Chapter 25: The End Of The Tale

10th May, 1994

Portland, Oregon.

Jo and Kai were standing in the center of a large circle of the Gemini coven members. Jo looked up at the sun.

"The power of the eclipse will merge us as one. You know what to say?"

"Been practicing my whole life." Kai said with a smile. No one could tell he just murdered four of his siblings. They took each others hands, closed their eyes and began to chant the needed spells together.

"Sanguinem desimilus... Sanguinem generis fiantus."

Nothing happened. Kai looked at Jo, feeling puzzled.

"I don't feel anything." said Kai. Jo feigned ignorance, and closed her eyes, as though they should try again. This time Kai chanted the spell alone.

"Sanguinem desimilus... Sanguinem generis fiantus."

Kai opened his eyes to find Jo looking at him. She didn't look surprised that nothing was happening, but rather as though she knew exactly why it wasn't working. It didn't take long for Kai to figure out something fishy was going on here. If Evelyn could betray him, the one who loved him the most then Josette could surely trick him without thinking about it for a second.

"Josette, what did you do?" Kai asked with anger in his voice. "Why can't I feel your magic? And why aren't they saying anything? They should be saying something. They should be saying something, right? We're merging. This should all be a bigger deal."

Before Kai could realize anything, suddenly Joshua appeared there, holding the Ascendant. Even though Evelyn was dead that didn't mean Joshua couldn't still execute the plan of imprisoning Kai. After all Josette had agreed to betray Kai in exchange of her freedom. That was all Joshua needed to proceed with the plan. He stepped forward from the circle of the coven around the twins. Suddenly Kai started shouting out in pain and dropped to his knees as Joshua began chanting a different spell.

"Sanguinem filio, sanguinem effurgarex perpetuum. Sanguinem filio, sanguinem effurgarex perpetuum."

"Aah! Aah!" Kai screamed in pain at the top of his lungs. Jo didn't feel any pity for him. He deserved worse for what he did to them.

"Phesmatos filio, phesmatos effurgarex perpetuum."

Kai started writhing in pain on the ground, as though pinned down, and whimpered in agony. Suddenly a white light hit Kai and he disappeared from the real world. Joshua stopped chanting. Jo walked over to him.

"It's done." Joshua said to Josette confidently.

"Kai's in the prison world now and he's never getting out." The coven members started to leave. Joshua turned around as well. But he stopped and looked at Jo.

"Go to Whitmore College. Sheila Bennett is willing to take you under her wings."

Joshua left saying that. Once everyone was gone, Josette dropped on her knees and started crying out loud. She let out the pain that was suffocating her inwardly for hours. She may move on with her life but she will never forget this day. She will never forget the day everything good in her life got destroyed.
