She is back. And we are almost finished.
"Ahhhh!" Melinda screeched, the rings of sound almost visible as the waves of sound deafened the attacking demons.
"I don't remember there being this many!" Dean shouted to Jessica.
"There weren't!" Jessica hissed curling around him and beating her wings up and sinking her venomous fangs into the demon.
"Great they are getting reinforcements!" Dean growled.
"All we have to do is get the Mace," Sam said firing rock salt into the bombardment of demons.
"Easier said than done, bro!" Dean shouted, swinging a sword that Lindsey had made for him killing three demons in the process.
"You have no idea!" Jessica shouted slamming her tail into a group of three stopping the swarm from attacking her mate.
"Where's Melinda!" Sam yelled noticing his red-haired protector was nowhere to be found on the battlefield.
"Flee!" Jessica shouted spreading her wings and shooting back up to the sky to search for the girl.
"I don't see her anywhere!" the nyx cried from her flight up above them.
"Damnit, Melinda!" Sam shouted diving headlong into the fray of charging demons.
He called out to her via their link and was just about to again when she replied.
I'm in! she called back through the link I am in the nest. I can get the mace just hold them off! And try not to get hit by any weapons I think they are all like the mace!
Be careful! Sam called ducking an attack.
I'm not Lindsey, you do NOT have to tell me that she said giving off a little screech as she ducked around a corner in the demons nest.
The siren padded silently as she could down the corridors of the office building, her senses on high alert for any sign of demon. Her voice was ready to give a sonic note and her fists were clenched white around the lyre's base.
Melinda snuck down the halls sending out an inaudible sound that would strike an object and send back waves to tell her where and what was in front of her. A little trick she picked up from the dolphins back home.
She was almost all the way down the hall when she heard footsteps behind her. With a squeak of startled fear she dove into a darkened room.
"Did you sense something?" asked a female voice as the footsteps stopped just outside the door. Melinda almost panicked but sent out a seven note tune on her lyre that distracted the demons from walking into her hiding spot.
"No it must have been nothing," replied the she-demons male companion as their footsteps receded. Melinda sighed sliding down against the door and trying to will her racing heart to slow down from its breakneck pace.
She opened her tightly shut eyes and saw her prize sitting there in the middle of the room, Lindsey's blood still staining and rusting the metal.
A prize.
I found it she called.
Melinda inched forward reaching out to the weapon. The siren was opposed to weapons of any sort, being a hippie. She reached forward and closed her eyes taking the handle of the mace and grabbed it.
And ran. She ran like all hell broke loose and ducked and dodged around demons who were to stunned to do anything other than stare at the siren running with a lyre in one hand and their mace prize in the other.
It took the demons a moment to realize what was going on but by the time they did the frightened siren had already made it outside and, with her eyes closed in fear, started swinging the mace back and forth like a madwoman.
"She's got it! Let's go!" Sam called to his brother. Jessica glanced up from the demon she was fighting and saw the timid siren swinging the mace back and forth, almost falling from the weight of it throwing her slight frame off kilter.
"Melinda! This way!" Jessica cried.
The girl peeked her eye open and her knuckles turned a little whiter at the fear of everything. "I can't move!" she cried.
"Damn!" Jessica cursed spinning and flying toward her clan sister. "Hang on, Sis!"
Jessica swooped through the mob of angry possessed humans and grabbed Melinda's arms and flew high into the sky.
"Oh my GOD!" Melinda screamed clutching desperately to Jessica's arms.
"What are you freaking about? You have flown before!" Jessica yelled.
"Yeah on Hephestus's back!" Melinda screamed back.
"Oh chill I won't drop you," Jessica retorted.
I got Mindy, babe. Get outta there! Jessica mindspoke to her husband We'll meet up when we get out of range.
"Call Hephestus!" Jessica called down to her frantic passenger.
Moments later there was a screech and the phoenix flew underneath the two at full growth almost the size of young Draka (about the size of two horses now). Melinda was lowered gently onto his back and fisted her hands in the bright orange and yellow feathers.
The two supernatural creatures flew to the limits of the large city just above the brothers in their Impala. The siren clung desperately to the demon weapon in her hand hoping. Praying that it would prove useful in helping her clan-sister.
"Do you think we will make it?" she asked Jessica.
"Of course."
"Do you think it will help her?"
"I don't know."
"Jess…"
"Yeah?"
"I am worried."
"It's gonna be okay, Mindy," Jessica said beating her strong wings, "It has to be."
Well here is another chapter in our lovely story. We have one last chapter and it is a heartbreaker.
