed in danielle.

"Enough of this from you guys, Danielle is no more a child. I believe in her so much....Even though I have not been the best father to her, I hope she forgives me for today" Jude said in a low tone. he didn't like the idea of giving danielle out to jeffrey in marriage.

"Here you are Mr. lane, I've been searching for you" A male figure appeared in their room.

The male figure acknowledged their presence with a condescending sneer "hehehe, see who's here. my soon to be brothers in-law". The male figure is no other person but Jeffrey.

"Huh" Zhion snorted 'I knew it, he's up to something. I have to find a way to stop him' he muttered.

"Jeffrey! you must be very stupid" Lucy said with a harsh tone. "honey, is this your plan?, you want to give our only daughter to this selfish man..."

" Ohh! I didn't know I was... how are you Mrs. Lane". The male figure asked

"You all shut up!, have you forgotten how he helped me and also saved danielle's life..." Jude roared like an angry lion " If it's not for him, I couldn't have reached to this level".

"What are you talking about, this man here has never done anything good for us." Lucy said.

"Don't you know that there's a streak of sadism in his nature" damien uttered

"Daddy, are you not aware of what this man has do...n..e... " Zhion was about to say something, he felt a heavy pressure pressing him down. he can't talk any further. Jeffrey looked at him with killing aura.

"haha, little boy... why are you quiet. Say it out, haha foolish people" he turned facing Jude "as for you, remember our agreement. tonight will be a great night for us".

"I will try my best, come on everyone let's go down stairs" Jude invited everyone to the main hall.

Lucy and the boys can only grit their teeth to get through it.

*******

Meanwhile,

Danielle's journey to the white house was a boring one. Their car has stopped several times due to traffic jam.

"Today is really a busy day" Aliyah sighed.

"yes, it is... I'm famished" Danielle retorted. She was busy thinking of something else.

"ain't you excited?" Aliyah asked.

"about what?" danielle said

"ahh, today nah... is it not your birthday. you don't look excited about today. seems like you are worried" Aliyah commented

"Aliyah, how will you feel when you realize that someone has evil plans for you and your family on your birthday?" Danielle asked her.

Aliyah glared at her for some seconds before answering "I will be so heart broken and if the person is one of the most trusted in my family, I don't mind fighting with my last drop of blood".

"So you suggest I should fight..." Danielle said.

Aliyah's gawked "what! are you for real. who's after your life?"

Danielle "I don't know..." Their car suddenly pulled over. "What is going" she asked.

"little miss, there's something blocking our path and it glittering" The man in black suit said to her.

"Go and take it out of the road" She ordered.

"okay little Miss" The men in black suit responded and left to carry out the order.

Outside the car, there were other people who have tried to take it out but they failed. Some were injured due to the force and power from the box, only those who are pure can touch it and be teleported to the purity world.

The men in black went to where the box was "stand back lest you will be trampled to death. there's a terrible force behind the box" A man called silas warned them "I'll check it out" Silas told them.

"Okay, go ahead please but make it snappy" The men in black suit said to silas.

Silas approached the glittering box, he recited some magic words before he could touch the box he heard a voice "Pure heart, pure witches/vampires blood, pure in whole. Step forward and come to me" The voice was very sweet to the ears. Silas touched the box and found out that he was being drawn into the box, he started screaming for help but no one was able to help him.

Everyone were dumbfounded and watched him disappear from their sight. they don't know where he was, either he's alive or dead, the men in black went back and narrated everything to little miss danielle.

"What happened?" She asked curiously

"I'm sorry little miss but we can't get the box out of the road. A man decided to help but as he touched the box he vanished into thin air and he's no where to be found" They answered elegantly.

"Then let's wait a little" she said.

"Okay" They retorted and went back to their duty.

They waited for thirty minutes but the box still remained the same.

"Aliyah, I need your help" danielle said

"okay, I'll be happy to help" Aliyah replied with smile.

"I want you to go to the white house and pretend to be me incase if I didn't come back" danielle held her hand "please don't question me, do as I tell you please"

Aliyah looked at her eyes and accepted the request "what are friends for, I'll do anything for my best friend and sister" they hugged each other.

danielle stepped down and said to the men in black

"I'll be going down to check it"

"little miss, I'm sorry but we won't allow you. we don't want to loose our job" they said to her.

"It's okay, Aliyah knows what to do" she left, they tried to stop her but she was unstoppable.

Danielle approached the glittering box before she could touch it a voice said to her "Oh chosen one, My Master and Our Goddess. thy faithful servant have been waiting for you. The one with the most purest heart, purest blood of witches/vampires, pure in whole. step forward, we await your arrival"

"Who are you and why did you block the road" Danielle asked.

"If only our master will step forward we will tell her everything she needs to know" the voice said to her again.

She was confused and decided to try. She touched the box and immediately there was a crack. The box opened and inside was a book sealed "Master, you have successfully opened the box. it's time to break the seal"

"How?" She asked

"Just say the magic words there" the voice said again

She recited the magic words and the weather changed.

The rumble of thunders was heard and there appeared several thunders and headed towards the book. The thunder met the book and immediately a light shone throughout the entire city.

It lasted for about twenty minutes before it reduced.

"What happened" some people around were confused and began to question each other.

"see it's a human" a little child pointed out.

"Wow!" they all exclaimed.

Danielle was still standing at the same position "Master, thank you for releasing me. I owe you alot" A female figure appeared infront of Danielle.

"Here is the book, it's all yours and belongs to you"

"You.... I think I've seen you somewhere" Danielle said.

"Of course we have met uncountable times in your dream" The lady said.

"What is this book for" Danielle asked

"Come with me, I'll explain everything to you" The lady said "By the way I'm mira".

"Nice meeting you mira, I'm danielle" They both vanished without a trace.

"Where did they go to... See, the box is gone too" the people around gave a confused account of what had happened.

"I know you are safe dani, please let's go" Aliyah told them to continue.

They drove off to the white house.
