"How long?"
"Huh?"
"How long did it take you?"
"How long did it take me to do?"
"To learn the spells and twist them."
"Oh that, it took me decades to learn and twist it into mine with lots of unspeakable things that happened along the line."
"Huh, it took you that long, and yet you haven't mastered it. Anyway, what did Thalia promise you to make you be on her side."
"She promised me money and power like no other, better than those I've conspired with."
"I see. I gotta tell ya, you are not good at this and you need a better life. I'll tell you what, you stop here and now and I will spare your life, how does that sound?"
"Hahaha, that's funny; and how do you intend to kill me, you're stuck in the quicksand.
"What quicksand?"
Tina snapped her eyes at the quicksand and didn't see Miranda there. She looked everywhere but couldn't see anything.
"You thought that little trick of yours could stop me? Nice try." Miranda said with a chuckle and stood at the back of Tina before moving away.
"Where are you? Don't be a coward and show yourself."
Miranda's laughter encoded in the dark room, "I gave you a chance at life but your stubbornness and greed prevented you from accepting it. Sadly, I only give one chance to people." Miranda said and sliced Tina's upper body into six pieces.
Tina was too shocked at how fast Miranda was before her upper body fell to the floor and the once dark room changed into the previous lightroom.
Miranda turned invisible before stepping out of the room the way she came with a grain. She sighed, "It's been a while since I killed someone, I never liked her anyways, she was too arrogant and voracious, what a shame she had to die like that."
"Mother witch."
"Ahh!" Miranda yelled and jumped in fright. "Annabelle, don't scare me like that! Wait, what are you doing here and how did you find me?"
A snow white skin girl with blonde hair and green eyes in a white tank top and blue baggy jeans was staring at Miranda with light in her green eyes.
"I followed your scent here."
"My scent, I thought I covered it?"
"Oh, you did. I got lost like 20 times trying to find you."
"Oh, you are good at finding people after all. So what do you want now that you have found me?"
"Nothing, I just got bored on my own and thought of looking for you because I know, you always have fun things to do, and I was right," Anna said, looking at the room Miranda came out from.
Miranda looked at the room Ann was looking at. "Oh that, that was nothing. People are waiting for me outside, we better not keep them waiting." Miranda said and started walking, Ann following behind her with excitement that Miranda didn't dismiss her.
***
Miranda and Anna stood beside Marietta and became visible.
Thalia, Chrid, Silas, and Lolla were shocked to see her come out of nowhere.
"The copycat is gone, you can do whatever you want now and not worry."
Marietta, who looked calm, turned to Miranda and thanked her before looking further and seeing an unknown girl.
"Haa, who is she?"
"My coven daughter, no biggie, she just missed me too much that's all," Miranda said with an annoyed growl and Ann giggled.
"Oh, okay."
"Who the hell are you?" Thalia asked, annoyed.
"You don't remember me, do you? Well, that's a little bit disappointing, but I didn't expect you to."
"Miranda, the one who gave you that scar on your left shoulder. Now you remember?"
Thalia looked at her with shock and realization. "You, I thought you died. I should have killed you there and there." Thalia said with anger obvious in her eyes.
"Oh please, as if you could ever beat me."
"Hum, what are you guys talking about?" Marietta asked, looking for Miranda to Thalia.
"Something that happened years ago," Miranda said, not looking at Marietta.
"21 years ago," Thalia said, not looking at Marietta.
"Wait, I thought you said you were stuck in the cave for decades, how does she know you and what happened 21 years ago."
"I singlehanded killed all your kind, the Halls pack," Thalia said with pride.
"You sick ass bitch!" Miranda yelled at Thalia.
"What, I was going to say it anyway, whether you were here or not."
"Wait, what do you mean my kind, and how were you there that day?"
"The day you were born, Thalia attacked your pack because she envied your pack and hated your mother for stealing the love of her life."
"What type of pack is it?"
"The hall pack is considered to be the closest thing to the moon goddess as so. The rest viewed them as the spawns of the devil since their alpha status didn't mean much in a pack full of pure-blooded alphas. So on their day of weakness, Thalia attacked and killed everyone there. She could have killed you too but your mother hid you under the floor, inside a wooden box. I couldn't go there physically, but I could clone myself outside the cave, but the power wasn't as if I were outside myself; so the moon goddess asked me to go stop her. When I got there, it was too late, she had killed your parents and everyone in the pack, so my clone fought her and gave her that scar on her left shoulder. She thought she had killed my clone but it later stood up and could you. I'm sorry."
"Hun, I have to say, you did deserve it. I mean just look at you, you turned out to be a wimp and a wolfless brat." Lolla said, her voice as cold as ice and empty as her heart.
Thalia laughed at what Lolla said and turned to look at her. "I think I'm starting to like you," Thalia said, still laughing and facing Miranda and Marietta.
Marietta almost fell to the ground, but thanks to Harley's quick reflex, he caught her before she fell.
Both Silas and Chris didn't say anything and just kept observing.
" How can you be so heartless Thalia, don't you have human feelings?" Lexy asked out of anger.
"Why should I? I've hated her long before she was born. I killed her kind, her parents and if I had found her that day, I would have killed her and saved me this stress; now, I'm going to finish what I started." Thalia said with insanity written all over her face. Her eyes had gone wild and mad and a grin was present on her lips.
Marietta sat on the floor crying and Harley, Lexy, and Liam went to hug and comfort her.
"Oh, how ineffective," Lolla said, looking at Marietta with irritation.
"Awwn, so fragile of you, it's a shame you're going to die in front of your friends, and none of them can stop me," Thalia said, running to Lexy yanking her off Marietta, flinging her towards a tree. Making her slam her back hard on it.
In a flash of an eye, she picked up Liam and tackled Zack, making him slam his back on a nearby rock before flinging him into the woods.
Marietta saw this and anger built up inside of her.
Silas, Lolla, and Chris were shocked at how fast and strong Thalia was. It looked like she had taken something before coming out to meet the Montgomery pack.
Thalia went after Miranda and Annabelle, she slammed Miranda on a tree and held Ann up on a tree, using her hand to strangle her.
Miranda charged after her, hitting her away from Ann. Miranda bent down to check on Ann, and almost immediately, Thalia picked her up by the neck and strangled her on a tree.
"I should have found your hiding spot and killed your kind too!" Thalia yelled, tightening her hold on Miranda's neck.
Ann went after Thalia, wanting to push her off Miranda but Lolla knocked her off her balance and she fell on the floor hard. Lolla stood above her, before going down to her level and hitting her.
Marietta had had enough, she released herself from Harley's hold and went after Lolla. She slashed Lolla's back with her claw and kicked her off Ann; before going after Thalia, hitting her in her side rib, breaking two ribs. Thalia took two steps back, her hand on where the broken ribs were.
Zack went to help Liam and Harley went to help Lexy.
Lexy, Liam, and Zack's backs hurt like hell. The three of them couldn't stand straightforward.
Thalia, Chris, Silas, and Lolla looked at Marietta in shock. "How's that possible? I watched your wolf spirit leave your body."
"Awwn surprise bitch, I'm back. Told you I would. Now, you're going to regret it." Monica said through Marietta.
