Disclaimer: I do not own the characters, that is K. Harrison's right. But because she refuses to put my girls together as it should be I have to fill that void with my own happy thoughts of them together.

Rachel sat back on the sofa as Ivy walked her parents out to their car. She was exhausted once Laura realized that Rachel was going to be an effective leader they were able to come to a moderate tolerance that Rachel would like to think more fondly as a seize fire until, it wasn't.
Laura was just the beginning of the trouble she was going to have. There was going to be a true backlash for becoming a "master vampire" over night. But the good thing about the True Soul was that she had most of the Vampiric bylaws in her head. Not that she had too many plans of following them. But she knew them, it was like a crash course of Vampires for Dummies.
She rolled her eyes when she heard her scrying mirror vibrating on the counter. Groaning she lifted herself off the sofa and headed to the kitchen and placed her hand on the glass.
"Morgan." she muttered.
"Hello Rachel this is Virbellio, we met at Dalliance. " came a grating voice, with it's pompous assumptions.
"Ok?" Rachel rolled her eyes this better not be about another tulpa she was going to the EverAfter and going to rip someone throat out.
"Right I wouldn't expect you to remember me. " he sighed. "Listen I've hear from the grapevine that you're branching out and looking for a more proficient teacher."
"Oh you did, did you," Rachel laughed and leaned against the counter. "and who did you hear this from?"
"Oh I can't remember exactly who, mind you but I would like to send you my Nadaljuj." he said sweetly.
Rachel pursed her lips at the thought of demons sending her resumes for teaching positions, might not be such a bad idea. "And tell me, what areas are you proficient in?" the demon started to raddled off things that Rachel rather not know about when she started to sneeze. "Hold on, that must be my other line" she muttered. She lifted her hand off the glass and touched it again. "Morgan."
"Itchy witch who are you talking to?" Al demanded heated that her line had apparently had a busy signal.
"Virbell-something or other he is sending me his Nadaljuj."
"De bas niveau!" he shouted. "That morionem isn't able to distinguish his periculosi curses from his felix diripio." he muttered. "Rachel I implore you to leave your learning to solely myself and Newt as she has stated that she is planning on spending time topside herself, I hope that you know what you are getting your self into with her."
"Al your rambling, darling." Rachel laughed. Ivy came in and frowned at Rachel conversing with her scrying mirror. "I'm busy now Al, can I call you some other time, unless you had something else that you needed to tell me."
"W-well I had…no that is all Rachel. I'll see you on Monday at 3am. We have much to talk about, I think." Al stuttered and Rachel wasn't able to help but laugh at the confusion that he left through their connection.
Ivy stood piling the dishes from the table and heading to the sink there was an edge to her voice and Rachel sighed at Ivy's possessiveness. "What did Al want?"
"Just checking up on me, there seems to be a rumor that I'm looking for a new teacher he is advising against it." Rachel set a 'do not disturb' message on the scrying mirror and made her way to Ivy wrapping her arms around the sullen vampire. "Nothing to be worried about, tonight wasn't as bad as it could have been." she started kissing the back of Ivy's neck.
"No," she whispered her body relaxing back into Rachel. "That was the first time my mother ate in 10 years, I know you spelled her so that it wouldn't be painful, I thank you for that she misses things like that."
"I figured that." Rachel admitted. Rachel pulled back and leaned again the opposite counter watching Ivy finish the dishes. "We're going to have to find a way to make her happier. She's miserable, she hates what she is doing to your dad." Rachel sighed. "But she wants to protect her family, her line...the woman clearly wants grand children." Rachel chuckled.
"How do you know all this?" Ivy demanded as she dried the last mug and placed it into the cabinet
"Master Vampire, love." Rachel pulled Ivy back into her arms. "Can we be perfect housewives later?" Rachel whispered running her fingers through Ivy's dark hair. Smirking when Ivy moaned she pulled her closer then lifted Ivy onto the counter using the vampire powers. "How about we just forget the dishes?"
"Right, dishes are over rated." Ivy whispered groaning when Rachel ran her fangs down Ivy's neck. "Oh god."
"Rachel will do." Rachel chucked kissing the exposed skin on Ivy's neck. "I can't get enough of you." Eliciting goose bumps on Ivy's skin. Rachel ran her hands down Ivy's back pulling her closer as she fitted herself between Ivy's legs. "Pretty Ivy in a dress." she murmured against Ivy's lips as she ran her hands back into Ivy's hair and pulled her closer melting their lips together in a soulful kiss.
Ivy moaned, eyes closed, back arched like a bow relishing in Rachel's sweet torched. She fisted her hands into Rachel's hair her fingernails digging into her scalp, causing Rachel to moan into the kiss.
Rachel slipped her fingers under hem of Ivy's dress, running her fingers over the now exposed skin inching her way to the outer lace of Ivy's panties. Smirking when Ivy shivered under her. "My sweet, sweet Ivy." she whispered pinching the skin under Ivy's ear with her teeth gently.
"Oh god." Ivy's body spasmed slightly, before she wrapped her legs around Rachel and held Rachel to her. "Oh god please Rachel, more."
Rachel smirked but didn't bite Ivy harder instead she slipped her fingers past the panties and ran her fingers through the slick folds that she found. "We'll get there." she promised nipping at Ivy's ear lobe. "I can smell how ready you are, how turned on you are. Tell me is it because you know I'm dying to do this?" she asked as she flicked Ivy's sensitive nub that throbbed for her attention. Ivy panted into Rachel's ear. "Or maybe because of this?" Rachel quickly slid two fingers into her lover, her own body pulsing at the way Ivy tightened around her.
She quickly set a rhythm with her fingers matching the thrust of her own hips, soon they were both breathless and Ivy was clawing at Rachel trying to reach Rachel to bring her as much pleasure as she was feeling. But Rachel evaded her focusing on Ivy, timing her every move to the subtle movements, or gasps that Ivy was making. She knew when she felt the slightest shift inside Ivy as every muscle starting to tighten, how her hands went slack and her head fell back.
Rachel kept her place with her fingers and hips, kissed Ivy softly on the lips then latched into her delicate neck, sinking her fangs into the beautiful ski, at the same time she curled her fingers and hit Ivy's hidden love spot. Their aura's tuned, Ivy dissolved into erotic spasms , then leaned over and sunk her fangs into Rachel's pulsing neck. Rachel felt like lightening hit her, every sanction of her body reverberated with power, love, and pleasure. She lost control of her magic and flooded Ivy with everything that she was feeling, due to their connection it was like a closed circuit that ran in a loop. Crashing into over and over again,
There was a flash of light into the room, then Rachel was forced backward into the sink, her body was still shaking. Ivy slid off the counter her body pooling into a heap on the ground. "Rachel?" she whispered in-between broken gasps.
Rachel was vaguely aware that she being talked to. That there was a constant vibration coming from her scrying mirror. That there were little winged creatures squealing, and that someone was picking her up.
"Come on Rachel's lets get you into bed." came a gruff voice, she smirked at the werewolf and snuggled into his chest. She could just hear Ivy following after them, it seemed she wasn't walking so well.
~}|{~
Rachel woke up feeling like she had been set on fire. Her skin burned all over, her hair was tangled mess and Ivy was snoring? Yes ivy was snoring next to her. The sun was high in the sky, and was leaking into the usually dark room. Groaning she slipped out of bed on wobbling legs and headed to the window to close the black out drapes Ivy had specially ordered. She slipped into the bathroom and chuckled at her appearance her hair was all over the place, and if she didn't know better it was several inches longer. She quickly relieved her bladder, took a shower and slipped on a pair of cotton shorts and a cotton t-shirt of Ivy's…what it was softer.
She made her way to the kitchen, scrunching up her nose at the funny burnt smell that was all over the room. There was a funny scorch mark on the kitchen counter and floor. Her eyes hadn't adjusted to the light in the kitchen, she closed the drapes to the window in front of her and went about making the coffee.
"Good morning -ll" Rachel looked over to the hanging pot rack to see nearly 100 pairs of eyes looking down at her. It was like something out of a Disney nightmare.
"Morning." she said with double raised eyebrows, looking around to see if there was something going on that she wasn't prepared for.
"Papa, said we had to stay in here until you and Ivy woke up. Jaul is fetching him now, he was out scouting the line." Jamilla one of Jenks youngest stated.
"Ok?" Rachel wasn't sure how to respond. She quietly went about making herself a bagel as she waited for the coffee to be ready. She was just pulling the coffee cup out of the cabinet when Jenks flew into the kitchen.
"So…?" Jenks asked with a smirk, then whistled and motioned for the kids to leave the house.
"So what?" Rachel asked looking at him with confusion. "Why is it so damn bright in here?" she mumbled then reached and turned off the light switch.
"It's as bright as it usually is at three in the afternoon." Jenks said coming to hover over her face. "Your eyes are still silver."
"Silver?" Rachel though back to looking at herself in the mirror and realized that he was right. "I wonder why that is."
"Could have something to do with the scorch marks, your mirror still vibrating, the ringing of every church bell in the six blocks surrounding the area, or finding you and Ivy nearly unconscious last night."
Rachel stopped pouring her coffee and looked at Jenks with wide eyes. "Shit that wasn't a dream?"
"Nope." he laughed. "What the hell happened?"
"I don't know, is Ivy ok?" she went to leave to check on her.
"She's fine, better then she has been in a while I would guess the way she's sleeping. I checked on her first." he landed standing on the rim of her coffee cup. "So what happened?"
"I think I lost control of my magic." Rachel muttered snatching up her scrying mirror. "I'll call Al and see what he thinks." she placed her hand on the mirror and instantly regretted it. There were so many voices, frantic ones, droning ones, and nothing was a bad as Al's frantic, demanding droning voice. Within her mind she popped up a bubble to protect herself from all but one voice. "Al," she said softly.
"You're alive!" his voice came back instantly.
"Yes what's going on, has something happened?"
"Newt is going crazy! She thinks someone took you out, she's killing everyone, thinking she's next! What the hell happened topside, were you under attack?"
"No nothing like that." Rachel muttered. "Give me five minutes, I'll be right there." Rachel looked over at Jenks. "Listen the EverAfter is under attack, I need to head down there. Everyone thinks that I'll might be under attack I'm going to put the church under a protection spell, listen don't …I know how you feel about this, but I can't leave here without knowing your safe."
Jenks nodded "Ok," he whistled and pixy children surrounded them he did a quick head count. "I have them all here, Wade is upstairs Ivy is sleeping."
"OK the circle is going up in a few minutes," Rachel ran outside casting the protective spell around church. Then she leapt into the line tuned her aura and thought of Al's laboratory.
"Damn my dame you taught yourself to jump?" Al said bewildered, seeming to forget momentarily what had been happening.
"Al can we talk about that later? I've never been to Newt's rooms while conscious, can you jump us there?"
"She's in the middle of fountain Square killing herself some demons." Al said grabbing Rachel's hand and jumping them to the frontlines.
The minute Rachel hit the fountain she took in what she saw, it was an epic battle and they were loosing. Newt had lost her damn mind and the entire EverAfter was suffering for it.
"Al get everyone in side the fountain circle. As fast as you can." she didn't wait for his nod instead she made her way to Newt deflecting spells that headed her way being bounced off protection circles of the demons under attack. "Newt!" she tried to reach out to the queen of the damned, but she was beyond calming at this point.
Looking over her shoulder she noticed that most of the demons were in the circle, gritting her teeth she called upon the line that she'd made when she'd been forced into the EverAfter, knowing internally that, that line would be the strongest line for her to channel. She wrapped the fountain square in her protection circle, they entire population trapped inside cheered in their relief.
"You! This is all you're fault!" Newt started shooting Latin and whipping up something that Rachel just knew was going to be bad.
"Calm down and talk to me before I have to resort to something that I will regret, Coraurum."
Newt stopped mid spell, and looked at Rachel in confusion. "How do you know my true name, I haven't heard it uttered in centuries."
Rachel sighed in relief and looked at Al who was looking at her with wide eyes. "Newt, please. Stop this for a minute and lets talk what happened?"
"How are you alive? I felt you, it felt like when my sisters died. There was too much power and they combusted. How are you still here? They… they didn't try to kill you?"
"No, no one tried to kill me. What do you mean you felt me die?" Rachel stood in front the demon who had now warped into a creature that eerily reminded Rachel of Skimmer.
"I could feel the raw magical energy you were channeling, it's too much for one being. It rang all the bells in the EverAfter, the earth quaked. And then I just wasn't able to feel you any longer, I just knew you were dead and I was next."
"I passed out. I didn't come to until about a half hour ago."
"I can feel the tread that binds us now, stronger then before actually." Newt admitted. "So then why did they attack me, if they didn't attack you?"
Rachel looked at the demons all happily locked in her bubble all happier with the lesser of the two demons. "My guess is that they thought you had killed me." Rachel shrugged. "Ok, so we have an agreement you're not going to try to kill anyone…. Unless something new arises?
"You have my vow." Newt nodded to the red headed crusader before her. "You must tell me how you get you hair to do that, it is simply fascinating."
Rachel rolled her eyes and looked back at the demons who were all now at her mercy, and just now seemed to realize it. "All a misunderstanding. You are all alive, Newt is alive, I'm alive." they all looked around at the dead demons. "Ok so there were a few causalities." she admitted.
"If and when I release you Newt has promised that she will not cause harm to any of you, as long as you don't do anything to additionally antagonize her. She has given me her vow, I would like each of you to also give me that vow. As you will it, it will be done and you will be released from my circle to go on about your life."
Soon the fountain was mostly empty of demons, Al was by her side talking quietly to Newt and Dali. Rachel saw that there were six demons left in the circle neither looking at her. "Are you unable to promise to keep a truce?"
"You aren't even a real demon we can't and won't be held to your rules." one of them shouted.
Rachel looked at the others. "Do you all feel that way?" they all nodded in their agreement. She looked to Al. "Are they going to be an issue?"
Al looked at Dali who looked at Newt and they all nodded in agreement that the six demons would indeed be an issue, one of them was Ku'Sox. "Right then." She shook her head and turned to the protection circle "Solvas!" Five of the six demons shattered into a million pieces. All the demons who stood around whipped around to look at who had cursed the demons to their instant death. Once they realized that it was Rachel that had, and was now approaching the protection circle they scattered away, some popping home in their fright. "Why you have to be a thorn in my side, I'll never know."
"I knew you couldn't kill me." he taunted with a smirk.
"Oh, I can defiantly kill you." Rachel laughed. "But what I've planned for you is so much more fun, and I'll use you as a reminder." she laughed manically. Before he could say anymore Rachel reached down deep into her chi , pulled heavily on the line and shot her magic at her nemesis. "Patet circuluc ignis vixerunt, doneci dicere mutus."
Rachel watched fascinated as her magic surrounded the day walking demon in what could only de described as a cylinder glass display case, he was floating in the air above the open flames that were under him. He was screaming but she had robbed him of the ability of sound. "Every time you think of doing harm to something, or someone the flames will burn you. No one but I can break this curse. We'll see how long it takes you to learn your lesson."
Rachel turned back to the three demons that she could almost call acquaintances who were all in a different state of shock and awe. "Ok everything is back in order. " she smiled then pulled on her leaking line, pulling from it the debris that she had carried from topside to the EverAfter causing the rift, when she made the damn thing in error. "My line is fixed too." she nodded. "I'm heading back home, if you need me you know how to reach me. Al I'll see you on Monday."
"Do you have to leave so soon?" Dali asked with a charming smile.
"Yes, I have things I have to do." she nodded and stepped away from them. "Actually, Al, I'm looking for Nick, any idea where I can find him?" Rachel asked looking over her shoulder, remembering at the last minute.
Al looked at her blankly, then smirked his eyes coating over in an opaque whiteness. "I do know where he is, student." he blinked and the white was gone back to their usual red color. "It will cost you, though." he said with a chuckle.
Rachel rolled her eyes. "I just swooped in and saved the day, killed the 5 demons that were an issue for you, and locked up your love child indefinitely and you're haggling me?" she demanded. Irritated she left her skin coating over, and her hair began to whip around her. She looked down and realized she was floating.
"Damn it, now look what you did!" she shouted frustrated trying to think of her happy place. "Never mind I'll figure it out myself!" Annoyed she thought of the church and popped back outside of the circle, topside. "Freaking annoying demons. " she muttered lashing out at the lawn chair that she appeared next to, then slumping into it.
"Ok you win itchy witch, he's at his mothers." Al said begrudgingly. Rachel shot off the chair and did a little happy dance.
"Morgan?" Rachel whipped around and smiled at Trent, then frowned.
"What are you doing in my back yard?" she demanded hands on her hip. She looked around. "Where's Quen?"
"I can't get to your front door, there seems to be a protection spell of some sort, and I left Quen at home." he muttered looking over at her. "Where you just dancing?"
"Maybe." Rachel muttered, she glamoured herself, via curse to lose the EverAfter smell and reached for Lucy. "Hello baby girl, out and about with your daddy today?" she snuggled into the little elfin girls neck and sighed. "You smell delicious."
"Said the evil wicked witch." Trent muttered , trying to take the baby back.
"Hands off Elf boy." she growled. She reached out and tapped the circle taking the magic back into her. Causing Lucy to giggle and gurgle as she tangled herself in Rachel's hair. "Come on in. I've had a break in the case."
Rachel led the way into house and then into the kitchen where Ivy, Jenks, and Wade waited for her. Ivy jumped up and headed her way stopping when she realized that Rachel held Lucy, who she instead played peek a boo with as she spoke telepathically to Rachel.
I wasn't able to talk to you when you were in the EverAfter . Is everything ok? Ivy asked worried as she continued to make the baby laugh.
Everything is fine now, Newt was waging war on my behalf thinking they had killed me and she was next, all a misunderstanding. I'll work on the non communication when I'm in the EverAfter there has to be a way around it.
Ok, I was worried when I woke up and you were gone. We need to talk about what happened last night. Ivy looked at Rachel and offered up a slight lift of her lips.
We will, let me deal with Trent and then you and I can relax, ok?
Ivy nodded and headed to the coffee pot. "I'm making a fresh pot, would anyone like some?"
"That would be great Ivy thanks." Rachel smirked and headed to take a seat at the kitchen table.
Trent looked around slightly bewildered. "Have you redecorated?"
Jenks laughed from his perch on the pot rack. "You could say that." he turned to Rachel and whistled to have his kids go out and check the lines.
"I assume everything is handled ?"
"For now." Rachel smiled. "Lucy, I'm so happy that you're here. I've miss you so." she whispered softly to the little girl who blinked at her and slowly smiled.
"Dea." the girl said softly. Rachel's eyes flew to Trent who looked just as shocked.
"Oh she's so cute she is trying to say, Rae." Jenks smirked. "No Lucy it's Rae, come on say Rae." he few a few inches from her face, which clearly annoyed the Elfin princess as she swatted at him and reached for Rachel's face.
"Kalamack has she said her first words yet?" Rachel asked with a bit of steel coming through of her voice as she began to worry.
"Not before today." he bit out looking fiercely at the woman in front of him. He stood and reached for his daughter, only to further annoyed when she started to cry and chant "Dea, Dea!"
"It's ok Lucy, calm down sweetie." Rachel said softly to the girl who turned in her father's arms to find Rachel and she smiled content with being able to see Rachel. "Trent?"
"Do I look like I understand this?" he said annoyance clear in his voice as he tried to resituate himself and Lucy as she became fussy the minute she was turned away from Rachel.
Rachel closed her eyes and tried to center herself trying not to over think what was going on and what it could possibly mean. Her drama dish was full, ok? "So I have a lead as to where Nick is, I'll be picking him up later tonight."
"That was quick." Trent seemed to be happy to hear that. "Very good Morgan."
"Well I got lucky." Rachel smiled, as Ivy set the coffee in front of her, without thinking Rachel pulled ivy down onto her lap, sighing with content when Ivy leaned back into the embrace. She felt her entire body relax. Thanks, love that is exactly what I needed. She turned to Trent with a scowl when she caught the look he was shooting at them. "Lets plan to meet up tomorrow after I deal with Nick tonight."
Trent seemed to see the visit was over and stood. "How about 2 in the afternoon. I know you sleep in."
"That's perfect." she said not rising to the bait that he was shooting her way. "Lucy ?" Rachel smiled when the girl shifted in her dad's arms to look over at her. "Esse Tranquillitas mea puella, tibi servabit te." she whispered and blew the baby a kiss.
There was a loud pop, and a huge dip in the line. She looked at Trent who shot her a dirty look, Rachel just knew she would pay for the curse one way or another, hopefully that baby wasn't marked, at least not where Trent would find it.
"Do I want to know?" he demanded.
"A blessing is all, to watch over her and tell her I love her." Rachel smiled and winked at the baby who was now content to lay in her fathers arms. "I'll see you tomorrow Trent, bring everyone Ceri, Ray,Lucy, and Quen. I'll make a late lunch."
Trent left with a look of confusion on his face. Rachel just smiled when Jenks offered to walk them out, and Rachel just nestled into Ivy's neck.
"You're fangs are gone." Ivy said softly, and Rachel was shocked to realize they were.
"I hadn't even noticed." she muttered with laugh.
