Hello there! Next update is here! Oh, and review please!

Chapter 11

Salvation

While Selin was hunting, Angelica came to right place. She didn't know why Irvin fixed meeting in the region of abandoned storehouses. It was cold, dark and foul-smelling place, and Irvin was nowhere in sight to explain his wild choice. It was too quiet here. The moon was covered with clouds. Witch wasn't afraid, she has fought with demons and humans using her magic, but now she wasn't sure it will work. Angelic crossed fingers on resemblance of the prayer and whispered: 'Oh, mother of Sole kin, save your daughter from all miseries!' – Then she touched the amulet on her neck looked like first seal (A/n: I'll explain what means first, third and second seal later, keep reading!).

Suddenly a monster flew out of the darkness and closed her mouth with its paw:

"I got you, witch! Don't even try to resist! Your focuses are useless against me!" – It growled. Angelica tried to kick him with legs but in vain, and then she tensed her telepathic abilities and screamed for help.

"I warned you!" – Roared mongrel (it was one of the VWW 13) and slapped her so hard that she became unconscious. Blood streamed from cuts from claws on her cheek. Monster licked the blood of, put her body on his shoulder and disappeared in darkness.

Selin was flying faster than ever, searching screen below her. Kiara followed in her werewolf form. But to find one woman in San-Francisco is the same as to search for needle in haystack. They hadn't time to tell anyone else, but Angelica's cousin Vina to try to sense Angelic using blood ties. Dracula wanted to help but Sel asked him not to give head. He agreed, but took a promise to call him if it would be too dangerous. Selina hoped to find her before sunrise and before it is too late.
Where is this pain from? She tried to move but whole body was bounded by rope. Pain constrained her. Witch opened eyes with force and moaned through the gag in agony. She was lying on the wet and cold floor, rats were here too and their cheep droved mad. But rats not in vain called 'devil's creatures'. Angelica made another effort and sat, and then looked at rats and sent them a signal 'help'. Small nasty animals started champing the rope, working fast with their sharp teeth. 'Faster, please!' – thought Angelic trembling in worry. She didn't know where she was and how to back home, her first wish was to set free from ropes. Rats worked hard but her plain failed as her jailer came in. Angelica was surprised. It was strong, tall man with awful black eyes and brown hair, he wore black pants and as sick from pain witch could understand it was human. 'Monsters use humans to do their dirty work? They're smarter than I supposed,' – thought Angelic. Jailer dispersed rats and uncorded ropes.

"Clever witch! Hm, trace of my claws," – he touched scratches on her cheek.

"That can't be the truth!" – Angelica shook head. Jailer took her by shoulder and led her out of the room. She still couldn't believe her ears. "Why not? We're not worse than you and we understood that witches' blood, I mean mortal blood, can change us to human form. You're our new donor."

'Donor' became unconscious again and became soft in his arms.

"What news? Have you found her?" – asked Vina calmly, but it seemed that she's ready to cry. Kiara embraced her and whispered quietly in her ear:

"No, but I know you found her. Tell us and we'll save her."

Selina was standing on the ceiling in deep thinking.

"Alright! I'll tell you. I sensed her, but I'm not sure if it's the right place."

Vampire gracefully landed on the floor and looked at Vina attentively:

"Where?"

"I've told you, I'm not sure!" – Witch couldn't fight with tears and cried on Kiara's shoulder.

"Sel! Be kinder! She is longing for Angelic!"

Selina was irritated:

"I know! The sunrise is near and I can't help if I'll turn into dust!"

"Stop shouting! You make her afraid!" – yelled Kiara back.

"Stop you both! Angelica is in the storehouse number four! Get out of my house and bring her back, or I'll turn you two into toads!"

Sel and Ki laughed hysterically and left Vina's house, hearing witch's damning.

Angelic awaked on the table and found herself in place looked like operating room in hospital. Opposite her on the same table lied another witch. It seemed that she was under tranquillizer's control as she looked into the ceiling with glassy eyes. Angelica climbed down from the table and corrected her simple black dress a little bit torn by ropes. Her wavy black hair disarranged and hands were in scratches. She came closer to her 'comrade in misery' and whispered sadly:

"If you could help me, we could be far from here but we're doomed to be their 'donors'. Of course we were donors, but we made it in our own accord. But I'm still believe that my friends will save me or Irvin …" – thoughts about her love made her sick. Where is he now?

She left the witch, who was looking into the ceiling in the same way, insensible to Angelica's sobs. Then Angelic explored the area around and found (to her horror) a heap of dry dead witches' bodies with no drop of blood inside. She screamed and felt on the floor trembling in fear and despair. Dead were looking at her with empty eyes and she understood that the same destiny waits for her too. The door of the room opened and two men came in.

"Oh, new donor!" – They both laughed, looking at pale and miserable woman crying on the floor.

Meanwhile Selina and Kiara were walking at the area of storehouses. Sel looked tired and was looking at the sky from time to time, but luckily it was still dark. Werewolf was sniffing the ground and discovering traces on it.

"Any luck?" – asked Selin searching the storehouses with her excellent vision.

"It smells humans. Maybe Angelic was here. There are traces from her heels and someone's blood." – Ki showed vampire few drops of blood mixed with dust. Selina breathed in the smell of the blood and said:

"That's her blood. She fed me some times and I remember its taste special scent!"

"Hey, look!" – Kiara raised tiny gold chamber with amulet.

"That's it! Can you find her by smell?"

"I'm not a dog! But I can try."

Werewolf sniffed the amulet and turned to one of the storehouses, and then ran there. Vampire followed, holding her sword tightly. Metallic door was locked from the inside. Selin threw her body on the door with force but in vain. A huge dent appeared but nothing more. Kiara made a dash and smashed the door out.

"Good, now let's find Angelic!" – said Selina and they both came into the storehouse.

Angelica was tied to the firm chair. She couldn't move and even shout for help because of the gag. Tears were streaming down her cheeks as she knew – this is the end. Monster in its usual form came closer to her and showed her long and looked like dagger claw:

"I'll drink your blood to the last drop!"

Angelic was moving on her seat, pleading someone for help in her mind. 'Somebody, somehow!' – she begged. Meanwhile VWW 13 made a cut on her neck, and witch moaned in pain. When she was sure everything is lost, her friends appeared. They had already killed ten monsters one by one, and Angelica thought that she is glad to see them more than ever. Kiara made a seizure and hold monster tightly. Selina released Angelic, who squeezed friend in embrace:

"Oh, Sel! Darling! Than you, thank you, thank you!"

"Later. We should go now. I'm so tired …"

Selin could hardly stand, and the sunrise was coming. Kiara cut of mongrel's head as it was the best way for now, and the trio left awful place. Vampire flew home as other two did. It was long night, but every nightmare comes to an end.

Selina lied into her coffin and closed the lid, and immediately fell a sleep. And in the evening when the sun was sitting over the horizon, Angelica knocked the coffin's lid. After the sound of blow, lid fell on the floor and angry vampire raised, rubbing her head:

"What the hell are you waked me!"

Witch smiled innocently and said:

"Calm down, dear. I have the most wonderful news in the whole world!"

"What happened this time?" – asked Selina, still angry on her friend.

"I'm going to be married!"
