The creature was drooling so ready, but not yet his master told him, wait. The one he was waiting for would come, he knew she would come.
Kate held onto M.J. tightly, still keeping the magic circle around her. She had a very small amount of salt in her pocket. She knew it was weak, it was all she could manage. She knew too that the possessed Fairy could take her and M.J. anytime...what was it waiting for?
The Fairy, who looked nothing like a Fairy at this point, spoke to Kate.."Oh, my master still wants your child, his blood is sweet and powerful, but in due time.." he said using his now deformed, claw-like hand to wipe the drool from his mouth, then licking an appendage with his long tongue.
Kate was disgusted but would not show any emotion. Her skills as a witch had served her well and one of those skills was sheilding her emotions. Inside, she was screaming, screaming for Mike to save them, pleading for him to save their child even if he couldn't save her...
Vicki was pale and sweaty. She clenched and unclenched her fists.
"NO!! I don't believe you. My marks," she said holding her arms out, forearms up, "they didn't react at Mike's house. It can't be true."
Oh, God, please don't let it be true..
"I wish it weren't Vicki, but it is. Being pregnant with the twins has changed your body chemistry. One of the ways it has changed is that you are somewhat protected, but not fully. Asteroth could still get to you..but you just won't sense him until you are in closer proximity. You have skills, Vicki, you may need to use them. And, if he discovers your babies.."
Vicki stopped dead in her tracks..Oh hell no...Don't worry, mommy will kill anyone who hurts you..she said again, this time to herself. She meant it all the more now.
"If he tries, even once..so help me, " Vicki hissed the words out. Henry took her in his arms and unbelievably, she pulled away.
"NO, I've got to get a grip on this Henry. We MUST banish him, no more chances. I will not take any more chances. Mike," she said turning to him, "no matter what happens, you must make sure that Henry survives this, do you promise?"
"Whoa, Vic, let's not start.." he began, backing up and putting his hands in the air.
"HEY!! I have two children to protect and I can't very well protect them alone. But in the event something happens, Henry's judgement might be clouded." She was staring him down daring him to defy her request.
"Vicki, please, "Henry was pleading, "Please let us do this..don't..." she cut him off.
"Look this bastard has ruined our lives long enough. No more. I'm done," she said with finality. Vicki had spoken. There was such dead silence in the room, you could've heard everyone's heartbeat. Vicki would give her life defeating this demon if it came down to it in order to protect Abbie and Ward.
"Clark, how do you know so much about vampire chemistry, how do you know for sure that's why my marks aren't reacting?" Vicki had slipped back into PI mode, she wanted to make sure she had everything right before proceeding.
"Well, that's my job actually." he replied. All three stared at him waiting for him to finish.
"Okay, I know I work at the college but my work is as "Historian", a cover for our group. The put us in jobs where we can monitor the supernatural community in order to help where we can."
"There's a group for that? Do they have therapy because I may need it.." Mike stated flatly.
"Well, actually, there is..we have a couples group. You know for like, " he pointed to Vicki and Henry, "those who marry "outside"
"We're not married, officially anyway." Vicki said, Henry looked at her with just sting of hurt in his eyes. Knowing Vicki was so upset, he let is slide but would discuss this with her later.
Mike decided silence was golden. He was more worried about finding Kate and M.J.
"Okay, Fairy Boy, " Henry and Vicki shot him a look simultaneously, "sorry, CLARK, we know who and probably why, now where?"
Clark shrugged his shoulders. "No idea but I bet Henry knows someone who could help."
Henry cocked his head, then it hit him, "Werewolves..."
