Chapter 70: Every Word, Every One
Endlessly, She Said; AFI Previous | Chapter Listing | Next “This is in our price range, got some decent space,” Cassandra said, nodding at the screen. She and Drake were flipping through house listings on his laptop. There were some options, at least, and she was going to speak with a realtor later to see what they could afford and how much in loan they could get. There was a lot to think about suddenly. Everyone was trying not to make it sound like this was a big deal, but, it kind of was, and that reality made it harder to hide the tripping over it they were all doing.…

Chapter 69: The One Who Cared After All
Summit; Skrillex, Ellie Goulding Previous | Chapter Listing | Next “I thought my heart was going to quit with his.” Drake snorted. “Yeah, mine tried, too,” he said. So far, though, Ezio had gone stable again, and remained that way. Ethren hadn’t gone back to wherever he’d come from, but Morgyn wasn’t quite ready to talk to him just yet and had been ignoring he was there. He seemed to understand, so Morgyn didn’t try to explain anything to him. Instead, the brunet was sitting in one of the waiting areas, talking to Drake. Cassandra had gone to make cocoa. Liberty had to go to work, unfortunately, but Morgyn wouldn’t…

Chapter 68: Eternal
Eternal; Evanescence Previous | Chapter Listing | Next Mortain, France; 1770 That was painful. The only reason why, probably, was because Ezio had gotten in Jean’s way like that. It wasn’t as if Ezio cared too much. The worst, he figured, that happened was, Jean finally killed him, and truth be told, that might be some kind of a blessing. Ezio had nothing left to live for, anyway. Well, except him. It was a wonder why he’d even bothered fighting through Ezio’s instinctive snarling at him. Ezio could be a little terrifying, when he chose to be. Then, he was still a half-grown boy back then, and wasn’t terribly skilled…

Chapter 67: Signs Don’t Show
Your Biggest Mistake; Ellie Goulding Previous | Chapter Listing | Next If she insisted on being back there, she could use to be a little quieter about it. Ra never did like her, but she was useful, at least, most of the time. Presently, she was being more of a thorn in the side than Ra would prefer she was, but no one asked him. It was likely for the best. Well, her prized vampire warrior was currently a pile of sand, it was no wonder she was bothering him. Ra’s magic was the subtle kind, though Ra himself wasn’t a necromancer. It was… a gift, if you would, from…

Chapter 66: Running Out of Time
Hello; Adele Previous | Chapter Listing | Next Some time ago by now, she’d decided she wasn’t terribly fond of how bright the lights were in hospitals. Cassandra had been fortunate enough thus far to never need to be in one. Anymore, she envied her younger self never needing to be in a hospital. She wished she hadn’t needed to be in this one right now, but Ezio was still recovering, and would likely be for a while yet. Cassandra flipped between being restless and being too still. They’d only been here a couple days now, but she’d ended up in something of a cycle. She’d spend an entire day…

Chapter 65: Calling Me Home
Lights; Ellie Goulding Previous | Chapter Listing | Next “He’s a heart patient,” they’d said, almost at the same time. “And he was just electrocuted.” They didn’t need to know that it was a magical lightning bolt fired by a psychotic ancient vampire. They didn’t need to know that he’d dove in the way of it to stop it from reaching Morgyn. They didn’t need to know that they’d teleported here and this event had only happened around five minutes ago, though it felt like six hours. They didn’t need to know that was Morgyn’s heart in their hands, and if they lost him, a lot of Morgyn was going…

Chapter 64: Berserkir
Berserkir; Ezio’s Family Valhalla Remix; Samuel Kim Previous | Chapter Listing | Next This whole thing was a mess, and there was no denying that. Morgyn kept fidgeting with just about anything in range of the brunet, had been jittering off and on since they’d all met up. Today was the day. The sun was barely up. Morgyn had probably way too many cups of coffee during preparation stage, but they were all together, the spell casters all paired off with a vampire that could use mist form, and they were invading magic realm today. It felt very weird to be thinking that they were invading magic realm. Morgyn had…

Chapter 63: Never Cared For What They Do
Nothing Else Matters; Metallica Previous | Chapter Listing | Next Now that they knew the potion worked as it was intended to work, all that was left was making enough of it to fill several bottles and arm everyone that wasn’t a vampire with one. There weren’t a lot of them that weren’t vampires going on this little excursion no thanks to needing to get past the barrier, if the damned barrier even still functioned with magic dead, but the more of them that had one, the better. Unfortunately, the vampires were also susceptible to getting killed by it, and Sarnai had a habit of throwing people into things. Maybe…

Chapter 62: Careful What You Wish
King Nothing, Metallica Previous | Chapter Listing | Next His fingers were tingling. That was the only thing he was really aware of, and he supposed it didn’t terribly matter what else there was to be aware of. He was supposed to be unconscious, but suddenly he wasn’t anymore, and Ezio couldn’t very easily say why. If he had to guess though, maybe it was the vampire. He could sense her prodding him mentally. She’d put him into a vampire-coma, it’d seem. Well that had to have done wonders for his state of health, but whatever. If he died, no big loss, right? Ezio’s fingers curled up, balling into a…

Chapter 61: It’s All a Mystery
Let it Be; Blackmill Ft Veela Previous | Chapter Listing | Next If anyone asked, and so far she’d been asked by at least five people a total of around twelve times, she was fine. Liberty Lee was not depressed. Or at least, she wasn’t depressed for the reasons everyone seemed to think she was. It was a little more complicated than having a crush on Morgyn, but it wasn’t like Liberty wanted to talk about it. For the most part, she’d much rather pretend it hadn’t happened at all. That wasn’t working in her favour so well, but she supposed that was to be expected, too. She had physics…
