Chap 4. Last chapter
She leads the girl inside. " This is my father house."
"Your father!?" Tori turns behind to look at me with a surprise face.
"Dolce is inside with Derek." Then she turns over to me, "Dad, this is Derek's sister and also my friend, Tori."
The girl didn't hesitate to run over to the baby when she saw her. "Dolcy, how are you? Were you scared of that big meanie wizard?" Then she smiles dearly at Dolce. "Don't worry, aunty already beat the crap out of him."
Derek steps out with a not-so-happy face. "Tori, I hope your keep your vulgar language from Dolce, we talked about this."
"What? It's not like you were a goody-two-shoes," She turns to Dolce again. "Aunty is so happy that my cute Dolce didn't take anything from your scary, anti-social daddy." Tori satisfied laughing.
"Now, now, don't fight. Dolce doesn't like it when you guys fight." Chloe slowly comes closer and takes her daughter from Tori's arms.
"Yea, we don't have time for this" Tori ends it with last of her deadly stares then continue to me. "By the way, did that spell leaves behind any damage?"
"Spell?" Derek twitches his eye browns.
"Yea...that coward! He didn't except his defeat and blow his last spell to Chloe..." Tori continues. "Even after Chloe resolved his misunderstanding with his dead friends with her power."
Derek immediately squeezes Chloe's shoulders and began to observe and sniffs to see if she is ok.
"Derek...you are hurting me..." Chloe groans.
He lets go of his hands and mumbles something like a "sorry".
"It's true the spell hit me but I just felt dizzy and after a nice sleep I return normal again." Chloe tries to calm Derek down.
"What are you guys saying?" I step with a big confusion.
"Dad!" Chloe panic covers her mouth. She seems to forget that I was here.
Suddenly, Dolce starting to cry very loud and strangely she won't stop no matter what Chloe does. Derek started to worry too so he checks Dolce's forehead for temperature but it's still normal. He flinched as he raises his nose up high a little and took a deep breath. He looks over to Dolce with shocked eyes but then shakes his head like it was wrong and turns back to Chloe.
"We got company." He whispered.
"Is it Simon?" Chloe hopes he would say yes but this time they weren't so lucky any more...
Derek shakes his head, "No, it's the people from Edison." He rubs Chloe's cold hand.
"And they brought with them some damn wizards and witches too!" Tori shouted, "We need to leave! Like now!"
"Not so fast cutie ~" A playful sound coming from a guy that appears from nowhere before Tori.
Tori's voice became deep like speaking from the bottom of her throat, a sound like cursing slipped out of her mouth. "Leon..."
The guy smiles devilish at her, "glad you still remember my name honey ~"
"Don't bring out your 'sweet-talked' out here you damn vampire!" Tori prepares a light ball at her hand already, "How did the Edison find us out so fast?"
"He's from Edison!?" Chloe shocked.
"He is and the most annoying one too." Tori said it ironically.
"That makes me hurt dear Tori," He smiles while steals a stroke at Tori's hair, of course she resists but too late. "But come on, did you think they would find you guys out that fast? Not in this amazing barrier your brother Simon made. I track you down myself...I don't know, Telepathy?" He jokily laughs.
Tori took a relief sighs, "Or this is the only area with a 'hidden spell' barrier, come on, we need to leave fast."
"Oh right! I remember something!" Leon turns to another person behind Tori that was leaving through the door. "Yea! Necro girl! My friend seems to be under your care a while ago he said something he wanted me to transfer to you...it's 'Sorry'"
Chloe stands still then continue walking out of the door in Derek's arms.
"Oh and by the way, he also said that the last spell he used on you is a 'tracking spell' so as soon as that spell activate the Edison knows where you are too! It activates like in half a day and it only works once so don't worry...wait isn't that like now?" The guy passes like a joke.
Without any notice, a big rumbling sound like explosion hits the house.
"Oops...I guess that's the cue, well I only care about Tori. Don't want her to get caught." He picks Tori up like a princess despite her struggle, "So good luck guys!" and Leon vanishes like he was never there, so is Tori.
Seeing the house began to rumble, I rush Chloe to get out of here soon but I soon regret my action because the way where is she running to the door, there is a big plaster falling off from the celling right about to her head. She saw it but she knows it will be too late to avoid it so she face it with her back and covers her daughter in her hand.
"CHLOE!" I didn't think of anything and just jump to her hoping it's in time and I don't care how hurt it can be, even death. Before I knew it, I was on her and waiting for the rumbling to stop.
The pain must be really great and fast because I don't even feel any pain, just a feeling of getting crush a little. So I look up and surprise that what I see is not a big heavy plaster but a large body covering us.
"Dad! Are you ok?" Chloe voice filled with worry and she checks to see if my back is ok with her hand.
"Are you ok?" A voice whispered on me.
"Derek!" A happy voice came from Chloe underneath me.
They both hug each other after Derek helped her to stand up. He was sniffing around her like to find what's wrong with her.
"Oh geez! You got to be a lot more careful than that! What if you get hurt?" Chloe slightly makes a fake slap with both of her hand to him and whispered by his ear, it was small but I can hear it. "What am I suppose to do if something happen to you?"
A deep hoarse voice surprise me, like it was make in bottom deep of his throat. "I'm ok...let's go..."
Chloe shocked. "Derek! You are..."
He stops her with a strong squeeze on her waist and hurries her to be faster. She turns back to me, she gave me the longest hug she could and let me see her brightest smile before she left.
Watching her go, I no longer saw that cute naive little girl years ago and what I see now is a much stronger girl who has the courage to stand up for herself and the people around her.
Her last voice before she left is still fresh for me now. "I love you dad. Goodbye and be well."
After that, a lot happen. Like the people gather to see why the house was crumble to almost a half and a lot of troublesome things that needed to deal with but now it all done.
I didn't see my daughter again from then on but I didn't feel insecure like before. She is an adult now. She knows how to take care of herself and she is even stronger now to protect her beloved people.
Look above the blue sky I remember her blue eyes, those crystal eyes are gentle yet straight forward just like her mother. Seeing Chloe grown up strongly like this now Jennifer couldn't more proud. As for me, I am worry about but thinking now the new Chloe now with her friends can overcome the hardships.
-The end-
Thank you for reading until the end =)))
