Hinami cried softly as she sat in her dimly lit room on the floor, her hands gripping her silver hair tightly as she spoke to herself in a hushed tone. "Please… stop this… I don't want to transform again!" The pale girl could feel one of her arms starting the transformation of her cursed magic. Her eyes widened as she moved a hand to the front of her face, watching the pale color quickly turn to black. Sharp nails formed at her fingertips as the dark shade made its way up her forearm to her elbow. Her other hand came down and gripped her skin tightly but it would not stop the black color from crawling up halfway on the rest of her arm. "No! No! Please! Don't go any further!" Hinami could feel the growing power of the curse pulsing through her veins. "I don't want to transform!"
Watery lavender eyes turned to the wall nearby as a dark shadow formed over it, starting from the sitting girls' body. Hinami shook her head as she watched the shadow climb the wall, forming into a tall and slender figure. It was a menacing looking figure, yet it was nothing more than a shadow, revealing her true form of her cursed magic. It was tall and had long limbs as it appeared over her bedroom wall. Nothing really could be made out definitely besides the long pointy ears on top of the shadows head, a white toothy grin, and two ruby eyes glaring back at the scared girl sitting on the floor.
The silver haired girl turned her head away quickly. "Please just go away! Leave me alone!"
The shadow grinned, showing off its ivory teeth, its voice low as it spoke back to Hinami. "You know as well as I do, that I cannot just go away." The shadow turned its head away from the girl as it brought up a clawed hand close to its jackal like face, its grin still across its lips. "You always seem to forget that I am part of you."
Hinami quickly brought both of her hands over her ears as her lavender eyes shut tight. "How can I forget when you make me go through this every time I'm upset?!"
The shadow's ruby eye shifted back to the girl on the ground. "Why don't you just give in? Let me take over completely…" A chill ran up the girls' spine as she felt the shadow place its clawed hands over her shoulders, its muzzle moving in close to her ear as it whispered. "Then you won't have to worry about begin afraid, or alone. You would have so much more power at your fingertips…."
Hinami shook her head quickly. "I don't want this power! You're the reason why I can't make any friends!"
The grip on the silver haired girls shoulders eased as the dark figure stepped back and away from the girl. "Is it really my fault that you cannot control your emotions? You should have learned how to control them better so that your true form will not show and scare off everyone you meet." Lavender eyes opened wide as she felt a rush of air. She was now staring at the beast in front of her. Its red eyes were on fire as its lips curled up into a wide smile. "If you want… I can always go visit that boy… it would be easy for me to—"
"Leave Gaje alone! I knew what I was getting into when I told him that I liked him…" Hinami said quickly.
The dark shadow turned its canine head and peered into the girl with one ruby eye. "But he hurt you… and you know that deep down, you want to get revenge." The shadow waited a long minute before it began to laugh as it moved away from the girl. "Don't tell me you still have feelings for that sorry soul?"
Hinami looked away as she dropped her arms down at her sides. She couldn't hide anything from this creature. It was part of her and it knew everything she was feeling, everything she was thinking. "He doesn't deserve what you could do to him…"
The shadow moved quickly back into the girl, its claws digging into her shoulders as it pushed Hinami onto her back. Its muzzle moved in close to the girls face as it spoke in anger. "He deserves every ounce of suffering I could bring to him! You foolish girl! I can hear every thought you have, feel every heartbeat, and every hurtful thing that you have endured over the years." The shadow chuckled as it moved back some from the girl. "Don't you remember what happened to the last set of friends who found out what you really are? It's a wonder that Yuriko has stayed by your side for so long after finding out your little… secret…"
Hinami shook her head as she stared up at the dark figure. "I remember… every single day… that's why… I don't want you anymore! I don't want this magic! It's not even magic, it's a damned curse!"
A knock on the door caused Hinami to whip her head towards her bedroom door quickly. Her mother's warm voice could be heard behind it. "Hinami? Dinner is ready, dear."
Lavender eyes looked back to where the shadow once was, but saw nothing now. Hinami sat up slowly and brought a hand to her chest as she breathed in and out. She gasped and held her breath as she looked down at the arm that was starting to turn completely black a few minutes ago. It was pale once more. The silver haired girl let out the breath she held in. 'It's gone… for now…' She thought to herself. Another knock on the door made Hinami turn her attention back to her mother on the other end.
"Hinami? Sweetie are you alright in there?" Her mother asked with concern.
"I'm… I'm fine, mom. And I'm not really hungry tonight. Sorry." Hinami said softly as she brought her knees up to her chest.
"Are you sure you're alright? Did something happen at school again?" Her mother asked.
"I'm just… going to go to bed early tonight, ok? I said that I am fine." Hinami said as she looked back to the wall where the shadow once was. Her eyes began to water as she saw it there, glaring back at her with ruby red eyes and that toothy white grin. Hinami could feel her warm tears roll down her cheeks as she toned out her mother's concerned words that followed her own response. 'I know I won't ever be able to get rid of you….' The silver haired girl turned her head to hide her face in her knees. She didn't want to see it anymore. She hated those ruby eyes and that scary grin that was always on that jackals face. 'I just wish… I knew how to control you….'
Gaje sat down on the couch and quickly got into a comfortable position so he could read his book. The house had for once, calmed down enough he could venture out of his room to read in his favorite spot. His older sister and father constantly bickering and yelling at each other, made the dark haired mage stay to his room most of the time that he was home. He honestly had thought about going out to the book store his mother owned thousands of times, just so he could escape the chaos around his household. He just wanted to be alone and unbothered. But with his older sister in a constant state of hate and anger towards their father, and of course, Leviana constantly bugging him to spend time together, it was a wonder why he still managed to get anything done.
Crimson red eyes glided over the inked pages of his book, quickly getting lost in its words. Gaje often imagined himself elsewhere when he was reading his books. On the outside, he seemed quiet and reserved, but what few knew of the script mage, he longed for something new. Everything and everyone around him bored him. It was all the same. He wanted something in his life to give him some excitement, just as his books did. He yearned for something to come along and make him feel anything but boredom. Unfortunately, all he had were his books and his studies. Gaje enjoyed learning about lost magic's and hoped to one day learn some for himself and perhaps even enhance his solid script magic further.
Leviana scrambled down the stairs and was heading to the kitchen when her brothers scent caught her attention. The younger girl smiled and turned around on her heels in search of Gaje. Her hazel eyes found him quickly, sitting in his favorite spot on the couch. She giggled as she made her way over to him. Her hands clenched the back of the couch as she leaned forward slightly, kicking up one of her legs as she did. "Whatcha doin'?" Gaje ignored his sister as his eyes stayed on the pages. He knew eventually she would give up and leave him alone. Leviana stuck out her bottom lip in a pout as silence was his response. "Gaaaaajjeeeee!" She started in a whinny tone. "Why are you ignoring me?!"
"I'm trying to read." Gaje said quickly.
Leviana sighed as she folded her arms at her elbows, dipping her whole body down behind the couch. The girl quickly stood back up straight and jumped over the furniture. "But you're always reading. Why can't we go out and do something fun?"
"Reading is fun. You should give it a try." He said calmly as he turned his page.
The blue haired mage blew one of her long bangs out of her face and crossed her arms over her chest. "Not everyone can get lost in a book like you can…" Leviana tapped her finger on her arm impatiently as she looked towards her older brother. "Can't you just do something else that's fun for one night? Oh! I know!" She said with a smile as she quickly put one of her arms down at her side while the other came up and pointed a finger into the air. "Why don't we call up that one girl and go out to the movies? What was her name?" Leviana asked herself as she brought her finger to her chin. "I haven't seen her all week… or smelled her for that matter… wonder what happened to her?"
"What girl are you talking about?" Gaje asked as he slightly shifted his head to read the next page of his book.
Hazel eyes closed happily as Leviana tilted her head to the side and brought her hands together as she spoke. "You know! The one that likes you! I think you two make a cute couple and if I were you, I'd give that girl a chance! She's super cute Gaje!"
Gaje sighed as he read. "Being cute isn't everything Leviana."
The blue haired girl put her hands on her hips quickly, her expression changing to anger towards her brother. "Yes it is, Gaje! You are just weird and can't think like a normal guy!"
The dark haired mage closed his book and set it down on the small table nearby. He stood a second later and began to head for the door. Leviana gasped in excitement and quickly jumped up from her seat, following her brother to the door. "So does this mean you are coming with me and that girl to the movies?!"
Gaje put his hand on the doorknob and opened the door. "No, I'm just going out for a walk. I thought I could get some reading done while Lily was at that music convention, but somehow I forgot about my other bothersome sister."
Leviana gasped and crossed her eyebrows as she watched her brother smirk and walk out of the house after his words. She was in disbelief that her own brother would call her bothersome! All she wanted was to go out and have some fun… and maybe try to play matchmaker! The blue haired girl crossed her arms over her chest once more. "Great… now what am I gonna do that Gaje isn't home?" Leviana snapped her finger and smiled. "I can always just go follow him around… he's bound to give in to me bugging him!" The dragon slayer quickly ran to the door and grabbed her coat from the hangers on the wall, her footsteps following her older brothers out of the house.
Gaje breathed out slowly, watching his breath fade away quickly into the night air. The mage had some regrets for not bringing his own jacket out while he walked. His hands were shoved into his pockets as his crimson eyes glanced up to the darkened sky. The stars were shinning tonight, as well was the full moon. It was so quiet. Unlike his household. Gaje moved his eyes back down in front of him, eyeing the familiar park he had often escaped to as a child. He would bring a full backpack of books and just pick a spot and read until light was no longer available. He was never one to stay at home when it got too noisy.
Gaje eventually found himself walking towards the swing sets, his usual go to spot to be alone and think. He paused for a minute when he noticed another figure already on one of the swings… his swing. He raised a brow as he continued on his path, his interest in his person barely peaking. The dark haired mage noticed the person was hooded and seemed to be hiding every inch of their body. The swing he always sat at was dimly lit, so along with the figure being covered head to toe, it was hard to make out who was out at this hour.
The script mage sat down next to the swing he usually sat at, his gaze looking straight ahead as he let out a soft sigh. Gaje noticed the figure had flinched and shifted its body away from him as he sat down, as if they didn't want to be seen. The dark haired mage breathed out and glanced up at the sky once more. "So why are you out here tonight?" The figure was silent, and moved an inch away, its presence staying quiet. Gaje smiled as he looked at all of the constellations in the sky. "A quiet one. I'm cool with that. Honestly I think I prefer it. My house is always so noisy… I'm usually good at shutting it all out and just keep my nose in a book… but sometimes it's not enough… so I come out here to be alone and get away from it all." Gaje looked down at his feet, a smile still over his face. "And the one night I decide to come out here because of my little sister… I find that someone else has the same idea as me… and chooses the swing I always go and sit in." Gaje saw the figure start to get up from the swing, but he stopped them quickly. "You don't have to leave, I'm just saying… it's nice to know that someone thinks like me. You don't mind if I just sit here for a bit with you… do you?"
The figure shook its head slowly. The dark haired mage smiled as he looked back up to the sky as his feet kicked off of the hard ground, pushing his body back with the swing. He swung slowly as he let his mind go blank. He usually never opened up to people like this… perhaps it was because he saw that the figure was clearly trying to hide. It wanted to be alone, just like him. Gaje sat there for a long while, swinging himself softly as he just let his mind clear in silence.
Hinami's mind raced as she shifted her weight away from Gaje who had sat next to her. 'Oh no! Why is here now?! I can't let him see me! God, why did he have to come here tonight? I just wanted to get some fresh air and I didn't think anyone else was going to come here… but… now what? Should I leave? Or just stay here until he goes? What if he doesn't?! What if he sees me like this? Please… just stay over there Gaje….' Hinami gripped her coat tightly with her hand. She was trying desperately to hide her body that had started to transform just like the nights before. The curse of her magic was trying to take over so the silver haired girl thought some fresh air would do her some good. But now that Gaje was here, of all people, her nerves were going wild and causing her magic to take over faster.
Her mind slowly changed subjects as she listened to Gaje speak. It was odd for him to be this… talkative and open to anyone. It was like a completely different Gaje that she had known and watched for so long. Although… a person can be totally different at home versus in school. The silver haired girl secretly smiled to herself after Gaje spoke. It was nice to hear his calm voice. She wanted so badly to talk back with him, even if it was just a short conversation… he wasn't being cold towards her. She decided not to ruin the chance for him to speak to her more so she remained silent. If this was as close as she was able to get to this side of Gaje… she wasn't about to ruin it. Hinami's head turned ever so slightly towards Gaje, her lavender eyes looking over the dark haired mage swinging.
Why did she have to deal with this curse? All she ever wanted was to have friends and be able to socialize like a normal human being. She wanted to become emotional without having to fear of turning into a monster and scaring off anyone she meets. But that dream was never going to happen. She was never going to be able to control her magic.
Even though an hour had passed, time seemed to stop for the girl as Gaje still sat beside her. She fought with herself internally the whole time. Should she stay and say something? Should she leave? Hinami bit her bottom lip as she gripped her coat tighter. 'I can't just stay here and not say anything… maybe I should just tell him who I am… maybe he won't be scared by… me…' Lavender eyes shifted off to the side, the dim light nearby was still enough for the shadow to appear, its ruby eyes piercing into the girl. 'No… I can't… I just have to wait for him to leave… I'm going to just stay quiet… I don't want him to know what I really am.'
Gaje breathed out and stood finally. He put his hands back into his pockets and spoke. "Well… I'm sure my sister has found something else to entertain herself by now… guess I'll be heading home now." The dark haired mage turned his head to the cloaked figure on the swing. "Thanks for letting me sit here with you. It was a nice change from what I'm normally used to."
Hinami watched as Gaje smiled and turned, his feet starting to walk away from her. She could feel her heart skip a beat as she saw his smile. It was sincere and the first time she had ever seen it. It was then she realized that she could not give up on him so easily. If he was this different outside of school, all by himself… there had to be a chance still for her! She couldn't give up, or let go of her feelings for the script mage. The only problem… was her magic. Lavender eyes opened wide as she saw Gaje getting father away. Her body moved quickly as she stood and reached a hand out in front of her. "Gaje! Wait!"
Gaje stopped and turned slightly, surprised to hear a somewhat familiar voice come from the hooded figure. Before either one could say another word, the three boys that had bothered Gaje earlier that week had appeared. All of them had crooked smiles across their faces as they approached Gaje. The ringleader of the small group held out his hand to stop the other two from walking farther. Gaje looked at them with a bored expression, his crimson eyes rolling. "And here I thought you three learned your lesson the last time you bothered me… guess you just can't help the idiotic."
The boy in the front clenched his fists as he stepped closer to the script mage. "You know what Redfox? We were gonna come out here and have a nice little chat with ya, but now I think we'll go with plan B."
Gaje shifted his weight slightly as he tilted his head some. "How did you guys even know I was out here? Have you been watching me because you have nothing better to do and want to get revenge for what I did to you earlier this week?"
"You're damn right I want revenge! Your stupid magic made me itch like a mother all week! I only recently just got my voice back you know!" The leader snapped.
Gaje smirked as he chuckled slightly. "You know those were very basic spells that could have been fixed in an hour? Guess you haven't learned a damn thing in school." Crimson eyes closed for a moment before shifting back to the three classmates a few feet away from him. "And now you want to try to get back at me? Good luck."
The ringleader smirked as he raised a brow. "I wouldn't be too cocky there, Redfox. Unlike last time… we have a little trick up our sleeve."
"What? Did you actually bring your brains this time?" Gaje responded.
The boy in the front was fuming now. He had never been so angry in his entire life. "God damn it Redfox! I swear this night, I'm going to get my revenge! You'll regret ever messing with me!"
"I think it was you and your little gang who started all of this. Not me." The script mage said calmly.
The boy gritted his teeth and growled. He looked back to the boy on his left and nodded. The shorter classmate pulled something out from his jacket pocket. Crimson eyes watched as the boy pulled out a weird looking stick, one that looked like it had a hand with a single finger pointed outward. It was decorated with a few rings but other than that, it looked like a simple piece of wood with a creepy hand at the end. Gaje sighed as he lifted up his own hand, his index and middle finger came together, ready to write out any spell he wished.
The leader of the group smirked once more as he started to laugh. "Go ahead and try to use your magic on us…"
Gaje said nothing in return. He moved his arm to start spelling out a word when it suddenly stopped. Crimson eyes went right to the unwavering arm, confusion coming over him. "What the… why can't I move my arm?" The script mage looked back up past the smug boy in the front to the shorter classmate holding up the wand. It was glowing as its magic power was being used on the script mage. Crimson eyes looked to the boy in front, his expression still calm. "I see. Using cheap magic to make this an unfair fight? Seems fitting for you."
"Man I can't stand your attitude… or your face!" The leader said as he walked closer to Gaje, his deranged look over his face became clearer to the script mage as he walked closer to the light. "I kinda feel like messing it up a bit!" The boy brought up his arm in front of his face and formed spikes from his own skin. He chuckled as he moved one of the spikes onto Gaje's cheek. "Whatcha say Redfox? Wanna have some fun with these bad boys? Now that you can't use your stupid magic on me… I'd say it's time for some payback."
Hinami watched as Gaje could do nothing but stand there, frozen from the spell being cast from the shorter boy with the magic wand. She too was frozen in place. Fear was keeping her still. Fear for Gaje, and fear for herself. She wanted to help him… but she didn't want to risk everyone seeing her. The longer she watched the boys speak, the more fear took over her entire body. Her body began to shake as she felt the dark curse of her magic forming over most of her cloaked body. She could feel its power rising up her neck in her veins, coming up to her cheeks slowly. Hinami knew this wasn't good. She was completely frightened by what was about to happen. The classmates didn't seem to even notice her presence by the swings.
'What are they planning on doing?! And what can I do?! If I just continue to stand here, my magic is just going to take over me! And I won't be able to do anything after that! I'm so scared right now I can't even move…' Lavender eyes looked to Gaje quickly. They widened when they saw the script mages' face remained calm and collected still, even with a sharp spike pointed right onto his cheek. 'How… how is he so calm when all of this is happening?!' The silver haired girl couldn't help but just stand there and stare at the dark haired boy for a long minute as the classmate in front of Gaje continued to ramble on. The girl clenched her blackened fist tightly as she finally made up her mind. 'If he can stand up to those bullies… then… to help save Gaje… I'm just going to do this… I don't care if this will push him away… I just want him to be safe.'
The ringleader drew back his arm, his grin widening as he spoke. "Any last words, Redfox?! Caz after I get done with you, you're not going to be talking much… you'll be too busy screaming in pain!"
"S-stop!" Hinami called out before the classmate could move his spiked arm back down towards Gaje. All four boys turned their attention to the cloaked girl. The silver haired girl swallowed the large lump in her throat as she held up a finger to the leader. "L-leave Gaje alone… or else—"
The boy tilted his head slightly, clearly becoming annoyed by the extra nuisance nearby. "Or else what? And who the hell are you to tell me what to do?!"
Hinami took back her extended hand and held it close to her chest, clenching her fist tightly. "I'm… I'm… his friend…"
The boy raised a brow as he spoke. "Huuuh?" He turned his head to look at Gaje for a moment. "Do you know who that is?"
Crimson eyes looked at the cloaked figure. The voice was so familiar, yet he couldn't put his finger on where he had heard it before. Whoever this person was… they were willing to get involved in his problem. "Just get out of here. I can handle this myself."
"No… you can't do this alone… not when it's this unfair…" Lavender eyes closed as the girl breathed out. "I'm sorry… I didn't want you to ever see me like this… but… I cannot leave you to deal with these bullies by yourself." Gaje's eyes went wide as the girl removed her hood finally, revealing who she really was. He saw her pale skin being taking over by a black color. And as Hinami's eyes began to open again, he no longer saw her soft lavender eyes. Those once soft and caring lavender eyes had turned ruby red. Gaje watched as Hinami removed the cloak and tossed it aside. He watched as a dark magical mist began to swirl around her body as she held out her arms at her sides.
'Isn't that… the girl from my class? What is she doing out here? And what is she doing right now?' Gaje thought to himself as he watched her begin her transformation. Hinami's body was changing in front of them all. Her legs grew black fur from her skin as they extended upwards, changing into canine hind legs. The fur crawled up the rest of her body quickly, taking over every inch of her pale skin. Her arms too had extended and her hands turned into paws with sharp claws at the end of her fingertips. Gaje watched as her magic made its way up to her face, transforming her quiet, and scared face into that of a jackal. Her muzzle grew out and her lips curled up into a toothy grin. As her mouth opened, dark purple smoke came rising out as she released the air in her lungs. Her silver hair turned black as well, forming upwards, and turning into giant dark ears on top of her head.
Her clothing had disappeared as the dark fur encased the girl's body, leaving only golden bracelets just above her ankles and wrists. A golden collar necklace shined against her dark fur, even in the dim light around them. The air smelled of death and decay as Hinami's magic power increased with every second. The two shorter classmates shook in their places as her appearance alone made them shake in fear. They had never seen anything like her transformation in their lives, and something about it was making them want to turn around and run away in terror.
The ringleader's eyes went wide as he watched the giant jackal looks his way, those ruby red eyes burning holes into him as it grinned. He watched as the dark purple smoke escaped her mouth once more. "What… what the hell are you?!" He said with a shaky voice.
The creature started to step his way as she spoke. "Release him… if you wish to not be judged and sent to the afterlife." The toothy grin formed back over the canines face. "I am the spirit of Anubis… and I am using this girl's body to do my own bidding in this world…. And let me tell you… I am very hungry for unworthy souls…"
The boy's mouth opened in terror as he watched the jackal open its jaws, watching its long tongue slide over its sharp teeth teasingly. His hands let go of Gaje as he stepped back. He pointed a finger out at the dark creature making its way over to them. "You're a monster! You're not human at all!"
The creature laughed and stretched out its arms at its side. Dark flames formed just above its hands as its red eyes glared at the classmate. "If I'm such a monster… then why am I giving you three seconds to get the hell out of here?"
The leader of the small group stepped back and almost into the shorter boy with the wand still pointed at Gaje. "You're bluffin'! We can just use this wand on you and take you down easily! Besides, you're just a girl! And I ain't lettin' some stupid girl take me—"
In a blink of an eye, the spirit had moved in front of the leader, towering over him menacingly. Its muzzle lowered in front of his face so its ruby eyes were staring right into his. "Choose your next words carefully. Because this "girl" in front of you… is no longer here. I am the spirit of Anubis and I will not hesitate to do my own bidding."
The spirit watched as the taller boy of the three shook uncontrollably. Fear had completely taken him over and he could not say another word. The boys' head shook as he was making up his mind on what to do next. Like a scared rabbit, he turned and pushed off the ground to run. He yelled when he ran right into his minion with the wand, both boys falling to the ground. The leader didn't waste any time getting back to his feet and cursing the boy who was directly behind him. "You idiot! Get out of my way! I'm getting the hell out of here!"
"Wait for us boss!" The boy said as he scrambled to his feet, following his leaders footsteps as he dropped the wand on the ground. The third boy quickly followed the other two as well, not wanting to be any closer to the dark spirit any longer than he had to.
Once he was released, Gaje took back his arm and rolled his shoulder, his crimson eyes staying on the spirit. He watched as it stepped down on the wand hard with its giant foot, smashing the wooden wand to bits. He could hear it mumbling something under its breath as he walked towards the spirit. He stopped a few feet away, and with a calm voice, he spoke. "So you were the girl from my class, huh?"
The spirit slowly stood up straight and turned to face Gaje. Its red eyes glaring daggers into him. "You have some nerve, mage…. Do you not fear the sight that is in front of you?"
Gaje shoved his hands into his pockets and looked away, his expression unwavering. "No, not really. It takes a lot to scare me. Guess I get that from my dad." Crimson orbs looked back to the annoyed spirit. "So… what happened to that girl?"
The dark creature smirked. "You mean that frail and frightened girl, Hinami? As I said before… she let me take over… so it's just me standing before you now."
"I see. So it's take over magic, huh? Interesting." Gaje said as he brought his index finger and thumb to his chin. "And because you are the Egyptian god Anubis, well, the spirit of Anubis… that must mean its lost magic."
The spirit laughed lightly as it crossed its arms over its chest. "You seem to know a little bit about me and what I am…" Its smirk changed into a snarl as its eyes narrowed. "Unfortunately, I did not like how you treated this girl… I personally would like to take your soul and send you to the afterlife… but this girl told me not to harm you."
Gaje's eyes looked straight back into the jackals as he spoke clearly. "But wasn't it you who said that Hinami was no longer here and that you would not hesitate to do your own bidding?"
The spirit let out a loud and long laugh. It found humor in Gaje's words as he repeated what it had said just moments ago to the other boys. "You are very smart… or extremely stupid, boy." The spirit uncrossed its arms and held its hands out to the sides, forming the dark flames once more. "And unfortunately for you… that girl is gone… and I am going to get revenge on you for making her feel so much pain. I hope you are ready… because I will not hold myself back."
AN: No, I didn't forget about Leviana, I just want to make this into a 3 part bonus and we will find out what happened to her in the next part. :)
