Healing
Summary: Isabelle Taylor came from a long line of witches, part of the original 6 founding families of Ipswich, Massachusetts. She grew up with the boys and always knew she'd be their salvation. Every 100 years a female is born into her family, and when she ascends all of those she wills her protection to will feel no side effects of Using. Set in the movie and afterwards.
"Caleb, can I talk to you for a second?" Izzy asked quietly as Caleb detached himself from Sara after practice. Caleb looked down at Izzy and noticed her nervous posture and her wringing hands.
"Of course, I'll see you later Sara." He kissed the girl goodbye and pulled Izzy with him to an empty alcove. "What's wrong Izzy? You're freaking me out with how nervous you are."
"I might be crazy Caleb, but I swear just before you hit your head Chases eyes were black, like entirely black." Izzy stared at Caleb hoping he wouldn't think she was going insane.
"We've got to call Pogue, I thought I saw it too, but after I hit my head I wasn't sure. We need to do some digging on Chase Collins." Caleb pulled out his phone dialing Pogue as him and Izzy made their way towards the administration office.
"What's going on that I needed to rush out on Kate?"
"It's Chase, we're sure it's him who's been using." Pogue looked at both of them before nodding his head.
"If you're sure, then let's figure out how it's possible." The three of them broke into the administration office and rifled for Chase's file. It was Izzy who remembered that Agnus Goodwin Pope was the Goody Pope who testified against John Putnam.
"If this is true, then that means Chase must have killed his adopted parents the night he ascended. Call Tyler and Reid we need to meet, now."
Pogue pulled out his phone calling the other two as he hoped on his bike. All five of them met up and made their way to the ancient meeting place.
"This can't be happening, the fifth line died out how is this possible?" Reid questioned as the three filled Tyler and him in.
"If Goody Pope carried on the Putnam line, then the fifth line has been around all this time, just hiding." Caleb filled in looking over at Izzy who nodded along.
"It makes sense, Chase is older and already ascended, and he'd be able to feel all of our powers. Also, John Putnam died before Eliza Taylor was born, the first female of the covenant."
"So that means Chase has no idea about Izzy?" Tyler asked.
"Considering she hasn't used in his presence, I'd guess not, he wouldn't be looking for a girl." Caleb explained.
They all fell silent until the ringing of Caleb's phone broke it. "Caleb! Kate's sick, like really sick. They say it's like she's been bitten by hundreds of spiders or something. I'm freaking out Caleb, something strange is going on!" Sara's voice was on the other line.
"I need you to calm down Sara, go back to your dorm and wait for me there okay?"
Caleb sighed tapping his phone against his leg as he looked at the four faces staring at him. "It's Kate, Chase went after her. He put a creation spell on her, spiders."
"What!" Pogue jumped up making his way to the stairs.
"Pogue, you need to calm down we need to figure out what he wants!" Izzy cried as she went after Pogue.
"This is Kate we're talking about Izzy." He revved his bike and sped out as Izzy raced back down the stairs to get the boys to follow after him.
The other four made it too late and quickly called an ambulance for Pogue. Caleb made his way to the school stating that he'd meet the others at the hospital but he needed to check on Sara.
"C'mon Izzy hop in the Hummer we'll follow the ambulance back." Izzy pulled the door open and the three made a silent journey back to the hospital. An older nurse made her way over asking for family.
"I'm his sister."
"Well I'll need you to fill out these forms for him; I can set you up in the waiting room and let the doctor tell you when he can have visitors." Izzy smiled at the nurse claiming her spot between the two boys before she broke down.
Reid wrapped his arms around her holding her close to his chest, "shh Belle, he's going to be fine, and everything is going to be fine."
Izzy gripped Reid tightly as she calmed her tears looking up at him with water eyes. "How can it? Caleb ascends on Saturday and the rest of us don't follow for months, he's too strong for us we can't beat him." Tyler squeezed her should and stood up to answer Caleb's call.
"Caleb is on his way with Sara, she knows now because Chase went after her impersonating Caleb. The nurse told me we can see Pogue, and Caleb wants us watching over him anyways."
The other two nodded following Tyler down the hall to where a semi- conscious Pogue lay. "Go in Izzy, we'll watch the door from out here; we don't want to overwhelm him."
Izzy made her way to Pogue kissing his cheek as he smiled slightly. "Pogue, I-"
Caleb made his way in the door at that moment and wrapped his arm around Izzy as he spoke softly to Pogue, "Did Chase do this?"
"He's powerful man, like more powerful than I've ever seen before."
"It's his father; he willed Chase his power to get revenge. Don't worry about this now, just worry about getting better, we'll keep you safe." The two made their way back over to Reid and Tyler who straightened at their entrance.
"How is he?" Tyler asked looking worriedly at Pogue through the window.
"He's hurting pretty bad, Chase is stronger than any of us could have imagined. I want you guys to watch his room for now, make sure Chase doesn't get near him I'll be back once I check on Sara and Kate." The three nodded making themselves comfortable as they set out to protect their brother.
